GERMANS IN FRANCE
THOUSANDS OF TROOPS POURED IN COLLECTION OF WAR MATERIAL. AMERICAN CORRESPONDENT'S REPORT. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. (Received This Day, 11.10 a.m.) LONDON. June 26. An American correspondent who toured the war sectors south and west of Paris found the Germans pouring thousands of troops into the area they are now occupying. They are normalising civilian life in cities and districts around the main roads. He saw long lines of German convoys moving rapidly. A labour corps is removing the evidences of the French withdrawal. The Germans are sweeping the streets of many villages and piling abandoned military equipment in heaps along the pavement. Hundreds of thousands of French were taken prisoner in the Orleans-Tours region.
