French Constitution
Passed by Assembly
BY 44O 10 los Vote
Fote of New Charter Now
Rests With Statement
By. De GouIIe Today
By the Assoeiose Press

PARIS, Sunday, Sept. 29.-The
French Assembly early today
adopted a new constitution for
the Fourth Republic by the over
lwhelming vote of 440 to 106.
The balloting, which ended at
am. G0 pm. Saturday, EST came
only few hours before Gen.
Charles de Gaulle was to make his
tensely awaited statement concern
ing his opinion of the new basic
law of the nation.
Gen. de Gaulle, his friends have
said. will speak directly to the
French people and urge them to
reject the constitution in the ref
erendum October 13.
Ultimate Fate in Doubt.
This unpredictable factor placed
the ultimate fate of the assembly's
new constitution in doubt, for it
was not clear how much strength
Gen. de Gaulle could muster in his
opposition if he fatty denounces
it and urges that it be turned down.
The constitution received the votes
Of Frances three largest parties
the Communists, the Socialists and
President Georges Bidault's Popular
Republican Movement (MRP), which
together represent about 80 per cent
Of the French electorate
Opposing votes were those of pre-
war Premier Edouard Herriots s
Radical Socialists and Rightest
Parties.
This is postwar Frances second
constitution. The first was rejected
in referendum last. May. At that
time it was supported only by Com
muniSts and Socialists.
If Gen. de Gaulle does oppose the
constitution-Which will inevitably
plunge France into a bitter cam
paign battle-it will be because of
that feature of the constitution
which most sharply contrasts it with
that of the United States.
And that is: The balance OF gov
ernment power is not equitably dis
tributed between the executive, leg
islative and judiciary branches, but
is concentrated in the hands of one
nearly omnipotent national as
sembly.
Parliament Would Pick President.
The French constitution, designed
| to give the nation its first perma
nent governmental structure in six
years, provides for:
A President of the republic, elected
not by universal suffrage, as in
America, but by a joint session OF
| the Parliament. His term would be
seven years. He could be reelected
once.
A Parliament would be composed
of National Assembly of Deputies,
elected by universal suffrage, and a
Council of the Republic, elected by
complicated electoral college sys-
tenn, whose electors would be mayors,
municipal and cantonal officials.

By Don S. Worren

A revamping of the Govern
ment's system of war surplus
disposal will be considered by
the House Surplus Property
Committee when it completes its
investigation of the War Assets
A d m n i s tra a tion, Chairman
Slaughter indicated yesterday.
The committee, which is now in
the midst of hearings on a be-
wildered array of details, certainly
will make some recommendations
as to the whole SYSTEM" he said.
The committee plans to devote all
of this week to further explorations
into the handling of surplus radio,
radar and telephone equipment
materials estimated to have cost the
Government as much as $4,000 0OO,-
600. Following this, two days of
hearings are scheduled next week
into the efforts of educational in
stitutionS to obtain surplus ma
terials.
In new protest against lack of
Government auditing of the ac-
counts of manufacturers agents
employed on 10 per cent-plus ex-
penses basis to sell electronics ma
terials, Chairman Slaughter said in
an interview this was "one of the
worst" things developed in hearings
of the past week.
Testimony showed. he said, that
the only check the Government had
on the operations of the manufac-
turers' agents was the inventory
which the agents themselves made
up and sent to WAA along with, a
remittance for what was sold.
This amounted to no control at
