Vichy-an attitude which some
commentators said was vindicated
in the North African coup.
But when the famed pro-Nazi and
anti-British admiral himself was
won over to the Allied cause bl

that he was to walk side by sidt
with the Americans was announced
the storm really broke.
Vandenberg Backed Britain.
At various times, members OF Corr
gress arose to state their opiniok
and at least one-Senator Vande.S
berg, Republican, of Michigan,
spoke out openly in favor of backing
the decision of the military officials
in charge of the North African ven-
ture, even if it meant playing along
with Admiral Darlan.
Anti-Darlan spokesman contended
that by lining up with the former
Axis collaborationist, American lead
ers would undermine the spirit OF
the underground" in occupied coun-
tries and arouse distrust on the part
of some of our Allies.
Those who took the opposite view
held that the alignment with the
French admiral gained time and
saved lives in the North African in
vasion, and thus was justiflable.
They commended military chieftains
on the spot were qualified to judge
the wisdom of the move and should
not be "hampered" by internal strife
over the case.
The storm was still raging when
the assassin's bullets ended Admiral
Darlan's life.

An assassin's bullets have put an
abrupt end to the nost-discussed
and neutrality-suspicious. career of state
craft and international intrigue
that the new World War has pro-
duced.
Admiral Jean Darlan, the self
appointed chief of state" in French
North Africa. was shot down as he
entered the commissariat where for
just over month he has labored
with Allied forces which until bare
weeks ago had considered him as,
at best, a co-worker with their Axis
enemies.
The pistol shots served only to
emphasize the divergence between
those who rated Admiral Darlan as
one of the arch-turncoats of all his
tory-a man who served first the
conquerers of his country and then
turned back to his former allies
only when they had captured him
and others who had rated him as an
astute horse-trader who saved what
he might from the wreckage of
France and seized the first oppor-
tunity to renew the battle against
the Axis.
Career Was Strange One.
Admiral Darlans career in itself
was as strange as its end. A sailor,
he began his career as an actual
fighting man in land action lead
ing, marine gunners in the first
World War.
A product of the French naval
tradition, he appeared only as a
seagoing fighter for many years and
WIS catapaulted into international
politics On big scale only by de-
feat. -
The son of a family of navy ira
ditions, Admiral Darlan entered the
Ecole Navale at the age of IS.
On graduation in 1902 he left for
China, where he stayed two years.
Promoted to ensign in 1904, he
was graduated first in his class from
the Ecole de Canonnage (gunnery
school, and returned to the Far
East.
Promoted to lieutenant in 1912, he
was chosen as an instructor aboard
the Jeanne D'Arc, training ship for
young officers.
January 3, 1918. the Minister of
the Navy gave him official COM
mendation for bravery in the fire
which occurred aboard the Jeanne
D'Arc october %, 1912.
Commanded Marine Unit.
In August, 1914, on the outbreak
of the first World War, he left for
the front in command of a battery of
marine gunners. He served on the
Mouse, then in Alsace in 1915,
Salonica in 1916, Verdun, Cham
payne and Belgium in 1917, and at
Noyon and again at Verdun in 1918.
He became captain of a corvette
in July, 1918, and in 1920 was pro-
NOTED to the rank of captain of a
frigate.
In 1926 he was promoted to the
rank of captain of q warship and
served under Georges Leagues, Min
lister of the Navy, as chef de cabinet.
Later he was in command of the
Jeanne dare and the Edgar Quinet
for two years, training young Off
GERS.
Given the rank of rear admiral
in 1929, he again directed the cabi-
net militaire of the Minister of the
Navy and also the Ministry of For
eign Affairs.

ers credited with aiding the Ameri-
cans and British in the North Afri-

Regardless Of who might emerge
as the new high commissioner for

no basic change in American policy
there was expected.
During the weeks of controversy
over Admiral Darlan's status after
he cast his lot with the Allies last

Secretary of State Hull repeatedly

An ironic feature of the sudden

that it was exactly one year ago
that another sudden development on

Floridu White Teachers
Continue Court Fight
On Equal Pay Suit

Jacksonville, Fla. ULNS)-Although
white teachers of Florida are fighting
hard to block the equal pay suit filed
i'm the t. S. District Court here, the
Colored Teachers Association intends
to match each action, Thurgood
Marshall, who, with S. ID. McGill, is
counsel for the cOlored teachers, said.
The white teachers filed Feb. 10, a
petition to intervene in the suit against
the board of public instruction of Du-
val County. against whom Mary White
Blocker, on behalf of herself and other
colored teachers is taking action.
Judge Louie w. Strum of the L. $.
District Court, denied the petition, and
the white teachers have announced
their intention to appeal. An answer
to the appeal will be filed, Marshall
said
Judge Strllm. in denying the peti-
ton, said that even if the court should
order the board of public instruction
to raise salaries paid to colored teach
crS and if that should result in reduc
ing white teachers salaries, this
would be no sufficient reason To deny
the cOlOred teachers the relief to which
they would otherwise be entitled. If
unlawful discrimination is being prac
ticed by the board, it would be no an
swer to say that to discontinue it
would result in lowering the white
teachers salaries"
