NAZI CIVILIANS IN PARIS
TRAINED TO ASSIST ARMY New York, Aug. 30. The Stockholm correspondent of the “New York Times” says that 100,000 German civilians employed in various Reich administrations in Paris are being trained in street lighting and other forms of partisan warfare, according to persons just arrived from Paris. French army rifles are used in the training which is designed to make the civilians valuable adjuncts to the army in case of a general French uprising.
The exercises are held openly every Sunday in Boulogne and Vincennes parks at which the Germans encourage Parisians to attend with the idea of impressing them.—P.A.
