Caledonians

From Our Own Correspondent

Noumea, Oct. 26.

VICHY and Saigon radio stations con tinue to insult New Caledonia for aligning themselves with General de Gaulle and the Free French movement.

Caledonians, on their part, do not think much of the cowardly way Indo china —which they now call “Indo- Japan”—has been handed over to the Japanese. The thousands of Indo-Chinese workers in this Colony are also dis tressed at the way their French overlords have handed their own country to the enemy of China, the country to which they once politically belonged, and the country which has most influenced their own far from negligible civilisation.
