Sokolsky Russia s greatest defeat the Victory of general Charles de Gaulle is undoubtedly the greatest defeat that Russia has known since the russian revolution of 1917. In the first place All j the world was Given to believe that i the algerians were absolutely of i posed to France hated France i wanted to be free from France. The algerian vote to remain part of j France was 3.356.169 for to 118,615 1 against. This included algerian j moslem. The russian opposition to de Gaulle took hold Only in Guinea j where the Premier is a marxist j otherwise a 11 French colonies voted in the referendum to re j main part of France. De Gaulle s i judgment was Correct. While there is an algerian hide i pendent movement it did not show in the votes. For years and years tile excuse for All Frances weaknesses was the \ terrific strength of the French communist party. In fact it is the French communist party that exercised a control Over the United i states communist party Jacques Ducios the French Leader stating i tile ground rules for the american j party. J ooh the strength of the French com j Monist party did not show up in i the referendum in fact districts i that have for years been regarded j As communist controlled did not i vote against de Gaulle in a word.

The new Constitution can kill the influence of the French communist party altogether. In Tho first place under it France can switch from proportional representation to majority Rule. If that happens. France will enjoy the two party system similar to that which exists in the United states and great Britain. It would mean that the splinter parties would disappear and that the communists to hold any position. Would have to become the principal party in opposition the referendum vote on the Constitution would not indicate that the communists hold any such position in Fiance today. Goo furthermore subversion will not he tolerated under the new Constitution. Such a picture As Thorrez presented some years ago when he became ill. Will not be permitted again. With All tile medical facilities available in France or in any nearby country he was flown to Moscow to be treated and for recuperation apparently because the communists feared that he might talk under an Anaesthetic then after a prolonged period of hospitalization and cure in Russia Thorrez came Back to France. And the question arose in Many minds As to whether Thorrez is a citizen of France or of soviet Russia. And that question must arise concerning communists in All countries who accept the discipline of Russia of course it is True that even under the two party system com 1 farm Law keeps Corn rate at $1.36 j sentenced on charge Washington up a a Quot one Way provision in farm Law today saved Corn growers who complied with Federal acreage allotments thus year from a 4-eent-per-Bushel Cut Iii their Price support rate.

If it leads to determination of a Cut in supports under the formula pushing prices up and Down with variations in Supply however the preliminary rate stands As final. Department officials explained today that the preliminary rate figured on the basis of the amount of Corn on hand last april was 77 per cent of parity. By oct. I however supplies had risen enough to Call tor a support of 75 per cent of the current parity or $1.32. Under the Law. The Cut was discarded and the $1 .6 rate remains in effect.
