Paris, Nov, 12.
Premier Pierre Mendes-France threatened retaliatory measures today unless Egypt halts its "inflammatory” broadcasts to North Africa.

Wellington, Nov. 13.
New Zealand will go to the polls today in a general election fought almost entirely on domestic issues, with scarcely any controversy in the international field.
Party leaders told the electors in final speeches that they faced the issue of 'Socialism and anti-Socialism — but
observers say the gulf
between the National (Government) and Labour (Opposition) parties is narrower than for instance between Conservative and Labour in Britain.
Appeals to the electors have been based mainly on auch issues as cost of living, housing and extension of the social security system.
The
National Party, under Prime Minister Sidney Holland. haa sought 10 convince the electorate that fulfilment of Labour's promises would cost the nation at least 50 million sterling more annually from the state revenues, while the Nationalists also affirm that the theories
of the third party, Social Credit, would result in Kuns of paper money, unbacked by production of goods and services.
