Strategic Move

General de Gaulle spoke of the links between the real Syria and the real France and said the Allies entered the country for strategic reasons to prevent the es ablishment of a regime that was a form of modern slavery.

Recalling the British Govern- ment's statement repudiating all political alms in Syria, he declar- ed the simultaneous action by the Free

A. B. TURNS FILM STAR

An ordinary able seaman, Billy White, is the screen's newest star, writes Reg Whitley, "Daily Mirror Film Critic.

He makes his highly success- twenty-minute documentary film made by the Crown Film Unit.

Acted entirely by a cast of actual seamen-they found Billy White aboard a ship returned from China--it is a real-life drama of a convoy.

Has His Revenge

a

Billy joins ship which is mortally hit, and is rescued by lifeboat "I'll get my own back,' he says.

So he joins another ship, takes up a gunnery course, makes a perilous voyage through a mine- field and then spots a U-boat.

There is a crash of guns-and Nipper, A.B., has his revenge.

A simple story of our gallant seamen, but with more genuine thrills than

many a full-length feature film.
