Fuehrer's Words Put Into Voice Of His Puppet Laval
Disclosures On Pierre Laval Are Given To Public For First Time
Hitler Helped Him to Get Back Into Full Control
 of France
(By The United Pressl

The behind-the -scenes story of how Pierre Laval tricked and bluffed his way back into power in France was disclosed for the first time today i'll private advices to the United Press. Committed. to an eventual aggressive" attack on Free French territories especially along the vital Allied supply route in Africa. Laval apparently was aided by Hitler or Nazi agents in schemes and threats that broke through whatever resistance still was left in 35-year-old Marshal Henri Philippe Petain.
 The keynote of Laval's scheme was threat that all of France faced Nazi rule under Gauleiter in Paris, that the Gestapo would take over from the German occupation authofities and that Germany, Italy and Spain would permanently take over most of France.
 These threats-reflecting Hitler's urgent efforts 10 bolster precautions against an Allied invasion in the west--took effect at Vichy so quick ly that Laval and Hitler were caught off guard, advices to the United Press said
 99 Per Cent Detest Him
 These advices also said that o9 , per cent of the French people "de- llest' LRyals pro- German policies Fstsid 2iaut fteirorisM ArG harsh re- presslon--already spreading in oc- cupied France-can be expected to increase.
 This deep hatred, 1t was said, might again make Laval the target of an assassin's bullet, such as the attack upon hls life at Versailles last summer. C.
 Laval was quoted in the private advices as claiming that he would never, for his part, precipitate q break in relations with the United States.
 This statement, like others made by Laval in the past two years, might indicate that the new French chief of governments bitter hater of everything British as shown by his radio speech Monday-will be the instrument of . German att tempt to drive Q wedge between Britain and America.
 From his statements as contained in the private advices, including protestations that no U-boat bases would be surrendered to Germany, it appears that the next few weeks might produce for the French peo- pie some concessions from Hitler in an effort to win support for Laval.
 Then, it was believed, any prog ress that might be made to over come the French peoples hatred would be followed by the real Nazi demands which the Allies fear perhaps a demand for French mili- tary aid.
 Laval was said to be pretending that Adolf Hitler will give him more latitude in pursuing peaceful rela- tions with the United States than was given Petain.
 It was added that he was prepared to give guarantees that no French island or other part of the French empire would be used as submarine

 Another contingent, the rest of the city's April quota, will leave soon. Representing Board 16-A and l6-B, it will be somewhat smaller than today's group. The city's May quota of draftees will outstrip this months.
 Mayor Scully Speaks
 Mayor Vincent A. Scully called on the young men to "carry on in the army as you have in your home city" He urged them to take ad- vantage of the free mailing privi- lege to write home often. You are another splendid contribution from Waterbury, he said, ito the army that will win the war and preserve our freedoms. Keep smiling, ana good luck to you"
 The Selective Service Mems com mittee distributed army kits and military manuals to the draftees.  Chairman Frank w. Orencole of the committee spoke brief farewell to the group.
