ALSACE PEASANTS FARM HERDED BACK TO F Refugees Rounded Up In Southern France by Nazis Allegiance Wooed. 3 IN LAST Basel, Switzerland, July S. (P) Ten thousand German (peaking farmers and peasants of Alsace and Lorraine have re turned to their homes from southern France. It was learned today, although isolated French units in those provinces were reported still resisting nazi troops. The vanguard of 700 was led by pro-German Alsatians and officers of the German army of occupation. The officers and civilian aides rounded up groups in a refugee center in southern France to be repatriated to the provinces which were ruled by "jermany from 1871 to the end of the world war. Constant Flow Since Sunday, there has been constant flow back into the frontier regions, where fields had stood deserted tangles of weeds and tall grass since the atart of the war In September. French sources said the Ger mans are paying especial atten tion to Alsace and Lorraine in habitants In an effort to win them over before peace terms which may re-incorporate their provinces Into the relch. Some of the communities had been scenes of bitter battles, although many Maginot forts in the open country were occupied without fighting after the arm istice. Other towns were un touched by actual fighting but were wrecked in dynamiting of roads and bridges by retreating troops. French Uninformed The National Zeltung of Basel related that a Swiss citizen, af ter obtaining German permis sion to visit his farm across the border, was met Monday by a French sentry and con ducted at gunpoint to a captain commanding an isolated fort. The Swiss showed the cap tain the permit and a Basel newspaper article of the end of French resistance. The offi cer turned away with tears streaming down his cheeks say ing "No, no. It cannot be true!" This Swiss said the whole de tachment believed the Rhine river forts were still intact. Communications had been cut 10 days previously by German motorized units.
