Assembly Opens Debate
On OueuiIIe Plan Today

PARIS, Sept. 18 tP.-France's Ma
tional Assembly opens debate today
on Premier Henri Queuilles save
the-franc" plan, with indications
pointing toward passage OF the
measure.
The Queuille proposal for higher
taxes, aimed at raising $3.50, 600 600
in new revenue, was approved, 22 to
13. yesterday by the Assembly S
Finance Committee. Only the Com
munists opposed the plan.
Mr.. Queuille has called cabinet
meeting for this morning and was
expected to get approval If he asked
power to demand a vote Of conf
dence.
1t appeared evident that the gov
ernment was successfully needing
doubtful politicians into accepting
the tax proposal by warning that
France is bound, under the Euro
pean Recovery Program, to try to
straighten out her finances.
Mr.. Queuille particularly wanted
American permission to unfreeze a
fund of approximately $250.000, 600
set aside for monetary stabilization
under the ERP to help towards bal
ancing the budget.
The French news agency said In a
Washington dispatch that State De-
partment officials are ready to free
the fund once they are convinced
the French plan is "efficacious and
lasting"

Meantime, government removal OF

Mr.. Truhlar said the others had
given i'll health and old age and
family responsibility as their main
reasons for quitting. Mr.. Truhlar
who is 78, refused to give any rea-
son for his own quitting other than
that he disagreed with the way the
purge was conducted.
He also said he opposed anti
State activity and favored bring
ing the Sokol into line with the
governments peoples democracy
program.

Senator Revercomb, Republican, OF
West Virginia, yesterday called re-
ports of rift between himself and
Gov. Dewey, of New York, over the

in agreement, Gov. Dewey and I
have always had the best Of rela-
tionships," the West Virginia Sena-
tor said. "If there is any feeling
on the Governors part in this mat
ter, have no knowledge of it,"

tering about amendments to the act

publican presidential nominee. came
into focus last week during visit
to New York by COP National

with Gov. Dewey and asked him to
come to West Virginia to help Sem

son Act.

lieved any breach between Senator

Supporters and opponents OF Gen.
Charles de Gaulle came to blows
here today as the general arrived for
a speech for his French Peoples

car as it passed through a workers
suburb. Cars in which Gen. de
Gaulle and his staff were riding
were forced to slow down because
nails had been scattered across the
road.
At the edge of the city proper,
when Gen. de Gaulle stopped to lay
a wreath on a monument to patriots
slain by the Nazis, opponents sought
to drown out his speech with a
chorus of booing.
The generals followers replied
with louder cheering Fist nights
broke out in the crowd, but were

Statement on Farm Problems.
Gov. Dewey's statement where he
stands on farm problems follows:
THE farm legislation enacted by
the Both Congress is the best guar
antee to American farmers of the
Republican Party's interest in the
problems involved in the alI-impor-
tant job of producing food and other
agricultural products for l40,00O,0 ,0OO
Americans, plus additional millions
Of people throughout the world.
Abundant food production, which
was one Of our most powerful wea-
pons in war, is more than ever re-
quired if we are properly to feed
our people at home at reasonable
prices and successfully wage the
struggle for peace abroad.
IF American farmers are to be
expected to produce the volume ano
quality OF food necessary to meet
these great obligations, they must
be protected.
Calls for Firm Program.
"The consumer and the farmer
have an equal stake In sound Gov
ernment support of farm prices. To-
morrow's meals can not be left II
chance and today's farming sets to-
morrow's table. A firm program O.

will benefit both producers and con

"The price support program enact
