The Fellagah leader is identi-

In May this army Of liberia
tion," known simply as the Fell
lagahs and once considered only
bandits, started a hit-and-run
warfare against the French with
naked terror as a weapon. The
terror is still going on.
I have seen do-China and I
have seen nationalist movements
in action in many parts Of the
world. In North Africa there
are all the elements for a future
bloody hide-and-seek war. The
nervous peace enforced by guns
in Tunis is broken frequently by
violent death which stalks
Frenchman and Moslem alike in
the dark.
Difficult to Raise Troops.
The French say the Fellagahs
number only about 800 but admit
they now are organized. Tuni-
slams say the Fellagahs number
many more, an organized force
which can march miles on almost
no food under harsh conditions
in a type of guerilla warfare. To
match that the French would
need equally hardy native troops.
Raising such a force is difficult
fear Of reprisals against fami-
lies is fresh in the minds Of all
Tunisians.
Fellagah reinforcements are
believed to train in a school near
Tripoli, in Libya. This report
came from many sources, both
French and Tunisian. They
agree that the Fellagahs are be-
ing trained with modern weap-
ons, although they use leftover
guns Of World War II. The
Fellagahs are often uniformed
and often wear insignia Of rank.
Some belief is expressed that
North African soldiers captured
In Indo-C China by the Commu-
nists have received political re-
education" and been sent to
Tunisia to train and possibly
even lead Fellagahs. French
sources say bodies Of North At
.rican veterans have turned up
among the Fellagah dead In Tu-
nissan skirmishes.
Other sources believe ex-NaZis
from Egypt are active. Both
Tunisian and French sources
agree that the Fellagah army is

Now the attacks are growing in
strength. A pitched battle with
q force Of about 100 was re-
ported recently.
The Fellagahs live on the land,

who are obliged to shelter them
or suffer death.
Many Of the things the Fell
lagahs do are not characteristic

Fellagahs from MoSlem Cairo
