Find Problem in
North Africa
New Government
Must Be Established

WASHINGTON - One Of the
perplexing problems of the North
African situation is, strangely
enough, apart from the military.
II has to do with the political
set-up. Admiral Darlan issued
the order to cease firing and 1t
was obeyed by the French sol
diers. President Roosevelt backed
up Lieut.. Gen. Dwight d. Eisen-
hover in making the arrange
ment which he did with Admiral
Darlan. Whence did Admiral
Darlan derive his authority?
Clearly from the aged Marshal
Petain, who had just turned over
the Vichy government to Pierre
Laval, Hitler's stooge.
In normal times and prior to
the fall of France. that country
was governed by the constitution
and laws of the Third Republic.
Darlan was admittedly a Fascist.
Whether he has changed, or not,
Is not definitely known. Presi-
dent Roosevelt announced at his
press conference that the ar
rangement with Darlan was
merely a military one and tenn
porary.
u. s. SETS PRECEDENT
A precedent is being set up by
our own government which may
similarly serve as a budapest to
England and Russia in similar
cases. The soldiers of France
stationed In North Africa had
taken an oath to be loyal TO the
constituted authorities Of France.
That oath they regarded as bind
ing in dark days as well as
bright. To them, Admiral OAR
Ian represented the government
of France and had the legal au-
thority to issue the order to cease
firing on the troops of the United
States and to collaborate with
them.
What is perhaps not generally
recognized is that Algeria is not
a part of the French Empire. on
the contrary. it is a department
of France. as much a depart
ment of France as New York, or
Pennsylvania, or Kentucky. is
part of the United States. Until
the fall of France. Algeria was
governed by the French con-
stitution. II had deputies and
senators elected by the voters Of
that government. In liberating
II. we have liberated a very real
part Of France itself, and what
We do there viii have consider
able weight on the rest of France.
