Gaulle to rule unimpeded by
Parliament. Not even the
Communist Deputies. bitter foes
Of the general, objected.
Speaker Andre lie Troquer
closed his address by crying
viva la Republique," and all
the Deputies applauded.
Powers Run Six Months
Gen. de Gaulle's special pow
ers extend by law for six
months. That would overlap
the return Of the Assembly,
but 1t could 60 to work on
the next years budget. Gen.
de Gaulle had insisted they take
q six-month vacation while he
tackled Frances problems.
The army dominated junta
ruling Algeria professed to be
in the dark about Gen. Salan's
trip and even about Gen. de
Gaulle's visit to the rebelliouS
North African territory.
The junta hailed Gen. de
Gaulle's return to power as a
great victory for the rebellion.
But the old political faces in
his cabinet caused widespread
discomfort and open disgust
among some of the extremists
who hoped Gen. de Gaulle
would clean house in Paris.
Accompanying Gen. Salan to
Paris was the Air Force COM
mander in Algeria, Gen. Ed
mond Jouhoud.
Fewer Guards on Duty
Security troops still manned
strategic spots throughout
Paris-and the rest Of France
but they were fewer in number.
The country slowly returned
to something resembling nor
NAL after a month of crisis,
rioting, tension and fear. The
troops were wearing their soft
caps instead Of riot helmets.
Tommyguns were slowed away.
Gen. de Gaulle also moved to
make peace with the FESTIVE
trade unionists who provided
the core Of resistance to his re-
turn to power.
The general called in repre-
SentativeS of the three big
trade unions with total mem
bership of 8 million. They
are the Communicated Gen.
eral Confederation of Labor, the
Socialist Force Ouvriere and
the Catholic French Confed-
Grafton of Christian Workers.
The 67-year-old De Gaulle
moved into the Hotel Matignon
three weeks to the day after
the military revolt broke out
in Algeria. The stately old
mansion quickly began to adapt
to his military ways.
Calls went out alerting the
cabinet members Gen. de Gaulle
named to accompany him TO
Algeria. They include Socialist
Max Lejeune, the former Min
lister for the Sahara who holds
q similar post under Gen. de
Gaulle: the independent Louis
Jacquinot, a Minister of State,
and Deputy Minister Of Defense
Pierre Guillaumat. a mining
engineer who also is an expert
on the Sahara.
The National Assembly fin-
ished its endorsement of the
new Premier'S program early
today. 1t authorized him to
submit his constitutional
changes directly to the voters
bypaSsing parliamentary APP
proval-only after he threat
ened in a personal appearance
to resign if the deputies tried
to delay him with the debate
and amendments they have
employed to hamstring previous
governments.
Although a 1913 Senate COM
mittee vote foreShadowed the
upper houses approval of the
constitutional proposal, Gen. de
Gaulle appeared for the Senate
session this morning. He
brought along Vice PremierS
Guy Mollet and Pierre Pflimlin
to crack the whip over their
Socialist and Catholic Republic
followers If necessary.
De Gaulle Speaks Affably
No pressure was necessary,
however. Gen de Gaulle spoke
briefly and affably in support
of his demand and smiled often
and warmly at the packed gall
lerieS. There was strong APP
plause when he finished, ex-
cept from the IL Communist
Senators.
The Senate debate was brief,
and confined chiefly to Com
munist objections.
Both the Assembly and the
Senate yesterday approved the
first two parts Of the program
Gen. de Gaulle presented when
he became premier on Sunday.
These gave the World War II
hero a free hand to run France
for six months and renewed
the customary special powers
to rule Algeria by decree.
But the Assembly baked at
letting Gen. de Gaulle formu-
late his constitutional changes
without restriction and take
them direct to the electorate.
A committee tackled on several
Gripping amendments and the
Deputies began wrangling over
Gen. de Gaulle's demand.
Instead Of remaining aloof
