OCCUPIED FRANCE
NAZI METHODS COPIED POLICE REORGANISED (Rec. 8.30 p.m.) LONDON, June 16. "The appearance in Paris of M. Laval and the Government's own Storm Troopers carries the Nazification of occupied France a stage further," says the special correspondent of the. Daily Telegraph. "The Storm Troopers are styled the National Popular Legion, their formation coinciding with the reorganisation' of the Paris police on the Nazi model. It is explained that the Storm Troopers were formed ' for defence of the National Popular Party,' but they are more likely to be used to 'march against'Vichy should the German demands be refused."
