BIX HERALD AND NEWS Friday, July 27. 194S T ESTIMONT II T PETAIN TRIAL SICKS GOUR T (Continued From Pale One) committed an odious abuse of confidence. . "It Is certain that at Vichy, we had only Pierre Laval be fore us. He led all the man euvers. Whether he acted on orders of the marshal, I don t know." ( Blum said Pctain first enter ed the Daladier government after former Premier Edouard Harriot suKEested it. In relating the decision to abandon Pans to the oncoming Germans, he testi fied. . , "I said Paris not only was the capital of France; it was everything." , . After the government had fled to Bordeaux, Blum tesii- "Military leaders felt that all resistance had Become useless. They seemed to feel as though France had lost all her capacity, all means of resisting. Up to that time, there was an over whelming majority 01 me gov ernment favoring resistance. Then the Cliautemps proposal had its effect." Armistice Probed It was Camille Chautemps, another former premier, who broached the question of an armistice, "From the moment the arm istice was introduced, I had the impression that great pressure almost forced the cabinet to accept it," Blum said. "A num ber of us decided to leave France. My bags were packed and ready. The government was to have gone on June 20." Blum said that when he, Her riot and Senate President Jules Jeanneney reached Toulouse to sail, "we learned that the gov ernment had decided against leaving and all departures were cancelled." Blum said he was "near tears" when he read the armistice terms for the first time the next morning. "I saw France torn in two," Blum said. "I learned that unique in our history France had agreed to surrender those who had sought refuge with us." Blum said that, in his opin ion, "Petain betrayed the re public of France. The former premier said he followed the Petain government to Vichy and worked for a while there in fear of (Jacques) Dor- iot's men, in fear of the Gcr- . mans, and in fear of Petain soldiers. Then Blum was ar rested and taken to Riom. "The supreme court was to try us on the same chargesfor which we had already been con victed and condemned by Pe tain himself without even hav ing been heard. Blum testified adding that Petain "attacked me and villified me for the past live years. After Blum was cross- examined briefly, Roux testi fied. He was named secretary general for foreign affairs by Reynaud on May 21, 1940, "at a time when we expected at any moment to be attacked by Italy." Roux said the Reynaud ap peal to Mr. Roosevelt for the American fleet to start action "excluded the possibility of send ing American troops to the con tinent. ' Roux said he never heard Pe tain or Gen. Maxine Weygand commander - in - chief of the French forces, discuss the de sirability of calling an armis tice while the government re mained in Paris. Bv June 15 however, he said the armistice nad become an acute question Lt.

Thomas, son of Mrs. George Bell of 69 Pine, was reported to have died of wounds received in action on Okinawa. He died on July 8, according to word received from the war department. DBENGINE MAKERS BACK ON JOB TODAY (Continued from Page One) Bines. Patterson said in a state ment in Washington. "The sup ply of those engines is so short that the B-29 attacks on Japan will be reduced within a matter of days if these strikes continue. That will mean an unnecessary prolongation of the war." The entire Japanese empire has been unable to stop the heavy B-29 attacks on Japanese war industries," Patterson said in his statement, but he added that the strikes in Chicago and New Jersey "will stop those at tacks unless the strikes are ter minated at once." B-29s Reveal Air Strikes On Nips Imminent (Continued From Pago One) submission and was convinced of the futility of fighting fur ther. From Manila came report that Japanese leaders were pre paring the country for surrender before invasion. Washington buzzed with rumors and specu lation of prompt surrender. Churchill commented the end of the Pacific war "may come much quicker than we have hitherto been entitled to ex pect." Move Ahead Regardless of what Emperor Hirohito's advisers actually do, the allies went ahead with plans to turn loose their full military might which the Potsdam de claration said "will mean the inevitable and complete destruc tion of the Japanese armea torccs and the utter destruction of the Japanese homeland." This, the PoUdmn ultimatum said, is the only alternative to unconditional surrender of the mikado's armed forces, elimin ation of the propagators of the Pacific war, and a return to democratic principles. Tokyo noted the "conspicu ous" absence of Stalin's signa ture on the ultimatum and in terpreted the defeat of Church ill's government as a sign' of al lied disunity. But Clement Att lee announced in his first state ment as Britain s new prune minister that "the first thing we have to do is to finish the war with Japan." The United States will throw 7.000.000 troops into the task said Gen. Jacob L. Devcrs, chief of army ground forces. Only a fraction of them will actually be on the firing Hue.

White said it was "dif ficult to conceive that anything new can be said" about the charter. , , However. Senator Morse (R Ore.) served notice he would object to any limitation on de bate, declaring "I'm going to keep the forum open." Morse said he had no objection to working late today and early tomorrow in an attempt to con clude the discussion. Opening the fifth day of de bate, Senator Tunnell (D-Del.) said senate approval of the charter would commit the United States to furnish troops and equipment to the proposed inter national organization to help keep world peace.

From the air. all cultivated land is a patchwork quilt. Here the patches arc tiny, each separated from the others bv hedges or stone walls. Here and there are villages, with now and then a large farmhouse, sur- rouncica uy cottages. It is early not yet sunup maybe 4:30 a. m., you guess, (all time at sea is guesswork so far as passengers are concerned. Thero are no definite time zones, as on land.) But the sight beneath is too fascinating to miss. You scramble into your clothes, head for the dressing room and find that everybody has had the same idea at the same moment. . QUT over the Irish sea, speckled with ships and here and there an island all brilliant ly green. Then England a gently rolling England, green, but not quite as green as Ire land. But lovely indescribably lovely, with an odd air of PEACE. There are airfields, sometimes as many as three or four in sight at once, and train ing camps, but you know that the buzz-bombs are dead and the German planes grounded. Even from a mile up, you sense the ABSENCE of the tenseness of fear that gripped this island for nearly six long years. From the air it is still a patchwork, but the patches are larger than Ire land. Then down at Poole, on the south coast, in a sheltered bay that is still alive with the after math of war. Of which more later.
