Ain Beida Riots Crushed by French

serious riots yesterday, but military forces in control of the town succeeded in crushing the new movement before it assumed dangerous proportions.

The mayor of Ain Beida issued a call to the population to preserve order and announced that severe punishment would be meted out to those guilty of race incitement.

The smouldering racial hatred in Constantine which flared into the brutal pogrom is plainly felt in the city, with the authorities extremely anxious as to the future. The seven military planes which furnished an escort for Governor General Jules Carde on his visit to Constantine are still here circling above the city watching for concentrations of Arab pogrom bands. Jewish districts on the outskirts of the city appealed to the military forces for protection.

Anxiety is felt over the fate of isolated Jewish families in the remote hinterland of Algeria, on farms and in little townships where they are surrounded by savage Arab tribes. It is believed that most of the isolated Jewish families were exterminated by Arabs.

Funerals of Jewish dead were held today and passed off quietly. Twenty-seven victims of the pogroms were buried in the Jewish cemetery amid the deep mourning of the Jews of the city. Heavy detachments of Senegalese troops guarded the funeral processions.

The first official list of twenty Jews who were killed by Arab pogromists which was made public today includes four infants and four Jewish women.

Several Arab rioters of Jammapes were sentenced today to serve one year sentences in jail for participation in the attack against the Jews.

The governor of Constantine today issued an appeal for peace and union among the population.

At the same time subscription lists for suffering victims of the massacres were opened with participation by official French circles.
