The current travelers’ tales supposed to have inspired General de Gaulle's latest appeal to Frenchmen to up the fight against Germany are pretty y material on which to base sober thinking It may be true that Mershal Petain is per- mitting a number of French naval officers to spend their “vacations” in North Africa, but there are} many reasons why, if it is true, the fact may mean little or nothing. Food is more plentiful in Africa| and there are more distractions than in the unoccu- pied zone in France; the Marshal may desire to keep his naval officers well fed and contented. Tt{ | may also be to his interest to have it known by direct |contact that his Government is functioning wih |loyal support from the navy. Similarly the move- ment of one or two French warships to North Afri-} can porls simultaneously with the return of its Governor to French Morocco may be merely in ac- | cordance with routine need. Again, Marshal Petain may be and probably is “determined to rule France, free of foreign imposi- tions” (as far as possible), and be willing to go to prison rather than give way to demands for the passage of German troops through the occupied zone, But the German troops would not be deterred marching by the spectacle of the venerable b hal behind bars.
