We wish to dispel these attitudes.
The services feel that the hardest
fiobting is yet to be done, and we
know that the Navy urgently needs

ton totaling slightly more than 12,-

|Bricker Says Much
New Deal Spending
|Bypasses Congress
BY the Associated Press.


CHEYENNE, Wyo., Oct. 23.-Gov.
John w. Bricker, urging greater
control over the use OF taxpayers
money, asserted today that Govern
ment corporations had spent huge
sums never appropriated by Con-
gress.
This, said the Republican candi-
date for Vice President. is in con-
fornity with practices by which
"the New Deal has constantly sought
to rob Congress of its control over
Government spending"
The Ohio governor, who devoted
today to campaigning in Wyoming
and Colorado, added in speech re-
leased by his staff:
There Is vital need in WASH
ington for greater control over the
spending OF taxpayers money. This
will not be done by an administra-
ton drunk with power and bent
upon making another reichstag and
rubber stamp out of our Congress. Z"
Describing the peoples money as
trust money" which Should be
wisely spent and carefully account
ed for" Gov. Bricker declared:
"The Republican party pledges it
self to closely guard the Nations s
pocketbook and to preserve our
financial integrity"
The vice presidential nominee will
deliver another major address at
Denver tonight. Besides Cheyenne
other appearances on his itinerary
today were Laramie, Wyo., and
Greeley and Brighton, Colo.
Abstaining, as usual, from po-
litical campaigning on the Sab
bath, he spent yesterday in Salt
Lake City, where he attended the
broadcast of the Mormon Taber-
nacle choir, visited the Temple
Square of the Latter Day Saints
and saw the Great Salt Lake and a
copper mine.
He was accompanied by Vernon
Romney, Utah Republican State
chairman, and Nels Smith, former
Governor Of Wyoming, close
friend.

The departments ruling appears
to open the way for the return to
Paris of all American businessmen
having legitimate reason for be-
ing there. Before the war, most of
the large American corporations
maintained branch ofIices in the
French capital.
The recognition is on outgrowth
Of Gen. de Gaulle's conversations
here last summer with President
Roosevelt and Secretary of State
Hull. Although refusing at that time
to give the French leader full diplo-
matte recognition, plan was worked
out whereby his committee was rec
ognized by Gen. Eisenhower as the
supreme civilian de facto authority
in areas behind the military lines.
Billion Funds Tied Up.
Among the practical results OF
United States recognition will be
the right of the French authorities
to lay claim to French funds which
have been tied up in this country
since German troops overran the
French nation.
The French funds which have
been tied up in this country are
estimated at about 5000, ,000, 900 cred
tied to the Bank of France. plus
several hundred millions more of
private funds, making the total far
in excess of 81 ,000, 0,0OO, 900.
The State Departments action
was announced in the following
communique:
The Government Of the United
States has today recognized the
French de facto authority estab-
lished in Paris under the leadership
Of Gen. de Gaulle as the provisional
government Of the French Republic.
A communication in this sense has
today been addressed to the provi-
sional government. Mr.. Jefferson
Caffrey will, if agreeable to the pro-
visional government, assume the
duties as Ambassador to France.
This action on the part OF the
United States Government is In
harmony with its policy toward
France as publicly enunciated from
time to time by the President and
the Secretary of State.
"As the Secretary of State in his
speech of April 9, 1914, stated, it
was always the thought of the Presi-
dent and himself that Frenchmen
themselves should undertake the

Oct. 23.-Constitutional government
under the American nag formally
was restored to the Philippines today
by Gen. Macarthur while warfare
still surged near Tacloban, the tenn
porary capital.
Cheers Of liberated Filipinos min
gled with speeches by Gen. Mac
Arthur and President Sergio Os-
mena.
I'VE are here in this capital city
Of the province OF Leyte," said Gen,
Macarthur, "to establish under the
protection of American arms the
foundations of your commonwealth
government and thereby initiate the
restoration to the Philippine peoples
Of the sacred right of self-rule."
He announced all laws of the Phil
ippine commonwealth government
again are lin full force and effect
and legally binding upon the peoples
Of the areas Of the Philippines free
of enemy occupation and control"
The stirring ceremony was on the
steps of the white stone Leyte pro-

Gen. Macarthur and President
Osmena rode up from the harbor
jetty together.
You can still hear the echo. Of

country and that this Government
would look to the organization ther
known as the French Committee Of
National Liberation to exercise lead
ership In the establishment Of Law
and order.
I'm accordance with this policy
agreements were entered into be-
tween the supreme Allied COM
mander and the de facto French
authority, headed by Gen. de Gaulle,
covering the administration Of civil
affairs in France and other related
subjects.
| TN accordance with the pro-
cedure envisaged in the civil affairs
agreements an interior zone has
been established to include large
part of France, including Paris. The
agreement provides that in the in
terror zone the conduct of the ad-
ministration of the territory and
responsibility therefor will be en-
tirely matter for the French au-
thorities.
To-day the vast majority of
Frenchmen are free. They have had
opportunity during recent weeks to
demonstrate their desire to have the
duties and obligations Of govern
ment assumed by the administra-
ton which Is now functioning in
Paris and which has been recon-
stituted and strengthened by the
inclusion of leaders of the valiant
forces Of resistance within France.
"The intention Of the French au-
thorities to seek an expression of
the peoples will at the earliest pos
sible date, following the lepatria-
ton Of French prisoners Of war and
deportees in Germany, has been
made known on different occasions.
Pending the expression Of the will
of the French people, through the
action of their duly elected repre-
sentatives, the provisional govern
ment OF the French republic in its
efforts to prosecute the war until
final victory and to lay the founda-
tions for the rehabilitation of
France, can count on The continued,
full and friendly cooperation of the
Government of the United States" "
Full Member Of Allied Group.
As result of recognition, 1t is
assumed that Gen. de Gaulle soon
will name an Ambassador to Wash
ington, and that the French En-
bassy, once the mansion of John
Hays Hammond, empty for the past
two years, again will be the scene
Of diplomatic festivities as it was
in prewar years.
Recognition by the United States
ard the other great powers again
places France as full member of
the Allied group. as 1t was before
the war. When Gen. de Gaulle
was here last summer he spoke
fervently of Frances right again to
become one of the great powers
and to assume leadership OF its en-
pire throughout the world. He also
emphasized the desire of his country
to take leading part in any post
war plans for the policing of Ger
many.
