DESERTERS ORGANIZE
TO PROTECT THEMSELVES
(By United Press.)
BERNE, Oct. 5. (By Mail.) One
of the strangest organizations on rec
ord is forming in Switzerland an as
sociation of military deserters de
signed to protect their "interests."
Military deserters from belligerent
nations surrounding Switzerland over
run the country. Their presence con
stitutes a growing embarrassment to
the government and proposals have
been advanced to round them up in an
internment camp. ,
Alarmed by such reports, the de
serters have been inserting advertise
ments in Swiss newspapers, calling
upon all comrade slackers to "form
an international organization." The
organization committee consists of
Germans, Austrians and Bulgarians.
