came Jewish woman gone mad and
screaming, her hair famed out in
the snarling wind, her fine dark
face fixed on the closed barrier
with the immobility Of hopelessness.
There were dozen Spanish gypsies
in a cart on the uproad where the
sweep of the storm was most vio-

stoical in wretchedness. save for one

The gold-haired grenadiers of The

In the square in front of the Hotel

retrospect you have difficulty con-

drilled as a group and presumably
died as a group. clean-faced. fine
looking youngsters who paraded
without rifles, maneuvered without
artillery tore down street signs as
matter Of strategy and cherished
an abiding faith in miracles. Only
one of couple of regiments of these
freshly scrubbed troopers stands out
in recollection. Memory gives all
of them the same face as it gives
them all the same impractical uni
form--the face of faith and eager
youth-but he stands apart because
he was voice.
Hitler Wouldn't Dare
You remember his ringing words
as you might remember an inspired
priest reciting an article of faith:
THE water defenses will protect Hol-
land -. If the Nazis should dare
to attack their tanks would bog
down and their mechanical troops
would lose their way. With no SOL
diers at all. it would take Hitler
months to conquer our country - -"

possibility OF that lads being alive.
We have seen the pictures of what
happened to Holland.
And what became of the tidal
wave of beaten, frightened people
tossed up against the gate of Spain
on that horrible night when the
Germans pressed down on the end
OF the road that led from Paris?
Whatever else betide that night
shall be recreated time after time
in ghastly and unfading detail so
long as those who were there shall
have bad dreams.
Thousands of people had come

queues before the customs office on
the French side. They had been
standing there for days. On the
International Bridge to Irun was q
chaos of dead traffic. Over the hill
were the Germans, pounding me-
thodically over the highway toward
this final inch of France. And on
top Of everything came a summer
tempest. rain and a cold, wet wind.
Facing it, you needed little imagina-

He may have got out of Spain, or
