i i:i \t ii peopi i CONTINCM* FROM FAOB ONW France Th. government of Marshal j Henri Philipp* Petain, under the Induettie of former VkePremler Pierre Uval. bet on a German vic- 1 lory over Great Britain and agreed I lo ■ ollaburaiion la a new European order dominated by Germany Must members of the government are •ill) staking their future on that bet. although they are leas «««•* dent now of the on home tine of them stplalned It this way: “There are more thaa botind.atm Germans with a vast hidasirial ma . hiae. It is Ohly reasonable that they •h.rtild be a dominant power on the continent. We lost the war We are primarily an agricaltaral country and we can Bt Into a new European order In wbh h we main tain the rights and sovereignty of France jest as any one of your States In America maintains Its position And just as a native of any one of those states can become pre*wtent of the Vailed litat««. no <an Frenchmen eventually become leaders again In Europe ” In a general way. that is the of-fl.-tal version of tbe ultimate pur pose of collaboeutkm with Ger many bat it is modlAed by many Inßuenies. The Bret big laßumr* was Uval. who staked everytking on a quick German triumph after France fell H* went so far tn hie egort* to gain personal power with the baiklag of Germany that be felt vhlim to th* Intrigue of his political foe* at home and lo Pe tain's «wn ideas of how to save France from ektinvtlou. Uval is now In Paris bat many la Vichy •wlieve he will return Th*y know that the Germans tan put him in a place of power again If they think It desirable. The ouster of Uval brought Ad mtral Francois Thirlan to power •nd ohiudidated in his bands th. most important cabinet poets Darlan I* outspokenly antl-British be <au»* he built up the French navy and saw some of Its Bnest ships attacked by th* British at Itukar ; and Oran He Is reputed to have «epressed a hope that th* French navy would have a < hance to show , Its mettle to the British but is also t redited with being merely more , anti British than pro-German. Hurlaa* lack of political caperIrnce ha* brought Petain's position < more strongly into tbe foreground. The old marshal, regardless of his ; personal political views, represents j the Freni h desire to survive as a| nalloti lie has convinced the peo- . pie that he Is above poHtical Intrigue or personal ambition His one desire Is to go down In history I as a national saviour He Is trying I ( to mark time until *omebody wins >h» war. peialn and all of free France, however, are at the merry of Germany , The line of demarcation be tw**n occupied and unocenptod. France is a diabolically clevar cord of strangulation." one French <>B rial ekplained "Whenever it is drawn tight, we begin to choke " Th- Germans hold almost J.« 00.BBS French war prisoners and by holding them can delay tbe ability of the nation to recover and weaken France for a geberatiou by drastically affecting the birth rale G- rmans are using blllhms of francs paid by the French government for »upport of the Nail army In occupied France to buy Into French industries and other enterprises which they wit! control even if the army of occupation is withdrawn The Nail program of economic destruction of France la only part ot tbe problem. Tbe French are; running short of food and whenever the ' stragulation line" is! drawn tight the Germans can make tbe food fuel, and raw materials shortages so acute that the free, tone is all but paralysed. Already j the food shortage has persuaded; Petain to back Darlan s threat to | use French warships against the, British bhnkade 1 Against the German power, there | are a few safeguards. Ou* is tbe; Naiidlctated armistice that left tbe . fl~t lu Freni n hst>da to protect i French colonies. As long as Petain . can thraatea to Bae to North Africa , and turn the Beef, air force and i coion tel army over to cooperation i with the British, the Germans must carefully weigh the cost of break ing tbe armtetlce terms by invading the free sone or selling French naval bases.
