France wants the border
sealed and has devoted most
of its military efforts in Algeria
in the past year to patrolling
and fortifying the border area.
If the Algerian rebels can be
deprived of their Tunisian
bases, then, the French army
believes. the military phase of
the rebellion can be wrapped
up in short order.
France would love to have
Tunisia deny aid to the rebels,
specifically to join in a joint
patrol of the border. II Mr..
,Bourguiba rejects this proposal,
the French government says,
he will be charged publicly,
probably in the United Nations,
with a virtual act of war
deliberately aiding the rebels.
There are indications that
the French position is not
really this tough. but that it
will insist on some mechanism
for at least enough border

the base would rust, as Tunisia
has no navy. and the base is
not necessary to any other
country or NATO.
If the base is deserted. thou
sand of Tunisians will be with

economy.
Mr.. Bourguiba says the base
might be turned over to NATO

rule out the possibility of BIZ
zerte becoming a NATO base
manned by French sailors.
NATO spokesman say this could
be worked out technically if 1t
became desirable politically.
Border is Big Issue
Probably the toughest prob
lem that still remains is the
border. Algerian rebels openly
use Tunisian soil for bases
for training camps, hospitals,

even for holding French pris-
oners. Mr.. Bourguiba and his
government admit frankly to
reporters they are helping the
rebels. at least by providing
this sanctuary. The French
say the government also helps

bombing of Sakiet these civil
ians we're unframed. Tunisia
wants all the troops to leave,

naval base of Bizerte. This
would demonstrate to the ma
tionalists that Tunisia is indeed
a sovereign country, able to
eject foreign soldiers any time
it wishes-but able to keep
them if that is what it wishes.
And Tunisia wants France to
finish training and equipping
the embryo TuniSian defense
forces.
France has agreed to all this,
in past private negotiations
provided she can stay in BIZ

and Brennan, Mr.. MacGuinea,
admitted the Justice Depart
ment believed Secretary
Brucker should not have based
the discharges on pre-induc.
ton activities.
But. he eontended. the courts
still have no authority 70 cor
rect the action.
Justice Brennan leaned for
ward. do you mean you're
wrong. but that there Is MOTH
ing the courts can do about
it7" he asked.
That's right" the attorney
replied. He said the Army De-
partment had been apprised Of
the Justice Departments at
titude.
Later. Solicitor General J
Lee Rankin and Assistant At
torney General George Cochran
Doub told reporters the Army
had been told the Justice De-
partment did not approve its
policy in the cases and that
they could be defended only
on the ground the courts lack
power to act.
The Army reported 1t has
been reviewing $50 cases OF
security discharges. OF 2ll

SO have been upgraded to gen.
eral discharges under honor
able conditions. OF 435 general
discharges given. SIS have beer

rated excellent while he was in
the Army.
Federal Judge Luther w.
Youngdahl regretfully ruled he
could not void the undesirable
discharge. He he'll. the court
did not have jurisdiction and he
suggested that Congress look
into the Army's method Of ar
irving at what type Of discharge
TO give.
His view was upheld by the
U. S. Court Of Appeals in a =
toll decision. The appellate
court also held that the court
could not review the Army's
action as to the type Of dis
charge it chooses to give as
long as administrative require
ments are met.
Second Case Similar
Mr.. Abramowitz' case was
similar. He had been honor
ably separated from the Army
in 1858 and assigned 10 the
enlisted reserve. Later. the
Army questioned him as TO re-
ports he had been a Communist
before he was indicted origin
ally. He Vas told his retention
in the Army was not clearly
consistent with the national
security. He declined q chance
for a field board hearing. de-
claring the Army's action was
Illegal.
Subsequently he was given
the undesirable discharge. The
discharge was upheld by Fed
eral Judge Edward NJ. Curran
also on the ground that the
court was powerless to review

the attorneys declared. They
argued that the type Of dis
charge should reflect only the
character Of the man and the
quality Of his service while he
was in the Army.
