Indefatigable Mendes-France Again Does 'The Impossible' PARIS (Reuters) Pierre Mendes-France again has done the "impossible." Even if he had failed to win Thursday's final National Assembiy vote on German rearmament, this swarthy little man would have been hailed throughout France as the "man of the year." Through the gruelling last 11 days of assembly debate, the 47. year-old French premier never wavered. but fought with the dynamic tenacity that has characterized his stormy political career since he took office last June. Despite his popularity at home and abroad. Mendes France is still precariously perched on the French political teeter-totter.

In Thursday's victory, he won only gles with political foes who breathing space for new epic strughave dogged his path for the last seven months. FOILED EXPERTS BEFORE Observers in Paris believe he will be able to hold his government together at least until the end of January. But he has fooled the experts before. Controversal, forceful often blunt to the point of rudenessMendes-France has earned himself almost as many bitter enemies as fervent admirers. His appearances in the French provinces have brought waves of public enthusiasm which veteran French observers have rarely encountered.

Some of the premier's opponents are jealous of his success, and they show spite and envy. Others genuinely believe he "sold to the Communists in Indochina and now is betraying French interests in South Vietnam to the United States. HARD WORKER He shuns public functions and Paris society life wherever possible. He has no gift for smalltalk-he believes a man should speak only when there is something important to say. An indefatigable workef, in his seven months in office he has shown a natural talent for complicated dipiomatic negotiations and a grasp of world problems as complete as his life-long study of domestic issues.

The future of Mendes-France1 is as unpredictable as was that of any of the other 20 post-war premiers Airline Promotes Former City Man Thomas R. Nolan, former cargo supervisor for Northwest Airlines in Edmonton, has been appointed director of a new air freight sales division the airlines in St. Paul, Minnesota.

Expert Gives Tips On Winter Driving Here are a few tips for the Edmonton motorists who have had trouble with stalled autos during the winter's first cold spell. They come from A.

W. Albright, retiring superintendent of the city garage, who besides looking after 370 cityowned vehicles reports he has no trouble starting his own car at 30 below zero, without the use of a heated garage or any type of heating equipment. Spark plugs and points in the distributor should be clean and properly adjusted, says Mr. Allbright. With a properly adjusted and a well-charged battery, carburetor tor mixture, a light oil there should not be too much trouble.

Low voltage in the battery is the chief cause of winter trouble, Mr. Albright said. Not all motorists will have as much success as Mr. Albright, he says, as different makes of cars have combustion chambers which provide easier starting in cold weather than others. His own car, he says, is one of the better models for this.

safety sake, Mr. Albright advises motorists not to follow too closely the car ahead. Besides the danger of rear-end collision, carbon monoxide fumes from the vehicle in front may be carried through heating vents into the following car. Another safety measure he recommends is the use of frost shields to assure good vision and well -treaded tires. Award Contracts To City Firms Three Edmonton firms have been awarded contracts for installations at federal airports and militray camps in Alberta, according to officials of Central Housing and Mortgage Corporation.

A $46.000 contract for sewer and water connections for 60 housing units at Penhold airfield has been hade with Poole Construction Ltd. Hillas Electric Co. has been awarded a contract for electrical distribution for 94 units at Wainwright military camp. The contract is for $16,000. Sunley Electric Co.

has a contract for electrical distribution for 60 units at Penhold. This contract is for $16.000. Forty units at Claresholm are to be provided with electrical installations by North West Electric Co. Ltd. of Regina.

The price Is $8,000. Starting the car in a closed garage is a dangerous act. Carbon monoxide is invisible, odorless tasteless and kills very quickly. Deaths (Cont'd) COOK- On Dec. 30, Norman S.
