It is one ca2ven homeless regimes beset by yrchblems of finance, communica- tion and language, which attempt 1emote control of their nations from London. The others are the governments of Norway, Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Greece, Yugoslavia and the Netherlands. Struggling beside them are five “free” movements—French, Ruman- ian, Austrian, Danish and Italian. All are keeping in touch witn their peoples through underground channels in the hope that when the “great day" comes they can return, Most striking ing on through nished by the Norwegians, examples of carry- difficulties are fur- Poles, Dutch and The Polish National Unity gov- ernment, under President Raczkie- wicz, represents Poland's fourlarg- est parties, Its nine-man cabinet meets every two weeks, and its “little parliament”—+20 members of the National Council—sits almost every day. The army high command meets separately. No Minor Offices “We have only major offices,” a spokesman said. “None of the sec- cnd-grade departments is here, and so we eliminate much red tape.” The nutshell governing body h: a secretariat of only about 200 and a foreign staff of ten.

Big Shipping Business One of the Hollanders’ biggest jobs is directing about three mil- lion tons of shipping. In addition to merchant ships, the Dutch suc-| ceeded in bringing most of their navy across the channel and even towed some unfinished vessels. One.

Dutch seamen are manning one of the 50 destroyers from the United States. H The government broadcasts twice a day to the homeland by BBC and leaders say they are “well in-| formed” on conditions here. At present they are planning strategy to “further undermine the German soldiers’ morale.” Norway is one of the richest exiles. Its government meets all its own expenses and even pays in- terest on foreign loans -out of the| income from four million tons of| merchant shipping and reserves of | gold it was able to bring out of| the country. King Haakon comes to London periodically to preside over inet meetings. “A considerable staff is needed,” an official said, “although the run- ning of the government has been| simplified by concentrating on the! can-| ; {one major problem and eliminating}pany while in its employ.

The Czech government headed by President Benes, has the big-| est cabinet—I13 men, who do not represent’ political parties as such but “essential political “social ten- dencies.” Five seats are occupied by Slovaks. The. provisional parlia= ment of 32 members, appointed by Benes, is an advisory body. Belgians Lack a King The success of the Belgian, Greek and Yugoslay exile governments is difficult to’evaluate. The Belgians are handicapped because thelr king is a prisoner and the others be- cause parts of their cabinets “and staffs still are in flight. The Belgians also have found their work complicated because some Ministers did not come to London. This difficulty was hintad at in a recent statement which de- clared: “We are the only legal gov-| ernment and nobody can set up another either in occupied Belgium PRICES Officials ’AmbassadoWir Stafford ' UTHE:DARLY ALASKA EMPIRE, FRIDAY, JUNE 27, 194 i Vi oe, Vichy Troops MayAbandon SyrianDrive Turkey Grants Transit fo| French Army fo Come | from Front ANKARA, Turkey, June 27.—A high Ankara source today reported that Turkey has granted a transit | | permit for Vichy forces from Syria providing they travel as unarmed civilians.
