CHAUTEMPS URGES UNITY FOR FRENCH
: Ex- Premier Asks De Gao : x Tq Place Himself Under Giraud.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 29 (U. P.).|
—Camille Chautemps, a member of the French cabinet at the time of ‘the fall of France, today called on all Frenchmen to unite under Gen. Henri Honore Giraud, the new high commissioner of North Africa, and urged creation of a provisional government or a national administration capable of speaking for France all over the world. He predicted in one of his infrequent interviews that France again would become a major ally of the united nations—that as a revitalized belligerent she could become next im importance to Great Britain and Soviet Russia as an ally to the United States. He believes that a “magnificent army” of at least 300,000 or 400,000 men could be raised in North Africa and between 100,000 and 200,000 in other colonies.
No Political Aspirations
Recalling that Gen, Charles de Gaulle, Fighting French leader, had indicated shortly after the fall of France that he did not want Chautemps in his organization, Chautemps suggested that now de Gaulle lay aside any differences and place himself under Giraud’s orders. (De Gaulle and Giraud are expected to confer in North . Africa - this week.) Chautemps was interviewed in the quiet suburban cottage in which he and his family live. ‘ “I no longer have any political lambitions,” he said. “When I offered my services to Giraud short.ly after the allied invasion of North ‘Africa, I did so only as a private soldier and not in any political capacity. “I absolutely approve the words of President Roosevelt, telling us that no single man can establish a French government until the French people themselves will be freed and able to choose freely their own government, -
Urges Provisional Setup
“Nevertheless, I think it would be better for France to have henceforth at least a provisional government or a national administration, capable of speaking for her all over the world, to be represented in the united nations and in the negotiations about the conduct of the war and about peace. “But such an organization is nossible only in unity. We can have one government, but not two. And this single government of national union can be formed only, in my opinion, under the leadership of _ Gen. Giraud.” Chautemps was a member of the Reynaud cabinet when France capitulated to Germany in 1940 and vice premier in the Petain cabinet which sued for an armistice. After the armistice he was replaced in the Petain cabinet by Pierre Laval and got a “special mission” to South erica which was canceled after he had léft Vichy. His services were rejected by the Fighting French organization on the grounds that as one who assisted in the surrender of France, the French people would have nothing to do with him. . Since Nov. 1940, he'has been in the United States.
SEARCH PROPERTY OF 102 ALIENS IN STATE
‘Special FBI Agent Julius M. Lopez, in charge of Indiana, said today that the property of 102 enemy aliens has been searched since the United States entered the war a year ago. All the aliens lived in northern Indiana, he said. The raids were made in Ft. Wayne, South Bend, {Gary and Hammond. Pederal agents seized a large quantity of contraband, including 80 guns, 3543 rounds of ammunition, 37 cameras and 65 short wave radios. Other prohibited items were maps and assorted small weapons. Lopez reported that 4728 enemy } aliens were living in the state, including 2847 Germans, 1855 Italians and 26 Japanese.

EXIT SPEEDED BY DEMOCRATS
Many Leave Courthouse, City Hall Before GOP Takes Over.
Staffs of city hall and court house workers dwindled to only about half their normal operating strength today as Democratic officials pre-| pared to relinquish control of local government Thursday night. In the last three weeks, several hundred court house and city hall workers left their jobs for posts in private business and war industries.
This has sent elected officials and their chief deputies scurrying around to man the vacant desks in a make-shift manner.
County Clerk Charles Ettinger yesterday was pounding a typewriter at a vacant stenographer’s desk and his chief deputy, Cletus Seibert, manned the cashier's cage and the alimony counters. Robert Tarelton, the clerk's office cashier, is planning to leave tonight for a job in a war plant, unable to wait for the big balancing project Thursday night, when more than ' $200,000. petty cash receipts must be checked to turn the books over to Clerk-elect Jack Tilson Friday. Appointments made by the incoming officials have not yet filled half the jobs, indicating that many Democratic workers may be asked to. stay at their posts until “deserving” Republicans can be found.
Many Get Other Jobs
However, most of the Democrats have indicated they already have other jobs and will not report for work Saturday morning. Unless Republican officials complete their staffs in the next three days, some public offices will not be operating at 100 per cent efficiency.
WMC OFFERED AID BY INDIANA CENTRAL

[ADVANCE PLANS FOR WAR TRIALS
International Court to Try Axis Criminals Is
Proposed.
LONDON, Dec. 29 (U. P.).—Allied plans are already far advanced for an international criminal court to
try such war criminals as Adolf! Hitler and Benito Mussolini as soon :
as the war has ended, it was Jevealed today. Dr. Marcel Dedaer. chief justice of the Belgian courfs in Great Britain, and chairman of the war criines commission of the allied inte:mational assembly, is in charge of the plans. . He is working close co-operation with Sheldon Glueck, professor of criminology at Harvard law school, in drafting plans for the framework of the proposed court. Reliable sources here reported that President Roosevelt and Secretary of State Hull might select Glueck or another prominent American legal expert to act as consulting adviser to the court when it is constituted.
Experts Study Plan
Allied authorities, desiring . to avold the _situation which arose after the last war, when designated war criminals escaped without trial, want the war criminal court for this war to be set up well in advance, with a carefully drafted code of international laws, so that it will be ready to function as soon as the war ended. Experts have been studying plans for months. Several allied governments already have drawn up lists of war criminals, including Hitler, Mussolini, Heinrich Himmler, chief the German Gestapo; Vidkun Quisling, the Norwegian traitor, and Pierre Laval and Jacques Doriot, collaborationist leaders of France. Dedaer said that the allies wanted to punish war criminals so as to deter future aggression. He said that it must be recognized that many persons who might be classed as war criminals had acted under duress and that, therefore, the possibility of reform through correction and education must not be overlooked. Prof. Glueck himself has drafted a war criminal program which the international assembly here is considering. } 10 Points in Program
The Glueck program has 10 points: : : Trial and punishment of war! criminals must be an integral part of peace terms. Axis nations must be compelled to surrender criminals as a prerequisite of cessation of hostilities. Lists of criminals and evidence against them should be kept up to date during the war. Peace terms must compel the surrender of axis archives to “aid the prosecution. National civilian and military courts in occupied countries should |
try most offenders for crimes com-|
mitted in those countries. This would apply especially to such men as Quisling, Laval, Doriot and members of the German gestapo. .~ non-military international court should be set up and its jurisdiction should extend to crimes committed outside axis territory. , The court should ‘be provided now with a code of international criminal law, defining war crimes and prescribing punishment.
Axis Chiefs Liable
Axis chiefs of state should be specifically liable to punishment.
Allied military forces should act as police to arrest and hold war criminals ani extradition treaties should prevent the escape of criminals to neutral countries. International court procedure should be a simplified combination of British and American procedure. Punishment of war criminals should conform to punishment meted for similar crimes in prosecuting countries. All details of a prosecution program should be worked out now,

STEP UP RECAPS FOR TRUCK USE
State Gets a a January Quota of 11,172; Pas-
senger Allotment Raised.
An increase in the state’s truck tire recapping services will be effected in January to provide new surfaces for casings wearing thin on vehicles engaged in war transportation, Kenneth M. Kunkel. state OPA rationing officer, said Indiana's recap allotment for January will be 11,172, as compared to 5007 for December. An added feature of next month’s tire quotas will be the separation of allotments for farm tractors and implements from those for trucks and busses.
Imposed Difficult Decisions
Previously when this quota was lumped, local war price and rationing boards sometimes had to make difficult decisions between farm machines and commercial vehicles when the total allotment was not large enough for both. Indiana’s quota of passenger car tires generally is somewhat changed from December’s in line with reports from the field on anticipated rationing requirements, The January allotment of grade 1 passenger car tires—the best quality new tires, which are available principally. for use on cars with a mileage ration of over 1000 miles monthly—has been set at 4339, including a state reserve of 224, compared with 2555 for December.
tires, which are for cars with a ration of between 560 and 1000 miles a month, is 8328, including state reserves of 429, compared to 13,689 for December. .
Grade 3 Quota Cut
Next month’s quota of grade 3 tires is 20,614, including state reserves of 1063, compared to December quota of 29,418. Grade 3s are for cars having a mileage ration of 560 miles a month or less. The passenger car recapping quota in Indiana for January is 29,476, including state reserves of 3983, which compares to 29,419 for December.
U. 3. REMOVES BAN ON CASUALTY LISTS
—The war and navy departments will permit publication and broadcast of entire casualty ahd prisoner lists in the future, it was learned today. The ban, which previously had
‘|restricted publication to names of
men from the area served by each newspaper and radio station, was lifted after a decision by administration officials that the American public can “take bad news,” it was said. The previous order had been in-
prevent easy compilation of overall casualties by the enemy—but this was found to be not sufficient to warrant the censorship. Meanwhile Secretary Knox revealed that no naval officers or men over 38 years of age would be released from the service because of thejr age. The army plans to release men over 38 if they apply and if the army no longer requires their services.
