...hard to complete the dominance of his own Radical Socialists. He plans wherever possible to run youthful "Jacobin" candidates against supporters of his longtime friend, Edgar Faure, who is now his dearest enemy. In the interest of "clarity," he expelled seven top opponents, chief among them ex-Premier Rene Mayer, whose scathing attack on Mendes over North Africa brought Mendes' downfall. In L'Express, Mendes laid down the lines of his campaign. The real choice, he proclaimed, "is between action and immobility, between the promoters of action and those guilty of 'immobilism...
