Paris, Nov. 24.
Right-wing supporters of Premier Charles de Gaulle piled up a big lead today in French National elections that sent the Communists down to one of their worst defeats. Mounting returns from the balloting for the Fifth Republic's new stream- lined National Assembly showed a growing margin for rightist parties led by pro-Gaullist independents and Information Minister Jacques Soustelle's strongly Gaullist "Union for the New Republic" (UNR).

Before little Pamela left Genon. Italy, all by herself to begin the 10,000-mile journey to Hongkong, she promised or mother that she would not go ashore when the ship docked at Singapore because of the current polio epidemic here. Therefore, when the

The Construction Company represented by Mr C. d'Almada Remedios had been doing work on Nos. 16 and 18 Conduit Roud, above Kwok's house. They denied negligence, and claimed if there WES any negligence it was that of the Kle Hop Scaffolding Factory.
