QUICK HELP NEEDED
THAT FRANCE MAY LIVE AGAIN. An*urgent appeal to help France before it is too late is made to the United Nations by “Bir Hakeim,” a French clandestine newspaper. “Come to our help, come immediately,” says Bir Hakeim “the soonest you can, for soon there will be no more healthy French left to welcome you, to take their place in your ranks and fight beside you with all their might with that heroism which honours French tradition. ‘Every day some of us are dying in the prisons of Vichy. “You must know that a whole people, thirsting for liberty and vengeance, is waiting for your landing to regain its rights and to help you drive German and Italian this time for good from its territory. But, we repeat, there can be no further delay. Families are weeping at the departure of their children—who go to the railway stations shouting, ‘Laval to the gallows'— leaving their country by thousands for Germany. In the name of all resistance we cry out to you. 5.0.5., so that tomorrow France may live.”
