Algiers V Algeria's 1,200,
000 Europeans out of a total
population of 9 million are as
divided as anyone else on how
to stop the rebellion in their
beautiful, tortured land.
But they are unanimous on
one thing: They plan to stay
come what will.
With them it is not a political
principle or even an act of faith, j
would not think of leaving. Why1 Salan says his worst problem
should we?" now is political-neighboring Tun-
It is a simple fact of life.
Here they were born, and their
fathers before them, and here
they will stay. It is their coun
try. They have nowhere else to
go.
"Leave Algeria," asks Guy
Teisscire, 22, and army private
doing his military service right
here at home. "My ancestors
came from France and Spain but
my parents are Algerian and so
am I."
But you are in such a minority,
one points out.
"Texans are a minority to
Mexicans in parts of their state.
Whites are a minority to Negroes
In much of the South. But they
Aren't Getting Bombed
Yes. but Southerners and Tex
ans aren't getting bombed and
shot at.
'"True," says Teisseire, "but the
terrorism will pass some day,
somehow. Algeria will remain
and so will we. Anyway the
chances of injury or death from
the rebels is about the same as
getting run over by a truck. I've
been here thorough the worst
of it. None of my family of fri
ends has even seen an attack."
It does seem peaceful in this
city

of sidewalk cafes where
clerks take their midday aperitifs
in the wickerwork chairs.
But the military stands watch
fully at every intersection, and
there are just as many submach
incgun barrels in sight as there
are golden loaves of long French
bread poking from string-net
shopping baks.
At the entrance to every bank,
movie, department store or rest
aurant stands a male employee
whose sole job it is to check
packages to make sure nobody
brings in a time bomb.
Soldiers are posted on every
bus and streetcar. On the water
front highway bronzed men of
the Foreign Legion, many of
them obviously German, are
stopping all cars and checking
passes.
France has 400.000 troops now
in Algeria plus 200,000 police,
gendarmes and part-time militia
men. General Raoul Salan is top
military commander. He was
formerly commander-in-chief in
Indochina.
Ask any commanding general
if he needs more men and he
will always say yes," replied Sa
lan with a smile. "But it's a
question for the government to
decide."

Worse in Tusisia
I "If it weren't for the training
i and arms the rebels get in Tun
isia and Morocco the rebellion in
Algeria would dry up," Salan
i says. "The problems far worse
on the Tunisian frontier than the
Moroccan. Borguiba (Tun isian
Premier Habib Bourguiaba) is
not only supporting the rebell
ion, he is pushing it.
"Back in the time of Ben Bella
the rebel military chief captured
last October the rebellion got
most of its direction from Cairo.
Now the center has shifted to
Tunis. All the rebel chiefs are
there."

Now telephone men handle giant pole
like matchsticks. A typical telephone
pole is 35 feet long. It weighs 620 lbt. It
needs a hole 6 feet deep. It often used to
take four men a full day to put up three or
four, poles. But now two men, like Ted
Homen (led, above) and Lewis Leonardi,
ran easily put up 15 poles in a day. How's it

Housewife Glad To Return To Chores
After Brief Career as Television Star
BY WILLIAM EWALD
United Press Correspondent
New York nil Pauline Mc
Carthy, tired and retired, is the
happiest housewife in the coun
try today.
She's slaving over a hot stove
again instead of under hot lights.
-A slim. 32-year-old blonde
whose husband is a bricklayer
forman, Mrs. McCarthy was
plucked warm .from the bosom of
her Cleveland family and turned
into a TV star by CBS last week.
She made $559.50 by appear
ing on the Garry Moore morn
ing show on "I've Got A Secret"
and on two CBS soaps, "Love of
Life" and "Edge of Night."
She met Moore, Ed Sullivan,
Doug Edwards, Polly Bergen,
Jayne Meadovs and a dipperful
of other TV performers. She was
lodged at a . hotel of some ele
gance, lunched three times each
day off CBS' cuff and got a rare
peek behind the cameras.
She'll Be Housewife
But it was, said Mrs. Mc
Carthy, exhausting.
"They can have it," she said
with some disenchantment. "I'll
take being a housewife anytime."
Mrs. McCarthy's brief fling as
a TV celebrity was engineered
by Garry Moore. Garry dispatch-
led two aides to Cleveland early
last month to pick a typical
housewife. Mrs. McCarthy, mar
ried 14 years and the mother of
three, waj tapped in a shopping
center parking lot.
She and her husband were
rail-roaded to Manhattan on
Thursday, June 20. CBS coughed
up enough dough to pay for her
husband's lost salary and also
hired his mother as a baby sitter.
Mrs. McCarthy was officially
declared a TV star on Monday.
"It wasn't so bad at the begin
ning of the week I was on the
Garry Moore morning show and
we just talked and then there
were interviews and costume ap
pointments and publicity pic
tures," recalled Mrs. McCarthy.
Even Missed Lunch
"But around W e d n e s d ay,
everything seemed to bust loose.
I rehearsed for 'Edge of Night'
from 'nine in the morning till
noon. Then they put me in a cab
and sent me to another studio
to rehearse for 'Love of Life.'
Then I went back in another cab
to 'Edge of Night.' rehearsed
some more and went on the air.
"Thursday morning, they got
me up again to rehearse some
more for 'Love of Life.' Then
at noon, they told me I had to
rehearse for Garry Moore Fri
day show. I was going to do a
skit with him. Then they sent
me back to 'Love of Life, again
to play the maid. Friday morn
ing, Garry Moore again. Then
over to 'Love of Life, again.
'It was nice and an experience
and all that, but it's not for me.
From now on, I think I'll just
sit in my living room and let
somebody else do the work on
TV."
