Leopold believed in 1936 that hi-i denunciation of Belgium’s military agreement with France and Great Britain would save his country from a German invasion in the event 01 a new European war. He trusted the Germans. For that reason, when Hitler violated Belgium's neutrality 18 days ago, the allies were unable ; to assist Belgium quickly enough, i and the country was overrun. After thus jeopardizing his own country, Leopold, by his willful surrender, now has gravely handicapped tile Anglo-French forces to whom he appealed so tardily for help. General Weygand now must rapidly revise the strategy of the Flanders fighting. It is improbable that the Anglo-French troops with'n the Flanders area can hold back the Germans now that some 10 miles of battle front on the northern nano have been given to the Germans. General Weygand thus has to

(rnnflnm'il from I’11ui■ Onr) in France to rush to the aid of th«
allies.
"We knew dark days woutu I come,’ Reynaud told the nation.! “They have come. France has been ! invaded a hundred times and never | humbled. It is in the trials which | rwait us that we shall form ; France's new soul and make i greater than ever. Our faith in vie- ^ tory is intact. The strength of eacu i soldier, each Frenchman, each Frenchwoman, is multiplied. Misfortune has always made France greater .... we shall hold. ) shall conquer because we shall have j
held."
The French high command in its | morning communique, No. 535 of ths war, told the surrender news as .'ollowj; 'The military situation was ngg avated unexpectedly in the nortn is the result of the capitulation of the king of the Belgians, whose army was engaged alongside British ind French troops. "The allied forces have faced the icw situation and continue to fight. "There is nothing important to report on the whole rest of t’v>
front. ’
A high military source said that capitulation put the allied northern armies in a very serious ituation. Rut, he added, the nllhs took new measures to face the sitmtion and their fight continued. As had Reynaud, the informant sa.J that the Belgian king took his decision without consulting his government, his army chiefs, or his peop’e at a time when the position of the northern armies was "not too unfavorable." The informant emphasized that the British had counter-attack-ed successfully yesterday on the Lys river, in an attempt to relieve Gernan pressure on the Belgians. Fu - ther, he insisted, the allies stir held Calais this morning despite
German claims to it.
The informant disclosed that the Belgian army had already retirca from the river Lys-Ghent line befoie the capitulation offler. Rut how he said, the entire allied left fl'a'nii had been left and the French and British in the north were in a mon
