j Paris only twice while in the six
| years since Germany formed its
own government, it has sent rep
I resentatives at least 20 or 30
! times. "This,” he said, "marks
a great change in the attitude of
; the two governments."
Three Opinions
During the lecture Ouiringuad
j refuted three, what he called
' "preconceived opinions of French
government."
In regard to the first, the in
! stability of the government, he
| pointed out that though France
| has had 21 governments, "they
really only represent two or
! three." The three political parties
i in France which have caused the
various changes in government
| are the Independent Christian
Democrats and Radical Social
ists.
Catching Government’s Eye
Speaking on a recent refusal of
some French people to pay taxes,
Ouiringuad explained that "they
were only trying to catch the
eye of the government. It was
not an attempt by all the peo
ple to avoid paying taxes but a
movement of about 800,000 peo
ple who are heirs of a different
economy than that of the 20th
Century. The small town shop
keeper who found it difficult to
pay his taxes protested and cer
tain provisions were made by the

. government to clear up this in
i justice.”
The third preconceived opinion
about French government is that
: it is riddled with communist sym-,
pathizers. Ouiringuad refuted -
this by pointing out that the
Communist influence in France |
has been steadily decreasing. In
the last election there was a
Communist vote of from 18 to
20 percent, "bat this was a vote1
not for the Communist party but
against the government by dis-!
contented people.” Ouiringuad re
assured the audience that "the
Communist vote will get smaller
and smaller.”

Amazon Co-op Sales
Up 50% Under Denson
Business at the Amazon Co-op
is on the upward trend this term,
according to A1 Swanger, presi
dent of the Co-op Board of Direc
tors.
Since the appointment of Dale
Denson, junior in business, as
manager last March 7, sales have
increased by over 50 percent and
the Co-op members are looking
to a bright future.
An election currently is going
on for members of the Amazon
Co-op Board of Directors. Five
candidates are in the race, and
three are to be elected.
Candidates are Norman Peter- ;
son, junior in geology and former
store manager for a year and a
half; Jim Robertsan, graduate in
psychology; Robert Fick, grad- j
uate in economics and presently
on the board; Lee Butkus, junior
in foreign languages, and Orval
Cary, junior in business admin
istration.
Financial difficulties, which
plagued the Co-op during the
winter term, had caused the Co
op Board of Directors to hold a
meeting at the term’s end to
decide if the Co-op should con
tinue.
The Co-op had lost close rela
tions with the people on the
Amazon project. Competition
came from a near-by market
and the Co-op was having man
agerial difficulties.
The board voted unanimously
to continue the store and decided
to conduct a membership drive.
At the end of this term a gen
eral membership meeting will be
held to find out if the project
members want to continue the
Co-op and its benefits.
Publication of the News-Let
ter, a weekly containing Amazon
project news and advertising,
was resumed this term and has
helped in rebuilding interest.
