It was De .Gaulle’s sternest crackdown on the -officers who formed so-called Committees of Public Safety after the politico military revolt of May 13 in Al giers. The committees raised the ; cry for De Gaulle’s return to pow er and led the way for him to take the premiership. • , Now De Gaulle sternly wrote to the French commander for Algeria, Gen. Raoul Salan: "The moment has come . . . ‘‘For the military to stop taking part in any organization which i | has a political character, what ever may be the reasons which, under the exceptional circum stances which swept Algeria since the month of May, motivated their participation. Nothing will henceforth justify their belonging to such formations. I order them to withdraw without delay.” De Gaulle told Salan further that he insisted on having a free election for all persons liv ing in Algeria, whatever their views might be. There was no indication from Paris what effect De Gaulle’s move would have on the move ment n'ow underway with head quarters in Cairo to “free” the Algerian government. The Provisional Algerian Government was formed re cently in Cairo and its infor mation office in New Delhi, India, has been making a steady plea to Prime Minister Jawa harlal Nehru'to recognize and aid an independent Algeria. Nehru yesterday refused for mal recognition to the provisional government but pledged moral support. He said!
