AXIS INFLUENCE
ALLEGED AMONG GIRAUD SUPPORTERS FOLLOWERS OF DE GAULLE PERSECUTED (Recd. 6.5 p.m.) Washington, Feb. 2. A Free French delegation declared to the press that General Giraud’s administration in North Africa is still persecuting and gaoling de Gaullists. Supporting these charges the delegation released two letters from Algeria in which the writers assert that most of the advisers of the United States Minister, Mr. R. Murphy, are former Axis supporters. General Giraud’s office is continuing its Vichy policy of encouraging the subordination of military to civilian personnel, while the men who aided the Allied landing and the union of the leaders have been gaoled. General Boiseau. in Oran, is posting in every staff of the Anglo-American military services Axis supporters under- the guise of interpreters and secretaries. A Free French spokesman decJared that the consequences would be serious unless the situation was redressed by American public opinion.
