THIRST for
OIL
by Luis Araquistain
The Mongolian hordes pushed forward to find food. When they had eaten their way through one country they invaded. the next. Germany also is pushing forward for food stuffs, raw materials for food and drink for her war Leviathan.
The nectar this monster most covets and craves is petrol, Apart froth the small quantity manufactured in the country the balance has to come from outside.
The nearest is Rumanian ' oil, and to-day Rumania is a German colony. The presence - of the British in Greece threatened the Rumanian wells and to eliminate this threat Germany attacked the Greeks and Yugoslavs. But Rumanian oil is insufficient. Hiller thought that unoccu pied Spain and France, un- occupied for the moment, would be useful channels for the receipt of American oil. But the British blockade has frustrated his hopes.
There remained the oil in Iraq, Iran and the Caucasus. As the Golden Fleece guided the movements of the ancient Argonauts, oil to-day guides the Nazi movements. The insurrection was German work undertaken to obtain control of the oil from Mosul and the pipe line carrying it to Haifa in the Mediterranean.
RUSSIA'S SUPPLIES- The Italo-Nazi campaign in Libya was a strategic diver- sion arranged to protect Ru- manian wells and to minimise the British forces round the Iraq wells and also those in Iran which are near the Per- sian Gulf.. To the north of Iran lies the Russian oil of the Caucasus and the pipe fine which carries it from Baku, on the Caspian, to Batum, on the Black Sea. The transport of this oil along the Danube to Germany and Italy would be easier than that of the Iraq oil through the Mediterranean, for this is controlled by the 'British fleet.

e France Marche
With Britaine
Passive Resistance
The spirit with which the French in the Mother Country tako German ordèra is rather well illustrated in the follow- ing incident which occurred in a big town in the west.
A monument to France's dead was draped with the French flag and English emblems. The Germans removed the French flag and placed in its stead an Italian flag. The French tore it down and trod on it.
As a reprisal, the Germans insisted that two men should present themselves every day to mount guard at the menu- ment. This is a favourite German punishment. Often, after telephone wires have been cut, the male population of a town has been made responsible for keeping watch to see that it does not happen again.
The next morning, 500 Frenchmen turned up to mount-- guard. The Kommandantur could do nothing but cancel his orders, and send the five hundred home with as much speed as possible.
On All Saints' Day last year; English graves were heaped with flowers gathered by school children. The flowers were made up into little red, white and blue bunches. When the Germans noticed this. touching act, they removed all the flowers instantly.
Italians Ridiculed
The working classes in Paris are convinced now that General de Gaulle will come and deliver them from the Germans, and with patience and bearing they wait. Elsewhere, in occupied France, the Allied victory in Egypt has been respon- sible for a colossal rallying of public opinion.
-
More astonishing is the fact that the Germans of the Army of occupation in France have heard about the Allied victorics and hold their, Italian allies up to ridicule in front of the French.
Germans Morale. Low
The German Army of Occupation shows signs of being rather unhappy in its work. In spite of frequent leave, and perhaps on account of frequent leave, the morale is exceedingly low. The German soldiers' and sailors' uniforms look unkempt, and often observers have noticed a certain lack of respect between men and their officers.
The Germans drink a great deal, and aro often drunk. It is quite a common sight to see Germans leaving their posts for
a cafe, where they frequently become riotous and unsteady.
French Girl Tries To Steal Planes For Us.
