Urged by De GauIIe
by the Assoeiafsd Press

PARIS, Nov. 5.-Gen. Charles de-
Gaulle has called for election of his
followers to the upper house OF
Parliament Sunday. He said this
would save France from anarchy.
Gen. De Gaulle said last night
that If his French Peoples Party
RPF gets control of the upper
house it will use its influence to
bring about new general elections
for the powerful lower house-the
National Assembly.
The electoral college will name
267 of the 800 members of the
Council of the Republic Sunday
The others, representing overseas
territories, will be picked later.
The Council, by contrast with the
Assembly, has no real legislative
powers. but Gen. De Gaulle said
that If 1t were dominated by his
RPF it could do much to provoke
a return to democracy and a con-
sultation of the people"
Gen. De Gaulle has contended that
II general elections are held his
party will win and he will return
to power in France.

the last survey was reported in the Geological Bulletin of 1903, and that the purpose of his study is to an alyze the tremendous mining de- velcpments which have occurred in this area in the intervening years.
 He also gave a general description of the geology of this region and the various types of volcanic rock to be found from Mount Jumbo to the international border.
 These rocks were originally laid down in an ancient sea bed, he said, and were thrown up and tilted by the Coast Range Diorite, an erup- ton of molten rock which flowed i'll among the slate layers. The intru- sion of the molten material resulted later in the formation of quartz veins from which gold ore is ex- traeted

 In the latter connection, the agency is now working with the For est Service to determine the poten- tial water power available from AL laskan streams for the development 'of the pulp industry.
