LONDON, Saturday, June 27 (JP)-An unusually well-informed foreign source said today that Adolf Hitler is being urged by his military commanders to "arrange" the occupation of all France to off set the projected "second front" invasion of Europe by the United Nations. This source declared that the report came through the same "trustworthy underground chan nels which disclosed that guns from the Maginot line and Sieg fried line are being moved to the English channel coast for defense fortifications." In addition, Hitler has shaken up his military command, replac ing 26 division commanders in the last three or four weeks, it was said.
