In some quarters here, the belief was expressed that Weygand might be strefigthening the French forces in that theaire for just such a pur- op Bug there also has been 8 tion that his mission is to prepare the defence of these French colonies against the Free France forces of Gen. Charles de Gaulle. However, should Petain quit Vie chy. for North Africa, it was be- lieved here that the old marshal could command the immediate sup- port of Weygand and the colonial forces under him, and that events also might bring a reconciliation with Gen, de Gaulle. While considering all of these possibilities, government officials were more immediately concerned with the prospect that Vichy, on the other hand, might desire to respond even more to Axis pres- sure and promises, FRENCH FISHERMEN ARE IN DIRE NEED (Continued from Page 1) raised by visitors, approximately three times their number, the men have been living in their vessels, which Briere sald lacked sufficient stores for the winter. A report circulated in Boston waterfront circles that two of the French trawlers had gone to Syd- ney, N.S. and had left, presumably for Gloucester, Mass., with 1,500,- 000 pounds of salted codfish, but that they were two weeks overdue. Absence of the vessels led water- front observers to theorize on whe- ther they may have changed their courses in an attempt either to run the British blockade of Continental Europe and return to France or to contact the Free French forces of Gen, De Gaulle in Africa.

Four thousand men have returned to 'France but thousands more remain to be re- patriated. In the dimlit Geneva station, in the chill of pre-dawn, there were such tabieaux as these: A tall Moroccan cavalry man, his red fez set at a jaunty angle above his swarthy face, reaching with his left hand for a cup of chocolate presented by a wide-eyed Swiss Boy Scout. The cavalryman's right arm was missing. A young soldier, hopping one- legged, to take a sandwich from a pretty Red Cross girl while he ad- justed the beret marking him as of the Chasseurs Alpin, famed moun- tain unit. A priest, still wearing the uni- form of an army chaplain, stand- ing at a train window, thumbing a well-worn prayerbcok, his face half-smiling as his sightless eyes turned toward the blank wall of the station. A poignant pause in the jour- ney home. But, for all their sor- rows they were glad to be getting home, Those well enough to stand crowded into windows to chat in swift French with the nurses, Boy Scouts, policemen and trainmen on the platform. They did not talk politics, Neu- tral Switzerland frowns on such talk. They talked only of France as the home to which they were re- turning. One man, his head swathed in bandages so thick that his mouth was exposed only when he spoke, said he had not heard from his family since before the armistice. He said his home was Dunkirk. AFL MEN GLOOMY AFTER LEWIS WIN (Continued from Page 1) been sent to Lewis--called upon labor's leaders "with the interest of the nation at heart" to find a way to peace. "That is the end of any hope for peace," said Woll in referring to Lewis' statement that 'it would be wrong' to make it appear a settle- ment was near. "But I never had much hope for it anyway. "There may be only one chance; a remote one that I doubt will happen, and that is if Sidney Hill. man takes his Amalgamated Cloth- ing Workers out of the C10. The textile and rubber workers might follow." Hillman's union, for proposing an AFL-CIO. conference on unity, was scolded by Lewis with the phrase "and now come the pierc- gamated, and they say "peace, ain't it wonderful.' To which Wnll sald: "Such in- sults. I dont see how Hillman can take them. I guess he will though." Green merely repeated what he has been saying since the conven- tion started: any C.I.O. unions wish- ing to return to the AFL. fold will be welcomed home, The resolution that would give the AFL. a war chest in time of need declared: "Happenings in the world of labor during the past year demonstrate more than ever the necessity of increasing the revenue of the AFL."

It added that 11 of the large number of Italian planes which attacked Greek troops were shot down, with no Greek planes lost. (Dispatches from Bitolj, Yugoslav frontier town near the Koritza wing of the battlefront, sald last night that casualties had been heavy on both sides in the relentless battle for the strategic city as Italians clung ' to their positions under steady onslaught. 8ix hundred Greek prisoners were reported taken, including 100 Al- banians fighting alongside the Greeks in the belief their exiled King Zog would lead a rising against Italian absorption of his country, (A member of Ring Zog's staff in London commented: "The King naturaky is following every move in the Greek fighting, but he has- n't made a decision--yet). The Greek Ministry of Home Se- curity poked fun today at an Ital- fan announcement that Fascist "land, sea and air forces chased off the enemy" in an attack on the Dodecanese Islands, The ministry sald that raid was the one it reported yesterday -- a "private affair" foray by 15 persons who live In the islands and work in Greece.

Following is the text of the pro- tocol making Hungary a member of the German-Italian-Japanese alli- ance: The governmenis of Germany, Italy and Japan on one side and the government of Hungary on the other side acknowledge the follow- ing through the undersigned pleni- potentiaries: Article One--Hungary joins the three-power pact signed in Berlin Sept. 27, 1040, between Germany. Italy and Japan. Article Two--Insofar as joint technical commissions are provided for in Article Four of the three- power pact dealing with questions touching upon Hungary's interest, representatives of Hungary will be called in for commiss'cn confer- ences.

(Hungary is in the eGrman orbit and has been linked at least diplo- matically, to the Axis group since he joined them, Feb. 24, 1939, in the anti-comintern treaty. (In Budapest and Rome, the idea was circulated that--after Hungary --Rumania and Bulgaria may be | brought into the Axis alignment, | possibly as the prelude to a new | move against Britain.) This, in the form of a German- | Bulgarian drive into Graece toward the Aegean, was regarded by diplo- | matic sources in Berne, Switzer- land, as a possibility "at any hour." In Ankara, Turkish newspapers warned that the danger of war was near.) Reports persisted in Germany that Dictator Antonescu of Nazi- inclined Rumania, who recently conferred in Rome with Mussolini, would see Hitler this week-end. These, however, still had no corro- boration. A report that Belgian King Leo- pold visited Hitler yesterday was called "not a fact."

'oday is- sued a declaration which said: "Germany, Italy and Japan con- cluded an alliance to call & halt to further expansion of the war which is severely burdening humanity and thus give the world a lasting, just peace as fast as poesible." The declaration said "big powers are fighting for the establishment of a new order promoting the de- velopment of peoples in regions to which they are entitled and in the furtherance of their well-being." It concluded: "In keeping with her unbroken and unchanged for- eign and political past and her peaceful aims and in the firm belief in the future Hungary joints the Berlin three-powers pact, She has the intention now and also at the end of the war to contribute within the limits of her power toward bet. ter and happier political and econ- omic reorganization of Southeastern Europe."

Expect Others To Join" Budapest, Hungary, Nov, 20--(AP) --~Hungary, by her admission to the German-Italian-Japanese alli- ance, has been given ag definite role in the Axis program in which pos- sible passage of Geman troops through this country is seen as an important factor in any campaign against Greece and Turkey, inform- ed sources said today. The joining by Hungary long pledged to a policy friendly to the Axis, was reported here to have marked the initial step in executing a program of the other partners to bind Southeast Furope closer to their "new order" objective. Some sald they. believed Spain. Rumania and possibly 'Bulgaria would be the next asked to join.

They were among the group fined as they were arrest- ed on two occasions last wgek.

It asked owners of large private homes to take in paying guests and more than 40 have expressed willingness to help. Just the same, one of the city's biggest real estate operatcrs is anything but hopeful. "The situation - is getting worse instead of better," he sald ~ "more people keep coming to Ottawa and there hasn't been much building going on. Houses and apartments that are built are rented before they're even completed." Mayor Stanley Lewis mere or less agrees with him.
