Meanwhile, the bitter rivals were facing new complications. From Algiers, word came that Benkhedda was finished, and that his future role-no matter what his title-could only be a subordinate one. But the anti-Ben Bella cause is still being upheld by hard-bitten Belkacem Krim, who effectively controls the mountainous region of Kabylia, and by subtle, self-educated Mohammed Boudiaf, 40, who spent most of the war in a French prison with Mohammed ben Bella and grew to mistrust...
Last Plea. Vice Premier Belkacem Krim of the Moslem F.L.N. flew in from his headquarters in Tunis to confer with members of the Provisional Government at Le Rocher Noir, the administrative center near Algiers. If anyone could talk to the killers and terrorists of the S.A.O. it was Krim, who had last appeared in Algeria in 1957 as a leader of the F.L.N. underground, which was spreading death and destruction among the Europeans. The S.A.O. had sworn never to allow an F.L.N. leader to enter Algeria alive, but the rightist newspaper L'Anrore hailed his presence and the prospect...
France's De Gaulle sent a delegation headed by his trusted Algerian Affairs Minister, Louis Joxe. The F.L.N. delegation was headed by Vice Premier Belkacem Krim, a former French army noncom. As the delegates met in Evian's cream-colored Hotel du Pare, they had only to look out the window for evidence that Salan's S.A.O.* was still desperately trying to sabotage peace. French security forces prowled the town, armed motorboats guarded the water approaches over Lake Geneva, army halftracks along the esplanade pointed the snouts of antiaircraft guns skyward. In Paris, the S.A.O. struck massively...
...Casual Stroll. These final hurdles would undoubtedly be overcome this week at yet another meeting of the weary negotiation teams, headed by F.L.N. Vice Premier Belkacem Krim and De Gaulle's Algerian Affairs Minister Louís Joxe. But the daily bloodbath in Algeria mocked the long-delayed promise of peace. The death toll in 1962 has mounted to 1,400. In Algiers, Moslem gunmen shot dead a taxi driver known to be an S.A.O. leader. Within 15 minutes, bands of S.A.O. killers appeared at populous street corners and gunned down 35 Moslem passersby. Three other S.A.O. gunmen last...
...accord had been hammered out between teams of negotiators headed by Louis Joxe, De Gaulle's Minister of State for Algerian Affairs (see box) and the F.L.N. Vice Premier, burly Belkacem Krim. Already approved by the French Cabinet, the agreement needed only the approval of four-fifths of the Revolutionary Council, which could not reject it without also rejecting Premier Benyoussef Benkhedda who, only six months ago, was designated by the Council to replace ill and aging (62) Ferhat Abbas in the task of swiftly bringing the war to a close...
