Sarreguemines (from our correspondent). -- The American newspaper "Stars and Stripes" publishes information according to which an unidentified object, which could be a flying saucer, flew over the Palatinate and the region located to the northeast of Bitche.
The object, which was bright, was moving at a speed of approximately 60 to 80 km/h. Two pilots from the American base of Landstuhl, who had taken to the air, declared that they had noticed nothing in particular apart from small clouds which, at that moment, were moving at high speed on the horizon.
