French Bicameral System to be at Stake

Paris, July 10-AP-The fate Of
the bi-cameral system OF govern
ment in France is expected to be
at stake Oct. IA when the French
people-at their first general cleo
tion since before the war-decide
whether they wish to discard the
constitution Of 1875, under which
the third republic was established.
The decision to call the election
was reached by Gen. De Gaulle's
council of ministers yesterday at
a six-hour meeting and placed
definite limit on the tenure OF the
present provisional government.
Under the election procedure
laid down by the council, the voters
will be given an opportunity to elect
n new national assembly in addi-
ton to deciding whether they wish
to return to the constitution OF
1875.

was said voting would be on the
basis OF universal suffrage" II

bers of his cabinet would be can
didates for the assembly, thus
making the election test Of his
popular support.
The constitutional issue was ex-
pected to hinge on the question OF
whether France should retain two
legislative bodies-comparable to
the American Senate and House Of
the constitution Of 1875.

WAR PRODUCTION BOARD
WILL BE LIQUIDATED

Washington-The War Produc-

controls over industry are expect

J. A. Krug, chairman of the
agency which managed the ma
tons economy for war, expects
to present WPB's liquidation plan
to President Truman this week.
While Nov. l is the date chosen
by Krug for the agency's death
and his own resignation from the
Government, the physical prob
lens of dismantling the big organ
ization may continue until Dec. l.
Within the next month, accord

Officials said that while no de-
cision has been made as to which
category specific divisions would
be assigned, those within the two
groups are the list, 10th, 80th,
83d, 84th, Goth, Gath, Tooth, and
102d Infantry Divisions, the Sd

Division.
Thus the 10Th and 36th Infantry
Divisions, formally slated for oc-
cupation duty, will come home.
The seth already is on the alert.
The 42d and 18th Divisions will
replace them. The 82d Air-borne
has been removed from the long
term occupation list and put in
the category Four and Once
group. The 18th "Oklahoma" In
fantry Division, on the first occu-
patton list, is almost back home
now and does not appear in the
new occupation roster.
This was the chart which head
quarters released:
Men with IS or more points
should start home in September
or October.
Those with 70 to "a should de-
part in October or November.
Men with so to SO can look for
ward to sailing in November or

Thus of 100000 officers and
men in the European theatre on
Sept. l, 100000 are scheduled to
sail for home in September, Octo-

officials said. Another 259, 900 will
leave in December, leaving only

A liquidation force of 100000
men, composed principally of
those with SIS to SO points but in
Guiding some with As to 81, is ex-
pected to start sailing home at the
rate of $4,000 monthly after Jan.
