France.
Petain's protest did not indicate
at least on the surface-any in
tention to oppose actively the Nazi
occupation.
Petain's actual words were:
L have received during the night
a letter from the Fuehrer inform
ing me why he had been obliged
to take measures which have the
practical effect of suppressing the
foundation CT the Armistice.
Il solemnly protest against these
decisions which are Incompatible
with the terms of the armiStice." ."
Should the Vichy government
choose to regard Hitler's action as
superseding the Franco-German
armistice, the status of relations
between Germany and Vichy would
revert to the pre-armistice phase
in other words, state of war.
Petain's language did not indi-
cate that he was prepared to go
that far and there was nothing in
any reports from Vichy or from
the Axis radio TO indicate that the
German occupation of previously
unoccupied France had been inter-

of Hitler's decision to gobble all of
France in one gulp.
(Although there was no announce
ment of activity from London, radio
Paris left the air in midday, indi-
eating that the British and Ameri-
can air forces might already nave
begun a systematic bombing of
French objectives)
The RATS -motored Lam
casters and Sterlings and power
full American flying fortresses and
Liberators are fully capable of
bombing virtually any part of
France.
They are in position to attack the
French naval base at Toulon in a
twoWay hammering. Home-based
planes can cross France from Brit
ish air ports while others strike
across the Mediterranean from
Gibraltar.
Rapid air attacks on vital objec-
tives in Germany's newly occupied
France should bring big dividends,
because anti aircraft and fighter
opposition in the early stages was
likely to be at minimum.

MEDICINE
ar THE FRONT

Nevada State JournaD
One Of the pronounced Developments of
this war is the strides made in life-saving
drugs and remedies. Already some dis
coVerieS have been put to use with notable
results.
Probably the most important of the
discoveries on the medical front is penl-
cillin, which is reported to be giving indi-
cations Of being an even greater boon to
humankind than the sulfa drugs. Penicll-
lin is germ killer made from fungus
mold 1t is 100 times more powerful than
sulfa drugs and less toxic than any of
them Effective in dilutions as great as
one part in 00,000000 it can be injected
directly into the veins and will check many
bacteria against which sulfa drugs are
Ineffective One of these is the germ
causing gas gangrene, a scOurge OF the
battlefield.
Despite the higher effectiveness of
penicilln, the sulfa drugs are rendering
great service at the fronts. Blood plasma,
the dried white cell portion of human
blood and blood albumin, concentrated
fraction of human blood even less bulky
than plasma, are together bringing the
life-saving benefits of tranSfusions to the
front lines. Vitamins are being used
freely to promote wound healing.
The wounded in this war have better
chance of getting well, more will recover
quickly and there will be a smaller pro-
portion of permanent disabilities than in
any war in which America was previously
engaged, the reports indicate.

Nuzi Invasion Seen AS

Hitler's problem is manifest. He
no longer is in the position of being

voluntary" is rapidly becoming the
most abused word in the official Ameri-
can Interpretation of the English Ian
guage.
Washington tells us we're doing thing
voluntarily Often we go to jail if we
don't do it-but still they insist it is
voluntary. The reasoning is a bit OBJ
scure, perhaps, but the facts are not.
They tell US censorship of war news
is voluntary. But it has not been SO long
since the federal government tried to in
dict Chicago newspaper before federal
grand jury for printing story which,
they said, was banned under the ''volun-
tary" censorship code.
This new manpower program Paul Nc
Mutt has recommended will be, according
to the War Manpower Commission, en-
tirely voluntary. Well discuss it later at
some length, but for now we'd like to see
what you think. Did you read the propos-
ed program? We did. Did you find any
thing voluntary in it? We didn't

ment quit abusing words, and begin call

Editorials and Comment
CORRECTION

We believe in placing blame where it
is due, and by the same policy, dislike
extremely to place it where it is not war
ranted Therefore our limited apology
goes to the Imperial county war man
power commission, because of yester-
days editorial in the adjoining column.
The man whose case was cited in that
editorial, as attempting to WELD an un-
justified local censorship, is not mem
Der of the manpOwer commission, but
is a member of the Imperial Valley Farm
ers Association. Because of the close
connection between the two agencies, he
was able TO suppress, or attempt to sup
press, news from both organizations. The
only blame attaching to the manpower
commission was that he was allowed to
dictate in any way what news in connec-
tion with it should be released for pub
iication.

fered with in any way by the
French authorities.
However, it was abViouS that the
Vichy governments control over the
situation was tenuous and that the
popplace, already famed to fever
pitch by the American action IN
Africa, might at any moment take
matters into their own hands.
Hitler, it was evident, was casting
aside any further consideration for
the Vichy government and making
his decisions from basis of plain
military urgency.
With American troops rapidly
mopping up French Africa and driv-
ing full tilt toward Tunisia, with
his favcrite general, Marshal Err
win Hommel falling back into Lib
va. beaten and battered, with the
Allies on the verge of winning full
control of the Western Mediter-
ranean seaways, Hitler appeared to
be striving desperately to build up
some protection against Allied as
sault on the Axis Achilles heel-the
"sofe underside of Europe
Frances Mediterranean coast and
the extended coastline of Italy.
Whether Hitler could get away
from his full military occupation
of France without touching off
massive uprising by French patriots
was uncertain.
From the military standpoint the
dispatch of Nazi forces to TLnisia
seemed more Immediately import
ant than the southwark push of
Nazi troops within Fronce itself.

FACTS ON FILE
(San Rafael independently

There's challenging truth in the asser-
tion of Rubber Gar William NJ Jeffers,
that Just as essential as getting the
worker to the factory is to see that the
farmer can till his soil, reap his crops,
and get his produce to market :. Our
aim is not to take automobiles, trucks
buses or farm equipment out of active
service. Rather our aim is to keep them
in service until the day when we will
have an adequate supply of rubber sub
stitutes"
This is talk which all Californians can
understand and approve. We're ready
to do our part in observing speed limits
and in conserving tires-measures to keep
US rolling until the inexcusable failure
to undertake the manufacture of SYM
thetic rubber earlier can be atoned for.
The people Of California ask only the
means to make their great resources
available to the war effort. Our useful
ness, Mr.. Jeffers, depends on the wise
and thorough understanding of our spe-
cial problems.

PAVING THE WAY FOR
THE BIGGEST BLOW

It is hard to overestimate the import
ance of the Allied actions IN North Afri-
[, ca If nothing else, it is definitely the
first United Nations action in this whole
war which might be termed an aggres-
sive offensive All others-even those in
Russia and the Solomon ISlandS-haVe
been at best merely defensive offensiVes.
The Solomons campaign, as an instance,
was launched in the first place to defend
our supply lines.
1t is different story in North Africa.
There we are. like a boxer, getting sci to
land a knockout blow. We have seized
1.-THE initiative so that we can strike, not
that we can prevent the enemy from
-striking at us
1t would be a grave error, in our view
= TO look upon the North African OffenslVeS
las standing alone. The Americans in
French North Africa, and the Imperial
troops in Egypt and Libya, have won
smashing victories. We believe they will
place all of North Africa under United
Nations control within a comparatively
few weeks. Their efforts are not going to
''end the war. They will, however, contri-
+, butte largely to ending it-and therein
--lies the Importance of the North African
Campaign.
Control of North Africa means control
of the Mediterranean Under United Ma
tions control, Mare Nostrum can become
the lower half of gigantic front circling
from Gibraltar on one end to Murmansk
on the other. This front, shaped roughly
like great sickle, would be open to sup
plies all along its route. Additionally,
it would provide many roads for supply
ing, also, the Far Eastern armies now op-
posing Japan.
~ This great, curving front would serve
to keep the Italians momentarily fearing
Invasion from the south, and the Ger
mans of necessity on guard toward the
south, against the Russians on the east,
s-sand against possible allied move up
from the Near East.
The Allies are in position even now, of
/, course to strike against the Axis from
the west and northwest when the hour
comes The French coast, the Norwegian
-rcoast and the Danish coast remain points
Hitler must guard for his very life.
With North Africa in United Nations
hands, there will be no single direction
from which the Germans are immune to
attack The Allies will then be able to
'-choose not only their own time, but their
own place for the great blow which must
be struck before NaZism is smashed
There can be no more doubt that we
are getting ready to strike that blow.

Bombs to Answer
HitIer's Attack

LONDON, Nov. 11-UP)-Allied
air experts believed today that
the first reply to Adolf Hitler's
march into unoccupied France was
likely to be delivered by the big
bombers of the Royal and American
air forces.
1t was known that Air Marshal
Sir Arthur T. Harris, chief of the
RAF bomber command. has a care
fully prepared list of factories
throughout the French unoccupied
zone. Those know to have been
turning out military supplies for
Germany had been marked for at
tention at some future date.
There was little doubt that, as
Hitler's hordes took over all OF
France, the entire French industry
would be converted to his war eff
fort For that reason, it was eX-
pected that factories in the unoc-
cupied zone would soon be given
the same treatment accorded arms
factories at lie Creusot and Renault,
or the outskirts of Paris, in re-
cent weeks.
The large-Scale raids were eX-
pected to be speeded up in view

EMPTY GESTURE
The only sop Hitler offered France
for his protection was permission
for the helpless Vichy government
to transfer its seat to Versailles
Hitler's desperate move was eX-
pected to give the United Nations
the following benefits:
l.-UnificatiOn of all Frenchmen
Outside France on the allied side.
Abandonment by French fore
es of the relatively weak resistance
they have offered against American

Establishment of tens Of thous-
ands of trained French white and
colonial troops to fight the axis
and possibly voluntary alignment OF
French West Africa and Dakar, on
the Allied side.
STRAIN ON AXIS
Additional strain on the axis
military machine by forcing it to
fortify and try to protect Frances
400 mile Mediterranean coast. The
German army also must police an
area almost as Large as previously
occupied France.

tinue to function.
6.-Possble acquisition by the al
lies of the French fleet.
The following advantages were
seen for the axis as a result of the
occupation:
Plugging of the invasion gap
offered the allies by the previously
unoccupied French Mediterranean
coast.
2.-BolStering of Italian morale.
3.-PoSsibility of forcing French
men to work in German war factor
les although Pierre Lavals recent
experiences in trying to draft skilled
workers clearly showed that Hitler
will meet stiff resistance here.

North Africa is an equally desper-
ate move. Unlike such previous
Hitler operations as the invasion

The Tunisian move seems design
ed primarily to delay the advanc-
ing Americans and help save the
remnants of Marshal Erwin Rom

Libya. Hitler also must have some
forlorn hope of saving Bizerte, the
powerful French naval base in
Tunisia, which in Allied hands
would be a dire menace to Sicily
and the coast of continental Italy.
