Newsmen on the scene are, of course, hungry for news about Mr. Eisenhower's intentions. Also - about his doctors' opinion. Today, they got a statement from the medicos - who refused to become embroile d in the question of hether the Pre 1 ent 1 s illness is chronic. Some doctors have been quoted as saying that Mr. Eisenhower is r ced with the possibility of a recurrence of his ailment. In reply, the President's physician ~ tha.l; ~ they don't want any controver · with~e+.P---,,el~e~ who have ll§i;~ a~~ll - 2 no ersonal k no led e ofthe Pr esidents ailment.

Once before, the Fren~~elegate walked out A of the General Assembly - when the UN seemed about to take up that J.ag problem. And the ' French only came back, when the UN . changed its mind. . M The Mollet government · wants to make sure t:ba:t- there'at I\ no further change at the headquarters of the International organization. So the Foreign Ministry in Paris issues a statement - repeating that Algeria ls an internal affair of the French - and therefore outside the authority of the UN. The Paris Forei n Ministry adds that, the fighting in Algeria 1s not a threat to international peace - and charges that the Arab nations who want a UN debate - have been helping the 11 Army of Allah." ADD UNITED NATIONS Later this evenin, French Foreign Minister Pineau, after a conference with Secretary of States Dulles - told reporters that America will support France in keeping the Algerian question out of the UN Security Council. .al&DlA . . ... . Mean,hile in A . giers, the French executed two rebels today - amid a scene of " pa n d_ monium". The• e xecution took o l~ce at the J rison near the Algiers "Casbah•. The r rison is full of m e mbers of the "Army of Allah". When the t o executions were carried out by the guillotine at dawn today - the other p risoners began to shout •Long Live A geria•. A l so insulting anti-French alogans. An uproar th a t c o uld be he rd for some distance. The French had held up these executions for a long time - hoping clemency would help end the wave of murders. But in recent w e eks, atrocious mass murders and ass assinations - have increased. And so finally, the authorities decided - to carry through the executions. With more to follow. All of which may touch off more violence. Since the rebels h a ve threatened to k ill two Frenchmen - for e very Nationalist executed. The guerrilla wartare in l geria seems to be dying down. France now h a s m a ssive military forces in . lgeria - and the main rebel forces a . ~ arently have been crushed. The inist r for Algeri ~ , Robert LaCoste, is rep rin to launch his reform pr og raa, including a bo ition of s epar a te a ministrations in towns that have mixed French and Arab opul a tions. He romisea to change the system - if peace really comes to Algeria. Fi fty J p anese fishermen heve returned from Russ ia - minus their bo a ts an their ca p tains.

And the boats were c nfiscated. The seamen, just released. F.OYPT Toni ht it seems more likely than ever, that Egypt will et economic aid from Russia. That 1 s indicated by Premier Nasser's speech in "Republic Square" - when he told a crowd of one hundred thousand, that Cairo is willing to accept help from anvone. When the Egyptian Premier said that, one of his most interested listeners - was the Soviet Foreign Minister, Shepilov. Informed sources in Cairo declare that Shepilov has offered Nasser a big "package deal" to help develop Egypt economically.

In bis speech, Tito did not name St lin as the man who caused seven bitter years of enmity between Russia and Yugoslavia. But the inference was clear when he said: - •The break was a result o f one man's opinion - and a d istortion of what took place in Yugosl a via." Then he added thrt the p ~ st is now buried - and Yugoslavia a nd Russi a wil l work to ether for ;e ce and cooper a tion bet w een nations.

Before the n te A pro p ri a tions Committee, he reiterated that, to slash would endanger our security. And that the Soviet "ne · look" - does not remove the danger of Communist agg ression. He made a s - ecial lea for aid to Yugoslavia, an still thinks Tito's inde endence of the Kremlin is im · ortant to us. That it would be folly to let Russia ominate Yugoslavia economically : - which might happen if our aid were wit~drawn.
