Martinique Head May Yield to Change of French Authority
New York July 1 report says Martinique High Commissioner Admiral Georges Robert invited the United States to name an envoy to fix terms for a change of French authority on the island. The move aims to align Martinique with the Allies while preserving French sovereignty and non intervention by American forces. The broadcast noted Robert's request under these conditions. U S Navy watches over the island as diplomatic ties with France remain severed. Robert had previously urged joining the Allied cause and sent letters to AP and the San Juan AP correspondent protesting American action.
