Admiral Darlan has promised the
Fuehrer that France will:
l. Sign a peace treaty ending the
armistice and a special protocol,
setting forth that France recognizes
the new order of the German Herren

fullest, most loyal collaboration.

The treaty also provides, it is

the north coast of France so long as
Germany is at war with Britain.
