FRENCH PLANS FOR ALGERIA
Commissions To Begin Studies
(N.Z. Press Association—Copyright) PARIS, September 20.
The first of four commissions set up as part of the French Government’s plan for promoting democracy and economic progress in Algeria begins work today. It consists of 128 Algerians, mostly Moslems, who will spend three months studying agricultural reform in Algeria. The other three commissions, to be established next month, will make recommendations on relations between ethnic groups, particularly Moslems and Europeans, administrative organisation, and village life. Because of their compositions, the commissions’ recommendations are expected to carry weight, politically as well as technically, as representing the Algerian people’s free choice, instead of the imposed will of Paris.
