Litvinov Silent, but
Is Expected to Make
Statement Tomorrow

Ambassador CASTOR Henry-Haye
of France was dining out last night
when news of the landing Of Ameri-
can troops in French North Africa
was received at the French En-
bassy, 1921 Kalorama road NV.
Efforts to locate him proved fruit
less and in his absence no official
of the Vichy government here
would comment on the invasion.
While police we're putting a
guard around the French Embassy
for protective purposes. a diplo-
matte reception was in progress at
the Russian Embassy. Ambassador
Litvinoff was at home but was mot
available" to newspapermen, the
Embassy's Press Attache explained.
When asked to comment on Pres
ident Roosevelt's statement that
the new campaign provides an
effective second front assistance to
our heroic Allies in Russia" MIR.
Litvinoff only said through an in
termediary that he had heard the
news of the invasion and indicated
no statement would be made before
tomorrow.
French Chancery Deserted.
Household personnel at the French
Embassy said they did not know
where Ambassador Henry-Haye had
gone, other than he was dining out
and was not expected to return
until late. The French Chancery
on nearby Wyoming avenue was
dark A watchman explained that
all the Embassy officials who work
there had gone home.
Mai. Edward j. Kelly, superin-
tendent of police, said police de-
tail was thrown about the French
Embassy mansion and grounds to
protect Embassy officials and per-
sonnel from possible interference or
injury, adding that he. established
the guard at the request of the
State Department..

trouble" Maj. Kelly said. How
ever, we are taking precautions.

Copy Left for Henry -Haye.
'We established police details at
the German and Japanese Embas-
sizes when they declared war on us
but we are not at war with France
and we do not regard them as
enemies" Maj. Kelly stated.
While a reporter was present, a
man got out of taxi at the French
Embassy and left for Ambassador
Henry-Haye copy of the War De-
partment press release announcing
opening of the North African front

appeal to the French to assist the

one monitor. To transport men,
equipment and supplies there were
two transports, one Of them large,
and possibly 40 merchantmen and
IL tankers. The remainder of the
vessels were not identified.
Since the Axis was fully aware Of
the departure of the convoy there
was reason to suspect that it might
be attacked as strongly as their de-
pleted air and naval resources IN
the Mediterranean would permit.
Barges Requisitioned.
The equipment of the assault
force as well as its composition was
a deep military secret, but the re-
QUESTIONING OF private barges and
boats at Gibraltar-suited for land
ing craft-was reported by the Vichy
news agency. ~.,..-.
The presence of a tanker feet at
Gibraltar, as reported by Berlin, If
correct, suggested the force might
be carrying large supplies Of fuel for
swift mechanical forces as well as
warships and planes.
The eventual objective of the
striking force also was secret, but
| the invasion obviously was geared
meticulously with 1t. Gen. Bernard
L. Montgomery's smashing offensive
in Egypt and no doubt was intended
to catch Marshal Erwin Rommel
between two fires.
The best informed quarters in
London had anticipated the action
in North Africa for several weeks
AS long ago as September the Asso-
ciated Press began pointing its COW
erage of Mediterranean and North
African events toward the eventual
revelation of the new offensive.
Staff Augmented.
Its continental staff was aug
mented and the Cairo Office became
the headquarters of an AP staff
larger than any other single bureau
in the foreign service.
In addition, the movements of sew
eral other AP staff men will be re-
vealed as operations progress.
While security considerations pro-
hibited mention of the intended
campaign by Allied observers, the
Axis obviously began to get wind
of Allied preparations. There Is
nothing yet, however, to indicate
that Berlin and Rome knew the
time, place and immediate objec-
tives of the offensive.
The most intense precautions OF
war were taken to prevent a leak.
age of the news. United States In
telligence officers in civilian clothes
were reported circulating in London
bars to prevent careless talk.
Still the Axis had inklings. The
presence of an unprecedented num-
ber of warships and transports al
Gibraltar was too obvious to be
ignored by Axis agents at La Linea
Spain, just across the ditch from
the British fortress.
For days DNB had been reporting
the gathering storm, though appar-
emily not understanding its full

A Star reporter. conducting his

reaction to the news from the Med

French Sovereignty Assured.
Again emphasizing that the AL
lied forces are active in North Africa
as friends of the French with no
intention of overthrowing Frances
sovereignty over her colonies, the
joint declaration described the AEF
landings as the first step toward
the liberation of France"
The moment has not yet come" it
said, "to appeal to the French ma
ton as a whole" for the type of
"active cooperation" being asked
in French North Africa, although
that moment is closer"
The public in France was asked
to remain on the alert" for the
"hour of national uprising (which
obviously would come with the
eventual Allied invasion of Europe.
Gen. Eisenhower's definite instruc-
tions on how the French in North
Africa might avoid bloodshed by
cooperating with the American and
British forces were given in French
language broadcast of proclama-
ton addressed to "the French ar
mics on land, sea and air in North
Africa"
"Our only objective is to defeat
the enemy and to free France, -
Gen. Eisenhower assured the Vichy-
governed forces in the areas where
his troops were moving in.
He promised mo offensive action"
against the French if they would
take the same attitude" declaring
that 1--WE shall not be the first to
fire"
Then he gave details of how the
French forces might "avoid any pos
sible misunderstanding" by flying
the French tri-color and the Ameri-
can flag, one above the other, OF
two tri-colors, by day, and shine
a searchlight vertically into the
sky by night, to signify co-opera-
tion. He also directed French
naval and aviation units to remain
idle.
Obviously, American and British
leaders had reason to hope that
the French officers in North Africa
would disregard any orders from
Vichy to resist, and throw in their
lot with the United Nations forces
when confronted with the over
Whelming show of strength.
1--WE summon you as comrades tt

emphasized.
However, he firmly warned any

from which to attack the Americas
across the comparatively narrow
sea from Western Africa"
Regardless of how much Of the
French African shoreline Is in
volved in actual operations, there
is no doubt that this is the biggest
offensive action of the war for the
United States. 1t came exactly IL
months after the Japanese attack
on Pearl Harbor plunged us into
the world conflict.
The African expedition is the
elimination of long and extensive
preparations, giving new signifi-
canoe to such preliminaries as the
trans AFRICAN air ferry route, aid
to the British in Egypt, massing of
American troops in Britain and the
Army's emphasis on training and
equipment for desert warfare.
The manner in which the news
was given out emphasized the I'M
portance attached to the action by
| the American and British govern
ments. American short-Wave radio
stations and all British stations in
terrupted their broadcasts to report
the landings. and continued trans
lations of the official announcements
and statements iniall European Ian
guages and on various wave lengths
throughout the night and early
morning.
The British radio made a point
of announcing that Great Britain is
in full accord with the American
policy statements reassurirl, the
French people as to our friendly in
tentions toward them, as well as
actively collaborating in the military
operations.
While the British and American
radio stations were broadcasting
news of the landings, the Vichy
radio kept the news from its listen
ers for several hours. The German
radio broadcast a report. datelined
London, which told only OF the
American and British announce
ments, and there was no comment
from official Berlin sources.
The city of London, which all
week had been filled with rumors
that something awfully big" was
brewing for the week end, was elec-
trihed. A British military source
hailed the operation as magnificent
news" Fighting French sources in
London also expressed keen gratifl-
cation and one official said, 1--WE
welcome the Allied move to liberate
French territory and particularly
any move to liberate the real Fight
ing France"
