Meanwhile. reports reaching Berlin confirm the reported Wholesale conscription of lab our and motor transport wherever required by the mill- tary authorities, who are now taking extraordinary steps to obtain labour for the construc-" tion of border fortifications, oping in not only active brick- layers, carpenters and builders but many who have previously done such work.

People who have been conscrip- ted are grumbling at being separa- ted from their families and having to leave their jobs so suddenly and also complain of the scale of pay. There is no arguing, however, with a court martial—(Reuter),
