Returning here in triumph from his enforced exile in France, Tunisian nationalist leader Habib Bourguiba told a welcoming crowd of 50,000 Tunisians that Moslems and Jews in Tunisia would share the same rights under the new home rule set-up won from France.
Mr. Bourguiba, leader of the Neo-Destour Party, condemned racism and xenophobia in no uncertain terms, in his address. Among the notables who turned out to greet him were the Grand Rabbi of Tunis and the president of the Jewish community of Tunis. In the ranks of a boy scout guard of honor for M. Bourguiba, Jewish and Moslem scouts stood side by side.
