Michel Debre Back In French Assembly

By PHIL NEWSOM UP! Foreign News Analyst Michel Debre had the distinction of nerving France as premier longer than any other man in the history of the five republics which followed the French Revolution. He also had the more dubious distinction of being the most prominent among Charles de Gaulle followers to lose out in his bid for cleetion to the French assembly in the De Gaulle landslide of last November. But now Debre is back again A bi-election on the French-owned Bercot Is Elected As Union Steward Chester Bercot, of route 2. has been electea one of the second trick stewards in the newly organized Local 16 of the Metal Processors Union (AFL-CIO) in the Bluffton Kitco Engineering plant. Negotiations for a contract will start today. The union has a membership of 73, representing 100% of the eligible employes m production and other departments. A total of 69 voted in the first election. Richard O. Brown, of Bluffton, heads the union. Jerry Franz Honored At Ohio Northern U. Jerry L. Franz, Adams Central graduate from Monroe, will be honored today “with high distinction” for carrying a 3.682 average during his sophomore year at Ohio Northern University.

island of Reunion. 6.000 miles away, gave him another opportunity. He flew to Reunion, campaigned vigorously and won. Now it is anticipated that De Gaulle has another job for him as president of the Gaullist UNR faction of the assembly, where strong leadership notably has been lacking at another difficult testing time for De Gaulle’s leadership. France, the former sick man of Europe, has become the strongest but is threatened by disastrous inflation. The government has denounced “unreasonable” price and wage increases which it says threaten national expansion. French coal miners broke through De Gaulle’s wage ceiling early in April with increases of more than 6 per cent. Similar increases are being demanded in other nationalized industries such as gas. electricity and transport. Wages in private industry have jumped 10 per cent or more. French farmers forced the government to yield on demands for higher milk and meat prices. Industrial prices were moving skyward. And the government, faced with heavy costs especially in its independent nuclear program, was having trouble collecting its taxes from traditionally reluctant Frenchmen. From the left the government was being attacked as anti-labor. Economically, the factors continued favorable. France had more than $4 billion in reserves and production was continuing to expand. But the steeply rising prices were the danger sign. In the French assembly the government needs a strong man to undertake what are certain to be unpleasant tasks. Debre has filled the bill before.

Davalier Says He Will Stay As President PORT AU PRINCE, Haiti (UPD — President Francois Duvalier began a period of unconstitutional control of Haiti today, scoffing at “wishful” reports he would flee the country. Duvalier told foreign newsmen Wednesday reports that his government asked clearance for a military plane carrying him and his family to land on the Dutch island of Curacao were “absolutely untrue.” "This type of wishful reporting sounds very much like Aesop’s fables,” - he said. The President spoke to correspondents on the day his legal term as president expired. It was also the day marked by Haitian exiles for the removal of Duvalier in “operation dryclean.” There was no sign of opposition to the president in Port au Prince however, and reports from abroad. indicated exile groups were beset by confusion and disunity and had no immediate plans for overthrowing Duvalier. The Haitian constitution prohibits a president from succeeding himself, but Duvalier claims he was entitled to a second term in 1961 when his name appeared on all ballots in a congressional election and no one voted against himHe said the withdrawal of dependents of U. S. government personnel from Port au Prince was an “ill - considered attempt to create panic.” He dnied they were ever in any danger in this “calm and peaceful” nation. In another apparent r eferenCe to the United States, Duvalier said “aggressive, subversive foreign influences” were trying to create a spiritual and ideological vacuum in Haiti. Duvalier denied his nation was receiving a i d from Czechoslovakia, Cuba or any other Communist nation. “No. Absolutely no. Never,” he said. He also denied reports that Haiti would be proclaimed a socialist republic.

Voice From Space

By United Press International Astronaut L. Gordon Cooper, speaking from space: Did he dream? “Negative. Actually, I slept very soundly.” How was his suit’s comfort and humidity when he awakened? “Fine.” “I can see the California coastline very well. The weather is crystal clear” (completing his third orbit.) Cap Com: “Faith 7 program. .. all of our monitors down here are overjoyed. Everything looks beautiful.” Faith 7: “Roger, looks mighty good up here too ” Cap Com: “Roger. We have no messages for you. We’ll let you have some quiet time. Have a good ball.” Faith 7: “Roger. Thank you.” Cap Com: “Faith 7, Faith 7, this is California. Got you here and you look real good all over on the board. The medics gave you a clean bill of health. They would like to know if you feel comfortable.” Faith 7= “Roger. I do feel comfortable, very comfortable. In fact I just had a little nap.” Ground Communicator: “•. .Assume you have your TV on. Are you looking out the window?” Faith 7: “You bet. Are you getting it?” Communicator: “I can just see a horizon line. . .It’s sort of interresting. Gordo, how did the manual control check work out?” Faith 7: “Worked out fine.” Communicator: “Very good. You’re looking beautiful on fuel.” Faith 7: “Roger.” An exchange between Glenn and Cooper late Wednesday, apparently just before the astronaut fell asleep: Glenn: “We’ll go away and leave you alone now.” Cooper: “Ahhh, Roger.” Glenn: “Gordo, you’re looking Three Sailors From Decatur In Boston USS LAKE CHAMPLAIN (FHTNC) — Robert G.

real good.” Cooper: “Ahhh, Roger, thank you, John.” How did he feel about the flight? “Very, very pleased.” “Hello, Africa, this is astronaut Gordon Cooper speaking from Faith 7. I am right now over 100 miles above Africa, speaking to the Zanzibar station. A few minutes ago I passed Addis Ababa. I want to wish success to your leaders there. Good luck to all of you in Africa.” (This historic message from space was transmitted today to* the ancient kingdom of Ethiopia, site of a unity conference of leaders from 31 independent Africa nations ) Bayh Apologizes For Colleague WASHINGTON (UPD - Sen. Birch E. Bayh Jr., D-Ind., has apologized for what he said was the attempt of an Indiana congressman to use the sinking of the nuclear submarine Thresher “as a political instrument,” UPI learned today. In a letter Wednesday to Navy Secretary Fred Korth, Bayh did not identify the congressman. But clipped to the copy of the letter was a photostatic copy of interviews in the Madison, Ind., Courier with Rep. Earl Wilson, R-Ind. Wilson was quoted April 16 as saying the late Lt. Comdr. John W. Harvey, commanding officer of the Thresher, was “an extremely adventurous young man.” “‘I would not be a bit surprised if he (Harvey) was exceeding the limits of safety in the fatal dive,’ Wilson stated,” according to the newspaper account. Two days later the paper published a report that Wilson said he had not meant to imply Harvey was reckless. , “ The skipper was prqbaHy acting under orders and may have been attempting to set a world deep-dive record,’ Wilson said. ‘Harvey was adventurous enough to follow instructions even thqugh he may have known it was beyond the ship's capabilities. In my opinion, this is one case where he should not have followed orders.’ ” "I want to apologize for the untimely remarks and let you know that they are not representative of the thinking of the citizens of our state,’’ Bayh wrote Korth “It is unfortunate that"bhe of my colleagues has attempted to barken the name of the deceased commander and reflect discredit on the United States Navy by his reckless irresponsible charges. I hope that you will recognize these statements for what they are—pure political assertions ” “HAPPY NAPPY?”
