German Demand For French Labor Step In "Slave" Plan
Berlin correspondent Dean Graffis reports on Nazi plans to force 150000 French workers to volunteer for Germany, part of a broader program using prisoners of war and conquered peoples to fuel the Reich. He notes four million wartime workers from occupied nations, including Russians, and questions how voluntary these schemes truly are. The piece cites use of war prisoners as bargaining chips and traces employment trends from the Netherlands after its 1940 surrender, illustrating the coercive labor system underpinning Nazi aims.
