The Fighting French
By RaOul AQliOn,

0y nuOUt HgL1On. fHenfy HOLt. J
This Is the first specific account OF
the achievements of the Fighting
French movement which the review
er has seen to date. There have
been earlier works on the subject,
1t is true, but they have mainly dealt
with aims and potentialities. Here,
however, we have a list of things
accomplished, catalogued under ter
rltorlal heads and covering all fields
OF warlike action. The finding is
impressive. 1t makes it plain that
the French people, wherever they
may be found, did not acquiesce in
the surrender. Had the French gov
ernment followed Gen. de Gaulle's
proposal and elected to continue the
war from the empire, there can be
no doubt, from the response which
had been given the Fighting French
outlawed by Vichy, that the resist
ance would have had wholehearted,
pugnaclous support. In that case.
the war might be over today, for,
as Mr.. Aglion points out, the African
campaigns and the Mediterranean
fighting would then have been un-
necessary.
The story is substantially that of
single man-Gen. de Gaulle, who,
when he began his one-man war on
Hitler was private refugee to Eng
land without money-or even an
extra suit of clothes. From that
point OF low fortune he has built
up an army, a navy, a merchant
marine, an air force and consoli-
dated a territorial domain of vast
size. Mr.. Aglion describes step by
step the means which the general
employed, the organization prevail
ing In his movement and the gains
made. What he establishes is that

Meditation and Water

! Rivers and the Inhabitants of the
Watry Element were made for wise
men to contemplate, and fools to
passe by without consideration" If
you wish to align yourself with the
wise men by studying the piscatorial
art, you might consider Dame Juli-
ana Berners' "Treatyse of Fys-
shynge Wyth an Angle" originally
published in 1896. This Is not, how
ever, the last word in print on the
subject, and you will doubtless find

nature in such books as Ben Robin

and Oliver Rodman's Handbook Of
Saltwater Fishing" Of local in
terest is the writer's programs curl
GUS and useful little compendium
The Anglers Guide for Washing
ton and Vicinity"
Finally, it is we'll to remember
that the felicitous union of water
and meditation informs many of
the worlds literary masterpieces.
Three of the greatest books in all
| literature have been mentioned or
quoted from above. Each will bring
to you deep, If vicarious, expert
ence of the power of the meditative
element. You may live for a while
with Henry Thoreau beside wal
den' and look with him into the

with Capt. Ahab, you may search

Short Cut to Toxic
By Coreu Ford. rs,

BY Corey Ford. (ScribnerSD
This is brief history of the
American resistance to Japan's at
tack in the Aleutian Islands. The
author has visited our posts in that
territory and is full of enthusiasm
for the fine work and heroism of our
men out there. He feels that we
do not understand the difficulties
of their job. and he writes with fer
vor to bring the truth home to us.
He informs us that the Jap at
tack was by no means a surprise
to our forces. Gen. Buckner of the
Alaska defense command had FORE
seen that an effort would be made
to take our naval station at Dutch
Harbor, and Immediately after Pearl
Harbor had advocated construction
of two new airfields which would
make it possible to base planes near
enough to the Navy stronghold to
give 1t air protection. Washington
had delayed permission, says Mr..
Ford, almost until too late. Gen.
Buckner's fields were no more than
completed when the Japs struck
According to their calculations,
Dutch Harbor had no protecting
airfield nearer than thousand
miles and they could play free
hand. But Gen. Buckners FORE
sight stopped them. They turned
back. But for that quick action. in
Mr.. Fords view, they could have
picked Dutch Harbor like ripe
plum. and from that base they
could have harrassed our cities from
the air as far East as Detroit.
Instead, they are dug in today on

The Ministry of Fear
BIZ Graham Greene. "

By Graham Greene. Viking
PreSs)
This is a pleasant thriller-not a
detective Story-on the wicked do
ings Of Nazi agents in London
Arthur Rowe. hammered
Briton of middle age, wins cake
in a guessing contest in street
fair. Efforts are promptly made to
get the cake away from him. He
is first cajoled and then threatened
1t turns out, however, that a tragic
occurrence in Arthur's past has de-
prived him OF the power to feel fear
and so he proves a poor subject for
threats. The Nazis, who will have
that cake or bust, then try to do him
in. There is very nice bit of horror
when he gets roped into spiritualist
seance, and the doors are locked and
the lights extinguished. and Arthur
knows that the room contains one
Nazi, at least, and maybe more. So
the plot goes on thickening. 1t ends
happily, of course, and the Nazis do
not get the cake-or the important
object which the cake contained
while Arthur does get the girl.
One thing the reviewer does object
to, however. and that is the failure
of Mr.. Greene to say what kind of
cake 1t was. To her mind. there is
no such thing as just cake. Was 1t
fudge frosting? Or was 1t angel
food? Any reader, she submits. has
a right to know.
