PARIS-The city has been rela-
tively calm in this first week
and a half after the proclamation
of the "cessez-le-feu" which
brought an end to the seven-and-
a-half year Algerian war.
President De Gaulle's announce-
ment a week ago Sunday was ex-
pected to touch off a series of
protests by the OAS (Secret Army
Organization), even more violent
than those that preceded the
cease-fire. The small Sunday night
crbwd at Opera-Comique 'was an
indication of this fear. Ticket-
holders preferred to stay home
rather than risk going out into
the streets.
", * *
BUT ALTHOUGH bombings and
assassin actions have increased
considerably in Algeria, the ex-
pected OAS activity in Paris and
on the mainland has not yet ma-
terialized.
In fact, in Paris, you have the
feeling that nothing new has hap-
pened, that nothing out of the
ordinary is taking place. Parisians
gather around newstands to read
of violence in "Alger" or Oran or
Bab-El-Oued, students still dem-
onstrate occasionally, and of
course, you notice an overabund-
ance of policemen in Paris. But
after a time, you become accust-
omed to seeing the streets lined
with gendarmes, and showing
your identification card.

ALTHOUGH Raoul Salan's OAS
is making its major effort in the
capitals of Algeria which is to be
expected, the violent activity cpn-
tinues here. And Parisians, too,
continue to be horrified, disheart-
ened and disgusted by the OAS
bombings and killings.
Everyone is h o r r i f i e d and'
shocked, but there are still differ-
ent shades of opinion.
One 15-year-old spoke o) ithe
discussions of her classmates at
the lycee. "Everyone asks if you're
"pour ou contre.'" There are lots
of girls who say they are "pour"
the long range goal of the OAS-
French Algeria-but against its,
methods. This is a typical reaction.
' * * *
LESS TYPICAL is the feeling of
a 20-year-old French boy, a stu-
dent at Hautes Etudes Commer-
ciales in Parisi Pro-OAS, he wants
to "agir," to act, in support of the
organization. He thinks Algerian
self-determination is a "sellout,"
believes that De Gaulle has re-
neged oh his promises and be-
trayed his country, and that the
OAS is the only existing movement
which still values the honor and
dignity of the Frenchman.
(De Gaulle, although he rode to
power on the coattails of an Army
revolt led by Salan 'and partisans
of "Algerie francaise," was al-
Army terrorists. The Bab El Oued quarter, where the troops and
the terrorists have been fighting for the last week, is on the west side of the city.
ways ambiguous as to his views
on Algeria. In September, 1959,
he boldly proposed self-determina-
tion for the first time.)
A young Parisian woman, about
28, expressed another view: "If I
were a European in Algeria, I be-
lieve 'd support the OAS, too.
One promises to guarantee the
rights of Europeans, but there is a
large difference between a paper
agreement and its implementation.
It's going to be like Morocco and
Tunisia. The French, outnum-
bered, will find it necessary to
come home."
* * *
WHEN IT comes to the OAS, the
Frenchman hardly knows which
side he is on. His patriotism, his
national pride, his sadness at see-
ing the last of the grand French
Empire slip out of the country's
grasp, all make him a partisan of
Salan's army.
But his love of liberty, his natu-
ral hate for any movement tend-
ing toward fascism, and his dis-
gust for violence, render him
strongly anti-OAS.
* * s
THE INDIVIDUAL Frenchman
may be divided against himself,
but the newspapers have taken an
unmistakably anti-OAS stand.
Parisian dailies cary commentaries
and editorials on the front page
next to the news account of the
day's OAS activity.
The case of one little Parisian
girl of four years, was given great
attention. An OAS "plastique" ex-
ploding in. the girl's neighborhood
severely damaged the nursery
where she was sleeping. As a di-
rect result of injuries suffered
from the blast, the pretty child
was blinded.
The propaganda effect of the
event was tremendous. Parisians,
who up to that moment had taken
only a passing interest ini the kill-
ings of adults, were shocked by the
maiming of an innocent child.
Paris Match, the weekly Life-type
magazine, ran special picture fea-
tures in several editions, and the
case was extensively covered in all
newspapers.
.4 * .
PARISIANS were also horrified
by a bomb explosion a week ago in
the suburbs. Several young school
girls were badly wounded. One lost
her arm. The tragic case was also
the subject of numerous newspaper
accounts.
These two cases incurred the
wrath of Parisians, and aroused
their sympathy. Any propaganda
gains in popular support made by
the OAS up to that, point were
wiped out with the news of these
two incidents.
Salan's goal in the "metropole"
is to create an atmosphere of ter-
ror, panic and fear. "Fear is often
the beginning of sagacity," Salan
says. But such tactics are not
jolting Parisians into support for
the OAS, but rather building up a'
strong wall of opposition against
the clandestine organization.
+ * *
THE EDITORIAL of journalist
Serge Bromberger in Le Figaro is
indicative of French newspaper
comment. Bromberger says: "It is
obvious that the OAS is searching
for proof of strength in Algeria.
They know that she has ninety out
of one hundred chances to lose it
without even having posed a seri-
ous problem, and of the 10 per
cent who remain, hardly one or
two to erect a durable chaos...
"The pride of these lost soldiers
has become so monstrous that xa-
ther than recognize their political
error, they prefer to bury them-
selves with an abused European
population . . . and if possible to
lead the metropole with them...
Honor consists of knowing when to
put an end to the adventure be-
fore the blood is shed...
"But what fragment of patriot-
ism or military honor could remain
among these lost soldiers who,
after so many outrages, even at
the expense of their army com-
rades, do not even try to hide that
their goal is to set the Moslems
against the Europeans ... That's
putting a cheap price on the life
of those very Europeans whose
cause they claim to defend . .-
BROMBERGER, besides sum-
ming up the attitude of many
Frenchmen, touches on two vital
problems. First, what is the actual
strength of the OAS? Second, will
the French army support Salan?
Salan himself admits that sup-
port for his cause in metropolitan
France is not very gratifying. In a
secret directive, which fell into
the hands of journalists, and
whose publication caused a sen-
sation in Paris, Salan noted:
. . In the present situation de-
spite the enormous work accom-
plished in these last two months,
thethe metropole does not appear
to be in a position to give the sup-
port indispensable to the successes
of our action and susceptible, in
any case, to tip the scale of events
in our favor.
Salan has analyzed the situation
well. There are certainly very
few here who sympathize with the
OAS, and even less who would act
in its favor if the chips were down.
BUT, IN ALGERIA, OAS power
is quite another thing. Reliable
sources, notably the New York
Times, report that the majority of
the million French Algerians sup-
port the clandestine organization.
The OAS has drawn its support
primarily by the claim that, with
the pullout of the French army,
the Moslems will not carry out the,
guarantees to their rights, listed
in the Evians-les-Bains agreement.
This argument is enough to scare
Europeans into support. And with
massive killings, in times when
men are afraid to step out of
their homes for fear of being shot
in the back, one does not openly
express opposition to the OAS. For1

GROWING VIOLENCE--In December, the government called out riot police (above) to quell
rightists demonstrating in Algiers against French President Charles de Gaulle's policy of Algerian
home rule. The riot squads and army troops use tear gas to suppress the colons. But the violence has
intensified since then. Just a week ago, regular army troops moved into the Bab El Oued quarter
of Algiers (below) to fight a major engagement against guerillas of the Secret Army Organization.
LIFE GOES ON-A surprising number of pictures from strife-
torn Algeria show seemingly uninterested civilians walking past a
corpse. The picture shows one of six Moslems killed by European
terrorists on the Rue Michelet in the heart of Algiers.

almost incredulous before this
balance-of-power.
Before the cease-fire, it was pre-
dicted that the Army, if even
grudgingly, would stay loyal to
de Gaulle. Events have confirmed
this prediction. Salan, in. his se-
cret directive, also admits that the
army will not work for the OAS in
Algeria. He concludes, however,
that OAS support could be found
in garrisons in France and in
Germany.
THE CEASE-FIRE has been
signed, but the war is still not
over. But now, it is simply a ques-
tion of time. On April 8, the
French will probably be asked to
go to the polls for a referendum,
one of de Gaulle's favorite ways
for getting his own way, and gath-
ering a little personal glory for
himself and France at the same
time. It is not likely the French
will turn down the accords drafted
by the French and the FLN.
A "Oui" for de Gaulle is tanta-
mount to a "Non" for Salan. If the
French manifest an opposition to
its policies, the OAS cannot sur-
vive. The Secreta Army Organiza-
tion and General Raoul Salan,
will be rendered powerless without
strength and support coming from
metropolitan France.
