o TEN MEDFOHD (OREGOrT) MAIL TRIEUIfE Thursday, November 7. 1957 o o o O G O 0 o o o o New French Premier Faces Many Of Same Old Difficult Problems By CHARLES M. McCANN United Press Correspondent France has a new cabinet after its 37-day political crisis, but it still has not got-a stable WMl government. The Nation al Assembly, the control ling house of p a r 1 i a mcnt, has confirmed Fefix Gaillard as France's 24th premier fM,f v- smce lts llb" rfairiei mcCmk erajtion in World War n Gaillard received an impres sive confirmation vote 337 to 133. Q i 1 1 y'&k He managed to get the sup- port of the Socialists, the conser- j vative bloc of Independents and the left-of-center Popular Re-! publicans as well as his own Radical Socialist Party. All are represented in the new cabinet. Gaillard calls his cabinet a "government of national unity." Unfortunately, it is not really that. The Socialists, the Inde pendents and the popular repub licans all cordially detest each other. Hence the prospect Is that Gaillard will have to perform a precarious balancing act to keep himself in office. Whether he can get the necessary support for legislation to solve France's serious political and economic problems is questionable. These problems include the future of Algeria, the keeping down of prices and wages, the budget deficit and social secur ity benefits. Any one of them could overthrow Gaillard. The crisis was ended largely because it had gone on so long. Deputies were beginning to get angry letters from their consti tuents. It was reported, appar ently on good authority, that President Rene Coty was threat ening to resign and, in doing so, to deliver a merciless blast against parliamentary irrespon sibility. There was talk of bringing in Gen. Charles De Gaulle, the wartime Free France leader, to head a "strong man" cabinet. At least Gaillard is young he is 38 and vigorous, and he brings fresh blood into the cabi net. Six months ago, when he was made finance minister in the cabinet of Maurice Bourges Maunoury which rell on Sept. 30, he was practically unknown. Gaillard proposes first to put the Algerian problem before the National Assembly.- This in cludes getting the continuation of special governmental powers to deal with the revolt which is draining France of men and money. It also includes trying to get approval of a law which would give Algeria a consider able measure of home rule but would leave it still, politically, a part of France. It was the Algerian issue which brought down the Bour-ges-Maunoury cabinet. It might bring the downfall of Gaillard because the Socialists and the Conservatives disagree radically on a solution. Then Gaillard plans to ask for special powers to deal with the pressing problem of govern ment finances, and finally to propose some constitutional changes that would make gov ernment more stable. Paris dispatches are already somewhat pessimistic over Gail lard's prospects. But it seems un likely that any of the divergent groups supporting him will want to take responsibility for causing a new cabinet crisis soon.
