North Africans in France Are Serious Social Problems Paris (U.R) The death of even Algerians from police gun fire during Bastille Day rioting focussed new attention on the serious social problem of 300,000 North Africans living in sub-marginal conditions in France. Most of them are French citi zens since Algeria was made part of the French homeland after World War Two. They come to the capital looking for work, and a better life. Instead, most of them find themselves stranded, broke, un employed, living in the most squalid conditions in France's largest cities. Because of their French citizenship there are no special services set up to pro tect and guide them in what re mains for them a basically fore ign land, and no means of con trolling their entry or move ment. No Exact Figure There is no exact figure on the number of Algerians in France, but most authorities agree that the 300,000 figure furnished by the Family Aid Office is a reli able estimate. Almost all are adult males. The Ministry of Labor lists only 137.600 Algerians as gain fully employed. The rest are largely reduced to begging, ped dling merchandise of dubious quality on the streets, or living by illegal means. Employers say those who have jobs are good workmen, get along well with their fellows, are punctual and well disciplined but markedly slower than native born Frenchmen. Only one in a 1,000 rises to the level of fore man. Live In Strange World The Arabs are clannish, live together in groups according to their tribe or home town in Af rica, and devotedly faithful to helping each other in the strange Oregonan Killed In Wyoming Accident Daniel Junction, Wyo. 4U.R) Jesse Paul Wordel of Sutherlin, Ore., was killed yesterday, when his car in which he was riding rolled over about six miles north cif here, police reported. 53 Dead line on Classified Ads: SrSO m. for following day. 10 am Mon- noon aaiuraay tor Auadajr Jn and frequently hostile world that surrounds them. With less than one in two working, and nearly all low paid, sharing with less fortunate tribesmen means pack ing several persons in a single room lacking even elementary necessities in the worst quarters of the city. Crime runs in normal propor tion to the population, police say. Knifing and violence are un usually high, but swindling is almost non-existent. With living conditions so low and a social welfare program completely lacking, the Alger ian colony has been a ripe field for Communist missionary work. The Reds have moved in where they found conditions worse and organized Algerians into "shock troops" that have little to lose in supporting the Communist prop aganda line. The Communists, of course, have everything to gain in stir ring up a natural discontent and in setting up situations in which the Algerians can become public martyrs. Police charge that the Bastille Day rioting at Place de la Nation had all the earmarks of being well-organized in advance.
