Attack Post
ORAN, Algeria OP)-Secret Ar-
my commandos posing as regular
French Army troops, seized aban-
doned sandbag posts at the edge
of a Moslem neighborhood and
killed 20 persons, it was estimated
yesterday.
Angered by the attack with sub-
machine guns and grenades on
men, women and children, Mos-
lems in the area armed themselves
with pipes, sticks and stones and
murdered a European near their
quarters and injured about six per-
sons. They also stoned passing Eu-
ropean cars.
The commando unit staged at-
tacks on the Moslem suburb, Cite
Des Oliviers, during the night and
day, unofficial sources said. Each
time the-Secret Army Force, which
opposes France's cease-fire with
the Alg'erian Nationalists and
wants to keep Algeria French, had
disappeared when French troops
appeared.
The neighborhood has been
guarded by military forces for
weeks. But several days ago the
guards were withdrawn.n
The first attack was late Mon-.
day when the streets were filled
with men, women and children.
The Secret Army commandos ar-
rived in an army truck, two jeeps
and a car.
The men took up the sandbag-
ged posts recently - evacuated by
the guards-then opened fire.
Panic-stricken Moslems fled in all
directions, leaving dead and
wounded behind.
When the French Army arrived
the commandos had disappeared
again. Troops saw the Moslems
carrying many victims with them
as they fled. They estimated the
toll for both attacks at about 20.

ACLU Urges
Executive Veto
The American Civil Liberties
Union of Michigan has prepared a
15-page statement urging Gov.
John B. Swainson to veto a bill
recently adopted by the Legisla-
ture which would outlaw the Com-
munist party and certain other
groups.
The ACLU statement says that
the bill "does not merit passage"
on three grounds. "Legally, it is of
dubious constitutional character
...socially it is a giant leap back-
ward ... and-from the standpoint
of propaganda, it places our critics
in, a position to charge us, not
without accuracy, with hypocrisy."

sile contract costs plus an extra

The Senate invesigations sub-
committee brought out the testi-
mony at a sometimes stormy hear-
ing at which the company insisted
its Nike profits, equalling 13 per
cent of invested capital, were
reasonable.
Sen. John L. McClellan (D-Ark),
the subcommittee chairman, com-
mented:
"If that is reasonable ...I'm
mistaken ...it seems pretty high
to me." A Western Electric vice-
president, C. Raymond Smith, and
other officials testified the profits
totalled $169 million. They said
this figured out to only 3.5 cents
for each dollar of sales value. This
was less than many other missile
makers charged, they said.
McClellan asked if it wasn't true
that the company had rented two
buildings from the government in
1951-61 for plant facilities and
then billed the Army for the en-
tire cost of the rent plus a $290,000
profit on the rent.
"Yes," Smith replied.

Zorin Awaits Word
Of Soviet Attitude
GENEVA (P)--The United States
and Britain began probing yester-
day to determine whether a com-
promise proposal for suspension of
nuclear weapons tests can be
transformed into an enforceable
treaty.
At the 17-nation general dis-
armament conference, U n i t e d
States Ambassador Arthur H. Dean
and British Minister of State Jo-
seph B. Godber asked a series of
questions concerning the proposal
advanced Monday by eight middle
group nations,
Awaits Instructions
While the two western delegates
were seeking information, Soviet
Deputy Foreign Minister Valerian
A. Zorin avoided getting drawn
into thediscussion. Presumably he
is awaiting instructions from Mos-
cow before indicating the Soviet
attitude to the compromise pro-
posal.
Dean and Godber sought to
determine whether the compromise
contains any enforcement teeth.
They asked if it will provide more
than an inspection system that
can operate only with the consent
of a suspected power.
Speaking for the eight non-
aligned countries, James Barring-
ton of Burma said the questions
advanced by Dean and Godber
would be carefully studied. le
made no attempt to answer them
at once.
Vague Ideas
On the face of it, the com-
promise plan falls short of the
international inspection and con-
trol arrangements demanded by
Washington and London. It con-
sists more of vague ideas than
concrete proposals,Western sources
said.
While this memorandum sub-
mitted by the eight cannot be
accepted by the West in its pres-
ent form it could be used along
with other proposals in the nego-
tiating for a treaty.
Ruk, White
Ash Berlin
Discussions
WASHINGTON (A )-A United
States spokesman went along yes-
terday with the Russian ambassa-
dor's description of the first new
Berlin talks as "fruitful . . . busi-
nesslike."
State Department press officer
Lincoln White gave this backing to
Soviet Ambassador Antoly F. Dob-
rynin's report after Monday's one-
hour meeting with Secretary of
State Dean Rusk inaugurating a
new round of United States-Soviet
discussions on the Berlin crisis.
White said further that:
No New Ground
1) "No new ground was broken"
at Monday's parley nor had Rusk
expected to achieve this at the
opener. Rather, the United States
and Soviet representatives re-
viewed what Rusk and Soviet For-
eign Minister Andrei Gromyko had
discussed on Berlin during their
Geneva meetings last month.
2) Much of Monday's session
was devoted to procedure - how,
when and where to go ahead with
future talks. On this no decision
was reached.
3) The United States is contact-
ing its allies to report on the ini-
tial round and receive any sugges-
tions.
Deadlock Remains
White made plain, however, that
there was no discussion of sub-
stance which would alter the still-
deadlocked Berlin issue. Asked
whether he agreed with Dobryn-
in's description of the meeting as
businesslike and fruitful, White
replied, "I have no quarrel with
that."
The Rusk proposals include an
international authority covering
access to Berlin, creation of tech-
nical committees between West
and East Germany, non-aggres-
sion pledges by the NATO and
Warsaw Pact defense groups, and
United States-Soviet agreement
not to give nuclear weapons to
other countries.

Blough Visits
White House
By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON -- Roger M.
Blough, chairman of U.S. Steel
Corp., spent 45 minutes with Pres-
ident John F. Kennedy, at the
White House last night in what
was pictured as an effort to clear
the atmosphere after their head-
on clash last week.
The purpose of the face-to-face
talk, unannounced beforehand, was
given by White House officials.
Blough's visit folowed by exactly
one week another unheralded call
on the President by him, to break
the news that U.S. Steel was going
to increase its prices $6 a ton.
Maintain Relations
Some officials interpreted the
meeting as an indication that
Kennedy hoped to maintain "re-
sponsible and cordial" relations
with business interests.
In other action, Sen. Estes Ke-
fauver (D-Tenn) said yesterday
hearings into steel pricing prac-
tices-an aftermath of last week's
steel price drama-probably will
start in about six weeks.
Meanwhile, a Republican con-
gressmen accused Secretary of De-
fense Robert S. McNamara of "an
absolute violation of law" in
awarding a steel contract to the
Lukens Steel Co. last Friday.
Rep. Melvin R. Laird (R-Wis)
said McNamara's action violated
the laws covering competitive bid-
ding in the proceurement of de-
fense material.
Lukens Contract
Rep. Gerald R. Ford, Jr. (R-
Mich), who brought up the sub-
ject of the Lukens contract during
debate.on the Defense Appropria-
tion Bill, called for a congression-
al investigation.
"This was an obvious evasion of
the law covering defense procure-
ment," Ford said.
Essay Hits Warren Court
thering of the Communist con-
spiracy through the Supreme
Court which is dominated by Chief
Justice Warren.",
Rose cited several cases where
the court, since Warren took of-
fice, has aided the Communists. He
said that the court has delivered
30 decisions favorable to the Com-
munist cause and that Warren
personally has voted in favor of
the Communists 39 times.
Free Communists
In the Yates vs. United States
appeal, the court ruled that a vio-
lation of the Smith Act must in-
volve an effort to instigate action.
This, said Rose, is in effect telling
the Communists: "You are free to
plot to destroy this country, and
we will not bother you until you
actually start dropping bombs on
us, at which time we may have to
prosecute."
Discussing the segregation case,
Brown vs. Board of Education of
Topeka, he said that Warren,
when he wrote the decision, did
not consider the "separate but
equal" precedent established in
Plessy vs. Ferguson but paid heed
to what a Swedish sociologist "who
openly and repeatedly had de-
clared his contempt for our Con-
stitution, 'philosophized' that the
races should be forced together -
like it or not."
Rose added that "we know that
one of their (Communists') prime
tactical objectives is to exploit
various minority groups, to create
tension and hatred among the
races, and to incite and encourage
any violence they can."
The question, Rose noted, lies
not in whether Warren has aided
the Communists but whether he
did it unwittingly or in full knowl-
edge using "the guise of 'civil
rights,' 'academic freedom' and
other semantic gobbledy gook."
However, he said that it does
not matter because "stupidity is a
high crime when its inevitable con-
sequence is the destruction of
Western civilization. Even treason
can be no higher crime - if the
consequences are the same."
There is more than enough jus-
tification, indeed "their demeanor
warrant this action," to impeach
not only Warren but Justices Hugo
Black, William O. Douglas, Wil-
liam J. Brennan and perhaps oth-
ers, he concluded.
Rose is now taking extension
courses in engineering at the Uni-
versity of California at Los An-
geles and working at a Santa Mon-
ica aircraft plant. He was dropped
from the UCLA engineering school
previously due to poor grades.
End Contracts
With Firms'
WASHINGTON {P) - President
John F. Kennedy's Committee on
Equal Employment Opportunity
yesterday banned two firms from
being awarded further govern-
ment business unless they correct
questioned racial policies.
The action is the toughest taken
so far by the committee in enforc-
ing Kennedy's executive order re-
quiring no job bias by ,govern-
ment contractors. Similar action is
being considered against other
companies, it was stated.
