COURAGEOUS STAND
TRIBUTE TO BELGIANS GENERAL'S COMMENT (P.A.) WELLINGTON, this day. The Belgian Consul in Wellington has received advice that General de Gaulle addressed Belgians in occupied Belgium over Radio Belgique, London. He paid tribute to the courageous resistance of the Belgian people, and said he saw in that resistance proof of Belgium's strong national unity and an assurance that Belgium would survive the war and resume her place in the world of to-morrow. He spoke appreciatively of the assistance given by the Belgian Government to the French National Committee, and recalled the comradeship existing between soldiers of the two countries. He also referred to the way in which the Belgian and French African colonies had worked together against the common enemy.
