NAZI POLICE RAIDS
MEN HIDING LN HOLLAND. Nightly raids made by special forces of German Security Police in different, cities in Holland have revealed to what extent both the order to hand in radio sets and the order to report for reinternment or labour service in Germany have failed. During these raids, which affected only a comparatively small part of the population of the cities, so many people were arrested for hiding radio sets and hiding men who had gone “underground” as to indicate that the German orders in Holland were practically ignored, and that the Germans had failed to have these orders carried out. One of the strongest points in the Dutch propaganda from England over Radio Orange and the BBC is that the Germans can never import sufficient police forces to Holland to have their orders completely carried out. On some farms as many as three or four Dutch students, soldiers and labourers were found in hiding.
