De Gaulle Favored In France
! Consul Tells Emerald Reporter
By BETTY LAGOMARSINO
Should a national election be
held right now, de Gaulle would be
voted prime minister, Raoul Ber
trands, French consul-general, said
in an interview here Saturday.
Bertrand was on the Oregon
campus as the guest of the Amer
ican Association of Teachers of
French, who held a conference here
November 21 and 22. The confer
ence was under the direction of
Laurence LeSage, who is regional
president of the AATF.
“The trend of the French nation
has shifted from the left to the
I right,” the consul continued, “but
| the Red menace has by no means
j vanished.”
M. Bertrand attributed the re
| versal of French politics to realiz
j ation by the people that Commu
•’ nism is not trying to help the coun
try, but to stir up unrest and seize
power.
He cited as an example the re
cent trolley striked called by the
Communists. The workers refused
to obey the order, and the strike

Has Little Similarity
Oregon is the second American
campus that the consul has visited.
“There is little similarity between
your American colleges and the
French universities," he claimed.

phasis placed on activities, social
life, and organizations on Ameri
can campuses as well as the “whole
attitude of the students,” he added.
Mr. Bertrand was appointed con
sul-general to San Francisco in
May, 1946. His position is second
only to that of the French ambas
sador in Washington.
His first diplomatic position was
on the staff of the French delega
tion to the League of Nations in
Geneva. Next he was appointed at
tache to the French embassy in
Berlin.
Served in Morocco
At the outbreak of the World
War, he was an attache of the em
bassy in Morocco. He was called
home, and served as an officer in
the French navy during the war.
In 1940 he was a representative
of De Gaulle's “Free France” in
London, where he remained until
the end of the war. His next ap
pointment was to the Egyptian
embassy.
Previous to his appointment as
consul-general to San Francisco,
Bertrand was in charge of repa
triation in Paris.
He spoke to the convention in
French Saturday morning on lan
guages in general. Bertrand con
