REYNAUD FLYING TO U. S.
IS REPORT FROM BERLIN
London. June 17. (P) A
German radio report heard here
tonight said former Premier Paul
Reynaud had left Lisbon, Portu
gal by plane, en route to Amer
ica. The announcer said it was
believed Reynaud already was
on American soil (There was no
confirmation of this from other
sources.)

old World war "hero of Ver
dun" and the man who gave
France her watchword "They
shall not pass:" heralded French
capitulation with the declara
tion: "It is necessary to try to end
the fighting."
There was some doubt
whether France would be grant
ed a separate peace except
under term of unconditional
surrender and Hitler prepared
to meet with Premier Mussolini
to discuss the development.
Germany, it was said, would
not permit France to reorganize
her broken armies, under an
armistice with Germany, to as
sault Italy on her southern
frontiers.
Petain announced France's
readiness to lay down her arms
in a broadcast from Bordeaux.
"I made contact with the ad
versary last night, asking him
as soldier to soldier to see with
me the means to stop the fight,"
he said.
Even without knowledge of
whether the powerful French
fleet, second biggest in Europe,
would be involved in the pro
jected French surrender, Britain
voiced a grim determination to
"fight on to the end."
Complete Capitulation Aim
Authorized Nazis in Berlin
said bluntly:
"No separate armistice with
France Is imaginable, except In
terms of complete capitulation."
The Berlin radio broadcast an
official announcement that Mar
shal Petain "has proclaimed
France's capitulation."
Loss of the French fleet would
mean a serious blow to Britain's
hopes of ultimately forcing Ger
many to her knees through
blockade.
Two other small nations In the
Baltic area. In the north, felt
the tread of invaders' boots as
Russia's red armies marched into
Estonia and Latvia early today
in accordance with Moscow's
week-end demands, which were
accepted , by the little Baltic
states. Russian troops occupied
Lithuania Saturday.
The Soviet move was appar
ently two-fold:
1. To halt any possible Ger.
man thrust into the Baltic.
2. To Improve Russia's strate
gic position for possible offen
sive operations.
Edmond Taylor, a Columbia
POILUS CON
Broadcasting System correspond
ent, speaking from the same
studio in Bordeaux where Pre
mier Petain spoke, declared:
Terms Not Hinted
'The French intermediary Is
expected to be the ambassador
of Spain. What the German
terms will be, if they will give
terms, none of us know as yet."
Taylor added that German
troops at that moment were
understood to be "not very far
away from the place from which
the French radio is now operat
ing." When and if the Germans will
arrive in Bordeaux, the present
capital of France, none of us
know at the present moment."
Bordeaux is in the far south
western region of France, near
the Bay of Biscay.
The reported capitulation
came as France's great Maginot
line built at a cost of $500,
000,000 and supposedly impreg
nable was abandoned except
for a skeleton defense force and
Germany's armored legions
smashed through and around the
vast steel and concrete system
of fortifications.
