LONDON, April 24.-New dis
closures of Nazi atrocities appeared
today as western front dispatches
reported the Germans recently had
force-marched thousands of Amer
ican and British prisoners toward
Hitler's national redoubt area for
possible use as hostages.
Column after column of Allied
prisoners passed through the Saal-
field area in Thuringia until a day
or two before American Sd Army
troops captured the town of Saal-
field, front advices said.
An American Air Force lieuten-
ant liberated by the Sd Army troops
q few hours before he was to be
executed by the Germans said he
saw Nazi SIS guard shoot two
prisoners who collapsed during a
march OF $4,000 American Air Force
oficers toward the Moosburg pris-
on camp near Munich.
The lieutenant had escaped from
the line of march, had been retaken
by Volksturmers and turned over to
SIS officers who had ordered him
shot.
Meanwhile, a leading Paris physi-
clan charged that many French war
prisoners were left sterile by brutal
treatment in German concentration
camps.
The physician said it was possible
that the Germans introduced into
the food of the prisoners substances
of "antivitamin E. action"
From the Soviet Embassy in Lon
