ATTACK BY NAZIS
ON VICHY INCOMPETENTS DAMAGING REVELATIONS & CHARGES. BY CONTROLLED PARIS RADIO. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) LONDON. May 28. The whole of France is rising in opposition to the Vichy Government's mismanagement of the exchange of French war prisoners for workers in German factories, says the Nazi-con-trolled Paris radio. Incompetent authorities sent thousands of aged and sick to Germany, while young, rich men escaped conscription by bribery and string-pulling. The whole country is disgusted and confusion reigns everywhere. Workers on jobs essential for the national life have been spirited to Germany and every Frenchman knows that the incompetent Vichy authorities have landed the country in this muddle. (The Paris radio has been campaigning against Vichy, particularly on the food situation, and these accusations from German-controlled Paris may mean that the Germans find Vichy too slow in carrying out their orders and are preparing the ground for some extremist like Deal.)
