JERUSALEM, May 22.-French
troops are on the move in Syria and
Lebanon and long-idle French war
ships at Beirut Harbor have started
Notwithstanding point to the
declaration by High Commissioner
Gen. Henri Dentz that his Army Of
the East was ready to meet force
with torce.
On the other hand, little hostility
toward the British is to be found in
these French-mandated territories
OF the Middle East, and although
the army generally is counted as
loyal to Gen. Dentz, some free
French" sentiment is known to ex-
ist. Some French airmen are said
to have gone over to the free
French"
tReuters, British news agency,
and Radio Brazzaville, free
French" station in French Equa-
torial Africa. reported that a full
regiment of French regulars in
Syria was believed to have de-
serted to join free French"
troops declared to be advancing
into Syria from Palestine.
CThe British news agency
quoted the independent French
agency A. F. I. as saying the
regiment which deserted to Gen.
Charles de Gaulle's forces com.
prised the rear guard of a large
army ordered into Lebanon to
forestall possible Intervention

Borders Remain Open.
Highways are guarded and
blocked, but the borders remain
open and there is no blackout in the
cities despite British bombings of
airflelds used by the Germans in
sending help to Iraq Gen. Dentz
has protested these bombings as acts
Of aggression.
His broadcast warning to the
British, in which he said Syria
would not "endanger its just cause
by aggressive actions" but stood
ready to meet force with force"
was interpreted as an indication of
a prior French German agreement
permitting Nazi use of airports in
Syria and Lebanon.
Unofficial reports said a German
demand for use of the airfelds had
been rejected fortnight ago. but
that Nazi planes suddenly began to
land anyway.
In view of the situation, espe-
cially at home, what could we do?"
some Frenchmen asked me.
Hope to be Spared Conflict.
l heard the hope widely expressed
during my trip through Syria and
Lebanon from Turkey that these
lands would be spared conflict be-
yond that at the airdromes and
many natives openly expressed de-
light at the discontinue of the
French in the current situation.
There Is talk of an infiltration of
German tourists" but foreigners
to whom I talked said they had
seen no indication that any Nazis
were present except aviators.

ness to leave if the situation makes
