Image quality is not the best. Revolt Fails: De Gaulle Triumphs in Algerian Crisis The uprising of right-wing Algerian settlers against Charles Degaulle's liberal policies ends after 8 days that shock the foundations of the Fifth Republic. Faced with an unyielding stand by De Gaulle, and an army loyal to the government, barricaded extremists capitulate. The crisis is over. Women give kisses to men at barricades. Sign, "Zone Francaise." Lots of soldiers stand around barricades. Huge crowds in the streets (orderly, no fighting; they seem just to be standing around).
