The President outlined his
views in a letter to Vice Presi-
dent johnson and Speaker Ray
burn.
His actions would be taken
under provisions of the Mu-
tual Security Act, and the
money would be in the form of
counterpart funds available for
expenditure in the United Arab
Republic and the Sudan.
Cost to Be SIS Million
The President pointed out
that the efforts to preserve the
many ancient temples will cost
between SIS and $100 million
and that the operation is of
such magnitude that the cost
cannot be borne by one or a
few nations.
The United States. one of
the newest of civilizations" the
President said. "has long had
a deep regard for the study of
past cultures, and a concern
for the preservation Of mans

Mr.. Hill said Negroes COM

for this situation, he said, is
that the company bars Negroes

Mr.. Rusk also said the cur

But he said the United States

the serious concern of the

the tempo of Communist Wet

South Wet Nam.
Mr.. McCloskey noted that
President Kennedy and Brit
aims Prime Minister Macmillan
had consulted at length on
Thursday over the Wet Nam
situation at the same time they
were discussing the future of
Laos.
Senator Mansfield, the SEN
ate Democratic leader, said all
of Southeast Asia may be
threatened if the Communists
are permitted to gather suffi-
cient strength to take over the
country.
"The danger in free Wet
Nam could be far more signifi-
cant and thereby more critical
to all of Southeast Asia and
to the United States than the
present difficulties in Laos"
Senator Mansfield said.
To Fight Terrorism
He said in an interview he
thought consideration should
be given to a request of Presi-
dent Ngo Dinh Diem for addi-
tional aid to enlarge his 10000
man army to fight growing ter

second Algerian hid under his
bed and escaped harm.
The gang then ran from room

of their victims was a 7-year-
old French girl, MARITIME Petit,
wounded as she lay in bed.
Also wounded were her father,
sitting beside the bed, and her
mother, who flung herself
across the child.
The three gunmen then
rushed to their waiting taxi,
knocking out a ward attendant
as they ran and beating a nurse
with gun butts. In the yard,
two policemen who tried to
stop them were shot in the feet.
More than a dozen Algerians
were later arrested at an Al
gerian hostel and an Algerian
taxi driver was picked up for
questioning. But there was no
indication that the identity of
the gunmen had been learned.
Series of Bombings
The attacks on the American
offices in AlgierS were the ,lat-
est in a series of bombings
blamed on diehard French COL
onists who violently oppose
President de Gaulle's policy of
self determination for Algeria
and any attempt at a reconcil-
iation with the rebels.
The extremists apparently
were angered that the Ameri-
can Ambassador to Tunisia,
Walter N. Walmsley, jr., held
private talks Monday in Tunis
with two FIN ministers. i
A plastic bomb of the type
usually used by rightist ex-
tremistS was placed at the main
door of the American Consulate.
The explosion blew down a
stone and brick wall, tore the
door from its hinges and
brought the ceiling of the main
corridor crashing down.
Arson Attempt Fails
The Consulate, on the third
floor of a modern office build
ing, was vacant at the time.
The only casualty was a French
policeman who slipped and
broke his shoulder while chas-
ing two men who fled from the
building.
The fire attack on the United
States Cultural Center, a regu-
lar target for extremist anti
American demonstrations, was
unsuccessful. An oil-soaked
bundle of rags was placed on
a wooden window covering and
set afire but the flames were
quickly put out.
Elsewhere in Algeria, six
bombs exploded yesterday.
-Four rocked the seaport city
of Bone within five minutes,
one exploded in a village near
Algiers and the sixth injured
five Algerians in a workers
quarter of Algiers. And an AL
gerian policeman was wounded
by a grenade in a suburb of
Algiers.
