Cold War;:
Marking Time

The Geneva talks on disarm-
ament and a nuclear test ban
apparently made no progress
last week. The Soviet Union
made a new proposal on Berlin
that was being studied by the
West.
President Kennedy is we'll
known for his pragmatic ap-
proach. When confronted with a
problem, he invariably replies,
Well make a judgment on that"
meaning he and his advisers will
consider every possible alterna-
tive, and then make their decision.
Last week, however, the CHEZ
executive showed signs of also
being an optimiSt. At his Wednes-
day press conference, he refused
to acknowledge that the Geneva
talks have reached any stalemate.
Il am not prepared to abandon
it (the TALKS and it would be
a mistake for us to feel that there
the prospects are finished" he
said.

THE NATIONAL SCENE
Measured Progress
On Congress- Part

The Senate last week was
mired in pOll-tax 'filibuster'
while the House voted to settle
the BIO dispute and prepared
to receive the Kennedy tax
incentive bill for floor debate.
= In his dealings with Congress,
President Kennedy, a member of
the legislative branch for IA years,
has carefully Stunned the use of
direct force and pressure. He has
not tried to dictate or dominate.
Rather, he has used personal
perusasion and indirect pressure
for pushing his legislative pro-
gram. His lieutenants on Capitol
Hill, Senate Majority Leader
Mansfield and Speader McCor-
mack, have done the same.
In large measure, of course,
the facts of political life have
dictated the Kennedy approach.
He himself alluded to this at his
news conference on Wednesday
when he was asked to evaluate
the quality of support his domestic
program was getting.

Referendum Next

The ceaSe-fire apparently is
what Mr.. de Gaulle wanted. The
French nation next month will
vote it's approval of the docu-
ment, and all that remains is for
the Algerians to hold their refer
endum. They are expected to ap-
prove ties to France, and the AL
gerian state is expected to follow
a neutral non-Communist course.
1t is likely that the GAS will
increase it's violence in coming
weeks and months in an eff
fort to prevent the referendum
from taking place. Indications are
that the army once the AL
gerian hope-is now ready to act
against the GAS.
Actually, the Europeans - about
half French, the res. Spanish and
Italian are in a miserable polit-
ical position. rs long as France
believed Algeria should be French
they had considerable moral
weight behind them. Now, they
are considered beyond contempt

citizens who have helped almost

French government headquarters
in Algiers on May 10 and seized
control Of the city. Gen. Jacques
Massu, the paratroop leader, was
in charge of the committee of
public safety.
Gen. Raoul Salan, the COM
mander-in-chief in Algeria. lent
his support to the movement. And
waiting in the wings, ready to
assume the leadership of the ma
ton, was Charles de Gaulle.
Afraid of civil war, the French
government and National Assem-
bly, voted Gen. de Gaulle full
powers, and he assumed the pre-
miership on June l, 1858. He be-
came President in 1859.
His supporters believed that he
would support Algerian integra-
tion-that Algeria would be con-
sidered part of France with fuller
equality than it had previously.
The Algerian nationalistS, how
we're, demanded independence, but
indicated that they would be will
ing to retain certain ties with
France.
Mr.. de Gaulle began - with
semi dictatorial powers - to dis
engage himself from his support
ers. He purged the army of diSSi-
dent elements. He disbanded the
glorious Foreign Legion, and he
announced his goal of self-deter-
mination for Algeria.
To do this, he had to put down
two attempted coups, the last in
April, 1861. This so-called gen
erals revolt" was the last bid by
the Algerian Europeans to prevent
the inevitable.

Kennedy Confident

Declaring his complete con-
fidence" in administration leaders
in Congress Gin face of the record
of few approved major bills), the
President said:
80 I must say that they've
been doing the best they can.
You have to remember that this
House of Representatives is some
what evenly balanced"
Mr.. Kennedy was referring, OBJ
viously, to the Republican,
Southern Democratic conservative
coalition, which often is able to
bat down or dilute welfare legis-
lation proposed by the Democratic
majority.
It is this heavy conservative
bent in the House which has put
some of the Presidents high
priority bills in jeopardy.

The Tax Bill

The other good news for the
President, which prompted a per-
sonal letter from Mr.. Kennedy to
Chairman Wilbur Mills, was the
passage of the administration
new tax-incentive bill by the
House Ways and Means Commit
tee and it's prompt clearance for
floor action by the Rules Com
mittee.
i Last-minute changes in the bill
restored about $625 million in rev.
enues, assuring, according to the
Treasury Department, that the
measure would not result in a
net loss next year and would, in
later years, produce substantial
additional income.
The principal feature of the bill
would grant businesses investment
credits of up to 7 per cent on taxes
for purchases of modern equip
ment and machinery. Other i'm
portant features are the withhold
ing tax on dividends and interest
and an increase in taxes on in
come earned abroad by American
companies.

language from a procurement
authorization measure which
would have directed" the Secre-
tary Of the Air Force to spend
1920 million more on the con-
troversial airplane than Mr.. Ken
nedy thought desirable. In return,
the President promised that
another review would be made of
the BIOS potential and feast
bility and that if it were in the
interest of the United States he
would spend additional sums on
it in the next fiscal year.
Administration sources reported
that Mr.. Kennedy, anxious to
head off a fight on the House
floor and bolstered with pledges
of support from members Of the
House Appropriations Committee,
who took a rather dim view of
Mr.. WILSON'S aggressiveness, in
vited the latter to the White
House for a discussion. He took
Mr.. VinSon for stroll in the
rose garden and the agreement
followed.

American Genius

And so the big fight, scheduled
for the House floor on Wednesday
never took place. Observers were
quick to point out that the COM
promise showed the genius of the
American system and character
which permits a friendly aGree-
ment when two equals, the legis-
lative and executive branches, are
heading for a direct clash.
AS Mr.. Kennedy, who declined
to claim a victory, told his news
conference:
IT think that if you took the
powers of the executive and the
powers of Congress and pushed
each to its possible con-
clusion you would have a
somewhat chaotic situation {.
In a country where the Constitu-
ton gives divided responsibilities
we have to attempt to adjust the
strong feelings on both sides"

3. Europeans will have a pro-
portionate representation in any
future Algerian assembly.
4. Algiers and Oran-the main
European cities-Will have city
councils in which a European must
be either chairman or vice-chair-
man for the next five years.
5. A referendum will be held
later this spring or summer among
Algerian citizens in which they
will vote on whether they want to
remain part of metropolitan
France, to have independence with
no links to France, or in
dependence with French associa-
ton.
6. Pending the referendum, and
establishment of an Algerian gov
eminent, Algeria remains under
French sovereignty. A French
High Commissioner will rule with
the help of the French Army. A
IL man provisional executive,
representing the different Algerian
parties, will administer the country
and aid the high commissioner
in preparing for the referendum.
7. All French economic and
military rights in the Sahara will
remain. All future oil discoveries
will be shared $3.50.
8. France will retain her naval
air base at Mers-el-Kebir for is
years, subject to renewal. The
French army may have necessary
bases in Algeria, and rights to
have troops in Algeria for three
years.
9. If Algeria chooses to vote
independence (as is likely it will
exercise full and complete SOW
ereignty.

The Ceose-Fire

The cease-fire announced last
week was the result of the talks.
These are the pact's main points:
/. All French citizens in Algeria
can remain French. Any citizen
can leave Algeria with all his
property if he desires.
2. There will be full political,
religious, cultural and language
guarantees in Algeria. French will
be the official language.

Labor Appeal

He made the once independent
General Confederation of Labor
his nucleus, and from it he con-
structed a powerful political ma
chine. When he wanted a show
of strength he called out the
workers for general strikes.
To keep their loyalty, Peron
placed labor leaders in top gov
ernmental positions. He constant
ly raised workers wages and built
them lavish living quarters. His
wife, Eva Peron, a former actress,
was a favorite of the workers, and
her gifts to sick children were
widely publicized (she died in
1882.
Peron carefully built up the
army with his supporters but was
never very popular with the navy
or with the Catholic Church. He
was strong nationalist and took
advantage of traditional Latin
American anti Yanquis feeling.
The United States had accused
him of pro-Nazi Sympathies in
1945, and this hardened his re-
sentiment.
His end as President came in
1855 when he started a feud with
the Church, This led to street
riots and an eventual threat by
the navy to barrage BuenoS Aires.
He left the country, and in the
last seven years has Travelled
widely and now lives in Spain. He
has kept in contact with his for
mer supporters.
The military took over Argen-
tina in 1855 and ruled it for three
years, finally holding elections in
1858. The winner in that year
was Arturo Frondizi, a liberal but
moderate politician. When he took
over, the economy was in a miser-
able state. He called for reduc-
tion in the bullying governmental
bureaucracy and a general wage
freeze.

aimed at putting Argentina on its

Some of the leaders of that re-

The French nation in refer

Back to 1854

In 1854, France was not ready
to give Algeria it's independence.
The world was not accustomed to
Africans ruling themselves, and
moreover, France had just lost its
valuable Indo- China colony after
a seven-year war. The country's
honor was at stake.
The army felt that it could
crush the Algerians-as they had
failed to defeat the Wet Namese-
and the nation supported this
view for the next three years. It
became apparent by 1858, how
ever, that force alone would not
suffice.
Most of Frances intellectuals-
one was Jean Paul Sartre-criti-
cized the government and the
army for it's brutality in Algeria.
But whenever a move was made
to reach a detente in Algeria, the
Europeans there-and their sup
porters in the Assembly-blocked
the move.
AS the war dragged on, more
than 100000 Frenchmen were
sent to Algeria to fight a rebel
army estimated at about 10000
at it's peak. When Tunisia and
Morocco received their independ-
ence in 1856, the rebels gained
Sanctuaries which made the
French army's job much more
difficult.
The French army tried various
methods of winning the war: bru-
tai repression; "pacification" of
villages by moving whole popula-
tions; and indignation" of the
population by intensive educa-
tional goodwill programs aimed
at doing in a few years what
France had failed to do in past
decades.

France and the Algerian
Provisional Government agreed
on a cease-fire last Sunday,
preparatory to the creation of
an independent Algerian state.
The European Secret Army Or
ganizatiOn refused to recognize
the accord and trouble con-
tinued.
Early Monday morning, French
soldiers in Algeria began plaster
ing house walls with posters show
ing European boy with his arms
around an Algerian girl. The
posters read:
For our Children, Peace in
Algeria"
Later that day, European resi-
dents were seen angrily tearing
down the posters. And by Wednes-
day, the European Secret Army
Organization (OAS) had resumed
its indiscriminate attacks on Mos
lens and French soldiers alike.
The fighting will continue for
weeks and perhaps months to
come, but Frenchmen-and indeed
most of the world-felt relief last
week that the seven-year-old
French-Algerian War was just
about over.
