mittee. Secretary of State Hull
said IN a speech several weeks
ago that Gen. Dwight D. Essen
hover, the invasion leader, would
deal with the committee in setting
up civil administration over
French territories but would have
a free hand to deal with any other
group should he encounter civilian
forces unwilling to accept the COM
mittee's authority.
In Algiers, the De Gaulle COM
mittee yesterday proclaimed itself
to be the provisional government
of France. The United States, Hull
told his press conference today,
has not changed it's policy with
respect to the committee, which
means that the intention here still
is not to recognize it as a provi-
slonal government until it has ac-
tually gone into France and proved
its ability to govern.
The agreements with Norway,
the Netherlands and Belgium were
all alike in that they provided:
First, that the Allied commander
heading expeditionary forces in a
liberated area should have "su-
preme responsibility and authority
over civil administration" to the
extent necessary to meet military
requirements.
and, second, civil administration
shall be turned over to each of
the responsible governments as
quickly as the military situation
permits
The only restraint on this agree
ment to return the Administrative
to the governments it the under
standing that such special facilities
as the Allied forces may continue
to require =. will be made avail
able for the prosecution of the war
to its final conclusion"

as much in the standings.

CARDS WILL LOSE
SLUCCINC MUSlAL

ST. LOUIS, May 16 -RE Stan
Musial, the st. Louis Cardinals
hard-hitting outfielder, passed his
pre-ipduction physical examination
today and joined his teammate
Danny Litwhiler, in awaiting call
to report for service in the Navy
Litwhiler has been playing on
borrowed time since April 10, when
he went through the mill at JEFF
ferson Barracks. Musial will be
able to continue with the Cardinals
for three weeks OF more until his
draft board summons him for ac-
tive duty.
Departure of the two sluggers
will leave the Cardinals seriously
short-handed in the outfield and
decidedly weaker at bat. Johnny
Hopp, the other regular outfielder,
was rejected for military servic
recently. AS requirements for Mu-
sial and Litwhiler, the Cardinals
have only average Pepper Martin,
At Augie Bergamo and LA Debs
CAIRNS.
AS sophomore, Musial was vot-
ed the most valuable player in the
National League last year when
he batted 1857 % top both circuits.
He and LitWhiler are among the
10 leading hitters this season and
their punch has been an important
factor in putting the Cardinals in
front in the pennant race.
MusiaPs pre-induction 'vaca-
ton comes at an opportune time
on the Redbirds' schedule. The
next 81 games are with the Eas-
tern clubs, which currently are not
too strong, and Musial's continued
presence in the lineup will give
the Cardinals a chance to fatten
their lead against the coming SER
vice calls.
In addition to the navy-bound
outfielders, pitcher Harry Gum.
bert has been accepted for the
army. Catcher Walker Cooper and
Shortstop Martin Marion both have
been classified for limited service,
although there is no indication that
either faces an early summons.
The Cardinals have only one other
catcher, Ken O'Dea, and only one
infield replacement, George Fallon.
