Allies Test LuvuI's Power
Deliberate 'Crowdine' Of Viehy by u S. and
Britain Expected to Reveal French Attitude

Of American military occupation of
New Caledonia in the Pacific. Laval
ordered French troops to resist the
British seizure of Madagascar, but
there was complete absence CT
threats Of reprisal. such as use of
the French feet TO attack British
supply lines or otherwise aid the
Germans.
Most revealing of all, perhaps,
was yesterdays statement of the
Vichy Ambassador, CASTOR Henry
Haye, emerging from the State De-
partment, that he had come not to
protest negotiations looking to in
creased American control of Mar
Unique. but merely to inquire what
was going on in that quarter. M.
Henry-Haye's outgivings, in fact,
were far more militant during the
Petain-Darlan days than they have
been since Laval took over.
The tussle Laval Is having with
French public opinion is illustrated
by the remarkable circumstances of
Gen. Giraud, who escaped from
German prison, openly living at
Lyons. with neither Vichy police
nor the omnipotent Gestapo SEEM
ingly daring to touch him. Sur
render Of Giraud by Vichy might
cause the whole French internal
situation to explode.
Fear Sailors Revolt.
The Germans are not worried
about the mass of French people,
beaten to helplessness by their con-
querors. What they do fear, as in
dicated by intelligence reports
reaching the Allied governments, Is
that something will touch OF a re-
volt Of sailors manning the French
warships, and Of the French Army
In North Africa.
Gen. Giraud not only has become
national hero because Of his dar-
ing exploit, but he is emblematic of
the upward Of 100000 French
men still In German prison camps.
An underground organization of
French World War veterans has
operated with considerable effec-
tiveness in aiding prisoners to
escape to Vichy territory. Even be-
fore the Giraud incident, 1t was
said. the Germans had abandoned
efforts to rearrest these prisoners
because they found that public ex-
citement thus created was too costly
to themselves.
Hitler's main aim as respects
France clearly has been to make 1t
a base Of supply Of manufactured
materials for his army and food
for both soldiers and civilians. To
this end he has endeavored to draw
the line between enslavement and
freedom for French workers in the
way that would induce them to give
most In labor. Alternately he has
browbeaten and cajoled the French
masses.
Put Up With Petain.
At any time since the summer of
1910 Hitler could have placed all of
France under one Of his gaulitiers,
as he has done In all other occupied
countries. Or, at any time he could

respecting Vichy now, while the
military situation in Europe appears
to be looking up for the United Ma
tions, than to permit Laval to build
up his power, to be thrown into the
balance at some future moment
when it would do the Germans the
most good.
Everything that has happened in
the four weeks since Laval was re-
turned to power indicated that
this was a stroke Of weakness rather
than strength on Germany's part.
Every day Allied ofncials have come
more confidently to believe the
change in government at Vichy was
prompted solely by realization that
the French internal situation was
out Of hand and that something
stronger than the Petain-Darlan re-
eime was needed to control 1t.
Action Lacks Iron.
Laval's initial statements were
bold enough to sustain the worst
fears as to his intentions. but his
actions have been anything but
iron listed, as concerns either for
eign relations or his home front.
American accrediting of a consul
general to Brazzaville, chief Equi-
torial African seat of the Free
French government of Gen. De
Gaulle, drew from Vichy only a
mild protest and the same was true

BY GOULD LINCOLN.

The Gallup poll. estimating the
probable results of the 1912 con-
gressional elections and showing
that the Democrats would gain
80 House seats-if the election
were held today-cheered the
Democrats. It has. however, left
the Republican leaders undis-
mayed. Representative "Joe"
Martin, minority leader of the
House and chairman Of the Re-
publican National Committee,
said today that all the reports
received by his committee from
the country at large indicate the
reverse-that the gains in the
election would be Republican, not
Democratic. However, Mr.. Mar
tin declared that 1t was too early
at present to predict accurately
the outcome Of the elections
which will be decided at the polls
next November.
Other Republicans in the
House charged that the estimate
OF Democratic victory was prop
aganda," particularly as the
statement accompanying the poll
undertook to explain away the
Republican victories in two for
merly Democratic-held congress
sional districts since the Pearl
Harbor attack. One Of these was
in Colorado and the other in
Connecticut.
Republicans for Victory.
Mr.. Martin insisted that Re-
publican victories at the polls
would not mean any lessening in
the determination OF the country
to win the war. Nothing, he said,
would be done by the Repub-
licans to hinder In any way the
war effort, either during the po-
Htical campaign or afterward.
He criticized the Democrats be-
cause of the attacks which
are coming from Democratic
sources constantly upon Repub-
lican members Of Congress who
did not wish this country to
enter the war-before Pearl Har-
Dor. That kind Of attack, he de-
clared, would cause bitter feeling
and increase disunity In the
country, rather than cure it.
The latest column written by
Charles Nicholson, director OF
publicity for the Democratic Ma
tional Committee, declared that
the victory Of the Republicans
at the polls in 1918, during tho
closing days Of the World War,
had paved the way for the
policy Of isolation which pre-
vailed In the country for 30 many
years and for the defeat in the
Senate Of the Wilson League Of
Nations. He attributed to this
victory, and subsequent Repub-
lican victories, not only the de-
preston Of 1929, but also the
promotion of Hitlerism in Ger
many and the willingness of
Japan to 90 on a rampage in the
Far East. "It is to be hoped"
he wrote, that the voters next
November will keep this in mind
when they go to the polls"
Wendell L. Willkie, Republican
presidential candidate in 1910,
in a speech delivered at Union
College yesterday, gave q differ
ent picture. He was as severe in
his attack upon the policy OF iso-
lationism. However, he did not

Reber, representing Allied diplo-
macy, have engaged in friendly
discussions with the French ad-
miral The instructions of both
representatives were clear: There
were to be no dilatory negotia-
tions or waiting for orders from
Vichy.
The United States, speaking in
the name Of all the nations in
terested in keeping the Axis out
of the Western Hemisphere, has
solemnly pledged that Frances
sovereignty will not be impaired
and that her possessions will be
returned after the Axis Is de-
feated, provided that co-opera-

the Vichy government remains
only nominal.

feelings regarding Marshal Pc
tain as long as this country was
convinced that the Vichy chief of
state was the actual ruler of
France. Now that it is obvious he
is nothing more than a puppet in
the hands of the all-out collabo-
rationist, Pierre Laval, we have
indicated to the French high
commissioner that while Marshal
Petain may appear to give orders,
1t will be Laval who makes the
decisions.
Admiral Robert, like 80 many
high-ranking French officers, was
willing to obey the orders Of the
aged marshal to the end. But

lay all the blame on the Repub-
icans for that policy, or for the
defeat of the League of Nations
in the Senate. He said: Neither
major party can claim to have
pursued a stable or consistent
program Of international Coop
Grafton even during the relatively
brief period of the last As years.
Each has its season Of world out
look-sometin1es an imperialistic
one-and each its season Of strict
isolationism, the congressional
leadership of the party out of
power usually blindly opposing
the program of the party in pow
er, whatever it might be.
IF we were to say that Repub-
lican leadership destroyed the
League of Nations in 1920, we
must add that it was Democratic
leadership that broke up the Lon
don Economic Conference in
1888"
The League Fight.
Turning to the fight over the
League of Nations in the Senate,
Mr.. Willkie said that the "irrec-
oncilables," the bitterenders,"
who stood out against the rati-
flcation OF the League covenant
in any form had no party COM
plexion. In its leadership the
name OF the Democratic orator,
James A. Reed (of Missouri,
occupies as conspicuous a posi-
tion as that Of the Republican,
Borah (of Idaho)." He attrib-
uted the defeat of the League in
the Senate not only to the ir-
reconcilables, but also to Presi-
dent Wilson, who would not
agree to reservations backed by
the so-called mild reservation
lists" In the national political
campaign which followed, he
said, neither Of the major par
ties, In their national platforms.
stood altogether for or Alto
gether against the treaty. Anti
League Democrats were able to
stand on their party's platform,
and pro-League Republicans
found ample standing room on
the Republican platform. 1t was
only after the election that the
Republican victor, President
Harding, declared that the
League was dead.
Mr.. Willkie insisted that he
did not believe a majority OF the
American people at that time
wanted the country to stand
aloof from the rest Of the world
or to avoid responsibility for
world peace. They were be-
trayed by leaders without con.
victions who were thinking In
terms Of group vote catching"
he said.
He has been . consistent de-
mander that the Republican party
abandon once and for all the
policy Of isolationism. When the
war has been won, this country
must use the full force Of its in
fluence to plan and establish
continuing agencies under which

But it is known that Laval, who
Is using Marshal Petain merely
as puppet to keep the French
people in line, has had long daily
conversations with Hitler's repre-
sentatives and spectacular de-
cision is expected.
