| PARIS, (By air courier to Berlin) |Sept. 9 (Delayed) (U. P).~The | Paris area has 300,000 unemployed —more than all France had in |normal times—and some of them

are getting restless, Andre Grisoni, president of the Seine Department Mayors’ Union, said today in an interview. He said that antil some plan for industrial revival had been worked out and approved by German authorities, it would be “disastrous” to have Germany release all French war prisoners or to demobilize all French soldiers, adding them to the unemployed “Already there is much unrest, especially among Communist groups | of workers,” he said In the industrialized north of | France, part of the German-oc-|cupied area, work revival is being {hampered by lack of facilities for [transporting fuel, and the refugee problem, he said According to German figures, 10,000,000 persons evacuated north France when the May 10 offensive |began. Grisoni said many did not (return, and that among those who ldid, or who never left, were radicais now trying to foment violence. “This is bad for France,” he said. “Many agitators are skilled workers with better than average education —sort of intelligentsia. We have to watch their movements to prevent 1 repetition of the Popular Front | regime uprisings | In the Paris area, he said, there was much criticism among workers | over the closing of suburban cafes fat 8:30 p. m., but that the measure was essential “because of unfortunate incidents against German soldiers.’ The chief of the German Army's Agriculture Department today told a group of American correspondents that occupied France would “not starve,” this winter but that no doubt the situation will be very erious
