These elections will be hotly
contested, and already seven par
ties have announced plans to run
candidates for office. The policy
of the new Algerian nation is in
doubt. Some believe it will follow
a moderate course like TuniSia,
closely allied to its former French
master. Others suspect the radical
wing of the Algerian nationalists
will seek closer union with the
Soviet or Chinese bloc. Others
believe that Algeria will try to
assume the leadership of the Arab
world, perhaps trying to rival
Egypt for that role.
In any event, today'S referen-
dun means an end of an era for
France. French forces fought
seven long years vainly trying to
contain the seeds of nationaliSm.
Mr.. de Gaulle assumed power in
1858, originally promising to con-
tinue this war. But he soon saw
that France was wasting its
strength in Algeria.
Once this judgment was made,
there was no turning back. Mr..
de Gaulle pressed for an end to
the war and restoration of
Frances leadership in European
affairs. Now that the Algerian
costs can be reduced, Mr.. de
Gaulle plans to go ahead with
his nuclear development-in the
face of American protests.

Statutes Of the State of Illinois
were involved to the extent that
its compulsory education law re-
quired attendance at schools
within specified ages and gave
to district boards of education
supervisory powers over the use
of public school buildings. What
was done and permitted by the
Champaign board, in agreement
with accredited representatives of
different religious faiths, was held
to violate the First Amendment,
extended by the Fourteenth
Amendment to apply to State
legislation. What the courts were
asked by the petitioner-appellant
to do was not an invalidating of
any State law but the granting
of writ of mandamuS telling
the local school board what it
should and should not do.

Interested members Of the Jew
ish, Roman Catholic and Protes-
tant faiths in the school district
had formed a voluntary associa-
ton called the Champaign Coun-
Gil on Religious Education" They
obtained permission from the
Board Of Education to offer
classes in religious instruction to
public school pupils. Glasses were
made up of pupils whose parents
had signed printed cards asking
that their children be permitted
to attend. Such classes met once
a week in the regular school rooms
of the school building. The council
employed the religious teachers at
no expense to the school au-
thorities, but the instructors were
subject to the approval and super
vision of the superintendent of
schools. The classes were taught
in separate groups by Protestant
teachers, Catholic priests and a
Jewish rabbi. Students who did
not choose to take the religious
instruction went to some other
room in the building to pursue
their secular studies. Students
present at any of the religious
classes were released for that time
from secular study. Accordingly,
reports of their presence or alb
Sence at religious classes were
made to secular teachers. No
coercion, discrimination or favorit-
ism for any one religious faith

was of any religious teaching at

The History

For centuries, Rwanda and
Burundi were two separate king
doms, ruled by a cattle-owning
aristocracy known as the Tutsi
(alSo called Watusi and BatusD ..
These Tutsi are slender, very tall
(6-feet-6 and up), and war-like.
They make up about Is per cent
of the population.
Their serfs for centuries were
the Hutu, who make up about
IS per cent of the population
combined, Ruanda- -Urundi has
million people, densely packed
in the disease free regions of the
country. In return for Tutsi
protection, the Hutu cared for
the cattle and pledged their lives
to the Tutsi.
The kingdom in Rwanda was
always more stratified than the
one in Burundi where inter-mar-
riage was more general. The Ger
mans and the Belgians accepted
the feudal system when they ar
rived, and dealt with the people
through the TutSi, who became
rich and more educated than the
Hutu.
Since the war, however. when
education at the lower levels be-
came more common, and the
ideals of democracy became more
widespread, the Hutu have been
seeking more voice in govern
ment. The Belgians, through their
administrative reforms, did away
Evening star., 1962-07-01

with most of the feudal abuses,
and this led to the formation of
organized Hutu political parties.
In 1859, when the Mwami
Cking) of the Tutsi died, a riot
broke out in Rwanda that led to
a week of blood-letting. About
200 people we're killed. and thou
sands of TutSi (the minority fled
the country. A free election held
afterwards brought the Hutu to
power.
In Burundi, there has been less
violence, and a popular Mwami
MwambutSa still rules, with the
support of the majority Of Hutu.
There is some question as to the
future of the Tutsi after the cur
rent king departs.
When it became clear in 1859
that the Congo was to become
independent in 1860. the Belgians
began to think seriously of free
ing Ruanda- -Urundi too. Ruanda-
Urundi cost several millions to
maintain, and brought in nothing
to Belgium.
The independence was has
tened by several United Nations
resolutions backed by the Afro
Asian bloc. The Afro-Asians, how
ever, tended to call for a united
Ruanda- -Urundi, rather than sep
arate states. After the 1859 revolt,
however, the Hutu in Rwanda
voted against a return of the
TutSi monarchy and for a "re-
public" The Tutsi in Burundi
feared a majority rule which
would dethrone them and were
able to retain the monarchy.
In 1861 after renewed fighting
most observers realized that a
united Ruanda-Urundi was i'm
possible. Indeed, recent U. N.
commission reported that neither
half wanted a union. Since there
were a few thousand Belgian Of
ficials and families in the ter
ritory, the question arose as to
Belgian troops-about 900 in
number.
The presence of white troops
had been at the root of the Congo
disorder and angers the Afro
Asian bloc, but Foreign Minister
Henri-Spaak said Belgium would
not be responsible for what hap
pens if the troops are forced out.
After week of debate, a COM
promise was reached by the West
ern powers and the Afro Asian
and Soviet blocs. Belgian troops
can remain until August /, and
even later if requested.

House Inquiry

While the Mcclellan hearings
grabbed the weeks headlines,
House Government Operations
subcommittee plodded on it's way
in an investigation of Estes lu-
crative grain storage operations.
In a single day of public hear
lngS, the House group headed by
h a r d = working Representative
Fountain, Democrat of North
Carolina, produced talk of pos
sible perjury for the Justice De-
partment'S consideration.
Frank Cain, a Dallas attorney
representing the Pacific Finance
Co., was witness. The company
was one of those left holding the
bag to the tune of $3.5 million
in the Estes admitted scheme of
issuing mortgages on non-
existent ammonia anhydrous fer
tilizing tanks.
Mr.. Cain testified about a meet
ing with Mr.. Estes and Maynard
G. Wheeler, president of CONNER
cial Solvents Corp. at the Estes
home in Pecos last March 18.
Mr.. Cain testified that there was
discussion at the time that if
Estes got too involved CONNER
cial Solvent would use him as a
conSultant in Switzerland.
The testimony of the Dallas at
torney and that of Mr.. Wheeler
in an earlier appearance before
the House Subcommittee were in
complete contradiction on this
and many other points. Mr.
Fountain said that somebody is
not telling the truth" and that
the Justice Department would be
asked to review the testimony for
possible perjury action.
