FRENCH STRUGGLE Resistance Assisted From London SECRET AIR TRIPS MADE (By Telegraph. —Press Assn. —-Copyright./ (Received October 24, 12.30 a.m.) TORONTO, October 22. "Full military occupation of France is not impossible,” Mme. Genevieve Tabouis, the French author and journalist, told the Service Club. She said her Information was based on recent talks with JI. Andre Philipp, the French Socialist Deputy who escaped from France and joined General de Gaulle. Mme. Tabouis declared that 90 per cent, of the French population was de Gaullist. Resistance began on the day M. Laval made his speech wishing a German victory.
Explaining how the resistance functions, Mme. Tabouis said that regular conferences were held between the Fighting French leaders in occupied France and General de Gaulle in London. PJanes were mysteriously picking up leaders in France and taking them to London, receiving instructions and then flying back. “Ex-Premier Herriot’s query, ‘Shall we allow liberty to die in the very country which gave it birth?' is receiving a French reply at the sacrifice of lives, saying ‘Liberty shall survive in France 1 Our struggle for liberation shall illuminate conquered Europe with the light of victory’,” Mme. Tabouis' said.
