OUT SIDE GENEVA, Aug. 23.—
{One of the most popular men {among the maquis troops today is | a tall, blond American named Capt.
“Niveau” who comes from the
| state of Montana. The captain has tage of this propa- | been living the life of the maquis 8anda has been | since he parachuted into French
territory some days ago. 1 met Capt. Niveau in Annecy where 40,000 French folk were cel-
| ebrating the liberation of their:
town by the “terrorists” as the Germans and their Vichyite puppets were wont to describe the maquis. He proudly introduced me to “my commandos—some of the best.”
There were 50 young lads, many!
of them battle scarred. They were preparing to embark on trucks for a new assignment. The captain said that when he first arrived at the maquis camp one of the boys was shoeless but when Niveau offered to find a pair of shoes for him he said, “give me arms. I can do without shoes.”
Plays Heroic Role
Capt. Niveau, who is shy about
i talking about himself, is an impor-
tant figure among the maquis. He
played, together with Capt. Canti‘nier, the representative of Gen. Josleph Pierre Koenig, commander of
the French forces of the interior, an important part in the capture of a little neighboring town of Le Fayet. The German officer in charge of Le Fayet refused to surrender to the partisans. Capt. Niveau sent four Frenchmen dressed as Canadian soldiers, Whose English was as vague as their uniforms, as |emissaries to warn the wehrmacht officer that the Americans, (wgether with their maquis allies, were ready to attack. The German thought the Americans had already reached Haute-Savoie and he surrendered, ‘There was a great deal of emotion

Done striking bit Miss Kirkpatrick of propaganda was put out by the Germans in a four-page leaflet, the covers of which were identical to those dropped by the royal air force. It states on the cover: “This comes from your friends, the R. A. I.” | But the picture above the inscrip[tion is that of a bombed cathedral, [captioned, “to avenge persecuted | Jews, R. A.

_ THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES Nazi Propaganda in France Still Aimed at Russ, Jews
: By HELEN KIRKPATRICK : Times Foreign Correspondent SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE, Aug. 23.—German propaganda dissemi. nated either by the Nazis themselves, or by pro-German Frenchmen, is chiefly anti-Semitic and anti-Communist and though sometimes skill fully composed has completely misfired with the French. A study of leaflets, books and posters put out by the propagandists,
Jews. French authors have produced
film industry employees and .90 per cent of the grain dealers were Jews, the leaflet says. Like German Jews, the French were required under German occupation, to wear a yellow patch with the black star of David. The old chestnut, “the protocols of the elders of Zion” also was resurrected for’the French,
Blast Communism
Other books set forth the relation between world Jewry and th comintern. : Anti-red propaganda shares the limelight in German propaganda with anti-Jewish. French authors have made their contributions on the dangers of communism with Isuch titles as “bolshevism isn't so|cialism.” The Katyn massacres have been played up to show what evil men the Russians are under such titles
| ‘as’ “communism means a common
|grave.” For .the benefit of the 'peasants there was a lurid booklet | Jewish shops with a table showing depicting the life of slavery of the
