HIGH ALGERIANS TO BE INTERNED
IMPEDING ALLIED EFFORTS LONDON, Nov. 18. The Allied second-in-command in North Africa (Lieutenant-General Mark Clark) announced that a decision had been reached to intern high Algerian personages after proof was obtained that they were impeding the Allied efforts in North Africa. The population has been warned that any demonstration in connexion with the internments would be severely repressed. “The expulsion of the Axis from Africa and its pursuit on the Continent of Europe requires an immense massing of men and material in North Africa,” said Lieutenant-General Clark. “This gigantic enterprise cannot be held up by the attitude of men who have sold themselves body and soul to the enemy and who have deliberately placed themselves in the service of Hitler and Mussolini. Any indulgence towards these men would be criminal weakness.”
