PARIS, Sept. 9 (N.A.N.A0.-
Frances Death Battalion-Suicide

a propaganda stunt nor fantasy.
At the beginning of every war, one
hears such stories-"human torpe-

fatal maladies When the Franco
German War began in 1870. Carl

ton called THE Knights of Death"
and wore a black uniform with a
white skull and crossbones over the

But the corps which former 1t.
Jacques Pericard is now forming
here is far more serious in purpose
because 1t. Pericard's name stands
for something intensely heroic, real
and thrilling to all Frenchmen who
remember the last war. He typif1ed
for his countrymen the miracle OF
French resistance at Verdun when
taken by surprise and attacked by
superior forces in the early spring
Of 1915, the French made an astound-

The whole French Army passed
through Verdun and left there nearly
a quarter of a million dead. The
German losses were even heavier In

Windsors, Returning
To England, Greeted
In Times Editorial
Poper Often Mirrors
Government Views;
Worship Sent to Get Them

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, Sept. 9.-The Duke and
Duchess of Windsor, returning to
England for the first time since they
went into voluntary exile three years
ago, received significant editorial
welcome today from the influential
London Times.
Significant, too-in the light of
the stir created by the Dukes abdi-
cation December 10, 1885, to marry
American-born Wallis Warfield, and
the controversy over whether she
should be addressed as Your Royal
HighneSs was the fact a British
destroyer went to France to get
them.
The Duke, ready to undertake an
important wartime task for the
Empire. left Cannes with his wife
last night, en- route to a channel
port where the destroyer was said
to be waiting to rush them to Eng
land
Most observers thought this meant
old wounds had been healed by the
war, that the government felt King
George vi had attained such stature
there was no danger he might be
overshadoWed by his colorful
brother, and that the Duke might
get some important job to help his
country.
Kent Won't Go to Australia.
The Duke of Kent and his wife,
the former Princess Marina, will not
60 to Australia, where he was to
have been governor general, it was
announced. The Duke has joined
| the navy. Lord CoWrie will con-
tinue as governor general.
The announcement that the
Duke and Duchess of Windsor are
leaving Antilles for England will
cause no surprise, still less any kind
of contention" commented the
Times, which often mirrors govern
ment views.

sumed that war would sweep away

1t was expected the couple would
/ take up residence quietly at the
former Kings old residence, Fort
Belvedere, outside of London. The
closely secluded castle remained his
property after the government crisis
which Windsor's insistence upon
marrying the woman I love- Gre
ated.
Speculation today centered about
the duchess reception by British
aristocracy, and what the duke
might do to help his nation in war

reached points where they could
begin to attack that system OF forti-
fications.
1t would be foolish to take too
optimistic a view of the ability OF
the western allies to break through
the German Notifications.
Last January highly placed mill
tary leaders in Paris with whom I
discussed the question of France s
tactics in the next war were frankly
pessimistic.
They said that the Siegfried line
was not unconquerable. But, they
added, it would take at least six
months and minimum of 10000
casualties before they could break
through.
Unless the German defense line
on the western front has been
weakened in the last few months,
there is no reason to believe that the
situation has changed in the Slight
est degree since last January.
The official communicates from the
French Army in the field are
cautious and less optimistic-if care
fully read-than the comments
which follow them The French,
supported by British units. have
made substantial progress in the
unfortified region between the Mag
mot and Siegfried lines,
They have occupied German
towns and villages. They have had
heavy skirmishes with German
troops which were stationed in
temporary defenses outside the line
of Notifications. But they have not
begun to tackle their real problem
the attempt to break through Ger
manys security wall.
The German submarine war is
taken lightly by all naval experts.
1t is spectacular but not important.
The most interesting thing in the
efforts of Germany to damage Brit
ish and French shipping is the fact
that it is beyond doubt that the
Reich has sub bases in some foreign
countries.
Germany has officially as subma-
rines Naval experts believe, how
ever, that this number ought to be
multiplied by two. But none of
the German subs are larger than
700 tons. This means their cruising
radius is not greater than 1000
miles. Yet German submersibles
are operating at distances far great
er than that.
The conclusion which naval oh.
servers draw, is that the often re.

The war is a week old today. 1t
has brought few unexpected things
except the somewhat surprising ease
with which Hitler has been able to
conquer the richest industrial Sec
ton of Poland without much loss
and without meeting any effective
resistance.
The objectives of the German
Army have been attained. In fact,
the Germans have advanced farther
and more rapidly than their general
staff expected.
The Poles explain that their pres
ent tactics are to establish solid
front behind well-prepared defense
lines across the Vistula River. This
may be wise strategy, but it does
not meet the full approval of the
British and the French general
staffs. They are worried that the
power of resistance of their ally will
be much handicapped by the fact
that they have lost all their indus
trial centers and will have to rely
henceforth only on the war ma
terials they have on hand. Ammu-
milton factories. airplane factories
and other plants vital for successful
prosecution of the war are either in
German hands. or. if they are not,
the Poles still will be short of raw
materials which are in territories
occupied by the foe.
44*A
Nobody denies that the Polish
Army showed great bravery in the
fighting of important rear-guard
actions against the advancing Ger
mans. But they were generally out
numbered in the place where the
foe chose to strike and at all times
they were put at disadvantage by
the superior German mechanical
forces. The dashing Polish cavalry
could do nothing AGAINST tanks and
armored cars. and died superbly, y
as it was said in a report received
here last night.
Some military observers are some

the Poles to resist behind the Wis

This Is a matter of weeks-not

of the German lightning war, be-
lieved they could resist long enough
to give the French and the British
a chance to break down the Siegfried
line and force Germany to slow down
