ELECTION TO BE CONTESTED
MOVE BY GENERAL DE GAULLE
GROUP TO PRESENT CANDIDATES (N.Z. Press Association—Copyright)
(Rec. 11.30 p.m.) PARIS, August 25. General de Gaulle, on the third anniversary of his entry into liberated Paris, called on Frenchmen to forsake political differences and help him to bring his Rally of the French People to triumph at the October municipal elections, at which the rally would present candidates throughout France. General de Gaulle said that the rally was not a party. Its candidates would be men and women of diverse tendencies who had become champions for the task of public salvation. Every retiring councillor would be able without renouncing his convictions to join the rally, on condition that he contracted to follow it.
