By Boyd Lewis United Press Correspondent Gerardmer, France, Nov. 28 (U.R) Gestapo Chief Heinrich Himmler came here Sept. 7 to confer with six generals and developed a sadistic fury when he. saw French youths enjoying themselves. That started a series of events which ended only when the ' Germans, with the methodical planning of a military campaign, burned and blasted 30 miles of the once beautiful Meurthe val ley which was doted with fine farms, homes and factories. . Sixty-year-old Mayor Andre Boucher told me about the crime today amid the charred ruins of the .town. Homes Detroyed Nearly all of the houses, whether clustered in hamlets or .isolated far up the mountain aides, were destroyed. . . ' The residents returned later and combed through the ruins, finding a pan here and a dish there. But there was nothing that could not be put in a sack and trundled away in a baby carriage practically the only vehicles remaining. The Germans had taken all of the carts, horses and bicycles to haul away the major household goods and possessions. "The story begins with Himm ler's visit Sept.' 7," Mayor Bouchet said. Himmler Angered "It was beautiful weather and Himmler went to the lake for a cold bath.- He saw boys and girls enjoying themselves at the baths. He was surprised and angered. '"How is if he demanded, that these French' youths are able to amuse themselves while the young men' of Germany fight for the fatherland?" " That night, the mayor said, a German soldier brought him an order, signed by Himmler, that every male from 14 to 60 must be assembled to build fortifica tions for the Germans. The or der warned that those who did not report were to be appre hended and , shot and if they could not be found their wives and children would be shot. "On Nov. 8, the Gestapo came and took all our men to the mountains," i.he continued. "It Was snowing but they had to walk 20 miles to work. About 600 were taken to the woods ' but when they learned the- Ges tapo planned to remove .them to Germany, 800 escaped. ' "On the 18th the Germans -I were gone and we were alone In our ruins. On the 19th the French arrived. There was no demonstration. We were glad to ee them but we could only ay: " What sorrow you could not have come a day or two soon er.'

London U.F9 Britain'! first announced entry in the postwar commercial airline competition was revealed here at a de luxe version of the KAF's famous Halifax bomber, designed for high-speed flight in the sub stratosphere with a maximum payload of 80 passengers or 16, 000 pounds of air freight. The new super-liner, on which performance details are now be ins releajulH fni tha flrct lima is the Handley-Page "Hermes," a sicy train wmcn its manufac turers expect will handle an im portant share of the world's 'round-the-ffloba air truncnnrti. tion business after the war.
