last night by Montgomery

Algerian Toll Soors
In Terrorist FIureup
Mobilization
OF Settlers
Is Asked

ALGIERS, Jan. 4 (AP). -.
Fresh blood flowed today in
the battle of terrorist groups
over the issue of whether AL
geria is to remain French. The
toll of clashes between Mos
lens and Europeans scared to
at least SO dead and more than
140 wounded SO far this year.
Two MoSlems and a Euro
pean were killed and eight
Moslems were wounded in
Oran. In Algiers, three Mos
lens and a European were in
jured.
The underground French
rightist Secret Army Organiza-
ton called last night for a
general mobilization of Euro
pean settlers for a last-ditch
fight to keep the North African
territory under Frances flag.
Handbills calling on the set
tiers to prepare to fight were
posted by the Secret Army as
the belief spread that the way
was at last open for an agree
ment between the De Gaulle
government and the Algerian
rebels to end the 7-year-
old war in Algeria. The hand
bills gave no further instruc-
tions but a pirate radio broad

dicted victory for the Secret
Army in 1862 and said cryp-
tically, THE cigarettes are lit"
Attacks Indiscriminate
Terrorism surged up in most
major Algerian cities. The at
tackS were indiscriminate and
followed no particular pattern.
It was believed the Moslem ma
tionalists were making a show
of strength to influence the
secret talks under way for sew
eral weeks between the French
and the nationalists. And the
European extremists appeared
trying to foster the idea that
France could not enforce an
independence agreemen n

termined resistance.
Most of the attacks were by
gun, knife or grenade. Often
one by one side brought retail
alton from the other.
Three persons were killed
and 80 wounded by grenades
thrown intA a crowd of Mos
lens leaving a movie house in
Constantine last night. Among
the wounded were three police
men assigned to guard an Off
cial reception being held near
by.
In the western port of Oran
bands of youths savagely
stabbed or beat to death 6
MoSlems in separate attacks
after word spread that a preg-

wounded by a Moslem terrorist.
The woman later died.

Sukarno Bars
New Guinea
Compromise
Nothing Can Stop
Tukeover From
Dutch, He Says

MAKASSAR, Celebes, Indo-
nesia, Jan. 4 (AP).-"West New
Guinea will be included in Indo-
nesian territory this year and
no fleet, no army, no force will
stop u.s." President Sukarno
declared today.
Speaking to a huge throng
on this IndoneSian island, he
firmly rejected Dutch proposals
for settlement of the New
Guinea dispute.
Mr.. Sukarno alerted his
armed forces more than two
weeks ago to be ready to seize
the disputed half of New Guinea
but has not yet ordered a D.
day. The country has stepped
up its arms buildup off the
shores of West New Guinea,
however.
- Veterans Being Rearmed
The army announced that
10000 veterans of independence
fighting against the Dutch are
being rearlned on Amboina and
other islands of the Molucca
chain some $50 miles off the
western tip of New Guinea.
The announcement closely
followed a report from a high
government source that Indo-
nesia is willing to promise West
New Guinea eventual self-de-
termination if the Dutch agree
to let Jakarta take over the
territory's administration in
the meantime.
Col. Busjiri, military COM
mander of the Molucca area,
declared that the issuance of
arms to the veterans and their
assignment into combat units
are preliminary steps to "the
march forward to stop the
Dutch-created Papuan state
from operating and to hoist
Indonesia's red and white flag
in the territory"
Troops Expecting Order
Col. Busjiri told newsmen
that his troops "are impatiently
expecting the order for the
initial storming of Dutch posi-
tions on West Irian (West New
Guinea) proper. This is a logi-
cal consequence of the national
revolution"
President Sukarno ordered ma
tional mobilization last month
and said he would invade West
New Guinea unless the Dutch
handed it over. He gave no
indication of an invasion date.
But the high government
source reported last night that
Indonesia was prepared to drop
it's demand for immediate SOW
ereignty over the primitive area
and to offer the 100000 Papuan
tribesmen there the right of
eventual self determination.
He said the Netherlands in
turn would have to give
Indonesia administration of the
territory. He called the pro-
posal "the most liberal stand"
his government could take.
The source said that the In
donesian shift resulted from
pressure from the United States
and Australia. Australia ad-
ministers the eastern half of
the island, the worlds second
largest.
The informant noted that
the Netherlands has long con-
trolled the 10000 square mile
territory of jungles and noun

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
Oct. 24.-Everybody here, like
everybody else, is just waiting
| for the other shoe to drop.
They are speaking in the Sc
curity Council Of the morality
and legality Of the United
States blockade against Cuba,
What they are thinking about
is the moment when the first
Soviet ship bearing arms
meets the first United States
ship bound to stop 1t.
It is perhaps an indication OF
the nervousness that prevails
that last night at a neutrals'
meeting, which was supposed to
be secret, someone pressed the
wrong button so that the entire
proceedings could be heard over
the excellent amplifying system
in the glass house.
The neutrals, consisting of
about As nations, many OF
whom attended the Belgrade
convocation of the non-aligned,
met for three and a half hours
and decided they needed more
time to frame a resolution
which would enable the two
menacing giants to back down
without losing face.
AS a first step. they proposed
to go to Acting Secretary Gen
eral U. Thant and ask him to
plead with President Kennedy
to stop the blockade. Later,
they decided to push for an
appeal to all to avoid any
provocative acts.
Adlai Stevenson. the United
States Ambassador to the U. N,
who led off the deliberations
in the Security Council, re-
gretted that people here at the
U. N. seem to believe that the
cold war is a private struggle
between two great super
powers"
1T is not a private struggle;
it is a world civil war;" he said
to the crowded blue and gold
chamber.

Rules Out Comparison
Mr.. Stevenson devoted much

Russia has done in establishing
a base in Cuba is comparable
to what the United States has
done around the periphery Of

and on this point, there was a
major difference over whether
Cuba should sit at the table.
The United States objects to
