WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 20. 1958 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON PAGE 9 A French Army Algiers Split ALGIERS (AP)-A lean, mus-i cular colonel In the uniform of a French paratrooper flew off to Paris the other day. .He was Marcel (Bruno) Bige ard, known as the first para trooper of France. His case dramatizes the dissat isfaction among the career offi cers of the French army fighting the Algerian war. A hero of the Indochina war, Bigeard's sole aim was to serve his country as a warrior. He was the iron paratrooper, the perfect soiaier. . Legends about him grew, and with them newspaper clippings on Eigeara. But about six weeks ago. French military authorities in Algeria is sued a ban on interviews with Bigeard. ,-He talks too much," a staff officer curtly told an Ameri can reporter. Then an enterprising French newsman succeeded in seeing FOREHEAD BRUISED CHIMNEY ROCK, N.C.

Officers found the lone occupant. 56-year-old Bramlett Alvin Ballard, sitting be hind the wheel in neck-high water wun only a bruised forehead. Officers In Reported him. He wrote a story that was a picture of an embittered Bige ard, who felt too many men iere attached to desk jobs, not enough effort was being made to bring the Algerian nationalists to their Knees. Several davs after the nnhlira. lion of the article, Bigeard was relieved of his command and sent to France. L sually well-informed sources claim Bigeard's case was some thing more than a breach of dis cipline by talking to a reporter. They say Bigeard and a number of other highly placed officers in me irencn army here had been planning a coud against the French government but were beat en to the draw by the May 13 plotters whose revolution brought Gen. Charles de Gaulle to power. Regardless of this, the fact re mains that the French career of- ticer corps here is split into two opposing factions those who fought in Indochina and those who did not. To most Frenchmen, Indochina is a symbol of doom, a warning for the future. Those French offi cers who foueht the Indochina War are particularly concerned that Algeria should not meet the same fate. iney claim the French armv could have won this war long ago li r ranee naa made a tuu-nedged effort to fight it. Some liberal-minded Frenchmen predict the "Indochina" elements will not stand by idle if France ever decides on a compromise agreement lor Algeria. m - affis: eras JERUSALEM (AP)-A crippled. 30-year-old Jew whose family name means The Wise Man won the first international Bible quiz competition early today.
