decide whether the Communists viii
head the first government Of the
Fourth Republic.
The voters will choose "a 900 mem.

tons to elect 200 OF the Sl5 members
OF the Council Of the Republic. The
Council Is the second house of Par
lament which will join with the
National Assembly in January tc
elect the President of the Fourth
Republic.
The Importance OF tomcrrow's
balloting far exceeds the Importance
Of the Council itself, which has very
little power. It cannot enact legis-
lation. It can only propose laws to
the National Assembly elected No
vember 10. It can OILY make recon-
mendations on laws passed by the
Assembly.
France is confronted, however,
with the fact that the Communists
are the largest single party In the
National Assembly and by virtue of
this ballot box triumph are claiming
the premiership for Communists
Leader Maurice Thorez.
Leaders Of the Popular Republican
Movement (MRP) admit their
chances Of blocking this Communist
bid for power will be far more diff
cult If the Communists emerge with
the largest popular vote tomorrow.
MRP chieftans have proclaimed
publicly that the future of tSe new
government will be determined by
tomorrow's vote, and the Commun-
lists have also pleaded with the ma
ton to confirm its November 10 vic
tory by heavy support in the bal
loting.

CONSCRIPTION:
Prospects Brighten

Because Of the precarious inter-
national situation aggravated by
Russian moves in the east, congress
sional support grew for extension of
the ~selective service act beyond
May Is.
With war department officials
calling for maintenance of military
strength in the face of unsettled
world conditions, it was revealed
that plans called for an army Of
1900, 900 officers and men by July,
1916, and 1000, 900 by July, 1947.
Pending determination Of the aims,
policies and programs Of other la
tons, and the efficiency Of the UNO
in resolving disputes, no decision
can be made about the permanent
size of the armed forces, it was
said.
General Eisenhower declared that
n of the principal arguments for
the retention of selective service
was that it acts as a spur for volun-
tary enlistments. With volunteers
permitted to specify what branch
Of service they prefer, many young
men act to pick their spots before
being drafted and made subject to
compulsory placement. In five
months, 600, OFT volunteers enlist
ed, with 67.07 per cent being World
War II vets, 1877 per cent recruits
and 1923 per cent pre-Pearl Harbor
enrollees.

FOREIGN AFFAIRS:

Russia was put on her honor by
high American and British officials
n the midst of reports that re-
nforced Red armies were tanning

threatening Turkey and Iraq.
In Washington, D. c., President
Truman openly expressed conf

could resolve their difficulties aris-
ng over Iran and the Reds strip
ling Of Manchurian industry through
diplomatic procedure. Al the time
dr. Truman spoke, Russia's only

protest over continued Red occupa-
