Majority Said Not
Major Challenge
Due in Assembly
Editor' note: General Charles de
Gaulle's rise to power seemed so
Inexorable in the past week that
the National Assembly vote mak
ing him premier was almost anti
climatic. But Is De Gaulle the end
of a crisis or the beginning of
yet a greater one? Thomas R.
Curran. vice president and general
European manager of United Press
International, analyses it In the
following dispatch.
Br THOMAS R. CURRAN
United Press International
Paris (UPI) The gov
ernment of Charles de Gaulle
is only a few hours old but
already Frenchmen look be
yond and ask:
"What next?"
The general has welded
himjlf a majority in the Na
tional Assembly. But that is
not his major challenge.
It is a constitution that does
not work. A war without so-
lution. An economy off the
rails.
De Gaulle asked fo) six
months to settle these prob
lems grave problems Qat
have ved France for years.
Deputies will tell yoff they(t)
are not afraid of De Oaulle.
"What worries us," they say,
"is what happens if he fails."
Gravest Challenge
This is the maes-nest of
trouble that De Gatille would
cure in six months:
Reform the constitution.
De Gaulle feels the present
system of government is im
possibly weak. His govern
ment is the 27th since the
war. De Gaigle wants the ex
ecutive to have full powers
(more on the American pat
tern), and he thinks the peo
ple should vote directly on
the reform.
End the war in Algeria.
This may be the gravest chal
lenge. Can even De Gaulle
stand firm when two run
away trains collide with him
in the middle resurgent
French colonialism on one
side and Moslem determina
tion for freedom 4m the oth
er? Get France's economy
back on the rails. The war
in Algeria has been a fearful
drain, costing some S650mil
lion to date, with the Alger
ian nationalist movement now
stronger than ever. There are
other chronic ills high im-
ports and low exports among
them.
De Gaulle is said to know,
what he wants and to be in
flexible in getting it.
Feeling of Relief
He was th proud symbol
of France when the country
was entirely overrun by Hit
ler's legions. He feels he help
ed save France's integrity in
1940 and he can do it aga
Z-A
today.
If he succeeds, the Fpurth
Republic, chastened and puri
fied by the constitutional re
form, can carry on with great
er stability and few govern
ment upheavals.
And if he fails?
The pessimists fear the
Communists will have a gold
en opportunity to take over
the controls with a "popular
front" government.
Whatever comes next, the
immediate feeling in(France
today was one of relief.
Many Frenchmen who nor
mally might have been
against De Gaulle prayed for
his success. They feared fail
ure would mean the horror
of civil war and the triumph
of a communist-dominated
popular front.
Two Fliers Die

Anchor a ee (UPI) Two

Dead were CapL Bruce

of cement went out of con
trol as it took off from Drift

Witnesses theorized the cargo
may have slipped and forced
the two-engine craft out of
control.
The plane sank almost im
