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

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."

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.

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

said senate approval of the
charter would commit the United
States to furnish troops and
equipment to the proposed inter

you say Eire, pronouncing it
"Ayra.") It is GREEN, unbe
lievably green. Emerald Isle is
no mere figure of speech.
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.

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
