French Elections. France completes elections for the first national assembly under Charles Degaulle's new Constitution. The result is an overwhelming vote of confidence for De Gaulle as all opposition is smashed. People wait in long lines (queues). People in Arab (?) clothing cast ballots. Voting. Crowds, reporters, man speaking into microphones for the press. Several people talking on telephones. Scenes in what might be a French governmental building.
