MISERY IN FRANCE
HORRORS OF CONCENTRATION CAMPS NEW DEVELOPMENT OF NAZI SAVAGERY. BARBAROUS TREATMENT OF COLONIAL TROOPS. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) LONDON. July 3. Joseph Luhan, an American ambulance worker, in a message from Paris, describes the horrors of the Nazi concentration camps in France. He says that tropical fever has stricken the colonial troops and is spreading rapidly. He saw 5000 French soldiers living in unbelievable filth in a camp at St Cloud. Many of the men slept under shelters made from branches and grass. The prisoners wore tattered uniforms and begged for bread. German doctors gave precedence to white cases, saying. “We must distinguish between black and white. The French must learn that, too.”
