Sixty-Two Warships
Sunk In Harbor
By The Associated Press
LONDON, Nov. 27—Adolf Hitler grab-
bed the French Mediterranean base of Tou-
lon today, but Vichy broadcasts said every
one of the 62 French warships there scuttled
herself while Axis forces were being resisted
by Frenchmen defending the last uninvaded
soil of their homeland.
The Germans themselves admitted that
some of the French warships had been scut-
tled and that this latest breach of a Hitler
promise had encountered opposition.
The Nazi communique did not tell which
or how many of the French warships — in-
cluding three battleships — were sunk but a
Vichy broadcast recorded by Reuters an-
nounced:
“I>y orders of Admiral De LaBorde,
vessels of the French squadron at Toulon
scutt! ed themse 1 ves.
“At 10 a.m. there was not one vessel
afloat.”
At the moment that Nazi armored col-
umns entered Toulon at 4 a.m. today, said
t h< Vichy broadcast quoting a dispatch from
Marseille, “Admiral De LaBorde gave the
• h r to scuttle which was immediately car-
ried out.
Flan's from one big force of German bombers spot-
i. U the ships at their anchorages before dawn, it said,
while other bombers sowed magnetic mines to block the
i jadstoad entrance.
This sudden stroke, in violation of Hitler’s specific
i t . ii-i . provoked the first officially-recorded resistance
in the Germans In French armed forces on homesoil since
tin armistice of >mpiegne in 19-10.
It wa- the fin hid by Frenchman for their liberties,
for v. th it the hi ' trace of their sovereignty was obliter-
ate <1. the last spot of unoccupied motherland seized and
the win le eountiturned ov( r to Nazi military rule.
'1 he -udden stroke erased the last vestiges of France’s
ii1- rtie• i i iny the only remaining spot of unoccupied
trench homeland and turning the whole country over to
Nazi military rule.

That He will Not Give

A German communique
frankly attributed the step,

himself and Mussolini, to
fear of the growing Allied

refusal of French armed forces to
submit to the Axis will.
An accompanying letter to Mar-
sh 1 Detain informed the French
chief of state that Field Marshal
K.cl Rudolf Gerd Von Runstedt
“will be in charge of all mea-
sures deemed necessary and will
