.NAT0 General

PARIS, June 16 (P.-France
announced today she has re-
called one of her key repre-
sentatives from the allied Euro
pean military command to help
counter new nationalist disturb
ances in French North Africa.
Maj. Gen. Henri Lorillot, who
headed the plans, policy and
operations section at Supreme
Headquarters. Allied Powers
Europe (SHAPE), is taking over
the Algers region command.
Only three weeks ago France
pulled out an entire infantry
division from the North At
lantic Treaty Organization
forces in Europe because of the
troubled North Africa scene.
Gen. Lorillot headed one of
eight command sections under
Gen. Alfred M. Gruenther, SUI
preme allied commander in Eu-
rope, and was the third ranking
Frenchman on Gen. Gruenther's
immediate staff.
The 53-year-old general served
in France until the German oc-
cupation in World War II and
later was a liaison officer with
Britain's 1st Army.
He held commands in Indo-
China and Algeria until October,
1853. when the French placed
him at the disposition of SHAPE.
The latest disturbance in AL
geria occurred yesterday when
"a band of dozen rebels at
tackled a French military con-
voy of Algerian riflemen in the
rugged Aures Mountains. Two
rebels were reported slain and
four Algerian soldiers wounded.
Violence also broke out in other
parts of the country.
Algeria is technically an in
tegral part of European France,
unlike Tunisia and Morocco,
which are French protectorates.
France recently granted Tunisia
a large measure of autonomy.
Since then nationalist terrorism
has broken out anew in Algeria
and Morocco.
The French cabinet discussed
North African troubles for i've
hours yesterday.

European Correspondent Of The Star
PARIS, June 16.--One gets
the impression here that in their
wary approach to the summit
various great power spokesmen
are wasting a great deal of val
liable breath. What has been
said so far on both sides has
not encouraged hope for an
Iamicable meeting in Geneva at
the end of next month nor for a
real turn for the, better in the
cold war. is
Those who take the confer
|ence seriously-and this includes
Ia large majority of Europeans
have looked forward to an hon.
est attempt on both sides to ex-
'plore areas of possible agree
ment between Russia and the
West. What they feel they have
seen so far-with growing cyni-
c. IN and disappointment-is an
earnest effort by the respective
leaders to map out areas of max
mum disagreement. The obvious
inference being drawn is that the
Geneva conference will turn out
to be exactly what the pessi-
mists all along have warned it
might be-another weary, mean
ingless propaganda battle staged
between men who cannot resist
the temptation of q world forum
to prove once more how much
they diStrtlst and dislike each
other.
Danger to Conference
The fact that Secretary of
State Dulles and President Eli
senhower should consider the
conference a suitable place to
discuss the status of Russia S
satellites and the menace of
international communism has
raised a laugh here. But it is a
bitter laugh. The general feeling
lis that the Secretary would have
had to look a long way to find two
subjects more likely to wreck the
conversations at the start and
to throw a quick freeze over
whatever inclinations toward
Cancellation the Kremlin may
feel.
Fortunately Russian Foreign
Minister Molotov has also con-
tributed his bit. His own agenda
for the conference is every bit
Jas uncompromising as Mr.
Dulles own. His four points for
discussion are: Prohibition of
atomic weapons, a European COL
Ilective security system. peace in
Asia, and China's lawful posi-
ton" among great powers. The
most sanguine European must
admit that it is hardly a prom
Using agenda. 1t is, in fact, ex-
|actly where he came in a year
ago at time of the Berlin con-
ference and to the extent that
Mr.. Molotov sticks to it, it prom
ises exactly same result.
Britain's Foreign Minister
Macmillan's contribution is q
statement to the House of Com
mons which left most of his
listeners asking themselves why
the Geneva conference was be-
ing held at all. In the course
of it, Mr.. Macmillan heavily
underscored the basic problem of
the Western leaders: Inability
to decide whether recent Russian
moves add up to a reaSsuring
new policy toward Europe or a
subtle and deadly threat to the
safety and unity of the NATO
alliance. The main point of the
coming conference, as he saw
it, was to get a clearer picture
of the issues which divide both
sides and the suspicious which
they entertain about each other.
His chief concern. it seemed,
was that people might expect
too much in the way of results.

SOUTHAMPTON, England,
June Is (P).-Britain's wildcat
seamen's strike forced the 81, ,000-
ton liner Queen Mary to cancel
her New York sailing today and
squeezed Britain's harried pas
senger lines into a tight corner.
The strikers had pinned their
hopes on tying up the Mary, a
pride of the great Cunard fleet,
They were convinced her sailing
would doom the walkout which
already has tied up the $4,000
ton Mauretania and five other
transatlantic liners.
The strikers failed last week
to hold up the Queen Elizabeth,
flagship of the line.
Cunard's attempts to get the
Mary underway were blasted
just 10 minutes before sailing
time, when 120 crewmen joined
500 others of the 1,267-member
crew who had walked off the
ship yesterday.
Many of the 100 pullouts said
they had not sympathized with
the unauthorized strike. But
they charged the line during the
night had brought aboard $50
recruits whom the seamen called
"scab labor"
Some 1,100 New York bound
passengers began disembarking
as the Mary's loudspeakers
blared out the news. Among
them were so members of the
d'Oyly Carte Opera Company
en- route for a Gilbert and Sulli-
van tour of the United States
and Canada.
Anticipating the tieup, Cunard
had two trains ready to take the
passengers back to London. It
also told them attempts would
be made to obtain alternative
transatlantic transportation"
Since the walkout began, about
1000 persons who had been
booked aboard tied-up liners
have received passage aboard

Leading the Republican at

Phillips declared that the issue
confronting Congress "is where

Europeans Hopes Dim
For Amity at Summit

ment around these parts, the
concern of the people, however,
is of a different kind. They are
not expecting the conference to
produce miracles of reconcilia-
ton. What worries them is the
thought the conference may put
| a sudden end to the hopeful
trend in East-West relations
that has existed for the last few
months.
1t is feared the meeting of the
top leaders. held in an atmos-
phere of suspicion and mutual
antagonism in which both sides
spend their time probing each
others tender spots, can hardly
be expected to contribute much
to a relaxation of international
tension. A shining example of
such a meeting was last years
conference at Berlin which
served only to harden the posi-
tions on both sides and add an
other layer of armor to the iron
curtain. q 80
1t was q reflection of this fear,
perhaps that inspired the plea
of the French government, that a
halt should be called to the
|preconference shadow boxing
that is going on. Mr.. Pinay him
self has so far maintained a
discreet silence. u
Statement Not Clear
But the idea has been care
fully planted here that nothing
should be done to crystalize the
position or create what the
French call a "polemical atmos-
Iphere" for the meeting. The rest
Iof the French statement dealing
with their hopes for a settlement
Iof the German problem and
prospects of a European security
Organization is perhaps less than
a model of clarity. 1t even con-
tanned a hint of a possibly serious
division in the Western camp
by pointedly emphasizing the
willingness Of the French and
British to discuss Far Eastern
questions with no mention of
any objection the United States
would be likely to raise to such
a proposal.
| At the same time it served as
an earnest reminder to other Big
Four leaders that they have a
serious job to perform at Geneva
in exploring carefully and pa
tiently questions on which an
ultimate agreement is possible
Anything less than this-any
repetition of the performance of
last year in Berlin-would create
popular reaction which at this
time the West can hardly afford.

The authority, he said, would

private power group won't have

area because the people there
won't buy the power.
Democrats, with a majority of
29 members in the House. faced
the virtually certain loss of six
votes in the Arkansas delega-
ton whose members are behind

under way at West Memphis,

Other Losses Seen
1t seemed equally certain that
there would be losses elsewhere,
principally in the north, where
some members who represent
constituencies that already have
lost industries to the South be-
cause of the cheaper power
rates for which the iva claims
credit, might be reluctant to give
further aid to the cheap-rate
The Republicans also have
their troubles, and are counting
on a loss of six to eight votes.

day afternoon, the House battled
