men, notably Frenchmen, are political animals. For them some rallying point at which they can plan, discuss, blueprint the future is essential.

Sundered and wracked as France and her spirit now are, factions could easily spring up, mutual- ly antagonistic, mutually recriminatory. Surprising

is it that they have not done so: a tribute to the innate wisdom and civili- sation of those exiles. All but the floating scum of emigres form daily a more solid body, held to- gether by an overriding belief that men can live only if they are free to have an enemy.

WASHINGTON, July 21 (Reuter).-Germany is planning new steps of aggression against the remaining independent states of Europe. The United States had information of this, stated the Under-Secretary of State, Mr Sumner Welles, at a press conference to-day, but he did not go into detalls.

Mr Welles disclosed that the United States had promised full support to Bolivia in the event of (17) international incident arising from an alleged attempt- ed Nazi coup in Bolivia and the expulsion order against the Gor- man Minister.

Franco Answered

He said that in assuring Bolivia of support, he pointed out that under the existing Inter-American Agree- ments, the German Minister in Bolivia would also be persona non grata in the United States.

"French and Germans do not mix much socially, If a Frenchman wished to enter- tain a German, he would do so at home rather than in a public place, as. this would make him unpopular with his fellow-countrymen.

"Paris has Had many alarms, but never, any raids. I saw two pamphlets dropped by the R.A.F. One advised people to take cover during raids, at the same time saying that only military objectives would be attacked. The other exhorted French people to re- sist the Nazis and to have confidence in final victory.

"There was one exciting day at the end of November,

when I heard people shouting. in the streets and saw, high in the sky, two planes. Across the sky they wrote the word 'Courage' in huge letters, then turned. and flew home before German chasers arrived.
