Vichy Radio. Obeys The Nazi Voice

› VICTOR SCHIFF

BY

Former Paris Correspondent Of the "Dally. Horald"

THE rapid evolution of the Vichy Government to- wards full-blooded Fascism is clearly reflected by the daily news bulletin broadcast by Radio Lyons, the main wireless station in unoccupi- ed France.

On International and military news Lyons has become merely the parrot- echo of Berlin and Rome.

All that has changed for the worse. As in all totalitarian countries the French State wireless is now cynical- ly misused for abusing defenceless opponents.

Thus in announcing the "adminis- trative Internment" of leaders of the Lett, Radio-Lyons makes scornfut and anti-Semitic comments.

This question is in the minds of many men in the Forces.

Captain Roy Clark, Royal Artillery, is trying to answer it.

He has placed before Wey- mouth Rotary Club and Wey- mouth Chamber of Commerce a voluntary training scheme for soldiers, and several employers have promised support.

-Captain Clark wants to see the idea extended to all parts of the country--and the Empire...
