CAPTIVE OFFICERS
NAZIS WITHDRAW SPECIAL PRIVILEGES
AN ALLEGED REPRISAL.
“UNDIGNIFIED TREATMENT” OF GERMANS.
(British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, May 27.
The German military spokesman in Berlin has announced that Germany has withdrawn special privileges accorded to Allied officers taken prisoner, including the customary right to receive the salute, because of “undignified treatment” meted out to German officers who are prisoners in the Allied countries. It is authoritatively stated in London that the German officers who are prisoners of war in Britain are given all rights and treated with every courtesy.
