Tunisian Leader To Meet de Gaulle Tunis, Tunisia-IUPH-Tunisian President H a b i b Bourguiba said Thursday night he hoped his meeting with President Charles de Gaulle next Mon day would lead to peace talks between France and the Mos lem Algerian nationalists. Bourguiba, whose country shelters the Algerian "provis ional government" and rebel troops, will confer with de Gaulle at Rambouillct Castle, the French leader's official country residence outside Paris. Bourguiba said the fact de Gaulle invited him for ex ploratory talks - knowing he was a supporter of the rebel regime - indicates "the ob stacles which blocked direct peace negotiations in the past have been surmounted." The first road in Canada was a 10-mile stretch built by Champlain at Port Royal, N.S., in 1606. The lightweight radio ap paratus for World War I air planes was developed by a woman, Dr. Frances G. Wick. Bergen, great seaport on the west coast of Norway, was founded in the 11th century. A steam locomotive hauled a train from Albany to Sche nectady, N. Y., in 1831.
