French Elections Set for Oct. 14 fate of the bi- in cameral system of government France is expected to be at stake Oct. 14 when the French people- at their first general election since before the war whether they wish to discard the constitution of 1875, under which 'the third republic was established. Gen. de Gaulle's council of ministers decided yesterday to call the election, placing a definite limit on the tenure of the present provision government.

The voters will be given an opportunity to elect a new national assembly in addition to deciding whether they wish to return to the constitution of 1875. Then New Constitution If the old consitution is voted down, the assembly will undertake the task of framing a new constitution. If the voters uphold the old constitution, the assembly will become the chamber of deputies and senate will be elected in the usual way. (Election of the French senate is by indirect vote, being composed of delegates chosen by the municipal council of each commune and by the deputies, councillorsgeneral and district councillors of each department.) The national assembly also will be charged with appointment of a provisional president to serve during its tenure, which is limited to seven months. Universal Suffrage Details concerning the procedure for electing the national assembly were not announced, but it was said voting would be on the basis of "universal suffrage." It was presumed de Gaulle and members of his cabinet would be candidates for the assembly, thus making the election a test of his popular support.

The constitutional issue was expected to hinge on the question of whether France should retain two legislative bodies- comparable to the American senate and house of representatives--as provided in the constitution of 1875. A bitter behind-the-scenes struggle on this issue was recently between De Gaulle and the extreme leftists, who have advocated a unicameral system. Political observers expressed belief the leftists stand was based on a hope they could more easily control a single chamber. De Gaulle has held out for a double chamber.

Clinton P.

Anderson, new secretary of Agriculture, let it be known that he is "joining forces with OPA" for that purpose. At the same time the House food investigating committee promised "investigate and expose" illicit operations that menace the nation's diet. A ranking official in Anderson's department said the new cabinet officer already has had several Price adminisconferencester Bowles and his OPA lieutenants. Plug Holes, Gaps The objective, said the official who asked that his name not, be used, "is an attempt to plug the holes and gaps that give rise to the black market." Anderson, he said, also is taking steps to equalize distribution of such scarce commodities as meat on the assumption that unequal supplies spurs black market trade. As a resuit, he added, plans are being prepared to spread the poultry procurement program now concentrated principally in Delaware, Maryland Virginia.

Under this arrangement, the areas in which poultry is set aside for government (primarily army) use would be extended westward to ease the burden on eastern states. Allow Compliance In another move, Anderson announced last night that regulations are being prepared to permit non-federally inspected slaughterers to comply with the so-called Patman amendment of the recently extended price control act. This would permit them to ship meat across state lines and to sell to the armed forces. About onethird of the meat now being processed is handled by such packers. Anderson said that among requirements for certification will be assurances that OPA regulations are observed, that meat will move in legitimate channels that the plants meet certain sanitary standards that their output be supervised by qualified inspectors and that they provide meat for governmental agencies when required to do so.

Chairman Pace (D-Ga), who succeeded Anderson as head of the food committee, disclosed the group's plans to hit at black outline markets in commenting on an of committee objectives, including a policy of "feed America first." "The committee will investigate and expose black market operations and submit suggestions, for combating this 1s not only greatly increasing the cost of food, but denies the people an equal share of the limited supply," Pace told a reporter. In addition, he said the committee would investigate "all cases of waste, spoilage and excess purchases by different agencies." Pace said the group thinks the army ought to have first call on food, but that thereafter "the next claim rightfully belongs to the American people." Juda Mrs. F. N. Miller, Cor.

Growing crops were about the only thing that did not create much competition. The hay in the field did not sell, the oats will be combined by the executrix of the estate and the growing corn will be cared for by a neighboring farmer. The crops were in good condition but farmers at a distance could not handle them and most farmers of the territory already had more work than they could handle. Taken as a whole the sale was good if not better than the winter time sales.
