The German high command's secret plan for the administra tion of England, which called for the deportation to the con tinent of the male population between the ages of 17 and 45, now is in British hands. The red-bound 23-page manu script disclosed that Adolf Hit ler planned to complete the oc cupation of England before Sep tember 9, 1941) and the trans formation of the country and its resources into Germany's main war workshop. English industry under nazi direction was to turn out wea pons for only one obvious ob jective the battle of Russia. The blueprint for England in defeat was mapped the year be fore the nazis invaded Russia by a staff of German adminis tration experts wonting unoer the direct guidance of Field Marshal Walther von Brauch- itsch, former commander-in-chief of the German army, and Gen. Franz Haider, chief of staff of the high command. Only 195 copies of the plan were printed and 78 were dis tributed to high nazi authorities and army officials. The remain der were reserved for the high command's archives. The plan was one of the most secret docu ments of the high command. The copy now in British hands was believed to be the only one of its kind still in existence. Designed to prevent sabotage, the deportation provision pre sumably meant that the English men would have been farmed out on the continent as slave laborers while German workers were rushed-to England to keep the war machine operating with a minimum of interference. England was to be divided into districts in charge of army com manders who were to have field and town units under them. Under the list of administra tive regulations the plan pro vided that any person in Eng land impeding the German war effort by starting hostilities was to be treated as a guerrilla and shot. Hostages were to be taken as a "security" measure. Na tional laws in force prior to the German invasion were to be maintained only if they were not "contrary to the purposes of the occupation." The country's state of health was to be considered important only as a safeguard for the re sources of the county and the nazi troops. A non-fraternization policy on a limited scale was to be inforccd. Death sentences were to be assessed against persons who failed to turn in all radio trans mitting apparatus and spare part;i. A sunset to sunrise cur few, strict blackout regulations and a firm minimum rationing system were to be enforced. Looting and violence against the population were to be classed as military court of fenses punishable by death. The regulations also stated that mon uments were to be protected. The German penal code, provid ing for executions by capitation with an ax or guillotine, was to be enforced. Three cotton-growing states; Arizona, Florida, and New Mex ico have no cotton-spinning mills. ATTENTION FARMERS We pay highest cash prices for LIVE or DRESSED POUL TRY.
