De Gaulle Sees Early
End of Algeria Conflict
Paris-UIPD-President Charles
dc Gaulle today held out hope
for an early end to France's
six-year-old war in Algeria
following his talks with Tu
nisian President Habib Bour
guiba. French sources said de
Gaulle already has conceded
the principle of direct talks
with the Algerian Moslem
rebels and will agree to Al
gerian independence, provided
the rights of the 1.2 million
European settlers are safe
guarded and the Algerians
choose this course freely.
The communique at the con
clusion of Monday night's
talks was cautiously worded,
but it did express optimism
that the war could be brought
to an early end.
' It said loth leaders agreed
"on the possibilities and the
hope that exist now of a posi
tive and swift evolution" in
the Algerian situation, which
ties up 460,000 of France's
troops.
. Behind this cryptic word
ing, informed sources saw a
tlrong hint that the long
awaited French talks with the
rebels would begin soon.
It was known that Bour
gUiba, who openly favors the
rebel provisional government
of Ferhat Abbas and provides
It aid and a headquarters,
came here to urge de Gaulle
to begin peace talks without
delay, and to bring them to
as rapid a conclusion as pos
sible. There seemed little doubt
that de Gaulle agreed to this,
despite the official secrecy
surrounding the discussions at
de Gaulle's country residence
at Rambouillct, 30 miles from
Paris.

UJl How do you J
measure MM
vprotection?-
In football, a passer measures his protection by how well he's shielded from
onrushing linemen. Insurance is like that, too. You measure your protection by
how well your policy guards you from being thrown for a financial loss. To get
the right insurance protection for your car, home, or business . . .you need a good
quarterback an independent insurance agent. He'll line up (he policy that's
exactly right for your needs and budget. And he'll see that you arc properly
protected from start to finish.
Ask your independent agent about the advantages of Atlantic insurance.
Men of judgment buy Atlantic insurance; men of integrity sell it.

Support Measure;
Lumber Opposed
Washington (UPI) A pro
posed bill to establish a na
tional wilderness preservation
system was debated pro and
con Monday in hearings be
fore the Senate Interior com
mittee.
The bill, sponsored by Com
mittee Chairman Sen. Clinton
M. Anderson (D-N.M.), is sup
ported by Interior Secretary
Stewart L. Udall and Agri
culture Secretary Orville L.
Freeman.
Similar Bill in House
Rep. John F. Baldwin (R
Calif.), who testified on be
half of the bill Monday, has
introduced a similar bill in
the House. Also appearing on
behalf of the bill were repre
sentatives of the American
Farm Bureau, the National
Wildlife Federation, the Izank
Walton League of America,
and the Mountaineers of Se
attle. Representatives of the lum
bering and mining industries
expressed opposition to the
bill. An official of the Fed
eral Power Commission also
appeared to ask that the bill
be amended to assure that the
commission's powers would
not be limited under terms
of the bill.
Baldwin told the committee
that "we owe to future gen
erations" the preservation of
wilderness are.js in national
parks, national forests and
elsewhere.
Cites Population Growth
"As you know, the state of
California has had the great
est total increase in popula
tion during the past 10 years
of any state in this country,"
Baldwin said.
"At the same time, we have
in the Sierra Nevada some of
the most beautiful wilderness
areas in our nation. We are
anxious to preserve these
areas in their present natural
form."
Baldwin said he 1 did not
want to see wilderness areas
"cut up by mining roads, tim
ber access roads, and other
evidences of commercial civili
zation."
Lumber industry represen
tatives who opposed the bill
included A. B. Hood, presi
dent of the National Lumber
Manufacturing association and
general manager of the Ralph
L. Smith Lumber Co., Ander
son, Calif., and'W. E. Hagen
stein, of the Industrial For
estry association, Portland.
They protested the "lock
ing up" of natural resources
through what they termed a
"blanket wilderness system."
Praises Forest Service
Hood said his organization
was in favor of the present
system and that lumbermen
had "full confidence" in the
U.S. Forest Service.
"Our industry does not op
pose, but indeed supports, the
establishment of appropriate
reasonably defined areas of
outstanding wilderness attrac
tion as wilderness areas,"
Hood said in a prepared state
ment.
"But we do strongly oppose
the blanket inclusion of vast
areas into a wilderness system
without carefully determin
ing beforehand which areas
may be better suited for other
resource uses when consider
ed in the light of the future
needs of our nation."
The mining industry was
represented by W. Howard
Gray, Reno, Russell Chad-
wick, Spokane, Wash., and
James P. Keane, Wallace,
Idaho.
A principal objection raised
by the mining representatives
was that the proposed bill
would prevent prospecting In
the wilderness areas.
Chairman Anderson pointed
out to both the lumbering and
mining groups that the . bill
contains a section allowing
the President to make ex
ceptions "in the public interest."

Teamster Voting
Ordered by Judge
Washington - IUPD - Federal
Judge F. Dickinson Letts to
day ordered the . Teamsters
Union to hold a convention
and election as soon as possi
ble - a move that seems cer
tain to return James R. Hoffa
to undisputed control of the
giant union.
Hoffa, president of the
teamsters, expects to regain
clear control of the 1,700,000
member international union
at an election to be held in
conjunction with the conven
tion. A group of rank-and-file
teamsters opposed a general
convention and election at
this time. They claimed the
job of cleaning up the union
has not progressed.
UN Can Use Force
If Necessary
United Nations, N. Y. - (UPD
-Secretary General Dag Ham
marskjold, anticipating quick
response to his appeal for
African reinforcements in the
Congo, has told President Jo
seph Kasavubu the United Na
tions has the strength needed
to pacify the country by force,
it was disclosed today.
In a comprehensive report
to the Security Council, Ham
marskjold confirmed that he
had appealed to all African
countries, except Libya and
Togo which have no troops
available, to send contingents
to the U.N. force in the Congo
or delay the withdrawal of
units planned by some countries.
OE
and the House bt indicated,
Incensed by charges that it
might "whitewash" the probe
on the lobbyist report, the
Senate committee Monday or
dered testimony from Fadeley.
Overhulse said if necessary
he would attempt to subpoena
Fadeley ir he failed to show
up. But he added he wasn't
sure if this could be done to
a legislator.
Four Other Msmbsri
The Overhulse committee
includes Sens, Walter J. Pear
son, Thomas R. Mahoney,
John Hare and Anthony
Yturrl.
Hare, Hillsboro Republican,
vowed that all findings would
be public record "regardless
of whose toes they step on."
The committee unanimously
endorsed this.
The Senate authorized the
committee after Fadeley's dis
closure of a background file
on certain legislators held by
Associated Oregon Industries,
a major employer lobby. .
It is in the form of a ques
tionnaire sent out by AOI
some weeks ago.
The committee indicated it
is very interested in a state
ment Fadeley made last week
that some lobby groups have
budgets of "many tens of
Hnllars for influ
encing legislators on certain
legislation." He" also referred
to a "confidential report" on
legislators, including informa
tion relating to their financial
affairs.
He later identified this as
the AOI questionnaire.
