STORM TROOPERS IN PARIS
Nazification Of Occupied France (Rec. 9.18 p.m.) LONDON, June 17. 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 the defence of the national popular party,” but they were more likely to be used to march against Vichy should the German demands be refused.
