M. Gaillard's Move

To Control Nation's Inflation

Paris, Dec. 3. The French Government of Premier Felix Gaillard today announced drastic now measures to halt the drain on France's foreign currency reserves and "control" French inflation.

Official sources said the government would appoint a three-man brains-trust to control prices.. This economic "committee”, which will have a cer- tain amount of foreign currency at its dis- posal, will make large-scale importations of specific products whenever the prices of these products rise "too high” on the French mar- ket, the effect being to lower the prices. The government also decided to reduce by 90 thousand million franes the amount of subsidies paid to French industries. It decided to raise prices of imported goods in accordance with the "unofficial devaluation" of the French franc.

A Young Peer Flays Plan To Admit Women

Of Lords

London, Doc. 3.

ផត

A tail, handsome young Conservative peer, Earl Farrers,

ex-Guards officer, tonight surprised fellow peers by donouncing a Government proposal to allow woman to sit and vote in the House of Lords.

Earl Ferrers (Robert Washing- ton Shirley), 28 and 6 ft. 6 in. tall, is a married man with two children,

He contended that if this sort of emancipation of women was carried much further, even the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Geoffrey Fisher, would have to look out.

He might find him- self out of a job.

He predicted there might be lady judges and even "female ambarcadors" to follow the "rather vulgar example set by the Americans."

FOR KEEPS?

►

Another Conservative

peer, Lord Airlie, 04, said he would move amendments later in the session to keep the women out of the Lords,

"Once they are in they are in for_keeps," he said.

He asked whether the Gov- ernment did not have bigger things to think of the Middle East, Sputnik, a sick President of the United States, Inflation

and a lot of other things."
