...Cordell Hull, in a radio broadcast (see p. 23), promised the Committee "every opportunity to undertake civil administration" in liberated France (subject to General Eisenhower). By this promise Hull seemed to grant the Committee's most important demand. But General Giraud was still unhappy. The Allies' dethroned protégé sulked and brooded over his "humiliation," threatened to quit Algiers.

He charged incidentally that she had demanded $150,000 from him. Miss Berry was the umpteenth* Chaplin protégée. For her he bought Paul Vincent Carroll's religious drama Shadow & Substance, but the picture was never produced. Last January, Beverly Hills police arrested Miss Berry on a charge of annoying Chaplin; she was given a 90-day jail sentence (suspended) and then ordered...
