Main Phone 2-4922 OPEN WEDNESDAY NITE a First Step Taken To Grant Home Rule in Morocco Paris (U.R) The French gov ernment, moving boldly to bring peace to its violence-torn North African empire, outlawed the Communist party in Algeria to day, raided its various headquar ters and took the' first steps to ward granting home rule to Morocco. In Tunisia, where France al ready has granted home rule, Premier Tahar Ben Ammar re signed so the country could form its own government to include Nationalist elements that battled the French for years in a series of bloody uprisings. . . . The government of Premier Edgar Faure instructed its resi dent general in Morocco to open immediate negotiations with Sultan Sidi Mohammed Ben Moulay Arafa to persuade him to retire while guaranteeing the Sultan's "interests and dignity." Outlaw Communists In Algeria, rocked today by a "fairly strong" earthquake, the government announced it was outlawing-the Communist party for its support of the anti-French uprising that killed some 1500 Frenchmen and Arabs last Aug. 20. Another 700 or more died in Morocco at the same time. Outlawing of the Communist party and "all organizations and associations directly attached to it" came as police all over Al geria launched heavy raids against Red headquarters and fellow travelling organizations to learn their connection with the uprisings. The nationwide raids started last night on orders of Governor General Jacques Soustelle and officials said today a- number of important documents had been seized. Soustelle ordered the raids following an inflamma tory appeal by Algerian Commu nists to oppose French rule. Soldiers Ambushed The action came as 40 mem bers of the rebel "National Lib eration Army" in Algeria am bushed a Foreign Legion truck convoy between Philippeville and Tamalous, killing one French soldier and wounding four oth ers in a machinegun attack. Premier Faure's move to ease out the Sultan of Morocco came in an order to Resident General Pierre Boyer de la Tour to begin talks with the Sultan, key figure in Faure's solution of the Mo roccan crisis. De la Tour has talked with the sultan in the past but Arafa has clung to his Cherifien throne de spite the strong Trench pressure. Persistent reports from the Moroccan capital of Rabat said the aged sultan had decided to "bow to the will of Allah" and step down from the throne.: His replacement by a three-man re gency council is necessary to the Faure plan. But the sultan's palace at Rabat' added a note of mystery when it issued a communique saying the aged monarch had "solemnly affirmed . his will to remain on the throne so long as Allah does not decide otherwise." Portland Firm Faces False Claim Charge Spokane (U.R) A federal grand jury yesterday indicted the Cisco Construction of Port land on charges of filing a false claim' against the government. The 16-count indictment con cerned claims totaling more than $32,000 filed by the firm in con nection with a stop- work order at the Hanford atomic works. According to the indictment, the firm' had a contract to do construction work at the Han ford atomic plant and was order ed to stop work during a labor dispute Sept. 8, 1954. After the dispute was settled, the work was completed and Cisco filed claims for $21,399 and $11,872 for standby equipment and labor during the stoppage. The indictment charges that the claims were fraudulent and that an affidavit filed in con nection with him was false. Loitering Lands Pair in Jail Hollywood (U.R) . Loiter ing near the homes of movi stars Ann Blyth and Fred Astaire and former silent screen star Mary Pickford landed two men in jail today. Gaston Nichols, 18, a Canadi an, was arrested yesterday on vagrancy charges by Beverly Hills police who said they found him loitering on the Fief air es tate of Miss Pickford and her husband, Buddy Rogers. He also had been on the adjoining grounds of the home of Astaire, 'officers said. Police turned the youth over to immigration offi cials. Suspicion of Robbery Frank G. Harcher, 41, who said he recently came here from Cleveland, O., was arrested in front of Miss Blyth's Toluca Lake home. He was booked on suspicion of robbery after de tectives found two shotguns, a rifle, a pistol, two knives and a blackjack in his car parked near the actress' home. Harcher said he had "corresponded' with the actress. She told police-she never had written him, although he might have sent her fan let ters. . Dr. James V. McNulty, hus band of Miss Blyth, called police after he said he noticed Harcher parked for a long time in front of the home. NOISY PROWLER Pasadena, Calif. (U.R) Police said the burglar who fled the home of Mrs. Zora Harpin, 41, when she discovered his . noc turnal prowlings. yesterday must have been a noisy worker. He woke Mrs. Harpin although she sleeps with a sleep shade over REMEMBER HEAT WAVE . Los Angeles-(U.R The city's worst heat wave in history end ed Friday but city councilmen haven't forgotten it.

U.R) Keron Walsh, father of nine polio stricken children, stood on the front porch of his wooden farm house today and said: "We need a lot of prayers." He was getting them. And lots more besides.- All through the night and into the day, nearly every one of the 679 residents of Durand trekked to Walsh's farmhouse, offering prayers, food, money and help on his 160-acre spread. Sympathy Aroused -'Their sympathy was aroused when the ninth of the Walshes' 14 children was stricken within 10 days after the first case. The latest victim, Edward, 16, was stricken Sunday and taken to Winnebago County hospital, in Rockford, 15 miles southeast of here. A brother, 17, was afflicated Saturday and was in critical condition at home. A sister, Rosellen, 5, was con valescing from the disease in St. Anthony's hospital in Rockford. And six other children, ranging in age from 1 to 15 years, were under observation at home.. Walsh, 53, and his wife, 45, were perplexed about their sud- ,den stroke of misfortune, "It's beyond us," Walsh said "There's not a case of polio in Winnebago county except ours "My children are the only children in the hospital with it. It's as though we were picked out." The five other Walsh chil dren, ranging in age from 6 to 18, have not shown any polio symptoms. None of the nine stricken thus far received injections of Salk vaccine, Walsh said. , fm Study Urged for Portland Heliport Portland (U.R) Port of Port land manager John Winn Jr., yesterday urged a study by the port commission on the feasibil ity of a heliport in downtown Portland. Winn said the heliport could be used to accommodate helicop ters expected to ferry passengers between Portland and Seattle and cities in the Willamette Val ley. ' West Coast Airlines has ap plied to the Civil Aeronautics Board for authority to institute such service. INVESTMENT.
