These trimmings go into sausage

In addition, he said the supply of

Within two weeks when the new

the Nations butcher shops and

Vichy Tension Is Heightened
BY Seizure of 300 Americans
Friend of Windsor
Among Potential
Nozi Hostages

By the Associated Press.
BERN, Switzerland, Sept. 28.-
The Germans have seized about
300 Americans in Occupied
Frame as potential hostages
diplomatic quarters here learned
today, in a move which added to
the tension in Pierre Lavals
government in Vichy.
News of the seizures came from
private sources in Paris. American
diplomatic sources were without Off
cial word, but it caused no surprise
since Americans in the occupied
zone are liable to internment by the
Nazis as enemy aliens.
Those held were Americans who
for one reason or another remained
in Occupied France pending ncgo-
tiations for their repatriation. 1t
was assumed that If repatriation
were permitted the Germans would
ask for the return of an equal
number of Germans in the United
States.
The Embassy at Vichy awaited
further reports with interest, but
is making no investigation since
American interests in the occupied
zone are handled by the Swiss and
thus are in the province of the
American Legation at Bern.
