PETAIN ON PEACE
ADVICE TO UNITED STATES BRITAIN CRITICISED FRENCH NORTHERN PORTS. BEING HAMMERED TO DUST BY R.A.F. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) VICHY. September 28. "I am always ready to support President Roosevelt in any peace initiative the United States may start, and I know that the Pope also wants peace,” said Marshal Petain to a .neutral correspondent. “When the war ends the United States could make a formidable contribution to peace provided that she stays out of the war and preserves her freedom of action. “Britain’s relations with France have been a succession of psychological errors for which Britain is to blame," Marshal Petain added. “She knew that France would never use her armed forces against Britain; I pledged not to use our planes, fleet or troops against her. yet she attacked and is still attacking us. “The R.A.F. is hammering our northern ports to dust.”
