THE COMMANDER of the Oran Army Corps, Gen. Re thore, announced in a com munique he has taken over civil and military authority in Oran, Algeria's second largest city.

A public safety committee headed by a civilian will act as a link between the general and the city's residents.

The troops put up no resistance, Massu apparently was oper ating his rightist Committee of Public Safety here under the eyes of his superior. Gen.

Raoul Salan, while Massu's movement was spreading in demonstrations and violence. THE NEW FRENCH gov ernment in Paris, facing the possibility of civil war pitting French against French, told Salan he was in sole charge of Algerian destinies. What he can do here remained in doubt. The ringing support of the mobs of Oran for Massu's ideas gave the crisis a grave new turn for the French government. The Oran mob stormad the Prefecture, battered the build ing and tossed government papers out of windows.

Gov. Lambert was seized and manhandled by the mob. He fell on the Prefecture steps. Then he was hustled into an army car and driven off to an unknown place.

As part of the maneuvers, warships of the Mediterranean Sixth Fleet will be leaving ports in the area "for the next several days," the Navy added. The Marines already in the amphibious force are those of the 1st Battalion of the 8th Regiment. They are being reinforced by the 2d Battalion of the 2d Regiment from the U.S. Announcement of the Sixth Fleet movements came as the State Department applauded what it called "the courageous efforts" of President Camille Chamoun's government to restore order in Lebanon despite five straight days of anti- Western rioting.

IN DISCLOSING the weap ons shipment, a State Department spokesman stressed they were small items, such as ammunition, and tear gas. No tanks, planes or heavy equipment was involved, he said.

In such previous votes the Puerto Ricans have elected fo remain under the U.S. flag by an overwhelming majority. The military junta that rules Venezuela called out the army in force yesterday to protect Nixon as he departed. Nixon's route from the United States ambassador's residence to the airport was through downtown Caracas along the same streets blocked by the throngs when he ar-rived.

Pflimlin, a Catholic Moderate Republican whose government was approved by the National Assembly only because civil war was feared imminent, took action on several fronts to end the crisis. He pledged that his government never would agree to the Algerian rebel demand for independence.

I WOULD URGE our friends and Allies to be wary of any tendency to be over impressed by the Russians to the extent of entertaining notions of appeasing them. Our friends should remember that unity of purpose and co-operation have served all of us well in the past.

Fangio, 46-year-old road race ace from Buenos Aires, Argentina, returned to the track from Dayton, just before closing time yesterday and took some more practice laps in the Dayton Steel Foundry Special but appeared unsatisfied.

Fangio also previously had been practicing in one of the powerful Novi Specials and it was learned that Fangio could have had the "ride" in that car if he so chose. The Argentinian is scheduled to go to Detroit today and he indicated he may have some definite announcement to make regarding his future plans sometime today. He told friends he was undecided on what to do last night.

IXSIDE TODAY'S STAR Paris (INS) France's shaky new government, battling to preserve the country from dictatorship, anarchy or civil war, demanded yesterday the loyalty of the defiant army in Algeria and ordered the home forces confined to barracks. Premier Pierre Pflimlin won heartening political victory last night when ex-premier Guy Mollet's Socialists voted to participate in the cabinet. Previously the Socialists had greed to support the govern ment but not serve as ministers. But the army in Algeria extended its rule in defiance of Premier Pierre Pflimlin.

Officers joined rabid French nationalists in such cities as Oran, Bone, Constantine and Philippeville in setting up "Committees of Public Safety" similar to the one which seized power in Algiers Tuesday. The "committee" in Oran, Algeria's chief port, placed Governor Pierre Lambert, who had announced his fidelity to the Paris government, under house arrest. Pflimlin's government was teetering, despite the reluctant agreement of four independent party ministers to remain in the day-old cabinet. BUT ONE supposed threat that Gen.

I HAD FAVORED this action during my terms as President, but the Mac-Mahon Act, setting up the Atomic Energy Commission, reserved for the United States all atomic secrets. I hope that now, as the result of our experience and the new conditions in the world today, the Congress will pass the necessary legislation to enable our govern-, ment to extend full nuclear partnership to our Allies.
