THE GUARDIAN Saturday My 8 1972 .3 Pompidou NESTA ROBERTS Letter from Paris finds a winning team' From RICHARD SCOTT, Paris, July 7 Messmer presented his new Government to President Pompidou at the Elysee today. The President said mat it would carry on Gaullism but would also continue his own policy of cooperation with IT MAY SEEM a far cry from Beau Geste; but It is tho Foreign Legion which has got its foot into the door of the Matlgnon with the appoint-, ment of Pierre Messmer as Prime, Minister. "Wlun, in 1960, -Messmer was appointed General de Gaulle's Minister of the Forces, lie held the rank of lieutenant-colonel in the7 reserve of the Legion and had, record of service in North Africa, Italy, France, Germany, and Indo-China which' included being parachuted into Tonkin and taken prisoner by the Vietmdhih. If that full-blooded past seems, to be belied by his present appearance, silver-haired and reassuring like a highly distinguished family doctor, then it should be remembered that the Legion keeps its dash for action and, on formal occasions, distinguished for its slow march. The cpnverse of this proposition is not really applicable to Messmer.

That he remained at the head of the Ministry of the Armed Forces until 1969, under three different Prime Ministers, was at least partly due to the fact that, like Couve de Murville, who had 10 years at Foreign Affairs, Messmer was the of Minister whom France knows as a grand commit, a higher civil servant who envisages his task as carrying out with unswerving loyalty, the line laid down by superior authority, rather than branching out on his own. When the superior authority happened' to be that of General de Gaulle, it was an excellent manner of remaining in office. AM. the indicafoons are that it will equally well under Pompidou. The new Prime Minister, like so many French politicians, read law at the holiday, to be howled down by those, including many teachers, who held that the 'children could not latt out five days at a stretch.

The suggestions under consideration before this week's decision have included one for an "English week" of full-day Saturday holiday and half a day on Wednesday and, improbable as it may. seem, for a -holiday on Wednesday or Thursday morning with work in the afternoon. On the- further horizon, there is the possibility of far more radical reform. It has been suggested that the academic year should begin in January instead of September. That would mean six or "seven months' solid work, with two mid-term breaks and a couple of weeks' holiday at Easter, followed by the long summer vacation.

In October the pupils would go back for a term's revision in readiness for examinations at the end of the year. Unofficially, it is said that there already has to be a certain amount of revision during the autumn because, after three months' summer holidays, so much has been forgotten. One" of the differences between the French and British' health services is that here a multitude of private clinics or nursing homes, more or less well equipped, exist alongside the State hospitals. One of the results is to push up the running expenses of the latter, since they are left to deal almost exclusively, and at vast expense, with complicated operations and illnesses, while those with more straightforward conditions opt for the Party and, chief of the recent union of the Left, precarious though it may be. THIS WEEK hat seen an educational revolution which it, llkaly to stir family life even more deeply than the introduction of the new mathematics, which i saying a very great deal.

In future, the Thursday holiday for children which, like so many other things' in' France, dates back to Napoleon, will be changed to Wednesday. The whole holiday was originally instituted so that the citizens of a lay Republic might, if they wished, ensure for their children the religious instruction which could not be given in State schools. Saturday, it should be noted, has traditionally been a full working day for schools. Over the generations, besides being the day for catechism class, has been devoted also to. dancing classes and riding lessons and going to the dentist to have braces put on your teeth.

At one end of the social scale big stores display little girls' dresses suitable for Thursday tea parties: at the other, particularly in Paris, children's clubs and play groups lay on programmes for those whose parents may both be working and who have nowhere to go' on Thursday. There has been a suggestion also that pupils needed Thursday off' in order to recover from the strain of the first three days of the week arid nerve themselves for the remaining. two. With the growth of the weekend habit one group has been pressing for a Saturday university and holds a doctorate in that subject He went on to gain the Diploma of the National School of Oriental Languages, as a preparation for a career as a colonial administrator. Like Mr.

Heath, one of his recreations is sailing. Meanwhile, at a stroke, Jacques- Chaiban Delmas, who how deceptive are appearances is. a year older than his successor, has reverted to being mayor of Bordeaux, since a French Minister out of office has not the option of resuming his seat in the National Assembly, which, upon his election to office, is occupied by his suppleant, or locum. But setting aside the fact that Bordeaux is no mean city, that is not to say that Chaban-Delmas will vanish from the political scene. With a presidential election four years ahead, it is not too soon for a strong candidate to begin laying the foundations of his campaign.

The fact has already been grasped by the young cabaret star, Thierry Le Luron, who shot intofame at the age of 18 on the strength of his dazzling impersonation of the Prime Minister. Young Le Luron, who has since then greatly extended his repertory, has already said that, for Chaban Delmas, it is au revoir but not goodbye. Students of politics who accept that the preoccupations of cartoonists and impersonators are at least as reliable an index of the fluctuations of reputations as the public opinion poll may be interested to know that, for the new season, Le Luron is preparing a study of Francois Mitterrand, the leader of the new Socialist Pierre Messmer former Legionnaire, colonial administrator, and Minister of Defence. superior comfort of the clinics. But what is not generally known outside its borders is that France also has the equivalent of private patient beds in public hospitals.

They were instituted expressly to prevent a wasteful dispersal of advanced technical equipment in private clinics. Patients occupying them have a right to be treated by any physician or surgeon they choose, whether or not he is on the staff of the hospital, and' they negotiate their own terms with him. The one restriction Is that hospitals must give priority to their own clientele, which normally they do. On an aver South advancing into trap?

Gyp of is oi as he et of to the Government for electoral Ministers you will De a winning team." The only major difference between the old and the new "teams" seems to be in the person of the Prime Minister. Messmer has re-appointed nearly all the leading members of the Chaban-Delmas Cabinet.

He has brought in seven new men and left out 18 from the old Government seven Minis ters and II Secretaries of State. Ten Ministers and Secretaries State have changed places. It a much smaller Government. The most interestins new comer is the veteran (in terms. previous public service rather than years), Edgar Faure, who becomes head of an enlarged Ministry, covering all social affairs, with the rank of Minister of State.

Faure. who is 64, has served in several' previous Governments, from Junior Minister to Prime Minister. He is a man of strong Liberal social conscience, a Left-wing Gaullist. His anDoinbnenf in the new Government is no doubt designed to allay liberal anxieties about the disappearance of Chaban-Delmas, the author of the "new society" and a man who would have liked to introduce social reforms, and also about his replacement by a conservative and ultra-Gauliist. Another newcomer is Hubert Germain, who has been made Minister of Posts and Telecommunications.

He stands far to the Right of the Gaullist Party as Faure stands to the Left. A personal friend and former associate of Messmer, is chairman of the "Presence Action du Gaullisme" group UDR deputies, which aspires keep alive the ideals and political precepts of the General. New member Another new' Government member, Jean Deniau, Secre tary of State for Overseas Term-, tones, is a brother-of the Euro pean High' Commissioner. Jean Charbonnel, a former Sec retary of State for Foreign Affairs, has been brought into Government as Minister for Industrial Development He is another Left-wing GauHist. The" most important men whom Messmer has dropped from his Government are Ortoli, who is expected to become French member of the European Oha'lendin, Frey, (the Minister who was in charge of the Concorde project), and Cointat The new Government main tains the same party balance as between the UDR, Independent Republicans, and Centrists.

Messmer (or more probably President Pompidou) decided against the appointment of a special Secretary of State for Europe, but the Minister-Delegate at the Foreign Ministry is expected to be asked to take on this work. 1J-6 SO pm Bodl ContimpsratT Subltcts. 12 32 am News of walu, Clou.

The Court des Comptes, or national accounting committee, has recently found places where the proportion of private to public beds is 18, 50 and even this in some hospitals in the Loire region 100 per cent. There were some -places too, where for three successive years the private department overspilled into a public section which was already over-taxed. A rate of bed occupation of 183 per cent, 164 per cent and 172 per cent in the private section of a maternity department tells its own story. normally do not discuss politics talk freely of the political objective that is forcing them to a somewhat higher level of risk on the battlefield the need to retake as much territory as possible to bolster South Vietnam's hand when the Paris peace talks resume next week.

So far, the South Vietnamese have advanced about 15 miles into the province, but they are still about 20 miles from the demilitarised zone, and opposition is stiffening as they move within range of the Communists' biggest artillery pieces. With all those reservations, however, military officials and advisers involved in the operation known as Lamson 72 are generally satisfied with its progress. At least for the moment, the South Vietnamese have the initiative. The fear expressed by sceptics in Hue and Saigon that the North Vietnamese are luring Saigon's forces into a trap is shared by some officers at the front, but not all. "If they're luring us in there, how come they're fighting so hard to keep us out one asked.

waatnar. id jb.ii.ib Tanaka's ageing regime From KENNETH MATTHEWS Tokyo, July 7 Japan's new Prime Minister, Mr Kakuei Tanaka, appointed a Cabinet of political veterans today, dampening speculation that his election as head of the ruling party would lead to a new era in Japanese politics. The average age of the Ministers is well over 60, and many have struggled vigorously for Mr Tanaka in his fight for the partly- leadership against the former Foreign Minister, Mr Takeo Fukuda. Mr. Fukuda is reported to have refused an invitation to join the Cabinet, and two of his supporters who were named in the announcement of the new Cabinet later said they would not serve.

The action of the two, Mr Mike and Mr Arita. is thought to be unprecedented and is a serious setback to Mr Tanaka's hopes of restoring unity within his party, which has been strained by factional struggles. The election of Mr Tanaka, aged 54, was intended to make the ruling Liberal Democratic Party more acceptable to the disenchanted voters in forthcoming elections. Instead, it may have done more to promote disharmony among the leadership. Mr Tanaka was formally installed by Emperor Hirohito in a ceremony at the Imperial Palace this afternoon.

8 5 Showcase J. Record Budget in Rhodesia From PETER NIESEWAND Salisbury, July 7 The Rhodesian Finance Minister, Mr John Wrathall, will present a record Budget next Thursday, fallowing an increase of 22 per cent in Government spending, which leaves a theoretical budgetary gap of $R50 millions (about 30 millions). Financial observers suggest that he may wish to hold down private consumption by tax rises or by a tighter rein on the monetary situation, in view of the sharp rise in public expenditure. Some of the most significant increases in Government spending in the coming financial year have been allocated to the army and air force (apparently to buy new equipment) to African and European education, and to the- Tribal Trust Lands for development. The army's revenue vote has been increased by SR2.29 millions to SR14.36 millions while the air force vote goes up by SR1.48 millions, to a millions.

Rhodesia's tobacco crop, once the country's biggest single export, remains the major victim of economic sanctions. Last year, Mr Wrathall allocated $R19 millions to subsidise the industry. This yeari the figure is $R20 millions. I 12 50 Farmhouse Kitchen: jams and preserves. I 20 All Our Yesterdays.

Viewed at close range, the South Vietnamese drive to recapture Quang Tri province is hardly the romp that it appears to be from Saigon, where the Government -is claiming its troops have recaptured the provincial capital Quan'g Tri city. The advance is a series of short and unspectacular gains by the country's best troops against stubborn opposition, achieved after hard fighting across devastated terrain, and only with intensive air support. With each step northward by the marines and airborne troops leading the drive, the dfences of Hu are spread more thinly, and the western flank of the South Vietnamese forces is left more exposed. There are widely expressed fears that the marines and airborne are being lured into a trap, to be pulverised by North Vietnamese artillery or to be cut off by an attack to their rear. Those fears were reinforced yesterday by the heaviest North Vietnamese shelling of Hue in a year or more, and today by the reappearance of North Vietnamese troops behind the air-borne's forward lines.

There is little sign here near the" front lines that the North Vietnamese are short of supplies or ammunition. Military officers who 5 News. 6 15 Saints Alive. 6 35 There Go I. 7 0 Songs That Matter.

The Prime Minister came home therefore to find Cabinet unity challenged from both the secular Left and the theocratic Right. From this week's perspective it looks as if she preferred a showdown with the Independent Liberals and Marxist Mapam rather than a break with the National Religjpus Party. Mrs Meir and her Labour majority have agreed that the National Religious MPs may abstain on an amendment on Agndat Israel bill but without infringing the coalition compact.

Equally Mapam could abstain on Mr Gideon Hausner's Civil Marriages Bill. But if Mr Hausner's Independent Liberals forced the bill to a vote they would have to leave the Government. So would Mapam if its members trooped into the same lobby. All now depended on Mr Hausner. an honourable and tenacious man.

He announced late last night that he was going ahead. His civil marriage proposals would be pressed before the Knesset goes into recess at the end of the month. Why the dispute should have reached critical proportions remains a mystery. There are those who argue that Mrs Meir is anxious for an election this year rather than next when the present session runs out. 6 5 News.

In the four days since Mrs Meir returned from Vienna and the Socialist International she has been in almost continuous consultation with her fractious partners. Party caucuses have been in nightly huddle. The outcome is that the1 country is back to coalition conflict and the prospect of an early election, however reluctantly anticipated, still exists. While Mrs Meir was abroad the parliamentary dispute over civil marriage sprouted a malign twin. Rabbi Shlomo Lorincz, an ultra-orthodox MP, threatened a private amendment to a Bill regulating who is a Jew.

It would have recognised only those conversions to Judaism carried out by the orthodox rabbis. Conversions through the reform and liberal synaeogues still beyond the Israeli pale would not be valid under the law of return which gives every Jew the right to Israeli citizenship.
