Whether you know.In particular detall what those ideas are of not, you. will certainty recognize that they are motivated by a differant’ . 8at of Ideas than, : for example, President Francois Mitterrand of France. Mitterrand, hidebound by the sociallat tdeas of the past is pursuing In his country a set of economic policies which have been declalvaly rejected In both the United States and the United Kingdom. Nationalization of the banks, wage and price controls, inflationary finance to name only a few of thie planks: in Mitterrand's shaky policy: platform. The. Consequences of Mr, Mitterrand’s ideology are plain to - see. In March and April the inflation rata In France was nearly 14 per cent and for the year will likely ba betwean 10 and 12 per cent — more than double the rate in Britalrt and the United States. | At the oment 45 pericent.of .

Demonstrations of atudents and | farmera which one has come to expect have bean over- shadowed by protest marches by the police who assert - that the government Is soft on‘ crime. Mitterrand's © rasponse to the matier struck a familiar Canadian chord In that he called the pollee march a. “seditious demonstration”, - So The concerns In France. are mare than almply economic. There la now widespread concern in the - university estabtishment that Mitterrand's expressed . Intention to make the university system more responsive to society and to industry's technological needa is really a thinly velied attempt to extend tha government's Idedlogical control over the univaralties, As one Sor- ‘ Bonne professor put It: “The result of the government's Initiative will be the appointment of university professora.on the basis of politics and Idology rather than on scholarship." . - ” .
