ROUND-UP OF JEWS
Deportation From Occupied France (Received July 17, 11.30 p.m.) LONDON, July 16. The German radio announced that 20,000 Jews are being rounded up in occupied France for deportation to east Europe. The deportees are alien Jews from Germany, Austria, Poland and Czechoslovakia. A Vichy report states that a bomb exploded in a German-occupied building in Nantes on the night of July 15. Two gendarmes were shot dead near Nancy while chasing three so-called Communist agitators. Two were caught, and the third, an Italian, shot himself. Following the escape of 18 Communists from a Compeigne concentration camp, 1400 Communists were sent to an unknown destination in the east.
