INCIDENT CLOSED
ACCORDING TO DIPLOMATIC CORRESPONDENT. STATEMENTS OF FRENCH ATTITUDE. (Received This Day, 9.40 a.m.) LONDON, November 25. The Lebanon incident may be regarded as closed, says Reuter’s diplomatic correspondent. The President of Lebanon, its Government and parliament are all again working and internal peace reigns. Full credit is being paid in London to the tact and resource with which General Catroux handled the crisis. M. Massigli, speaking in a foreign policy debate •in the Consultative Assembly at Algiers; said: “The achievement of Lebanese independence will be the joint work of France and Lebanon. It is unnecessary for any power to act as an intermediary.” General de Gaulle, winding up the debate, said: “Certain friendly Powers tend to be dubious about the French Committee of National Liberation, but the Committee has had. great difficulties with which to contend and is anxious to maintain its alliances. The Committee is in fact the Government of the French Republic.”
