D, EW YORK, N. Y. JUNE, 1940 PRINTED IN THE U.S.A. ~209 WHO BETRAYED FRANCE? , BY ANDRE MARTY Parliamentary Deputy of Paris THE awful and terrible war is extending in depth and in- tensity. Its hideous onslaught has already destroyed thou­ sands of human lives. Immense terror-stricken throngs are sweeping along in flight as during the hours of ancient bar­ barism. "Total" war is bringing the "crosses of war" even to the cradles. The French people did not and do not want this war. They were driven into it against their will. And the very people who drove them to slaughter compel the French soldiers to fight with odds of two to one against them. Why? Because army divisions and air squadrons are mount­ ing guard over the Pyrenees, the third frontier. For the menace of war from Italy implies the possible entry into action of airplanes and the 150,000 Italian troops at present stationed in Spain with their enormous supplies of war mate­ rials. With Franco's army added! And to think that it would have been possible to have had in Madrid a People's Govern­ ment based on, and directly controlled by, the Spanish people, the natural friends of the French people! Even if that had 3 not saved peace, the French people would today have pos­ sessed absolute security on their Pyrenean frontiers. Who could doubt for a single moment that this People's Government at Madrid would have placed the enormous mineral and industrial riches of Spain at the disposal of a similar government of the French people? Who could doubt that the French people would also have had at this tragic moment the inestimable support of the great and enthusiastic Spanish people who proved themselves capable of supreme sacrifice for the ideal of progress, liberty and peace? Why is this not so? Because at the time when the people of Spain were advancing in a mighty people's movement towards liberty and well being and were destroying the foun­ dations of all social, political and intellectual reaction, there were French Ministers who smashed this movement and cast them into slavery. These men are Blum, Daladier and Bonnet. Consciously, ddiberately, persistently, they placed the interests of the French people behind those of Anglo-French finance. Yes, the soldiers of France are now fighting with odds of two to one against them. Again why? Because there is a whole army in Syria, including Australian and Indian di­ visions. What are they doing there? Is it to defend France or to serve the interests of the British oil kings and other sharks of their type? Yes, the French soldiers are inferior in numbers and sup­ plies. But again, why? Because the French Government-and especially Daladier, Bonnet and Blum-delivered to the German Government the Czech Maginot Line in Sudetenland, a line that was capable of holding forty divisions in case of war! Because these very people-and this does not excuse p~ople like Benes 4 -yielded up the huge industrial and military centers of Czechoslovakia. Because in March, 1939, Daladier, Bonnet and Blum, at the instructions of their boss, Chamberlain, gratuitously handed over to Germany in Czechoslovakia 1,582 airplanes, 501 anti-aircraft guns, 2,175 pieces of artillery, 785 trench mortars, 468 tanks, 43,876 machine guns, 114,000 revolvers, 1,090,000 rifles, more than 3,000,000 shells, more than 1,000,­ 000,000 cartridges, and along with this a tremendous quan­ tity of bridge-building materials, sound detectors, search­ lights and motorized vehicles. Soon afterwards they handed over to him gold belonging to the Czech Government and deposited in London and Paris. Why did people like Daladier, Bonnet and Blum display this attitude of continually and systematically arming rival im­ perialists and quite obviously urging the latter, with increasing energy, on to war? To understand this one has only to reread in the official Yellow Book of the French Government the note written on March 19, 1939, by Robert Coulondre, French Ambassador to Berlin, in an official report to the Minister of Foreign Affairs. (The document is entitled: Annexe 10, No. 80. Re­ produced, among other things, in a special issue of ['Europe Nouvelle, dated December 23, 1939; p. 1434.) "I would like to try ••. to discover in what direction the pressure of German dynamics can he exercised, to examine if we can still consider these dynamics as directed exclusively towards the East, and to draw some practical conclusions for our conduct." A precious admission: Daladier, Bonnet, Blum, Reynaud and others were persistently preoccupied with the desire to 5 turn Germany eastwards, against the Union of Soviet So­ cialist Rep4blics. These gentlemen deliberately sacrificed the interests of the people of France, the security and even the independence of the country for the benefit of the financial, reactionary French-British oligarchy. On the other hand, why were huge supplies of armaments delivered to the Poland of the Becks with such speed by Blum and Daladier? Why were thousands of millions of francs advanced to these corrupt Polish militarists, thieves and liars, whom the French taxpayer still continues to feed with a golden spoon? Why was this reactionary Polish state-the oppressor and plunderer of peoples-endlessly in receipt of these "financial injections" which the Polish gentry immedi­ ately transformed into bestial orgies, while the French un­ employed and Polish immigrants were pitilessly driven to starvation by the stroke of a pen of a Pomaret* in order to amass th~se treasures? The very earth of Poland answers: All fortifications of im­ portance were built facing the U.S.S.R.! But that did not prevent the official press, led by Leon Blum's Populaire, from brazenly attributing the disaster that befell the reactionary Polish state to the entry of the Red Army into Western Ukraine and Western Byelo-Russia, where it brought peace and liberty to 13,000,000 inhabitants. Naturally, they kept silent about the role of Colonel Beck and others who had sold their own people! And that is not all! The smallest child understands that a modern army without airplanes is doomed to destruction, and * Charles Pomaret, Minister of Labor in the French Government in 1938. 6 that there are no fighting planes without that light metal, aluminum, extracted from bauxite, which France possesses in huge quantities and of which Germany has infinitely small supplies. Yet, during these last years this precious mineral has been sold to Germany at a pace that grew in proportion to the increasing ferocity of the blows dealt by Daladier and Blum to the People's Fronts in France and Spain. German boats even came to load at Toulon, before the eyes of the French Navy. And Monsieur Daladier was Minister of Na­ tional "Defense" and War! All this proves that the foreign policy of the capitalist government of France, at an ever-growing pace, since 1936, has been strengthening reactionary Germany economically, politically, industrially and, subsequently, militarily, in a con­ tinued eff{)rt to turn its government against the Soviet Union! And all this evidently at the expense of the peace al'l.d security of France, but to the advantage of Franco-British high finance. Those mainly responsible for the present war and for the misfortunes that have befallen the peoples are Daladier, Bonnet and Blum. They have been branded by the open in­ sult of the stunning resignation of General Faucher. ** * Then came the cataclysm, resulting from this policy of sys­ tematic sabotage of peace by the governments of Paris and London. At first there were eight months of "phony warfare." It is evident today that contrary to their campaign of bluff about defense of the country, Daladier, Blum and Bonnet were preoccupied with quite other thoughts. 7 What thoughts? Let us take, for example, the Finnish affair, which proved the marvelous foresight of the Soviet Government and also the extraordinary technical capacity of the Red Army. At that time, in France, the whole of the press (headed by the Socialist press), like the official radio broadcasts, proclaimed the enemy to be not Germany but the U.S.S.R.; Daladier announced in the Chamber that he had sent to Finland 179 airplanes, 472 pieces of artillery, 795,000 shells, 5,100 mao chine guns and 200,000 hand grenades-so much less for the French Army-and that he had prepared a force of 100,000 men, happily saved by the peace initiative of the Soviet Government. But there is worse to come. Modern death-dealing machines demand above all copper and iron. But copper is arriving, and does not cease arriving, in Germany via Italy, from one of the richest mines in the world, the Rio Tinto mines in Spain, the capital of which-almost entirely British-is quoted at three times its 1939 value. And the "British grand fleet" lets it all pass. As to iron, "to prevent Germany from getting it from Norway," the French Socialist Minister of Blockade, Mon­ net, the trusted man of Leon Blum, cynically violated Nor­ wegian neutrality, dragging that country into war, and making it necessary to send French soldiers there.

    French Involvement and Solidarity in South West France with the Spanish Republic in the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) Oliver Astington, BA (Hons) Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Master of the Arts in Modern Language Studies December 2010 1 Acknowledgements Although the research for this thesis has been based on individual research, I would like to thank all those who have in many ways funded, facilitated and enabled this research project to be successful. I am grateful for the kind support of the University of Nottingham School of Modern Languages and Cultures for part funding my research and providing me with excellent support from the staff at the Postgraduate office to the academics of the Departments of French and Francophone studies and Spanish, Portuguese and Latin American Studies. It has been a pleasure to have discussed and presented my research, as well as learnt from the experience of academics and peers alike within these departments. Special thanks must go to Dr Gareth Stockey who encouraged me throughout the project and allowed it to develop so successfully, having benefitted from two of his courses on the Spanish Civil War as an undergraduate from 2008-2009. I would also like to thank Professor Nick Hewitt for his advice on the Front Populaire in France and whose course on the Front Populaire and Culture from 2008-09 provided me with the foundations for many aspects of the French side of this study. I must also thank the staff at numerous departmental archives across the South West of France, whose time and advice was greatly valued in finding so many intriguing documents for my viewing.

  • Le 7 Mars 1936
    LE 7 MARS 1936 On s'explique mal que l'histoire courante, même quand" elle nous est contemporaine à une génération près, comme celle des dernières années de la IIP République, puisse abriter certaines lé­ gendes qu'un simple examen des faits et des dates suffit pourtant à dissiper. y Une des plus tenaces, dans l'opinion moyenne, a trait à l'oc­ cupation par Hitler de la zone démilitarisée de la Rhénanie, en mars 1936, et à l'attitude du gouvernement dans cette circonstance mémorable. Il est peu de Français, parmi ceux qui s'intéressent encore à la politique, qui ne s'en tiennent, de très bonne foi, à la version suivante : A la nouvelle, le samedi 7 mars, que la Wehrmacht vient d'en­ trer en Rhénanie neutre et de s'y installer, Albert Sarraut, pré­ sident du Conseil, prend sur lui de faire diffuser, le jour même, une déclaration de bravoure : « Nous ne laisserons pas Stras­ bourg sous les canons allemands !... » Mais Voici que, le lende­ main, les ministres réunis à l'EJysée, après une discussion ora­ geuse où quelques-uns d'entre eux — les « durs » — poussent à une action de force immédiate, tandis que les autres, et notam­ ment le ministre de la Guerre, n'entendent recourir aux armes que si l'on est prêt à décréter la mobilisation générale, décident à ta majorité de s'abstenir de toute intervention, désavouant ainsi le chef du gouvernement et mettant la France dans une posture d'autant moins honorable que le succès d'une opération militaire eût été, en l'occurrence, assuré.

    H-France Review Volume 2 (2002) Page 543 H-France Review Vol. 2 (December 2002), No. 135 Kenneth Mouré and Martin Alexander, Eds., Crisis and Renewal in France, 1918-1962. New York: Berghahn Books, 2002. vii + 312 pp. $75.00 U.S. (cl). Notes, list of contributors, and index. ISBN 1- 57181-146-X. Review by Irwin Wall, University of California, Riverside. Any compendium of essays presents unique challenges to the reviewer, and this one is no exception. The hardest part is finding a unifying theme. Of course the authors offer one: they argue that unlike Stanley Hoffmann's lament about the 1930s, when the "stalemate society" caused France to collapse, today France has met the challenges of the modern era: it is a stable industrial democracy with a high standard of living, one of the few very privileged countries of the world. The essays in the volume are devoted to showing how particular challenges or crises did or did not result in the necessary "renewal" in the political and social development of modern France, with the implied happy ending. There is a sub-text, too, purporting to demonstrate that where crisis was not met, and change was successfully opposed, crisis nevertheless served to break down resistance to renewal. But nations are almost always in crisis, and they are always responding to crisis and attempting renewal; it would seem that is what politics is all about. France had 120 cabinet "crises" alone during the seventy years of the Third Republic's existence. Crisis was endemic and permanent in all walks of life; it provides the broadest and hence least meaningful of conceptual frameworks, and yet it still is not enough to unify the essays, for the authors only episodically frame their essays in terms of crisis and renewal in the first place.

Eichler Welwyn Garden City, Herts G e r m a n y s p e a k s [Heft 5,] 28th January, 1942 [Seite: - 1 -] [Germany] Hell A doctor who has just returned from Russia where he has been employed in the German Army Medical Corps, reports: "I had expected to use there modern war surgery, to be able to widen my own knowledge and experience since the Germans have the reputation of using the newest scientific discoveries in all spheres. But even the most urgent necessities were lacking; supplies were fully concentrated on arms and ammunition, and hospital needs were almost completely neglected, there was even a scarcity of anaesthetics. I stood once in a room with fifteen soldiers screaming with pain, on whom amputations of arms or legs had to be performed in full consciousness." Losses of Aircraft A German Flying Officer declared a few weeks ago: "Our aeroplane losses on the Eastern Front are in fact enormous, the Russians have told substantially the truth. The reason for these losses lies however not so much in the superiority of the Russians, nor in the fact that the German High Command has used the machines recklessly. The main cause of the great losses must be attributed to the transport system, which was not in a position to supply essentials such as spare parts for repairs. Thus it happened that damages to the apparatus which could easily have been remedied could only be patched up in a makeshift way, which resulted in many crashes and in any case considerably shortened the life of the machines." Battle of the Atlantic Questioned about the general war situation the same officer said: "Neither our reverses in Libya nor the retreat in Russia troubles us very much.
