France if there could be an understanding between the chosen representatives of France and the regular army under de Gaulle. Unfortunately, this unity does not exist. De Gaulle is a symbol, in whom every man sees what he wishes to see. The moderates believe him to be the supreme leader of the French forces. By some, he is regarded as a general of the Popular Front, while to others he is simply another Bonaparte. General de Gaulle is aware of this fact and will undoubtedly act accordingly. The moderates will not support an alliance which moves in a direction opposed to France's democratic heritage. The above summarizes the opinion of our informant. William J. Donovan Director |
