London, May 17.
Germans will probably replace the Italians on the Syria Armistice Commission. This is the next German move in the manoeuvrings over Syria forecast by the Jervsalem correspondent of the Independent French agency, News from Vichy concerning the Frénco-German agreement is causing increasing anxiety in French circles says the correspondent, Anxiety has become greater owing to the arrival of Germans with diplomatic passports, who appear to be in a position to play a more official role than their purely "civilian" predecessors, Reports, which so far have not been confirmed, indicate that the Jalan members of the Armistice Commisefon will shortly leave Syria their place being taken by German officials.—Reuter.
