De Caulle May
be Dissuaded

Washington, May 2--INS- The
United States and Great Britain 10.
day are striving 10 dissusde Gen.
Charles de Gaulle, leader OF the
Free French movement, from at
tempting to establish himself as the
future political leader Of France.
A highly authoritative source IN
Washington disclosed that an ef-
fort by Gen. de Gsulle 10 convert HIS
movement into a political organiza-
ton with himself as its head mas
split the Free French wide open.
Both the United states and Great
Britain have let de Gaulle know that
they are unwilling TO grant him dip
lomatic recognition as the head o,
any political regime, and the Amer
lean government has animated that
It may suspend it's aid 10 his move
ment II he persists with the plan.
The United States wants Gen. DE
Gaulle TO remain as the military
leader OF the Free French move
ments, but 1t wants him to coniine
his activities to military resistance
against the Axis.
This government takes the posi-
ton that the question Of who snail
be the future political leader OF
France is one which the French
people must decide themselves
when they are able 10 express their
free will.
The crisis created within the Free
French organization by Gen. DE
Gaulle's political aspirations already
has cost the movement the services
OF Vice Admiral Emil Muselier. Tor
mer commander of the Free French
naval forces.
II is now possible to disclose that
Admiral Muselier was abruptly dis
missed BY General de Gaulle be-
couse OF his opposition to the lat
ter's plan 10 transform the Free
Free French movement into po-
litical organization.
