The French National Committee, after meetiug three times this week, made a statement that General Ca'troux will return to Algiors without delay with a note replying to the memorandum from General Giraud. The statement added " The committee notes with satisfaction that agreement can now be reached on certain hasic principles, while several important points remain to be clarified. The unity of the French in the war is an imperious and urgent national necessity, and the committee still considers it' necessary that General de Gaulle should have an opportunity of going to Algiers accompanied by several national commissioners.
