France moves to tighten budget as de Gaulle aims to save franc

Paris reports Premier Maurice Couve de Murville unveils a 1969 deficit cut from 2.34 to 1.27 billion dollars with 568 million in military and subsidy reductions. Communist leader Robert Ballanger blasts the plan, warning it burdens workers, while tax hikes and production aims divert growth from imports. France plans no price freeze, vows vigilance against price rises and negotiates wage talks locally. Nuclear tests in the South Pacific are canceled in part to finance the mix, but officials say Gaullist aims remain intact.
