cent among those voting in Algeria assured him sufficient backing to press ahead with
his program.

will be prosecuted to the Ihnit.
The mutineers will be charged
with attempted prison break and
a variety of other crimes, as yet
unspecified, Paul Chalfin, acting
district attorney, said.
He indicated it will go especial
ly hard with those who stabbed
two guards at Eastern State Pen
itentiary and held them along
with seven others as hostages for
about two hours.
As state and city.officials delved
into the why and how of Sunday
night's audacious attempt, they
uncovered an array of weapons
including homemade grenades.
"Molotov cocktails" in the form
of gasoline-filled tobacco cans,
meat cleavers, a tire iron, zip
guns, bullets, ice picks, knives
and forks, screwdrivers, saw
,blades, files, razor blades.
Led by desperate men with
nothing to lose, the rioters aimed
to go over• a 40-foot stone wall
encircling the penitentiary, one of
the oldest and grimmest in the
country and situated in a crowded
part of the city.
The prisoners had a ladder for
that purpose, too. It was made
from lengths of rope interwoven
with strips of cloth ripped from
mattresses. Evidently weeks of
work went into its making.
