REGISTRATION ORDER
NAZIS & FORMER DUTCH ARMY RESISTANCE ENJOINED. BY GOVERNMENT IN EXILE. (British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, April 30. Th 3 Radio Orange, on the authority of the Dutch Government in London broadcast strongly-worded advice to Holland to disregard the German instructions that all officers, n.c.o’s. and men of the former Dutch Army are to register preparatory to being sent back to prison of war camps. Radio Orange described this as “the most serious attack ever made by the Germans on the Dutch people.’’ and warned that “only mass resistance and a mass refusal to* register can be successful.” It was added that the order probably was due to growing resistance in Holland, against the Nazis and to a shortage of manpower in Germany, Those who registered would:—(1) Sooner or later be transferred to German prison camps; (2) forced to work in Germany: (3) forced to form a kind of military legion under the leadership of .German, officers or Dutch traitors for poice services somewhere in Europe.
