LE PE A es a DERE Fi SE DE GAULLE A POOR ALLY SEEKS ABSOLUTE CONTROL We have always been of the opinion that the United States and Great Britain were too much concerned over the opin- jons and actions of General Zharles De Gaulle. The activity of the leader of the Free French, since the Fall of France, has been possible largely because the British per- mitted him to use a radio and provided funds to finance his organization. In repayment, General De Gaulee has displayed a discon- certing ambition for political control of French fortunes and, | it appears, demanded complete contro! of the military forces of France General Giraud, somewhat older, has been no match for De, Gaulle in the effective use of’ political propaganda. tion in North Africa Saved by the intervention of the United States and Great Britain; im advising De Gaulle that Gi-j Taud> must remain in command of French armed forces in North Africa A Washington dispatch by Harold Callender explains that General De Gaulle has gained Support among the youths of North Africa, telling them that General Giraud is a puppet of Allies. that France is treated Worse than Luxembourg, be- eause, although her army fights} with the Allies, there is no French flag among those of the United Nations, no French gov- @rmment represented in their eoucils and not even full French sovereignty in North Africa.

Mr. Knox that our air- craft carrier production program, which is particularly vital to the South Pacific offensive, is mak- says ing good progress. The United States will soon have ‘several times the number” of carriers that were with the fleet in 1942 @Md the increase, according to the Secretary, will be “very considerab: The long supply line across the Pacific, together with lack of fa- Cilities to unload ships, naturally delayed effective warfare against the Japanese Mr. Knox points out that our lines are in Geed shape that losses have averaging ics month While no official ment has been mad of ns early day to some £ emis. perts for howd Oty culate kes i e would b up unload Eastern Now. w bases { f and facabitics cargo ships. the Ur im & posit to action aga sive launched bases and @ strong nave supply adding ou: been negligible two ships a announce- the flow In th war, according correspond stayed in awaiting un- adequate handling of ted States is take aggressive n.
