GERMAN MOVE
BRITISHERS IN PARIS. (United Press Association —By Electric Telegraph—Copyright) LONDON, December 6. A “Times” correspondent who lately was in France, declares: “All British subjects in Paris to the age of 65 years are gathered at concentration camps, of which the principal is at St. Denis. Even a septuagenarian, Colonel Shaw, for many years honorary president of the British Red Cross in. Paris, was hustled off to camp. He was released, but only after a week of unhappy treatment. A changed German attitude to American citizens has been noticeable in recent weeks, German officials continually inspecting their property and houses, and also constantly visiting the American hospital in Paris, where there are sixty French and twenty British soldiers. Several British wounded have already been taken to the prison camps, despite protests by an American doctor in charge of the hospital.
