luinty today over official intentions
over Japanese moves in the Far East
Japan meanwhile was reported
preparing Il sweeping announcement

puro$C Monroe doctrine.
The Tokyo newspaper ASahi said
that lae plucllmutiOn would warn all
powers against interference Of any

Both White House and State de-
p;..lwvn: tJIuCd aside questions
about the fleet with remarks that
they had NO news. Other sources were
equally NOn-Committal.
Undetermined was whether the big
battle iorcC Was Steaming toward the
United States mainland, or South
American waters. or further out to-
ward the Orient.
Some diplomatic quarters, how
ever. found ii difficult to reconcile
Withdrawal of the fleet with the re-
pcatcd insiStance of the government
of maintenance Of the status quo in
the Pacific
Others saw the possibility that
western hemisphere defense had be-

No reports or preparations for the

Frances detection from the SIDE

indication of the looSeneSS OF even
the best forged alliances in this mod
ern world OF warfare and ho$tjlItieS.
The two had pughted their troth III
lndying unity and accord. only to
end IN 4 separate peace for France.
which both had sworn by all that
is high and holy that they would
never do.
France finds peace again in the
ruins OF her once prosperous cities
and coumuv>jdeS. She could have
gone on. but 70 have done so would
have meant tor her only the COM
plete deSolatjon Of her soil and her
people. albeit such 4 move would
have kept H;;lcr'> forces occupied
longer and would have weakened
them materially against the day OF
the imminent blitzkrieg against
Britain. Other than the saving Of
the lives Of many soldiers, the uIti-
mate result would have been but
slightly different from what it now
IS.
