ENSLAVED DUTCH
(Received October 18, 9 p.m.) LONDON, October 17.
Dr. Bocning, the German 'Commissar for Manpower in Holland, has demanded 70,000 skilled Dutch workers for Germany to reinforce the 300,000 Dutch already in Germany. Thirty thousand skilled Dutch metal-workers were removed from their jobs last month and sent to Germany. Skilled Dutchmen are conscripted by the German foremen who had been appointed to the Dutch undertakings as “trustees” for the workmen. The skilled workers are being replaced 'by unskilled part-time workers and unemployed, of which Boening estimates there are still 100,000.
