North Africans Send
Protest 10 President

The Committee for Freedom OF
North Africa has asked President
Eisenhower to protest to French
Premier Mendes-France the use
OF American arms TO suppress
naticnaliSm In North Africa.
In q letter dispatched just be-
fore Mr.. Mendes-France arrived
in Washington, the committee
also asked the President to give
moral support to q French North
African roundtable conference
for the settlement Of the Tunis-
ian. Algerian and Moroccan
problems.
Ell Abed Bouhafa. the COM
Imittee representative. said hopes
were raised last August when
Premier Mendes- France an
nounced a policy or negotiations
in lieu of force to settle the Tu-
nisian conflict. But. he said,
realities have not matched good
intentions.
He said French authorities in
Tunisia still carry on military
operations against heroes Of the
nationalist movement. and in
Morocco police measures and
military repression continue
while the issue Of the deposition
Of the Sultan, Sidi Mohamed
Ben Yussef, remains unsolved.
The spokesman said to these
situations has been added a
crisis in Algeria. where French
troops, using American tanks,
guns and planes, are engaged in
a real war of determination
against patriots.
He declared the conditions are
creating an Indo- China type OF
situation which will lead to Com
munist domination of North
Africa unless corrected.

I'VE cannot be unconcerned
with Communist expansion and
permit them to build up to the
point where there is an atomic
stalemate in which we would
be powerless to stop them"
Urges "Moral Sanction"
Senator Knowland said he
believes there are several ways
short of war In which. the So
viets could be put on the de-
fensive. A break in diplomatic
relations, he said, would pro-
vide a moral sanction" which
would make the rest Of the world
sit up and take notice.
The majority leader added
that whether he pushes his pre-
yious demand for a reassessment
of foreign policy will depend on
developments in Europe and
Asia.
He said he is awaiting foreign
parliamentary developments on
the agreements between French
Premier Mendes-France and
West German Chancellor Ade-
nauer on the Saar and the re-
arming Of West Germany.
He also wants to learn. SEN
ator Knowland said, whether

Army Re-enIisfments
Hit Two-Year Peak
And Continue 10 Rise
Ry John A. Giles

Re-enlistments in the Regular
Army have suddenly jumped to
q new two-year high and are
still climbing, officials revealed
today.
They attributed this steady
rise to a combination of factors.
but were inclined to minimize
any effects of unemployment.
Draft calls now are running
at $4,000 a month. II the re-
enlistment rate of Regulars con-
tinues to rise, the calls are
expected to drop below that
figure sometime next year.
In September - the latest
month for which reports have
been received and tabulated at
the Pentagon - 40.2 per cent of
Regular Army personnel whose
enlistments expired signed up
for additional bitches. This
compared with only 11.3 per cent
in January and an average of
II per cent during the fiscal year
ended last June 30. OF 9.028 en-
listed men eligible to remain dur
ing September. 1865 re-enlisted.
Other Branches Up.
National Guardsmen and re-
servists on active Army duty also
are remaining in increasing
numbers. More than 81 per cent
decided to continue in the Army
in September. compared with an
average Of S3 per cent during the
last fiscal year.
At the same time, however,
the percentage of draftees elect
ing to remain in uniform has
shown a steady decline. Only 3
per cent decided to remain in
September. compared with an
average of more than Z per cent
during the last fiscal year.
Army officials, who long have
worried about the inability to
retain the well trained hard core
regular enlisted personnel are
greatly encouraged by the ris-
ing rate.
Bonus Is Persuader.
They say it is very difficult to
single out any one factor which
might be responsible for the in
crease. However, they list the
newly enacted re-enlistment
bonus as a primary factor. I'M
der that arrangement a man
who re-enlists for the first time
receives a bonus of the amount
of his monthly base pay times
the number of years for which
he signs up. Thus, a private
first class who re-enlists for
four years gets $428 in cash.
The display of interest in the
problem of keeping career men
shown by Congress and high De-
tense Department officials lis
listed as another factor.
But an even greater reason is
believed to be the new system
of stabilization of tours Of do
nestle duty, thus allowing more
family life. Men are now assured
18 months service in this country
before going overseas. Personnel
with 20 years service remain in
the United States unless they
volunteer for overseas posts.
Whole units also are now be-
ing rotated, compared with the
old system Of individual re-as-,
signments from this country to
overseas stations. Personnel also
are now allowed to re-enlist for
duty in specific Army areas in
this country.

amateur.

Americas top amateur golfers.
There was some resentment
among the ordinary week end
amateurs when they had to play

circuit-and even beat the top
pros occasionally. Frank didn't
improve that situation by oc-

his status was that he, too, con-
sidered the situation slightly
unfair.
The pros found Stranahan &C
ceptable, even though he won
four tournaments and tied for
first in another over a half dozen
years. At least he didn't take
their money.
Stranahan also shares the
touring professionals aversion to
match play with its 18-hole
knockout" matches. Although
he has won the British Amateur
twice and the Canadian ANA
teur twice in this kind of COM
petition, Frank prefers the To-
hole stroke play tournaments. He
has won the Tam O'Shanter All
American Amateur six time and
the worlds championship five
times and twice tied for second
