PARISIANS WERE FOOLED
A German military band was playing in the street of Paris and thousands of men and women wore listening. Suddenly the music stopped. In the resulting dead silence, a voice, shouted from the loud speaker, “ Those who do not speak German raise their hands,” and because virtually nobody spoke Gorman, thousands of hands were raised. A flash, and all were photographed standing there, arms apparently raised in the Hitler salute.— Columbia Broadcasting System.
