Conservative military leaders here estimate' that "there are 100,000,000 persons in the occupied territories of Europe who are willing to risk their lives an an all-out uprising against Nazi domination. In the forefront of this vast army are the Norwegiian, Belgium and French undergrounds; General Mihailovich's Chetnik army in Yugoslavia; the behind- vhe-lines guerillas in Russia; the Poles and Czechs and Greeks who are fighting Nazi dominations with everything in the book. Perhaps there are millions of these who in their, little way are apparently as cooperative with the Axis authorities as Admiral Darlan has been. Perhaps there are other millions who are only waiting until can see their way clear to throw off yoke.
