OREGON WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 2. 1955 Faure Again Faces Vote In Assembly PARIS (yf Premier Eduar Faure goes before the National As ' fcembly for the third time tn 16 days tonight to ask tor a vote of confidence. Even bis most bitter enemies were likely to hesitate before vol- Jng against the Premier in the . tension beginning at 3 p.m. EST. The Premier's idea of uitsolvtiig '.he present Assembly Jan. 2 and holding a quick, election in Decem ber appeared popular throughout the nation. Any deputy voting against the government might ceem to be In a position of want ing to avoid a test of his own pop ularity at trie ballot box. The pres ent Assembly's five-year term is sot tip until next June. A government proposal lor I form of proportionate repreaenta. tion which would give all seats from a department (county) to the party which got more than naif the votes, was rejected by the As aembly, 459 to 145. In departments where no party got a majority, the seats would be split on the ba als of the vote they received. De partments have from 2 to 11 seats, according to their popula tion. Faure asked for the vote of con fidence alter the Assembly refused to consider his plan. If he is sustained It would be tin the question of dissolving the Assembly Jan. 2 and holding a new election In December. The question of changing the election Jaw would have to come up later, but It was not likely to arise un less it seemed a majority could be founa tor a new method. The deputies therefore, would probably be elected In the same wsv as In 1051. That year par Her, coum form alliances in tne at partments, and the party or allt ance winning more than half the votes got all the seats. Scats were divided according to the propor tional number of votes where there was no majority. The system provoked much crit icism. In some cases a deputy with 40.000 votes was elected and a candidate In the same department with 100,000 votes got nothing. This was because the voters chose party list, not an Individual can didate. - The election issue has caused a sharp split between Faure and former Premier Pierro Mendes France. school friends and both members of the Radical Socialist parly. Mendes-France criticised Faure for pushing ahead with the elec tion Issue.

IN TEXTURE. ..IN TASTE... IN ALL-AROUND PERFECTION By LYLE C. WILSON L'nlted Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON (UP) The caU for early public announcement whether President Elsenhower will run anam suggests that some Re publicans believe Vice President Richard M. Nixon is gaining a long lead on the field. Mr. Eisenhower has done noth ing to divert public attention from Nixon or to weaken public confi dence in his young friend. On the contrary, before and during ms Ill ness, the President's liking for and dependence on Nixon have been freely and enthusiastically ack nowledged. Mr. Elsenhower now might almost be said to be giving Nixon a build-up looking toward his possible nomination for Presi dent next year. However that may be. tne vice president can accept the role to which the President, himself, has assigned him without being liable to the accusation that he is cam paigning for the nomination. No Kepuoncan can gu out ior me nomination just now. They must know Mr. Elsenhower's own inten tions before they may make - a move. That is a considerable han dicap when one of their number is placed by chance daily m a spot lighted position where he shows to most advantage. That is the happy spot in which Nixon finds himself. All others, for the time being, are in the shadows. The vice president already Is a well established national figure. That is what Sen. William F. Knowland. Senate Republican leader, may have had in mind when lie called yesterday for an early decision from Mr. Eisen hower. Knowland said the party should have time, plenty of time, to look over the possible candi dates before choosing. Knowland, like Nixon, la a Cali fornia;! but there is no evidence that Knowland is a Nixon-for-l President man. He has teamed up, on occasion, with California's Gov. Goodwin J. Knight to lick I the Nixon forces in California Knight is maneuvering now tor a bedrock alliance with Knowland to stop Nixon. Knowland is believed to be turning over In his mind a go lor the presidential nomination. Most Republicans were clamor ing for months for an announce ment. that Mr. Eisenhower would run for a second term. His Illness hushed that clamor, but it is be. glning to rise again. Knowland is not part of . it. He was saying months ago that there was no in dispensable man, meaning that Mr. Eisenhower was not essential to Republican victory in 1950. Knowland may or may not be right about that. There is general agreement among politicians of both parties, however, that Mr. Elsenlrower Would be the strongest candidate the Republicans could put up.' Some Republicans do spec ulate on the possibility that he will be able to run again. Democrats do not speculate abcut that. They have a deep feeling for Mr. Eisenhower in his illness and they were convinced almost Instantly that he would be much too ill to try lor anotner tour years in the White House. If their candidate next year must oppose some lesser Republican, the Dem ocrats will Just have to make the best of it. , The Democrats would like an early Eisenhower decision, too. But it is not so important for them as for the Republicans. The early word was that Mr. Eisenhower would announce his plans around Christmas or New Year's.
