''the state has given its solemn

in 1888 Governor Ehringhaus de-

D'CAULLE TO BE
FRENCH GOVERNOR

LONDON, April 10. Up Gen.
Charles De Gaulle's Committee OF
National Liberation is to be given
control of the civil administration
of liberated France under an agree
ment now in the final stages OF
negotiation between the United
States and Great Britain, it was
learned tonight.
It is planned that there shall be
no Allied Military Government in
France
This picture of the French situa-
ton was gwen by an informant
directly concerned in the French
Allied question:
The French committee will be
given military recognition as the
official authority Of liberated
France, but it will not be accorded
diplomatic recognition as the gov
eminent of France.
This will be accomplished by CIV
ing Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower,
Allied Supreme Commander for the
western invasion, a directive en-
powering him to deal with the
fighting French as civil admins
Aeators of France.
The directive will bar any deals
with the Vichy regime except to
liquidate it. It will. however. have
a clause leaving Eisenhower free
TO deal separately on military
basis with any resistance group
which is disinclined to associate
itself with De Gaulle.
There will be no Allied Military
Government in France. AS soon as
the territory is freed and no long
er is the scene of direct military
operations it will be turned over
to the De Gaulle for administra-
ton.
Territory which still is the scene
for operations will be governed by
the commanding general in that
area-regardless of his nationality
who will have French liaison Of
ficers carry out his orders.
In the liberated territory the
French committee will be able to
carry out purges in its civil ad-
ministration as freely as it sees
fit and as long as the action does
not interfere directly with military
operations. Eisenhower will judge
whether military operations are be-
ing affected by French civilian &C
