Romodier Due to OTTER
Western Staff Plans

! PARIS, Oct. 2 (P,.-French De-
fense Minister Paul Ramadier is
expected to submit to the French
cabinet early next week plans for
an international general staff Of
the Western European Union.
The international staff will have
the task of organizing and integral
ing the defense Of Britain, France,
Belgium, the Netherlands and Lux
embourg. 1t is to be headed by a
permanent chairman, or chief OF
staff, with land, air and naval COM
ponents under joint command.
/ The British cabinet has approved
Field Marshal Lord Montgomery Of
Britain as the chief of staff. How
ever, no five-nation announcement
! has been made.
French officials said Mr.. Ramadier
could not completely commit France
to the plans until they had been
approved by the government. They
added that no announcement on the
chief of staff and his three COM
manders can be made until this
approval is given.
1t has been predicted that Gen.
Alphonse JUN, who led French
troops in Italy and North Africa
during the war, is the favorite for
land commander. The naval and
air commanders are expected to be
British.

Montgomery Reported
Only Interim Choiee;;
u. ). Selection Seen
By Paul Gholi
Foreign Correspondent Of The Sior and
the CHICAGO Doilx News


PARIS, Oct. 2.-Marshal Mont
gomery's nomination making him
top military man in Western Europe
is only provisional, according to
French military circles.
The commander in chief of the
Western forces must and will be an
American general, but his appoint
ment cannot be made before a new
administration in Washington
comes into effect next January.
A message was sent from Wash
ington to Paris last week saying the
United States felt that the defense
of Europe should not be leaderless
at this period. 1t was upon receiving
this news that the military COM
mittee of the five powers sitting in
Paris agreed upon the British mar
shall.
Sometime early next year it is
likely the committee will suggest
the appointment of an American
general as commander -in-chief with
Lord Montgomery retaining the es-
sential functions of co-ordinating
Western defense.
Opposition to Montgomery.
The French have the deepest ad-
miration for the brilliant British
marshal but they, like some other
members in the Western group, feel
that his temperament may not al
ways make decisions easy for him.
Some malicious tongues here and
in London even pretend the insis-
tence of the British Labor govern
ment for the appointment of Lord
Montgomery can be partly explained
by a desire to shift him from his
functions as head of the general
staff of the British Army to an
even more glorious international
assignment.
The violence of Gen. Charles de
Gaulle's denial that Europe's de-
fense could be assumed from Lon
don-in a press conference yester-
day-can be. linked with a story
current in some well-informed cir
cles. Gen De Gaulle, the rumor
goes, had hoped for the appoint
ment of French Gen. Billotte, now
in Washington, to the job con-
ferred on Lord Montgomery.
It is said the general had re-
ceived assurance from Rene Mayer,
old supporter of De Gaullism, that
in case he became war minister in
the Queuille government he would
push through Gen. Billotte's ap-
pointment. Mr.. Queuille, however,
preferred to appoint former Socialist
Premier Ramadier who couldn't re-
fuse the appointment of Lord Mont

pressed hard during the meeting of
the committee last week in Paris
for the rapid execution of military
plans set up by the London COM
mittee. The French feel that an
army sufficiently strong to stem a
Russian advance for at least several
weeks, should be rapidly established
in Western Germany.
The French view is that once Rus
sian sumarines and planes are
established along Atlantic coast
lines it would be almost impossible
to protect the Atlantic routes for
American transports.
The inescapable conclusion is that
Western Europe must be defended
not from Spain and behind the
Pyrenees, but right in Germany
and quickly.

An official of the Netherlands staff
with the International Bank and
Monetary Fund told Judge Aubrey
B. Fennell the woman works for
him as a domestic. Asked If he

shoulders. He didn't know what
that meant, he replied.
