Grow Larger; France Forever Is Active.
By BRUCE CATTON Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, Jan. 10. — Men nd munitions for the “free France” orces of Gen. Charles de Gaulle are beginning to flow trom the United States in a steady stream - which is likely to grow a lot bigger in the near future. The work is being organized by de Gaulle's organization in the United States, a group called France Forever. Made up largely of expatriate Frenchmen, or of Americans of French descent, France Forever is bending ‘every effort to build up the ds Gaulle movement into a formidable weapon against Hitler. France Forever so far has been short on propagandag activities and long on direct action. A sample of the kind of work being done is the presence on Jersey piers of 20 ambulance planes, crated and ready to ship to de Gaulle.
Plane Production Studied
A sample of the job that is about to be undertaken is the drafting of a program for mass production of military planes. This is being worked out by expert technicians in the group, who believe they can soon get large numbers of planes built, ° | The importance of this sort of work lies in the fact that the de Gaulle military forces — approximately 36,000 troops, mostly in equatorial Africa—have no real base of supplies. They are cut off from France, of course, and the British have little material to spare. The belief is that if a steady source can e developed in the United States, e de Gaulle troops can become n important factor in the war. So far the public appeals of France Forever have been aimed largely at French citizens living in’ this country. No recruiting of troops ‘is done: that would violate U. S. laws, and France Forever is being scrupulous.
Short Wave Broadcasts
Nevertheless, any Frenchman in America who wants to get overseas and join the de Gaulle army is likely to find his way smoothed considerably. One of the group’s big jobs is the |
sending of short-wave radio programs to France, to keep Frenchmen informed of the course of the -war and to keep alive the spirit of resistance. Right now, two programs| are sent weekly, broadcasting being done in Boston. Before long these will become daily programs,
