Netherlands, Prime Minister Dcrck
Jan De Gccr told his nation that mar
tial law, already in effect in cOnSld-
cradle areas, would be extended TO
the whole country and proclaimed
that it would resist with arms any
attempt of outside powers TO extend
protective help to it.

The report said that the Germans
had been repulScd.
The usual military secrecy hid the
