FIRST URGED PEACE Vichy Pamphlet Disclosures
The bitter tone of recrimina- tion against Britain which char- acterised so many earlier French utterances and writings is absent from a 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 Commia- sion of the Senate, is
the author.
ML. Blebel reveals-ibat it was Gen. Weygand, successor to Gen. Gamelin as Commander of the Frencli forces, who, as early as June 7, first urged the Government to ask for an armis- tice. Wergand hoped to save Parts, avoid the evacuation of the Govern- ment, and forestall a declaration of war by Italy. On June 12 Weygand seala urged an armistice to prevent the complete destruction of the French army.
Divisions were reduced to two or battalions and men were drop- three ping from fatigue and lack of sleep, The
however, "remained,
The next day, after the Supreme Council had met and learned that Mr Churchill was unable to promise more than three divisions and 72 guns, M. Reynaud's Cabinet still re- fused to accede to Gen. Weygand's demand.
Flight To Africa® Plan
M. Riebel says that the Cabinet had two plans. 'It Intended either to flee to Brittany and be ready to leave for the United States. If necessary, or go first to Bordeaux and then to Africo.
The pamphlet says that France re- Jected

dition, Gem
Germany would never have
granted on armistice.
Gen Gamelin's incompetence is branded as chiefly responsible for de- feat. President Lebrun is stated to have sold to M. febel after the Government's fight to
to Tours:
"Would you believe It? Gamelin came to see me only few days before we left Paris, praised his own strategy, and said that he would have done exactly the same if he were begin- oing 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 the Dominion's Geographical Survey Department. They asked for an inches of mer- cury. The Germans said it was impossible. They flatly refused to try.

British decided to tackle the job. 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," said o member of the firm. "but the re- search we did has been of immense value."

The latest figures are eloquent of Britain's new supremacy. Before the war she was exporting about one- third the quantity of scientific ins struments sold by her German rivals, During the first nine months of 1940, she sent overseas more than £900,- 000 worth, an petual increase of al- inost £100,000 over the first nine months of 1930.
President's Wife Fights Colour Bar

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.
Railway tracks laid by German prisoners in the last war have been listed, and the survey Includes waste material from bulldings avhich have been damaged in air raida.
