PARIS, Dec. Is (NANA)@
The French government Ia fac
ing Q "crisis of conscience"
which could become another
Dreyfus Case, with all Of the

quences Of that historic cause
celebre.
This is now called here the
"audin case" Involved is Q 30
year-old assistant professor at
the University of Algiers who
vanished without q trace last
June after being taken away
for questioning by French para
troopers.
As with Capt. Dreyfus. wide
spread interest In the case has
developed slowly. It has re-
ceived only scant attention
from most Of the French press.
especially from those news
papers which fully support Q
tough" policy In Algeria.
But questions are starting to
be asked. The League Of the
Rights Of Man. the French
equivalent Of the American
Civil Liberties Union. has as
serted It's interest. The always
influential French intellectuals
are referring to the case more
and more frequently In their
Writings and lectures. Prof,
Audin's young wife is pressing
President Rene Coty for an Of
ficial investigation Of her hus-
bands fate. She Is certain he
has been murdered.
! Retaliation Defended
There Is Q strong feeling here
that as long as the Algerian
Nationalists engage in terrorism
against civilians. retaliation is
both necessary and justified.
But there are signs that the
Audin case may prove different.
that Il may stir up consciences
and generate protests where
other outrages Of similar nature
have not.

mates ''in absentia" to Prof,

Walters Union
Debates Reporting
Of Tips To Boss

Chicago tANP)-Two major
discussions highlighted the saith
annual convention Of the Hotel
and Restaurant and Bartenders
International Union here last
week when a civil rights resolu-
ton was adopted by the group,
and a heated debate on walters
tips arose.
The elected delegates in attend
ance adopted a resolution en-
powering newly elected president
Ed S. Miller with the authority
to set up a special committee on
civil rights. Numerous proposals
dealing with rights had been in
troduced by the Resolutions Com
mittee.
The issue Of whether walters
bellmen and other service en-
ployees in tipping jobs, should re-
port their gratuities to the boss
for social security purposes, caus-
ed heated debate as walters bitter
ly protested the suggestion.
Currently the Social Security
Act make no provision for tips
and contributions turned over to
the employer in order that he may
make a social security contribu-
ton based on earnings.
However, bitter opposition
came from walters from Los An
geles and San Francisco, who in
sisted that 1T was none of the
boss business what the custo-
mer gave the waiter" and that it
would only make the process of
getting higher wages from en-
ployers more difficult.
A compromise proposal, drawn
up at the end of debate, instructed
the International Union to draft
an amendment to the Act to per-
NIT the reporting of tips for So
cial Security purposes in the same
manner self-employed persons
now make contributions into their
social security accounts.
