The stakes were defined, eddly enough, by one of the candidates who is given the least chance of attracting votes --Pierre Marcilhacy, 55, a sen- ator who has been faintly praised for conservative sincer- ity while failing to ra'ly serious support Marcilhacy told 'millions of TV viewers in the series of pre- recorded speeches that the fu- ture France will be decided for the next seven years--the pres- idential term -- by Sunday's vote. He added: "Seven years is a long time in the life of a man and in the life of a country." - MAKES SECOND SPEECH General de Gaulle, making only his second speech of the campaign, saw even more long- range results from the vote. Repeating his firm condem- nation -of--the-eld-line parties which he insisted that the cur rent opposition represents, de Gaulle said the vote 'will com- mit, without doubt forever, the destiny of our country." Despite the. growing popular ity of the opposition and his own apparently declining sup- port, the 75-year-old president generally is expected to be re- elected To do so, he must attract an absolute majority of the valid ballots from the more than 28,- 000,000 eligible voters in France and its overseas territories. 'f no one emerges with a clear majority, a second vote would be held two weeks later between the two leading candidates. The odds-on favorite as run- ner - up to de Gaulle, left-wing candidate Francois Mitterand, contented himself Friday night with a summation of previous appeals to left-wing voters for their support of a program that includes social and economic reform and a more positive approach to international rela- tions.

His ambitious goal was to stop the First World War. Now, at a time when protest- ers against American military involvement in Viet Nam march across the United States, few members of the Ford peace mission still are alive. Those who are reject any sug- gestion of a parallel between their peace campaign and the drive to get the U.S. out. of Viet Nam. Ford and his followers hoped to end the First World War be- fore the U.S. could be pulled into it. Their chosen instrument was something they called the Neu- tral Conference for Continuous BUT IMAGE NEEDS POLISH REGINA (CP)--Canada must solve its problems to maintain an image of unity before the developing nations, Soligitor General Larry Pennell said Fri- . Pennell told the annual banquet of the Saskatchewan Liberal Association that Canada is one of the few nations ac- ceptable for peace-keeping oper- ations.
