1t. comdr. Gerard E. Hara-

said the current study will pro-
vide basic information lots of
people can use. Industrialists
interested in locating factories
often want to know something
of the speed at which waste

Sewer designers are similarly
interested. So are mariners and
so are engineers interested in
deeping the river.
A recent survey in New York

Eight Stores
AT Manassas
Defy Blue Law
Merchants Begin
Revolt Against
Sunday Closing

MANASSAS, Va, Nov. 6
(SpeciaD A merchants revolt
against Virginia's controversial
Sunday blue law began here
yesterday.
Commemorative Attorney H.
Selwyn Smith said about eight
stores in the immediate vicinity
of Manassas stayed open yes
terday in apparent defiance of
the Sunday blue law prohibit
ing sale of many items.
Mr.. Smith said the mer-
chants were unhappy with his
Interpretation of the law,
which differs from that in 9TH
er Northern Virginia jurisdic-
tions. The merchants think it
is far more strict.
Mr.. Smith said the revolt
apparently was sparked by two
chain stores that set the ex-
ample a week ago. They were
open again yesterday, Mr..
Smith said.
Country store merchants,
afraid that they might lose
business they would never get
back, also stayed open yester-
day. Mr.. Smith said.
He indicated that warrants
may be served against the mer-
chants today but added that
this is a police matter.
Prosecutor Blamed
Mr.. Smith noted that he had
met with local merchants be-
fore the law went into effect
to give his Interpretation of it.
"They all know what they
should do" he said. They say
they'll lose their Sunday trade.
I can understand that, but I'm
charged with upholding the
law, no matter how I feel about
it," he said.
He explained that he had
published a written memoran-
dunn on the new statute but
that the merchants blame
me for the whole law"
The Prince William revolt
was the first reported in. North
ern Virginia. Disgruntled mer-
chants and customers have
complained about the new law
since it went into effect. and
enforcement has varied in diff
ferent areas.
interpretations Differ
Mr.. Smith contended that
"the only people who've got a
right to operate ION Sunday
are businesses of necessity or
charity"
He said the law was very
clear on this point. He said
that, in effect, a man running
a country store hasn't got
anything to do but close up"
other Northern Virginia
Jurisdictions, such as Fairfax
and Arlington Counties, permit
the sale of food that can be
eaten without cooking.
Mr.. Smith interpreted the
law to read that the business
must prove it is a necessity or
charity before it can sell such
items.
AS for the sale Of items spe-
officially listed in the blue law.
Mr.. Smith said it does not say
anywhere in the law that these
items can be sold on Sunday.
other areas permit the sale Of
such items.
The new law took effect last
month after a court decision
upheld its validity. 1t replaced
a previous blue law.
The old law banned Sunday
business generally whereas the
new law, under interpretations
elsewhere, lists items that may
and may not be sold on Sun
day.

Spanish Police
Seize 17Foes
Of De Gau||e

MADRID, Oct. 9 (AP).-
Spanish security police today
held II former French army
officers and politicians who
have been waging a campaign
from exile against President de
Gaulle'S Algerian policy.
Police named only five of
those in custody, and appar-
emily ex-Gen. Raoul Salan, re-
garded as the master mind of
the rightist European under
ground army in Algeria, was
not among those rounded up.
Gen. Salar, former Supreme
French Commander in Algeria,
took refuge in Spain after fall
ing out with Gen. de Gaulle
but flew to Algiers to lead the
generals revolt there last April.
When the revolt was crushed,
he fled and his whereabouts is
not known. A French court
sentenced him in absentia to
death July IL.
Officials sources said the II
Frenchmen were seized in raids
Saturday night by Spanish Sc
curity agents at the request
of the French government.
They included Pierre Lagail-
larde, bearded ex-paratrooper
who was military leader Of the
Algiers Revolt Of the Barri-
cadeS" in January, 1860, and

in a circle. He went through
pressure tests, catapulting tests
and parachuting tests, includ-
ing landings in water, to get
ready for his take-off blast
August 6.
The man is handsome and a
good performer. The whole film
had an air Of gaiety and easy
accomplishment.
Rocket Height Unknown
1t was impossible to guess
the height Of the rocket which
launched Maj. Titov. One Sec
ton in the film, taken from
high on q platform, appeared to
be shot from about 100 feet up:
Another picture showed Mai.
Titov landing by parachute, as
he said he did. But it was
impossible to say whether the
shot presented in the film was
the actual landing or a simu-
lated one. .
HE will long remember the
paternal help given him by
(Premier) Khrushchev," the
narrator said.
That appeared likely. He and
Maj. Yuri A. Gagarin, who
made the first single orbit, are
this country's principal heroes.

Held in Theft

LOS ANGELES. Oct. 9 (AP)
Somebody recently stole a
$4,000 ring given to Mary Pick
ford by Douglas Fairbanks
more than IS years ago, and
Federal authorities said today
that the butler did it.
William Francis Paul, 46,
British born domestic who has
worked for the former actress
four years, was seized by FBI
agents last night as he stepped
off a plane from New York.
He is accused in a Federal
warrant of transporting in in
ternational commerce a Is
carat sapphire and two 60
carat diamond baguettes set in
a platinum mounting.
Authorities said he took the
ring from Los Angeles to
Zurich, Switzerland. The FBI
said he recently deposited the
ring with a Zurich jewelry
firm for appraisal. Zurich po-
lice said they asked him where
he got it and he told them he
found it in an airline waiting
room in Casablanca, Morocco.
The FBI was notified.
Miss Pickford and the late
Mr.. Fairbanks were divorced
in 1885. Miss Pickford now is
in the East with her present
husband, Buddy Rogers.

AIgerians Hear
Secret Army

ALGIERS, Oct. 9 (AP).-
The underground Secret Army
organization knocked the gov
ernment-run radio station off
the air again today and called
for total mobilization Of Al.
gerians to oppose the eStab-
hShed regime.
The Secret Army broadcast
came on during the noon hour.
after a regular news program
was cut off. Officials said the
electrical current for two
broadcasting stations had been
cut off through sabotage. After
the Commute pirate broadcast.
the airwaveS remained silent
for an hour before reSuming
regular programs.
A Secret Army announcer
ordered" all AlgerianS to "join
the Secret Army ranks"
BY the end Of the year the
Secret Army will have mobi-
lized in its civil networks 100,-
900 civilians who will be 100000
fighters" the announcer added,
and went on:
'In a moment you will hear q
statement by Gen. Raoul Salan,
commander -in-chief of the
Secret Army for Algeria and
Metropolitan France"
A voice which sounded like
that Of Gen. Salan came on to
confirm the mobilization order
and to aSsail President Charles
de Gaulle for his policies lead
ing to independence.
Despite q recent series of ar
rests Of Secret Army suspects,
the voice said, the Secret Army
is extremely powerful.
On several previous occa-
sions the Secret Army has in
terrupted the radio and tele-
vision stations here and at
Oran to broadcast similar pro-
grams. The regular transmits
sion facilities were repaired
quickly.

ticipate in the transitional gov
eminent Gen. de Gaulle plans
to set up to supervise a self
determination vote.
An editorial in the rebel
organ FL Moudjahid was con-
sidered a key to the prevail
ing rebel mood. It said:
Peace is possible in Algeria
II the other side of the Med
iterranean decides to change
words into acts and submit
statements to the trial of
negotiations"
This referred to Gen. de
Gaulle's statement September
S limiting at the possibility Of
French recognition of Algerian
sovereignty over the mineral
rich desert. The issue Of SOW
ereignty over the vast desert
was largely responsible for the
collapse Of earlier negotiations
at Evian and Lugrin.
There were strong indications
that the rebel regime, headed
since August % by Mr.. Ben
Khedda. would like to end the
seven-year-old conflict. The
rebels appear convinced that
French public opinion would
back any solution that would
end bloodshed.
Peace Road Blocked
But the way to peace in Al
geria is still blocked by such
other serious obstacles as the
organized opposition Of Alge-
ria's European settlers and the
basic conflict of interests be-
tween France and the rebel
regime.
France can ill-afford to
abandon its bases in Algeria
and evacuate the army from
the strategic area. So far there
have been no indications that
the rebels would tolerate the
French military on Algerian
soil once it becomes independ-
ent.
I'VE are on the veritable
crossroads where the issue is
not our future-because Alger-
Ia viii lbe independent come
what may-but the interests Of
the French people and Of Al
geria's Europeans" FL Mould
jahid said.

graduation from the Art Institute of Chicago. "Song
