The Gem- men admniaitration fl ahUicterri- tory la under Uic supreme control of Uic Army. The Chief Adniinis- trator s ssistcd by a Homne Min- ister and by an administrative staff under Uic command ai Gen- eral van Stulpnagei, hcad of Uic German military administrationl ta France. This administration contrais Uic activity ai Uic French civil and municipal services, ai- Uiough French courts continue ta opemate - cxcept ta canes whcre1 Germaus or German mnterests arc concerned. Nat inciudcd ta these five zones1 are Alsace and Lorraine. In spite ai Uic iact that Uic Armistice ternis made no mention ai any cession ai these provinces, stepsi have been taken ta tacorparate Uiem itthUi Reich. Large num- bers ai Lorraines have been ex- peiicd, under protest from Mar- shall Petain, and there have been efforts ta Germanize Uic educa- tionai services and tadustry. The civil administration han been plac- cd under men directly responsibic ta Hitler rather than under Uic army. I December it was an- naunced Uiat Lorraine would be amalgamnated with Uic Saar tnaa ncw German district. Custamas barries bctween Uic Reich and Uic two provinces have been re- maved, accardtag ta reports. The governmcnt af Unoccupied France was not stipulated ta Uic - Armistice, although Uic Germans ciaimcd contrai ofaiamaments, acrodromnes, shipping and other thinga. It was even provldcd that Uic Frenchs government rmlght choose its own capital and Uiat if Uis wms ta be Paris, arrangements would be made ta have both areas administercd from that centre.. Marshall Petain realized, lowevcr, that he couid better pre- serve his tadependence ta vichy Uian ta Gcrman-accuvied Paris. In Uieory Uic French gaveru- ment exercises internai contrai over ail France, but inaicot com- munication between thc two arcas la aimat non-existent. This separatenesa la cmphasized by Uic tact that the Vichy gavernmcnt la represented ta Paris by M. de Bni- non, who is called Uic "Ambassa- dor ai France", ad represents the 1Foreign Office. Marshall Petata's actual powers ta carrying on Uic gavernment ai Unaccupicd France do flot dcpend an the ternis ai Uic Armistice which grantcd him ex- tensive self-government. Thcy de- pend entirely an has bargatalng power with Uic Nazis, his chef cards betag Uic French ficet and Uic French colonies. As yct he han not been able ta prevent Uic export ai whatevem supplies Uic Germans want, athaugh he has been able ta ýrefuse permission for German traaps ta cross Un- .occupied France.
