Germans Press French
For New Mexican Envoy
By the Associated Press.

by l0e PSSOlldleu EItSo.
MEXICO CITY. Dec. 7.-Diplo-
matte sources reported tonight that
Nazi pressure on the Vichy govern
ment for more sympathetic repre-
Sentation" in Mexico might lead to
the forced retirement of French
Minister Albert Bodard.
His Vichy chosen successor would
come with instructions, these
sources said, to cooperate closely
with the German and Italian lega-
ton here in pro-Axis, anti-British
propaganda.
Named as a possible NaIinclined
successor was Gilbert Arvengas.
described as former French consul
general in Berlin.
If such plans 60 through, friends
of Minister Bodard reported that
he would remain in Mexico and in
terest himself in some work helpful
to the British war effort.
Whether Bodard will be removed
was said to be in doubt because of
the uncertain attitude of President
Avila Camacho's government. 1t
was said Avila Camachos admin
istration might refuse to accept ere
dentials from a diplomat it believed
might have been sent as an agent
of the Rome Berlin Axis.

ELIOT

LAAoAs
For the moment the battle OF
Britain has become war of
blockade and counterblockade, under
conditions well worth detailed ex.
animal ton.
The main British position is the
island of Great Britain, which
serves not only as a base for surface
ships carrying on the blockade, but
also affords bases for aircraft strik-
ing at the German-held ports and
shipping and at interior centers of
Germany. In addition it is an in
duStrial center manufacturing (as
yeti the greater part of the air
planes, ships and munitions being
used by the British. To this central
position there are several outposts: ::
Cd The chain of islands dividing
the Atlantic Ocean from the Green
land sea-. e., the Shetlands, the
Orkneys, the Faroes and Iceland
CO Northern Ireland; 90 Gibraltar.
The Germans hold the whole cost
of the continent from Norway to
France, both inclusive. They hold
no Atlantic outpost position. From
Denmark to UShant, inclusive, they
are effectively countered by the
British positions opposite them. Ac-
cess to the open sea from any point
of this line is difficult and dangerous.
To gain the Atlantic from the Nor
wegian coast German ships must
pass through the British blockading
forces based on the northern islands
above mentioned. Long nights,
stormy weather and fog render this
easier than getting out through the
narrow waters more directly COM
manded by Great Britain; still, it Is
not too easy-the risk Is consider
able and the distances comparatively
great.
Three Bases in France.
From the Atlantic coast of France,
however, from such ports as Brest,
Lorient and Rochefort, direct access
to the open ocean is quite feasible
These positions are hard for the
British to blockade, because the
blockading forces must come out
from Devonport or Milford Haven,
past German-held ports and under
the observation of German aircraft.
All three of these French ports were
formerly French naval dockyards,
and while no doubt extensive DEM
ohtions were carried out by the
French, still good deal in the way
of works and equipment may have
fallen into German hands. The
chief disadvantage of these ports
is that they are all within reach
of British bombers; but these can
hardly do much harm by day. and
by night suffer from the usual diff
ficulty of being unable to bomb
with sufficient accuracy to make sure
of hitting individual targets such
as ships. docks, machine shops and
oil tanks. So far, the Germans have
not been able to wholly demolish
any British naval bases and even
with their superior technique it is
not reasonable to expect the Brit
ish to be able to do the like to the
Germans.
Normally, shipping approaching
the British Isles from the Atlantic
takes one of two main routes-the
so-called northern approaches or
the western approaches. In time
OF peace the western approaches are
much the more important Of the
two. Passing in between France and
Ireland. the stream Of shipping is
divided into two, one going through
ST. Georges Channel into the Irish
Sea and so to Liverpool and Man.

Windsors Will Reach
Miami tuesday for
Duchess Operation
Party Will Go Directly
To Hospital Following
Arrival From Nassau

By the Associated Press.
MIAMI, Fla, Dec. THE Duke
and Duchess of Windsor will
arrive from Nassau early Tuesday
for a strictly private" four-day
visit to Miami during which the
Duchess will undergo a major dental
operation.
She has been suffering from an
infected tooth which has been quite
painful for several months. An
early plan to have it treated in
Miami was abandoned until two
weeks ago when physicians decided
the infection was affecting her gen.
eral health.
First Visit for Duke Since "a.
The Duchess will submit to the
operation by DR.. Horace L. Cartee
of Miami at St. Frances Hospital in
Miami Beach, probably few hours
after her arrival. A general anaes-
thetic is planned, as it probably
will be necessary to scrape the bone,
attendants said.
1t will be the Dukes first visit to
the United States since 1924, when
he was Prince of Wales.
The Windsors, with one aide-de-
camp and two servants, will go di-
rectly to the hospital upon their
arrival aboard the S. S. Munargo.
The party probably will remain
there overnight before entering a
hotel for the Duchess recuperation
before their return to Nassau late
Friday.
Accept No Invitations.
Through his aides, the Duke made
clear in advance that the trip
would be private, that he would ac-
cept no invitations and make no
appearances in public except when
necessary.
1t is planned for the Mayors of
Miami, Miami Beach and Coral
Gables, with British Embassy rep
resentative from Washington, Brit
ish Consuls and a limited number of
other officials to greet the Windsors
when they arrive.
The Duchess expects to join the
Duke in greeting the Reception
Committee and in meeting news
men. She has not curtailed her
customary duties because of the in
fection.
