DEATH SENTENCE
Flemish Collaborator BRUSSELS, July 19. Auguste Borms, aged 77, the Flemish Nationalist leader, has been sentenced to death for the second time in his life, by a court-martial. Borms, after the last war, was sentenced to death for his pro-German activities, but he was granted a reprieve after several years’ imprisonment. Borms is now believed to be hiding in the Sudetenland. He was found guilty in absentia of receiving several million francs from the Germans for his services in both wars.
