Fauchot Elected
As Commissioner
To Free Algeria
6-Month Government
To Begin Work Soon
PARIS (UPI) The guns were
silent Monday in Algeria and
President Charles De Gaulle and
his government took the first de
cisions that would launch the war
ravaged territory on the path to
independent nationhood.
Soon after the cease-fire went in
to effect at noon ending 7Vz years
of war, the cabinet met at the
Elysee Palace and named Christian
Fouchet, 49, a top-ranking French
diplomat, long a follower of De
Gaulle to be France's high com
missioner in Algeria.
Six Months Term
Fouchet, now the French Am
basador to Denmark, will take over
shortly from French delegate Gen
eral Jean Mori. The high commis
sioner will represent the authority
of the French Republic in Algeria
during the six months before full
independence.
The government did not make
public immediately the names of
the 12-man Moslem-European pro
visional executive which will act
as an interium government in Al
geria during the same period.
However, they were decided on and
will be announced later.
Cabinet spokesman Louis Terre
noire announced that De Gaulle
will make another radio-television
broadcast to the nation next Mon
day night.
But before that, in a message to
extraordinary sessions of the two
houses of parliament Tuesday, De
Gaulle will announce the date of a
referendum in which Frenchmen
will be called on to approve the Al
gerian peace settlement. The date
generally mentioned is April 8.
Approve Decrees
A cabinet Communist saidthe
government also approved a ser
ies of decrees that will set the
wheels of Algerian independence in
motion later this year. They in
cluded: An amnesty decree for politi
cal prisoners.
Two decrees laying down con
ditions on which a self-determination
vote will be held in Algeria
in a few months.
A decree setting up a "court
of public order" in Algeria. As
soon as this is established, the spec
ial courts martial set up at Al
giers and Oran Monday to try dis
sident army groups will be dis
solved. Terrenoire said Fouchet will
take up his job as high commis
sioner "in the very near future."
The end of the fighting brought
little joy to France or to the more
than 1 million Europeans in Alger
ia. Algiers, Oran and the other big
cities were locked in a general
strike while tens of thousands of
French troops cordoned off the Eu
ropean and Moslem quarters.

Oil Slick Discovered
Chance Of Finding
Survivors Is Dim
CLARK AIR FORCE BASE, The
Philippines (UPI) A ship found
an oil slick in the Paficic Monday,
increasing speculation that all 107
persons aboard a chartered air
liner plunged to a fiery death when
the plane exploded in flight.
The oil slick, discovered by the
U. S. Navy supply ship Banner,
was about 18 miles from the spot
where a freighter reported seeing
a bright flash on the night the
Flying Tiger Airlines chartered
plane vanished.
"The chances of finding any sur
vivors now are about one in in
finity," said Maj. Gen. Theodore
R. Milton.
Milton, commander of the 13th
U. S. Air Force which has led the
far flung aerial hunt for the plane
said he expects the search to be
called off Tuesday.
Another search ship, the mine
sweeper Gallant, found an air
mattress not far from the oil slick.
But Flying Tiger officials said they
learned that the mattress did not
come from the Constellation which

"The administration has choked
off the direct loan program in a
phony maneuver to make this
year's budget look balanced," Ay
res told United Press Internation
al. He denounced what he. called
"the use of the Veterans Admin
istration for political purposes" and
added; "The veterans of the na
tion are the unfortunate victims of
the administration's fiscal manipu
lations. With housing starts down,
this hanky panky at the loan office
is also costing the construction in

Ayres said that Congress author

the request of the administration
last July 1.
According to the Ohioan "after
$200 million had been utilized the
program was reviewed . . . and in
January of 1962, they stopped bak

waiting list."
Ayres produced a letter from
P. N. Brownstein, chief benefit di
rector of the VA, which he said
bore out his charge.
The letter said that after pre
liminary review, the VA had de
cided to postpone additional mort

then "as to the extent and timing
of additional borrowings from the

Peron Followers
Sweep Elections;
Cabinet Resigns
Argentine Market
Panics As Reds Win
BUENOS AIRES (UPI) A sur
prise election victory by Commu
nist - backed followers of ousted
dictator Juan D. Peron rocked the
Argentine government Monday.
Banks and stock exchanges were
closed to head off a financial pan
ic. A top government source said all
cabinet members had submitted
their resignations to President
Artur Frondizi.
The armed forces demanded that
the government order federal in
tervention to nullify the election
victories of the Peronists in 10
provinces.
Interior Minister Alfrede Vitole
quit in protest against the armed
forces move to prevent the elect
ed Peronists from taking the of
fice. At midday he said Frondizi
still had not issued an order for
the federal government to inter
vene but might take some action
within a few hours.
Peron Hails W in
From his exile in Madrid Peron
hailed the election triumphs of his
followers and said his own future
will depend upon his supporters.
"I shall wait for their decision,"
he said.
Of 18 provinces where elections
were held for governors and con
gressmen, the Peronist - Commu
nist front won clear victories in
10, apparently including the ma
jor Buenos Aires and Cordoba
areas.
The election results indicated
Frondizi's Radical Intransigent
party had lost control of the fed
eral House of Deputies. However, it
continued in control of the federal
senate. No senate seats were up in
Sunday's elections.
Shocks Conservatives
The extent of the Peronist-Com-munist
triumph shocked Argen
tina's political conservatives. The
Peronist campaign was personaDy
directed from his exile head
quarters in Madrid, Spain by
Peron, . who was ousted by the
army in a revolutionary coup in
1955.
The mass resignation of the cab
inet came after Vitole quit. Vitole
not only had defended the Peron
ist participation in Sunday's elec
tions but also had advocated letting
them take their newly - won
seats and holding them until such
time as it became clear they
were establishing totalitarian-type
regimes.
Vitole's resignation indicated
that Frondizi would yield to the
army's demand the federal gov
ernment intervene the 10 provinc
es which the Peronists captured.
However, such a step must await
the formal end of the ballot count.
A formal certification of elec
tion results was a foregone con
clusion within the next 12 to 24
hours. It was expected Frondizi
then would decree government seiz
ure of provincial control in the
pro-Peronist areas and formally
summon the Congress to ratify his
executive decision.

Forces Move
By TV Dept.
The Department of Radio, Tele
vision and Motion Pictures vacated
its offices and classrooms in Swain
Hall yesterday because of con
struction work now underway on
the new addition and moved to
Phillips Hall.
Wrork is progressing steadily on
the addition to Swain, and recon
version work will be done on the
department's side of the building.
Earl Wynn, Chairman of the Dept.
of RTVMP, stated that "we were
told by the contractor that if we
wanted the biulding on time then
we would have to make it available
so that the reconversion work to
the present building could be carri
ed on at the same time the con
struction work is underway on the
new section."
The department's new location
in Rooms 122 and 124 of Phillips
Hall will be their new home through
the fall semester of 1962. When
the departmental offices are mov
ed out of the basement of Phillips
they will be moved back into the
completed addition which is cost
ing between $315,000 and $325,000.
Wynn said, "I hope we will be
able to move into the new build
ing between Christmas of this year
and February 1, 1963."
Wynn and the departmental sec
retary, Bonney Wilson, will occupy
offices in Room 124 of Phillips
Hall. Dr. John Clayton, Wes Wal
lace and John Ehle will have their
offices in Room 122. Dr. Robert
Hilliard, Ross . Scroggs and Mac
Preslar will have offices in the
basement of Swain Hall away from
the construction work which is
going on upstairs.
WUNC-FAI will maintain studios
in its present location. WUNC-TV

Conference Reels
Over Inspections
GENEVA (UPI) The 17-na-tion
disarmament conference al
most broke up Monday over So
viet refusal even to consider in
ternational inspection of its terri
tory. Only a hastily arranged meet
ing between the U. S. and Soviet
foreign ministers got it going a
gain. Secretary of State Dean Rusk
and Soviet Foreign Minister An
drei Gromyko held a surprise 30
minute conference at Gromyke's
villa at the Russian's request. They
agreed as permanent co-chairman
of the conference to call an inform
al off the record session Tuesday.
The conference appeared to have
got off to a good start when the
United States, Britain and the So
viet Union agreed to make a new
effort to end the nuclear test ban
stalemate. But conference sources
said the meeting was disrupted
when Gromyko said it was an
"insult to the Soviet people" to
suggest that Russia would violate
an uninspected nuclear test ban or
disarmament treaty.
Debate Becomes neated
After heated debate the confer
ence ended its afternoon session
without a decision to have another
informal meeting. The conference
has been meeting in informal ses
sion in bebef it was the most hope
ful way to achieve any success.
Swedish Foreign Minister Osten
Unden brought on the outburst, by
asking Gromyko: "What would you
do if explosions were registered
on Soviet territory? How could the
world be assured that they were
not nuclear explosions." "
Gromyko replied that if. a trea
ty were signed there "would be no
difficulty. It would be an insult
to the Soviet people to think their
government would violate, a treaty
it had signed, he said.
There was no progress after that
and the meeting ended.. .

issues."
The debate wil be held in Ger
rard Hall at 8 p.m. on Wednesday
March 21. Each candidate will be
allowed a ten-minute presentation
on each issue, followed by a two
minute cross-examination of each
other. A four-minute rebuttal-sum
mation period will end the discus
sion of that issue.
Valerian Zorin earlier accepted a
long-standing Western suggestion
for a three-nation subcommittee
within the general disarmament
conference to try to resolve the
test ban deadlock. He als0 sug
gested that France be invited since
it also is a nuclear power.
The British and American
spokesmen immediately welcomed
the Soviet move which was put
forth by Zorin at a news confer
ence. Then came the surprise dis
closure of the Rusk-Gromyko talks.
The two foreign ministers had
conferred several times on Berlin,
Germany, disarmament and other
cold war problems but there had
been no meetings since Tuesday
and it was believed Gromyko had
been forced to ask Moscow for
further instructions. So far he has
been unyielding on everything.
Later, Rusk told the UPI that
"we talked about tomorrow's meet
ing and very briefly about Berlin
and nuclear testing."
McNamara Asks Hike
In Housing Allowance
WASHINGTON (UPI) Defense
Secretary Robert S. McNamara
called on Congress Monday to
boost servicemen's housing allow

said it was "disgraceful" that
there had been no . increase for

A housing allowance is a sum
paid to a serviceman in addition
to his basic pay.
McNamara told a news confer

erage increase of lS'a per cent in
allowances for servicemen.
The proposal would cost $150

Mrs, Kennedy
Takes A Ride
On Elephant
JAIPUR, India (UPI) Mrs.
Jacqueline Kennedy took a ride
on a lurching red, white and yel
low painted elephant Monday and
got off after 10 minutes, patting
the pachydrm and saying,
"goodbye, thank you."
Relaxing during a two-day "hol
iday" in the middle of her India
Pakistan tour, Jackie also met the
26-member U.S. Peace Corps
group in India and admired the
beard and turban of a Brooklyn
youth in Punjabi attire.
The First Lady was hailed by a
crowd estimated at half a million
on arrival in the "pink city" of
Jaipur for a stay at the palace of
the maharaja and his Maharani,
at 42 still one of the most beauti
ful women in India.
They were hosts last year to
Queen Elizabeth II. It was an

would lunch with the Queen
March 23 in London on her way
back to America.
Ride Prompts Smile
The 35-year-old female elephant
chosen for Jackie was the same
one Elizabeth rode. Seated in a
gold and silver howdah, strapped
to the elephant's back and re
sembling a small roller coaster
car, Mrs. Kennedy smiled bravely
as she swayed along beside her
sister, the Princess Lee Radziwill.
White wooden tusks were fitted
so that the elephant looked like
a male. Her ears streamed silk
banners and on either side hung
large silver bells which the ma
hout driver, perched on the ani
mal's neck, rung on the trip
around the courtyard.
In the rear seat of the howdah
sat the home minister cf Rajas
than state, Mathra das Mathur,
giving advice and encouragement.
In the afternoon, Mrs. Kennedy
watched the maharaja and his
two sons go down to an upset de
feat in a pole match.
Accompanied by Maharani
Mrs. Kennedy, wearing a bril
liant turquoise shantung sheath,
pearl choker, white gloves and a
white bag, sat beneath a tan sha
