FIRST URGED PEACE Vichy Pamphlet Disclosures
The bitter tone of recrimina- tion against Britain which char- acterised so many carlier French utterances and writings is absent from # Vichy Government- approved pamphlet telling the inside story of events leading up to the French collapse.
M. Charles Riebel, a member of the Foreign Affairs Commis- sion of the Senate. Is the author.
M. Riebel reveals that it was" Gen. Weygand., successor to Gen. Gamelin as Commander of the French forces, who, as early as Jane 7, first urged the Government to ask for an armis

or Arst to Bortenux and then to Africa.

Gen. Gamelin's incompetence is branded as chiefly responsible for de- feat. President Lebrun is stated to have said to M. Riebel after the Government's Aight to Tours: "Would to you believe It? Gamelin cane see me only a few days before we lett Paris, praised his own strategy. And said that he would have done exactly the same if he were begin- uing the campaign over again."
BRITAIN MAKING MORE SCIENTIFIC INSTRUMENTS
A triumph over their German rivals is announced by Britain's scientific instrument makers.

Before the war Canada invited the world to compete for a sur- veying aneroid required by Dominion's Geographical Survey Department. They asked for an cury. The Germans said it was impossible. They flatly refused

Two years' special research, have been put in on it, and now the makers are able to disclose the fact that they have done ten times better than they were asked to do. They have achieved not the 0.02 inches of accuracy but 0.002, or one-tenth of the error allowed by the specification. "We lost heavily on it," salt & member of the firm, "but the re- search we did has been of immense value."

The latest figures are cloquent of Britain's new supremacy. Before the war she was exporting about third the quantity of scientific in- struments sold by her German rivals. During the first nine months of 1940, she sent overse more than £000,- 000 worth, an actual increase of al- most £100,000 over the first nine months of 1939.
President's Wife Fights Colour Bar

owns.

Scrap For 300 Destroyers
Half a million tons of scrap Iron and steel-enough to build 300 destroyers or 7,000 heavy tanks-will, it is expected, be discovered as a result of the national survey of derelict pro- perties, being made by the Ministry of Supply Iron and Steel Control.
Local government officials of more than 3,000 bodies are carrying out the survey. An Index is being pre- pared of old buildings, mines, bridges, machinery, railway tracks and other property
where the scrap metal can
be obtained.
Rathway tracks laid by German prisoners in the last war have been listed, and the survey includes waste material from buildings which have been damaged in nir raids.

New Plane Location
Finder
~ |
Commercial aviation has ad. vanced another step forward with the announcement that United Air Lines, oldest, air transportation in the United States, has perfected an aero- pinne location finder after more than four years of research and development work.
Through use of this device, ground stations can now deter- mine by radio the exact position of a plano in flight regardless of weather conditions and regard- less of whether the plane is fly- ing over a chartered course.
Main fenture, of the new device is a large inetallic frame antenna locat- ed on top of a building and rotated by an electric motor. Each time that an airliner transmits by short-wave radio, the signal is received by the frame antenna,
Equipment connected with this an- tenna by means of a telephone line putomatically indicates the bearing of plane on a chart in the dispatcher's office. Also, two or more stations equipped with the antenna and re- carder can work together in trinngu- lating the plane's position so as to inform pilots of their exact location.
