ForsiEn Correspondent Of Ths star
PARIS. Oct. 5-The deci-
sion Of Gen. Charles de Gaulle
to stand for another seven-year
term as president Of France
has for the first time provoked
q serious effort to create a
serious opposition to his re-
gime.
The process Is only Just be-
ginning. 1t may never get far
enough to threaten Gen. de
Gaulle's hold on the country.
But given time the nucleus Of
q coherent opposition Is in the
making.
Gen. de Gaulle has sought
this result himself. One Of the
major purposes Of his latest
constitutional RECOMMENDATION
OF the president by universal
suffrage-was to polarize po-
litical opinion in France over
the choice Of q powerful chief
executive. Since the forces sup
porting President de Gaulle
form a monolithic bloc, the
only chance for those who op-
pose him is to bury their many
differences and unite.
DiSunity Is Weakness
The conspicuous lack Of
unity among the political par
ties opposed to the general has
been all along a major weak
ness. In every major showdown
the electorate has been pre-
sented with what virtually
amounted to a choice between
De Gaulle and chaos.
Since the distintegration of
the Fourth Republic the men
who led the country through
out the postwar period have
been unable to get together on
any agreed program Of oppos-
ing the government and its
supporters in the Union for the
New Republic. Traditional par
ties have followed their old
fragmented divisive policies.
fighting among themselves and
literally justifying charges that
a return to their ways would
mean q return to the stagna-
ton and immobilism of post
war France.
Whether all this may now
change remains very much to
be seen. The vacuum which has
sustained Gen. de Gaulle Is far
from filled. But at least among
the various opposition parties
today-or at least the more i'm
portant ones-there is begin
ming to emerge what might be
called a common anti GaulliSt
language.
Note Of Urgency
This has shown up at party
congresses which coincided
with the generals decision to
to the electorate for q
new seven-year mandate. Ear
lier, elections were not expected
before 1865. But since the deci-
sion could now come at any
time-an election could be pre-
cipitated at any opportune mo-
ment by Gen. de Gaulle's resig-
nation-there is an altogether
new note Of urgency in the
current political season. =
The most fanciful-and not

Man Is Needed

For the immediate future,
however. what is most urgently
needed by Gen. de Gaulle's op-
position is a man. Parties may
be able to reconcile many of
their differences for the COM
ing showdown. But until they
can agree on a personality and
"a program capable Of making a
strong appeal to the electorate,
there is little hope Of success.
The search today Is, In fact,
for q Mr.. K - q man uncon-
taminated by his prominent
connection with the Fourth
Republic. And yet a man Of ex-
perience and stature, articulate
enough to hold his own against
the most affective political ora
tor in the world today.
1t is quite an order and so
far no one has clearly emerged
as a fayorite. The rivalry has
been rather confine d to the
severity with which this or that
potential candidate has dared
to abuse the present regime.

said, would enable Northeast to
recoup its finances, possibly at

No Reform Incentive
Explaining the purpose of
the proposed conference, Sem
ator Long said that in the past
there has been mo stimulation
and no continuing effort" to
encourage the agencies to make
necessary reforms and to i'm
plement the recommendations
Of previous efficiency studies.
The conference would be
made up Of a chairman, APP
pointed by the President for a
five-year term. a council and
an assembly. The 11-member
council, also appointed by the
President, and the 75-member
assembly would draw their
membership mainly from the
agencies, practicing lawyers
and administrative law scholars.
If permanently established
by Congress, the Administra-
tive Conference could have a
significant effect in reducing
the time it takes for business
men to get a Government de-
cision on such things as mer-
ger proposals. which now drag
on for as long as several years.
It could influence a variety
