Paris 2? There is a Paris
no one sings about, the Paris of
the stiletto, the gun, the garrote.
It is a Paris the tourist rarely
sees yet it is not so far from
the performed perimeter of the

pared to what has been happen
ing because of Algeria in the
"Red Belt" industrial suburbs,
in the '"Cashah" of Paris Chi
cago under Capone was a model
of civic rectitude.
They count the murdered and
wounded here in the hundreds.
One responsible newspaper esti
mated 2,750 casualties in Paris
and a few other areas of France
an average of nine a day this
year!
So far the murder victims are
overwhelmingly Algerians.
About 550 of them have been
strangled, knifed or shot to
death. Nine Europeans have been
killed, but mostly as innocent
bystanders.
In a sense, they are casualties
of the bigger conflict in Algeria
where French forces are trying
to wipe out a rebellion.
There are more than 300,000
Algerians in France, most of
whom live in or near Paris. Most
are unskilled x laborers. Few
speak French. They crowd shab
by hotels, frequent Moslem cafes.
They can enter France at will
since Algeria is a part of the
French nation. Many of them are
hard-working and peace - loving.
They send money to relatives in
Algeria and whole communities
are supported by them.
Algerian Army Hard-pressed
The Algerian rebel army, hard
pressed for money, sends collect
ors to France to "solicit" funds
Some of the killed and wounded
are shopkeepers or workers who
refused to pay.
Some are members of the ri
val independence organizations,
the extremist National Libera
tion Front and the more moder
ate Algerian National Movement.
Their feud is violent.
And there is a third deadly
factor racketeers who pretend
to be from the independence
groups and collect at gunpoint
strictly for themselves.
Algerians do not talk to po
lice. Recently four North Afri
cans were picked up for ques
tioning while driving a car. It
took 15 minutes of interrogation
before one of the men admitted
the other three were taking him
for a ride:

Neuberger, Rivers and Harbors
Group Protest Development Cuts
By A. ROBERT SMITH
Mail Tribune Correspondent
Washington (Special) The
National Rivers and Harbors
Congress and Sen. Richard L.
Neuberger (D
O r e.) have
lodged similar
protests with
President E i s
e n h ower and
Vice President
Nixon against
proposed cut
backs in fed
eral funds riv
A. Robt Smitb
er development
next year. Both took the position
that if Russia can develop mis
siles and build water develop
ment projects simultaneously,
then certainly the United States
need not sacrifice its public
works program in order to put
more money into missiles. "
The rivers and harbors organ
ization is headed by a group of
members of Congress from both
parties, including Republican
leader of the House, Joe Martin.
Its current president is Rep.
Overton Brooks (D-La.).
Reports have leaked out in
the last week that the adminis
tration is set to invoke a "no
new starts policy once again
on river projects and, according
to one source, slash the public
works spending budget by some
20 per cent.
Won't Hasten Sputniks
In a letter and memo to Nixon,
the rivers and harbors group
declared:
"We feel that the United States
did not lag behind Russia in
launching missiles and satellites
because it was appropriating
funds for a reasonable program
of water resources development.
We also feel that we shall not
hasten the launching of Ameri-

can sputniks and missiles by
abruptly halting or crippling our
public works program. We op
pose cuts in public works and
related water development pro
grams. We believe that if addi
tional appropriations for the
military establishment are de
termined to be necessary, these
may be made available by econo
mies in less essential areas of the
budget."
The group suggested that one
place to cut was in aid for for
eign nations to develop their
resources and economies. It ask
ed for domestic priority in this
work.
The organization went on to
point out that the Soviets press
ed their successful missile pro
gram "without curtailing their
own program of waterway im
provement." In the memo to
Nixon, the group stated:
"Even now, they are pushing
ahead with long-term plans for
the electrification and automa
tion of their entire inland wa
terway system. They are apply
ing the power of atomic energy
to propelling 'icebreakers and
cargo boats, and blasting sea
lanes through the Arctic ice
under long-term programs ex
tending through 1960 and even
as far ahead as 1970, they are
building 19 new ports and ex
panding their inland waterway
system through a construction
program that some of our Ameri
can citizens would surely call
'pork barrel projects.'
"We feel that if the Russians
can carry out these two pro
grams simultaneously the mis
sile and the water development
programs the United States
can certainly do the same."
No Time To Throttle Pump
The congress also said that
"sharp curtailment of public
works will contribute to. the
present uneasy business situa
tion." It added that "now is no
time to throttle the pump."
Senator Neuberger, in his let
ter to the president, stressed that
Northwest power dams provided
energy needed for defense pro
duction in World War II, helping
produce aluminum for warplanes
and making possible the Hanford
atomic works. He said:
"Full and well-planned devel
opment of the power potential
of the Columbia basin, far from
being a dispensable luxury,
would .add a margin of safety
to the nation's energy reserves,
energy in a form which cannot
be obtained overnight after the
need for it becomes obvious and
desperate."
"The fundamental significance
of energy resources for national
strength is fully recognized by
those with whom we compete.
On its own vast rivers, the Soviet
Union is engaged in building as
many as 40 new power projects,
several of them larger than even
our own Grand Coulee."
Neuberger suggested that sac
rifices may have to be made in
shifting more expenditures to
defense "but such a shift, in a
nation devoting vast portions of
its economy to automobiles, tele
vision sets, entertainment, liquor
and tobacco, should surely come
out of the top margin of unessen
tial and luxury consumption, not
out of public programs for de
veloping basic economic strength
and for underwriting minimum
social standards."
"How would the mighty United
States look abroad," asked Neu
berger, "if we admit tnat we
can match Soviet accomplish
ments only at the cost of sacri
ficing at home the kind of basic
economic and social programs
which are the goals and aspira
tions of the nations now choos
ing between, communism and
democracy?"
Recognized in Past
The Oregon senator-reminded
the president that "the adminis
tration has in the past recog
nized the significance of water
power projects for national
strength, by granting fast tax-write-off
privileges which have
been defended precisely as emer-

gency measures to induce a shift
of national resources into such
projects. Will the administra
tion, then, defend the position
that private corporations in the
United States can afford to build
these great, needed power proj
ects, such as John Day, but the
federal government cannot?"
Neuberger asked Eisenhower
to give assurance that "federal
programs of vital importance (to
the Northwest) will not be fur
ther cut back" and that the
forthcoming budget contain "the
full amount which the Corps of
Engineers can effectively use
in the construction of John Day
dam on the Columbia River I
believe 830,000,000."
The budget is due to go to
Congress in about four weeks.

Boxcar Cleaning
Discussion Slated
Portland (IP) Public Utility
Commissioner Howard Morgan
said that he has scheduled an
informal meeting of shippers
and representatives of the South
ern Pacific in Roseburg Dec. 16
to discuss claims the railroad
has failed to clean boxcars de
livered to shippers in southern
Oregon.
Morgan said that in the south
ern Oregon area where Southern
Pacific has no rail competition,
the costs to shippers of cleaning
boxcars before they can be load
ed amounts to "several hundred
thousand dollars a year."
Morgan said he proposed the
informal hearing to try to reach
a solution instead of carrying
out his original plan to hold
hearings and proceed in the
courts to give southern Oregon
shippers "the same service" as
received elsewhere.
