De Gaulle Fires
I
Commander Of
Algiers Forces
PARIS, UR — President Charles,
De Gaulle had a face-to-face
meeting Saturday with paratroop
General Jacques Massu, the man
he fired Friday night as com
mander of the Algiers area. Mas
su’s backers in Algiers reacted
with a call for a general strike.
• As De Gaulle and the \hero of
European settlers in Algeria
talked, French combat troops
and police armed with tommy
guns patrolled the streets of Al
giers on the alert for serious
trouble. Algiers’ merchants hur
riedly shuttered their shop fronts.
They said the strike order was
issued by armed territorial guards,
the militia of Algiers citizens.
Presumably De Gaulle and
Massu discussed the bereted gen
eral’s next assignment, which is
expected to send him far from
rebellious Algeria.
The hawk-noed Massu, sport
ing his combat beret, left De
Gaulle’s office after a 45-minute
session. He declined to make a
statement.
Massu was dismissed after a
newspaper interview — which he
later denied — in which he was
quoted as criticizing the leader
ship of De Gaulle and the presi
dent’s Algerian policies.
Massu was recalled to Paris
Tuesday by the French President
and allowed to cool his heels.
European settlers fear that the
De Gaulle policy might result in
loss of French control of Algeria.
The decision to fire Massu was
preceded by a De Gaulle declara
tion that he would remove any
obstacles to his goal of permit
ting Algeria to decide its own
future.

Herter Talks Over!
Castro Crisis
With President
WASHINGTON, UR — President
Eisenhower conferred with Sec
retary qf State Christian Herter
Saturday on the developing crisis
in U. S.-Cuban relations.
Herter was reported to have a
number of issues to discuss with
the President during his early
morning call at the White House.
It was understood the Cuban sit
uation topped the list.
Herter and his aides apparently
have been uncertain what to do
about what they consider insult
ing and erratic behavior by Cuban
Prime Minister Fidel Castro, who
has combined a campaign of seiz
ure of U. S.-owned plantations
with a propaganda drive against
the United States and its leaders.
At a Congressional committee
Thursday Herter said that attacks
made by Castro on the United
States were “insulting.” He an
nounced that he had summoned
Ambassador Philip Bonsai home
for consultation. There is specu
lation that Bonsai will delay his
return to Cuba indefinitely.

nal November 10.
Police Lt. Laurence Baker said
four pickets and one Oregonian
employe were arrested, and
eharged with assault and battery
and disorderly conduct.
Baker said at least two police
men were hit as the fistfights
flared. He said he knew of no
serious injuries.
There were from 500 to 600
pickets on the sidewalks in the
early-morning rain, when the dis
turbances began, Baker said. Nor
mally, there are no more than 15
to 30 pickets at the newspaper.
A big window in a hotel across
the street from the newspaper
was broken.

U. S. Ambassador
Bonsai Quits Cuba
HAVANA, UP) —- U. S. Ambas
sador Philip W. Bonsai left by
plane Saturday to report to Wash
ington on Prime Minister Fidel
Castro’s rising anti-U. S. cam
paign.
There was no demonstration at
the airport, as was the case when
Spanish Ambassador Juan Pable
de Lojendio, ordered out of Cuba
by Catro, left the day previously. .
He reached Madrid declining to
comment on the controversy.
New attacks on the United
States appeared in the pro-govern
ment press as Bonsai and his wife
boarded a plane for New York.
“The Yankees continue sending
us notes and recalling Mr. Bonsai
for consultations, but all this is
not causing the slightest preoccu
pation in Cuba.”
There was a feeling in some
American circles here that Castro
wants to wreck traditional Cuban
U. S. friendship and eventually
oust the United States from its
naval base at Guantanamo in east
ern Cuba.

from Seattle on the Alaska Steamship Company

Safeway in the Northern Light Shopping
Center of Anchorage's Spenard Addition. At
Seward the vans will be transferred to the
Alaska Railroad for the overland hault to

favorably with any supermarket in the lower

Seattle division retail operations manager.
