Today's article is authored by an Algerian re fugee study ng here. By RAC1IID BENOUAMEUR Algeria is situated in the north ern part of Africa, between Tu nisia and Morocco. Since 1954 it has been the battlefield of a gen eral uprising which is still going on and has become a full-scale war. According to French statistics, between Jan. 1 and Aug. I of thus year more than 23.000 Alger ian freedom fighters have been killed. The French forces sta tioned in Algeria number 800.000 soldiers and policemen, two thirds of the French air force and one-half of the French army. The Algerian civilian popula tion has been Uic main victim of this colonial war. During the past lour and a half years ap proximately ftOO.ooo civilians have leen killed or .seriously wound ed as a result of French bom bardments and reprisals; 100, 000 are imprisoned or held in concentration camps; more than 300,000 are refugees in Morocco cd by Dr. Aucrbach in 1956 have not since been accepted by many other pathologists do ing the same type of work and frequently studying many marc lungs." Auerbach's report was made at the annual clinical session of the American Medical Assn. meeting here. He said lung cancer and con ditions which lead to it "de pend almost completely on the number of cigarettes smoked." Tests were made on nearly 20,000 pieces of lung tissue from 402 men who died. All the 63 who died of lung and music, etc. The summer school fees, in ' eluding room, board and tuition range between $3.43 and $254. However, a few partial and full scholarships will le offered. The two Au:rian summer schools provide tlf opportunity to attend the Salzburg music festi val. Emphasis is placed on Ger man language study, but there will be certain courses taught in Davis Young is dead : and Tunisia, and more than l, 000.000 Algerians have been for cibly "resettled" by the French army in heavily guarded cen ters where they are now in ini nunent danger of death from famine. Falling within the scope of the general movement of emancipation now sweeping Afri ca and Asia, Algeria presents one of the most tragic examples of the heavy cost of freedom. The methods used by France in the conduct of this war of re conquest have been denounced by leaders throughout the world, as well as by many eminent French men who have been shocked by the irrefutable evidence of the use of torture and concentra tion camps even in France by the French army. Therefore, it should occasion no surprise if the Algerian prob lem has focused the attention of the international community. But the French government continues its refusal to recognize the principles laid down in the Geneva conventions on treatment of prisoners of war as applicable to the Algerian people.

France refused to cooperate with the world forum, arguing that.it was an "internal problem." so that the United Nations General Assembly has discussed the prob lem in four successive sessions in vain. The responsibility of the UN' members is much more .seriously involved. After a more than five year struggle, the western coun tries have not yet condemned colonialism in Algeria The following is from a North African and has been reproduced by John Phillips, an American citizen born in Algeria: "We denounced the Russian terror in Hungary, like you West erners. But i notice you West erners do not denounce French oppression in Algeria which is .Hist as bad. Is it because tryran ny is oidy denounced when it is Communist and forgiven when practiced by the West? I hope this is not the case.
