The angry aftermath of the French terror bombing of a Tunisian town: French forces in treaty-held Tunisian bases are blockaded; mobs clamor for outright action against France. The explosive Algerian issue becomes, no longer a French problem, but a touchy international issue. Throngs standing shoulder to shoulder in the town's square in Tunisia, Africa. MS - French dignitaries addressing the people. MS - People applauding and waving their arms. MS - French troops on patrol. MS - French and Tunisia troops patrolling the buffer zone behind fences.
