(A German broadcast said one allied pilot was "lynched" by vil lagers in central Germany after a "large group of civilians who were on their way to church "were strafed by low flying air craft." The broadcast denied a story published yesterday by Af tonbladet from its Berlin corre spondent that five American air men had been "lynched" in Ger many "by agitated people." There was no confirmation of any of the stories of lynching.) Assaulted ' Aftonbladet's- - story today, which came through German censorship from - Correspondent Granberg, said the American flier lynched Monday was as saulted by an infuriated crowd of villagers who struck him with their weapons until he was lying dead in his blood. - - Aftonbladet's dispatch did not say whether the airman was one of the five airmen reported in yesterday's story as having been lynched. .... ;. (Af tonbladet is listed-by the political handbook of the world as having "nazi tendencies.") Children Wounded ' Quoting a purported eyewit ness, without stating how the in terview was obtained, Aftonblad et's dispatch said the lynching of tne llier occurred in a village in Brandenburg after "enemy planes raided the neighborhood wounding several children. "Not far from the village an American plane was shot down and the villagers could see that one of the crew parachuted," the eyewitness was quoted.. "A large crowd of inhabitants -rushed to the plane and found an Ameri can lieutenant. "That's "War" 1 "The - crowd was ready to as sault the American with-different weapons when a man forced himself between the American and the crowd saying. He is a soldier,, anyway.1 The . crowd drew back for a moment and a German who knew a little Ene lish asked the American.

Follows Propaganda The story followed closely the pattern ot propaganda ground work laid by Nazi Propaganda Minister Paul Joseph Goebbels last week. The lack of details regarding circumstances of the eyewitness interview indicated the account should be treated with the greatest reserve. Aftonbladet commented edi torially today on the story it carried yesterday of the report ed lynching of five American air. men by "agitated people." The - newspaper declared, "that Judge Lynch has appeared in Germany shows that desperation has taken , hold." - - .i Nail Orders . The newspaper said it had the Impression that the incident was , the direct result of nazl orders and pointed to a recent article , by Goebbels in .which the pro-1 paganda minister said the nazl -government could no longer pro tect allied airmen from mobs.
