fact. It is our will to retaliate

But the unfortunate fact is
that either q large number Of

French deputies are as re-

But some observers believe that

quiet achievements of the past
few months has been recogni-

On the domestic front, Mr.
Macmillan said the major
problem Of the government is
hating imitation. He pledged
the government would use
monetary and credit controls
and would restrict public spend
ing TO stop rising prices.
The AGO delegates rose in a
thunderous ovation at the end
Of the speech by the Prime
Minister who succeeded Sir An
thony Eden nine months ago.
1t was a rousing windup to q
sober three-day convention.
Delegates had been reminded
repeatedly that the party which
has held the government since

In round figures, 1t viii take
about 800 votes to put over a
decent Algerian reform bill and
TO keep a government reason
ably firm in the saddle. There
are some 400 deputies in the

300 votes.
OF the 400 Democratic dep
uties. 100 are Socialists. They
are well disciplined and. to-
gether with scattered sympa-
thizers in other parties. can al
ways block any bill they don't
like.
In the middle Of the spectrum
are about 200 deputies belong
ing to five major parties and
countless smaller groupings
(they are countless because they
don't stand still long enough
to permit one to determine who
sides with who for what. Gen.
orally speaking, these deputies
will go along with anything
reasonable and moderate on Al
geria.
To the right in the center 400
is a group Of 100 deputies call
ing thmselveS ''moderates. "
They use the term moderate be-
cause the word 'rightist" is a
dirty one in French politics
and because the word ''conserv.
alive" Is not in the French vo-
cabulary. The French Mod
crates are quite conservative.
Can Block Bills
Their 100 votes. plus those
Of scattered friends. are enough
to block any bill.
So the Socialists and the
Moderates can veto any Al
gerian reform bill and they
have been doing that. The So
cialists oppose conservative So
lutions in Algeria. The Mod
crates oppose liberal suggestions

not well organized or disci-
plined. so 1t is possible for an
'adroit Premier with a cautious
program to lure away q few
moderate deputies.
The trick then Is for q Pre-
mier to present an Algerian
bin liberal enough to get all the
Socialists plus the center. and
conservative enough to make
tnroads on the moderate veto.
Mr.. Bourges-Maunoury tried
and failed.
New candidates for the pre-
miership face this same prob
lem. They insist on coming in
with enough votes to move
France of dead center in Al
geria. but so far they haven't
been able to- please three out Of
four democratic deputies.
SCek ot1Dlllty
The candidates - and Presi-
tdent Coty who picks the can
didateS - also want to line
UP backing for constitutional
changes which would give Par
lament more stability and the
Premier more authority. But
constitutional changes require
two-thirds vote in Parliament

democratic deputies.
All Of the Democratic center
does want constitutional
changes. but the many factions
split in multiple directions on
the nature of the changes.

But. one might point out, peo-
pie in other countries also
differ; still they are able to
agree on some forward steps.
Why has France been virtually
, immobilzed since the end of
World War II?
The answer lies in the Sec
ond reason the Frenchman will
give for his pessimism: The
structure Of the French Par
Lament.
Reforms must go through the
Chamber Of Deputies. and the
Chamber is so constituted that
1t is easy to say mo" to every
thing and quite difficult to say
