"TAKE IT OFF"
A neutral observer recently in Vichy teUa an edifying tale of "collaboration" in that capital, While outwardly Vichy is all for collaboration, a newsreel theatre showing. Adolf Hitler recently presiding over some ceremony or other was greeted with shouts of "Take it off. We have had enough." The observer adds that so far as he was able to learn no action was taken against the protesting spectators or the management. He noted also that both the band of the admiral of the fleet (Darlan's own) and that of the air force, marching to the bandstand for outdoor- concerts in Vichy, played "You Shall Not Have Alsace arid Lorraine"—the words to which are scarcely collaborationist.
