CURRENT INTELLIGENCE WEEKLY SUMMARY
at least double their rep-
resentation.
Some of the anti-Gaullist
leaders except the UNR to lose
100 seats. Since it has no
political philosophy apart from
banking De Gaulle and since it
lacks both cohesion and a strong
party machine, its fortunes
are directly dependent on De
Gaulle. There is little
chance, however, that De Gaulle
will campaign directly for the
UNR as a party.
At best, Gaullist candi-
dates can hope for some public
gesture of support from the
Association for the Fifth
Republic, which André Malraux
has organized to back any
candidate it considers favor-
able to the Gaullist cause.
Malraux has covered nearly
every constituency in his list
of approved candidates, a third
of whom are running under other
than UNR iabels-—largely Inde-
pendents and Popular Republicans.
Repatriates from Algeria
are nowhere sufficiently numerous
to elect their own representa-
tives independently but will
probably cast decisive votes
against the UNR in many southern
and southwestern constituencies,
particularly where agricultural
unrest is expected to prompt
many erstwhile UNR supporters
to return to their traditional
Radical and Socialist loyalties.
Of all the center parties,
the Popular Republicans seem
to be in the best tactical
position to profit from UNR
losses, particularly in Brittany
and Normandy where they are
running youthful newcomers who
have won prominence as labor
union and farm organization
leaders. \ \
