You sound just like a fool.” “I’m no fool,” said the Lion, “1 think I’m pretty wise, Don't you know that I am King of Beasts just because I advertise?” Now a rabbit heard the Lion's words; ran homeward like a streak, He tried the Lion’s plan out, but his roar was just a squeak.

PFLIMLIN (Continued from Pa.<« on*) Two symptoms of a “thaw” In relations between Paris and Algiers were announcements that censorship of news aboot Algeria • for publication abroad was aboll ished only 36 hours after it was instituted and that telegraphic communications between France and Algeria, suspended since the beginning of the revolt there, , were being resumed at midnight. Earlier today the council’s in- - terior committee approyed the . emergency powers by a vote of 15 to 2, thus assuring its over- > whelming passage by the full upper house, Safe for the Moment The action strengthened Pflim- , lin for the time being, for defeat in the Senate or the House would have brought down the Pflimlin government. It would have pre- ? cipitated the crisii in which DeGaulle and the Communists would • stage their final showdown struggle for control of France f Political observers said this r struggle would still come in the future but that Pflimlin was safe . for the moment. Tuesday night the extreme right j wing and the Gaullist supporters voted in the National Assembly against the bill which would give Pflimlin strong powers to crush the Moslem rebellion in Algeria. , Informed sources said Pflimlin 1 was sending Gen. Henri Lorillot, 1 the newly named chief of the French general staff, to Algeria 5 for a personal inspection trip. Of- ' ficials said his mission would be strictly a military one and not a political vist on * behalf of the governmeint. Fght Goes On - The government disdpsed Monday that fighting with the Moslem t rebels has raged unabated since beginning of the pro-De Gaulle insurrection _t h ere, and it has pledged itself to step up the fight against the rebels. S o Meanwhile conservative former Premier Paul Reynaud, still spry at 79. introduced a bill in the National Assembly proposing revi'sion of the constitution to enable : Parliament to delegate its legislative powers to the governmen in I an emergency. I This would curb the frequent 'crises which have found France without a government in crucial times. Reynaud was last premier of France's third republic before parliament handed over full powers to Marshal Philippe Petain after the Nazi invasion in 1940. The Pflimlin government also promised Tuesday to ram through a constitutional reform bill designed to strengthen the powers I of the executive and make it more difficult to. overthrow him. .. _ A good citizen will respect the j riggWjf others. ■■■ DECWUnitamfl Tonight & Thursday Tremendous in COLOR — One of the All Time Greats!
