De GouIle Determined
To Let Algeria Choose

PARIS, Oct. 3 (AP) Pres
ident Charles de Gaulle served
notice on his political critics
and enemies today that he is
determined to carry out self
determination for rebelling AL
geria, come what may.
In a nationwide radio-TV
speech last night, the vigorous
70-year -old general made it
clear he will not be sidetracked
by pickering politicians or
rightwing terrorists who want
to keep Algeria a part of
France.
Much of his speech repeated
the policy he has frequently
enunciated to resolve the nearly
| seven-year-old rebellion but
with emphasis on these two
points:
/. He will establish a pro-
visional executive body to run
Algerian affairs until a final
solution is reached through a
popular referendum. BY i'm
plication. he appealed to the
Algerian nationalist rebels to
take part in the provisional
regime and in preparations for
the vote.
2. He will establish a secu-
rity force (force publique) to
see that the work Of this future
executive will neither be ham,
pered nor destroyed.
Would Resume Powers
Should the nation again be
undermined by rightist subver-
sion or the operation of the
government threatened by po-
litical foes, Gen. de Gaulle said
he again will assume special
constitutional powers permit

New Syrian Regime
Adopts Neutrality
Taking Over
OF Business
Stopped

DAMASCUS, Syria, Oct. 8
(AP) Premier Mamoun Kuz-
bari today launched his revolu-
tionary regime on a neutral
course in foreign affairs. At
home he propounded a policy
of encouraging private owner
ship.
Thus he followed President
Nasser's foreign policy of nom
alignment in the cold war, while
putting brake on the United
Arab Republics naturalization
program that stirred unrest in
Syria.
The Syrian lawyer-politician
outlined his views last night in
his first news conference with
foreign correspondents since the
uprising that sundered the
rian-Egyptian merger under
the flag Of the JAR.
Pledging a return to parlia-
mentary democracy. he put a
four month time limit on the
period he and his cabinet
would serve, adding: II hope
the time will be less"
Agrarian Reforms Stand
Mr.. Kuzbari termed the four
month period the maximum he
would allow the new regime ito
prepare for elections and par
liamentary rule"
He said the cabinet will dis
cuss the possible return of firms
nationalized last summer by
decree of President Nasser. But
Mr.. Nasser's agrarian reform
program, the Premier said,
will remain as is"
The government, which he
termed the Syrian Arab Repub-
lie, will aim toward "a sound,
democratic socialist life" which
Mr.. Kuzhari said will encourage
private ownership, Industrial
ization and foreign investment.
AS one step toward a return
to democratic principles, Mr..
Kuzbari said the ruthless in
telligence agency once headed
by Col. Abdul Hamid Serial
had been closed and its agents
arrested. He said Col. Serial,
whose secret police once held
Syria in a tight grip, was placed
under house arrest the day of
the coup but slipped away.
Serial Seized Again
Revolutionary agents tracked
him to a secret hideaway Sun
day night and took him into
custody a second time ito put
an end to his subversive &C
tivities," an announcement
said.
Col. Serial resigned as a JAR
vice president and fled from
Cairo to Syria two days before
the revolt in an apparent break
with Mr.. Nassau. He long had
been considered Mr.. Nasser's
strongest advocate in Syria.
Mr.. Kuzbari said Syria now
looks on Egypt as having the
same status as any other Arab
country and discounted chances
of any type of federation with
that country.
The Syrian Arab Republic,
he said, has formally applied for
membership in the United Ma
tons and also in the Arab
League. Mr.. Nasser has a strong
voice in the league and is sure
to oppose Syria's application.
I'VE are not with the West
or the East" the Premier de-
clared. Syria is with every

Mr.. Kennedy how the allies are

quest for additional NATO

situation.

At his last news conference,
August 80, the Chief Executive
was only mildly optimistic about
the allies response to his re-
quest to increase the Western
defense systems military capa-
bility by 90 per cent.

nuclear applications for the
National Aeronautics and Space
Administration, made his re-
marks in a paper prepared for
delivery before the Interna-
tional Astronomical Congress.
He said NASA and the Atomic
Energy Commission have been
investigating flig h t-testing
methods in a program known
as RIFT, for "reactor in flight
test"
Some time after the begin
ming of 1862, an industrial con-
tractor will begin development
activities on a RIFT-vehicle to
meet the detectives of achieving
flight testing in the 1867
time period" Mr.. Finger said.
Plans call for launching the
nuclear rocket on a short
range ballistic flight from Cape
Canaveral. Fla. 1t would be
lifted by a Saturn-type first
stage.
Other Tests Due
After the initial RIFT flights,
Mr.. Finger said, other tests
will be made, involving:
/. Missions in which the We
hicle will attain sufficient speed
to leave the earth's gravita-
tional field and go into orbit
around the sun.
2. Flights in which the re-
actor is started up after it is
in orbit around the earth.
Mr.. Finger emphasized that
safety is a major concern in
the nuclear rocket program.
The plans, he said, "are be-
ing carefully examined to I'M
cover the possible sources of
hazards to launch crews and
the general populace."
Mr.. Finger said present
rocket engines, which produce
thrust from energy liberated in
a combustion process, are in
adequate for extensive manned
space missions.
Hope to Cut Weight
If only chemical propulsion
were used, he said, it would be
necessary to place a spacecraft
weighing 9 million pounds in
orbit around the earth in order
to conduct a manned flight to
Mars and return. The use of
nuclear rocket engines would
reduce the spacecraft weight
to about 100000 pounds.

2,44l Households
Affected; Saving
Put at $1,000
BY SAM EASTMAN
Star Staff Writer

The District Commissioners
acting under economy pres
sures from Congress, today de-
cided to cut welfare payments
to large fatherless families.
Beginning next month the
city will cut public assistance
allowances to a family with
four or more children. 1t will
save the city about 100000 a
year, according to Welfare
Director Gerard Shea.
Under the new program, a
dependent family which now
gets S2l5 per month-the pay
ment currently received by a
family with five children-will
be allowed 5000.
The welfare allowances are
for children whose father is abb
sent, dead or in some cases, in
capacitated.
Monthly payments to fam
lilies with three children or less
will remain the same.
2,441 Families Affected
Today's action by the Com
missioners, which was forecast
earlier this year during welfare
budget sessions before the SEN
ate Appropriations Subcommit-
tee on District Affairs, will
mean lower monthly welfare
checks for 2,441 families.
The order does not set a vel
fare payment ceiling per fam
lily, but establishes a $40 per
month minimum for each child.
The cuts will amount to 50
a month for a family with four
children and 81 more for each
additional child. Thus, the
monthly welfare cut for a
fatherless family of five chill
dren will be Sc; with six chill
dren $40. and so on.
The families affected by to-
days action are among those
eligible to receive Federal sur
plus food. Mr.. Shea told the
Commissioners the monthly
food allotment cannot be in

out that even before the

a hierarchy there so that 1t

AS a further proof OF the
Church's aspirations for non

Congo, Vatican Radio cited
a letter of the Congolese
Bishops dated last June % in
which they enjoined Catho-
lies to love their neighbors
as themselves regardless of
race or tribe.

Throughout the world, in places as far apart as

U BY WAY OF contrast-a contrast further
exposing their clamorous bereavement as something
carefully staged to serve the cause of Red totalitarian-
ism in the Congo and Africa as a whole-these very
same people have shed not a tear for Father Rene De
Vos. Nor have they voiced a single word either regret
ting or deploring the fate that has befallen him.
After all, who has ever heard of this servant of
God, and why should a good atheistic Marxist give him
a second thought? Well, for those who may have missed
the story in the rush of news, it should be reported that
Father De Vos has been murdered in the Congo, and
in a most vile way.
Wholly innocent of any conceivable connection
with the Lumumba Staying, he has been sacrificed to

This is the tragic balance

THUS, WHILE WALKING unoffendingly and de-
fenselessly along a street in a town called Bukavu, he
has been done to death with unspeakable savagery-
first beaten numerically, then his ears cut off, and
finally, in a kind of corporal work of mercy, beheaded.
Yet no voice has been raised behind the Iron Curtain
to protest against this atrocity, and no ope has organ
lied mobs to mourn the cruel passing Of the man.
IN HAT SENSE, unlike Patrice Lumumba, Father
De VoS, with news reports barely identifying him and
devoting only a few lines to his story, seems to be little
more than a cipher in the history of our times.
Yet, forgotten as he and his name may be, he is
in a peculiar way a key part of that history. And surely
there are some among his fellow men who must re-
member him, and pray for him, and weep silently for
him, and cry to heaven for an end to such evil as has
snuffed out his good life so atrociously.

This has undermined dis

were even reports that Gil
