N.J. This farmhouse in Colts Neck was the home of Militia Capt. Joshua Huddy during the American Revolution. It was here he was first captured during a British raid in 1780, only to escape as he was being taken to New York. This sketch of the house, which has" been gone for many years, appeared in Barber and Howe's Historical Collections, published more than a century ago.

Secret Army Strikes To Impede Pact Terrorizes Algiers As Rebels Study Terms of Peace ALGIERS W-A wave of terrorist attacks swept Algiers today as the right-wing Secret Army made a last-ditch effort to wreck an impending French-Algerian agreement to end the Vk-year rebellion.

Police reported more than a score of scattered attacks between 7 a.m. and noon, as European gunmen in cars and afoot fired at Europeans and Moslems, killing at least 11 persons and wounding 15. The violence erupted as the Algerian rebels' National Council was called into session in Tripoli to act on an agreement with France to end the strife. The 60-member Parliament was expected to give the needed four-fifths approval to the accord pav-ine the wav for Algerian independ ence, a measure already endorsed by France. See Cease-Fire Sunday With the measure reported approved bv the rebel cabinet, hopes soared for a cease-fire in North African territory by Sunday.

Among the victims in today's outbreak were four postmen killed and three wounded. Harried officials accused the European Secret Army of desperately seeking to provoke strikes and major disturbances on the eve of peace. "We have no more patrol cars available to answer all calls," one police radio report said. Meanwhile, French headquarters for Algeria appeared confident that the army will succeed in keeping the tense situation in hand when a cease-fire is announced. But the command is not taking any chances on the loyalty of various field commanders.

Limit Supplies Informed sources said that the French army in Algeria has been permitted only 15 days of food and fuel supplies. This drastic reduction from the normal stocks which varied from a month to a three-month supply in all units was apparently meant to discourage officers from attempting to join forces with right-wing extremists. But the Moslem nationalists obviously believed that the end of their long battle against France and possibly the beginning of a new struggle against Algeria's Europeans was near at hand. They distributed tracts among Algeria's nine million Moslems urging them to avoid clashes with Europeans and to "demonstrate your joy within your own areas." President Charles de Gaulle's government approved the Algerian agreement last night after nearly four hours of discussion in one of the longest cabinet meetings since de Gaulle became president in 1958 and vowed to bring peace to the North African territory. Spells Out Terms The document, more than 100 pages long, spells out provisions for a cease-fire and steps for a self determination referendum which de Gaulle fully expects to decide for independence.

It also provides for future economic, cultural, and other cooperation between France and the new Algerian state and for guarantees for the European minority a key factor in the Algerian settlers' attitude toward any settlement. No amount of guarantees, however, was expected to placate die-hards in the Secret Army. French military authorities rushed last minute preparations for the violence expected to erupt with the announcement of a cease-fire. captain, though such a meeting could have occurred at the Battle of Monmouth. But the events set in motion by Washington after Huddy was hanged by Loyalists on April 12, 1782, stirred the capitals of Europe.

The issues which led to the American Revolution divided the residents of Monmouth County much as the Civil War was to divide the nation. Usually peaceful hamlets were stained with blood as supporters of the new republic raided the homes of neighbors loyal to the English king and the victims retaliated. Loyalists Hated Huddy One of the outstanding leaders of the militia was Capt. Joshua Huddy and his succe-s in the Continental cause made Huddy a hated name in the Loyalist homes of the county. In 1780, Huddv's home in Colts Neck had been besieged by a large force of British refugees, as the Loyalists also were known, and he was captured, only to escape when a militia party came to his aid as the raiders were boarding boats in the Navesink River.

The experience led Huddy to redouble his efforts in the Continental cause and there was feeling in the county that the raid on the blockhouse at Toms River on March 24, 1782, was made primarily to capture him. Huddy was in command of the artillery guard in the blockhouse, probably with no more than two dozen men, when the party of about 120 British troops and Loyalists made the attack. There was bitter fight WHISKY THIEF GETS HOXEY MIAMI, Fla. tm Leo A. Plummer, 50, pleaded guilty to a charge of shoplifting but said he had no intention of stealing a bottle of honey.

Richard Lippincott appeared with the following order: See ANGERED Page 19 No Traffic Problem Seen At New Park ASBURY PARK Kenneth H. Creveling, director of the state Division of Resource sees no traffic handicap to the opening of the new Sandy Hook State Park this spring. Mr. Creveling yesterday told the Rotary Club that the majority of visitors to the park would come from the north. He said plans to dualize Route 36 would amply take care of this traffic.

The speaker said the state's experience in operating Island Beach State Park during the past three years bore out the opinion that congestion to Sandy Hook would not be as great. "We had the same antagonism to the opening of Island Beach as we are receiving for Sandy Hook," Mr. Creveling reported. "But claims made by local residents that property values would be degraded and traffic would be intolerable have not been realized. Today the majority of the letters from the Island Beach area are complimentary.

We have used them as the basis for our plans to develop Sandy Hook." Among the plans for the new park mentioned by Mr. Creveling were the following: The state plans for a daily attendance of about during the non-bathing season; fishermen will be given the use of the entire park area; state fishing permits will be good at both Sandy Hook and Island Beach; r.o hunting will be permitted, and there will be parking for 800 cars.

To Deride March 8 The authority, headed by Mrs.

Katharine Eikus White, Red Bank, is expected to make a final decision at its meeting March 8. Plans for construction of an interchange at Red Hill road, on the boundary between Holmdel and Middletown townships, were announced at a press conference in November. The plans were well-received by Holmdel, Middletown, and county officials. Then, this month, the Hod Bunk Chamber's directors, on the recommendation of Mr. Kelly's committee, voted to protest against the project until a 'true cost picture is established." The chamber also questioned the need for the new interchange and objected to a proposed five-cent increase to 15 Special sale! 60 knit dresses, '4 price.

Loss than four hours after the news conference the White House made public a direct reply to Khrushchev. In it President K'pn. nedy expressed hope "that at a very early date our representatives may meet to discuss our ideas and yours in a spirit of practical cooperation." He added the United States would come up with "new and concrete proposals" for joint enterprises that could bo undertaken without delay. Made Offer Before Mr. Kennedy onened hi nmu conference with a statement noting that twice before he had offered the same sort of proposition Khrushchev advanced.

But the President called the Soviet Premier's move an encouraging sign for international cooperation. Mr. Kennedy was asked yestci-day whether he had any evidence that the Soviets were actually willing to engage in joint space explorations. He said, "We have seen no evidence that this kind of cooperation would t.ik-p nh I But he added, referring to Col. Glenn's successful orbiting, "We, I might say now, have more chips on the table than we did some time ago.

So perhaps the prospects are improving." He seemed to be suggesting that Khrushchev may now be more impressed with U.S. space explorations and may feel that the gap between the two great powers in this area has closed to the point where it would be profitable for the Soviet Union to consider modifying its own secrecy policy in order to permit cooperation. Powers Probe Under Way Mr. Kennedy also disclosed a special board of inquiry is d-termining whether U2 pilot Francis Gary Powers violated the contract under which he mads his ill-fated reconnaissance flight over Russia on May 1, i960. Government officials have interrogated Mr.

Powers in secret ever since he was released Feb. 10 in a prisoner exchange with the Russians. Mr. Kennedy said there was no evidence so far that Mr. Powers See ACCORD Page 2 Tra verso Elected BELMAR Daniel Traverso has been elected president of the Board of Education, replacing Frank Mihlon.

Freeholder Director Joseph C. Irwin said the new department, which he hopes to set up in a month, wll eliminate purchasing done by individual department heads.

Mr. Irwin estimated that about a third of the county budget of $10,159,019 is for purchases. Freeholders Will Control The new department will be directly under the jurisdiction of the freeholders, sitting as the pur chasing committee. The committee was established in the same resolution creating the department. "The persons responsible to the people of Monmouth County will be in a position to know and be held responsible," Mr.

Irwin said. He said a department head will be named in a short time from the present county staff and will take the job as an additional duty at a "very minor" increase in pay. He also announced that the freeholders are planning a change soon in the method of taking bids for materials, supplies, and work. The major feature will be cutting the time required to read the bids publicly. Officials Approve Both the new department and the bidding change, he said, have the approval of County Counsel Howard Roberts and County Auditor Armour S.

Hulsart. In another resolution, the Board appropriated $15,000 for the re construction of two Long Branch jetties, the North Long Branch Key Jetty at the Long Branch-Monmouth Beach line, and a jetty at the foot of Atlantic avenue. See COUNTY Page 2 Welfare Unit Starts War On Chiselers FREEHOLD The Monmouth County Welfare Board took action yesterday to cut its cost for welfare benefits where beneficiaries are eligible for social security benefits. The board instructed county Welfare Director John L. Montgomery to ask the federal social security director whether the board could be notified when its beneficiaries are given social security payments.

Mr. Montgomery explained that welfare payments are based on an applicant's total income, including social security payments. Often, he said, a person getting welfare payments later gets social security payments but never tells the board. "It's usually only by chance that we find out," Mr. Montgomery said.

One man, who got a large social security check covering retroactive payment to the time he was eligible, "went to Florida for a vacation and came back, without a cent," Miss Rhoda Southall, deputy welfare director, said.

"Representatives of the county and municipalities involved will be invited to speak for themselves," he said. Elsewhere in the letter, Mr. Tonti said that "representations have been made that there is no enthusiasm for this new interchange by municipal and county officials, as well as representatives of large companies located in the area."

The townsmen had hoped President Kennedy would ride through Higher Fare Seen as Bus Strike Ends NEWARK liPl The three-day strike against Public Service Coordinated Transport ended today, to the relief of a million bus-riders in New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania.

Buses rolled again at midnight, shortly after a new contract for 5,600 Public Service drivers and mechanics was ratified. The vote to accept the 25-month contract was 2,702 to 1,562, the Amalgamated Association of Street, Rail Motor Coach Employes, AFL-CIO, announced. Although the inconvenience of car pools, abnormally crowded roads, and jammed rail and alternate bus facilities was over, the bus-riding public was fared with the prospect of a fare increase. Public Service President Herbert E. Harper said the company plans to seek an immediate fare boost.

Public Service estimated that the 18-cent-an-hour raise and greater fringe benefits in the new contract would increase the company's expenses by about $3.8 million during the life of the agreement.

Glenn Helps Rescue Skin Diver GRAND TURK ISLAND, Bahamas UP! Astronaut John H. Glenn backed up his backup pilot in a sea rescue a day after Col. Glenn himself was pulled from the ocean.

Col. Glenn, brought to this Air Force tracking station for a physical examination and interviews about his flight around the globe, took part in the rescue of a skin diver yesterday. His backup pilot, M. Scott Carpenter, had been swimming with two unidentified skin divers who live on the island. One had dived to see how deep he could go without a supply of air.

Loses Consciousness The pilot accompanied him down and said the man apparently became unconscious at the 80-foot depth, on his way up from 110 feet. He could not succeed in giving him his mouthpiece for air and pulled him to the surface, where Col. Glenn, sitting in a boat, helped pull the man aboard. Col. Glenn was taking time out from physical examinations and giving details of his orbital flight to space administration officials.

During the afternoon he went swimming in the Atlantic, accompanied by two physician friends. Col. Glenn started the last half of interviews today based on several hundred questions while his memory is still fresh. Doctors also are taking a bit of his time with another blood test and an electrocardiogram. No 'Holidaf For Meters, Chief Rules ASBURY PARK In spite of what the tags on the parking meters say, drivers parking at curbside in the business district today still had to feed coins into the meters.

Deputy Police Chief Joseph C. Friedland said the signs, installed on the meters when the city parking ordinance was "a hodgepodge," became meaningless when the new city code was adopted. Some of the signs read, "No charge Sundays or Holidays." "The business district is in the 24-hour zone," he said. In this zone parking tickets can be issued anytime of the day or night when the violation red flag goes up. The only amnesty, Chief Friedland said, is from the two-hour limit which is imposed on weekdays.

Wayne Dumont, R-Warren. Sen. Dumont said last night a Senate bill which would again delay the effective date of the laws "is as dead as a doornail." The bill, sponsored by senators Anthony J. Grossi, D-Passaic, and Thomas F. Connery D-Glou-cester, would put oil the effective date of Chapter 51 until Jan.

1, 1964. The laws originally were to be effective this year but were delayed by the Legislature until 1963 to make the transition easier. As the law now stands, all counties are required by April 1, 1962 to set countywide assessment ratios ranging from 20 per cent to 100 per cent of tine value. Monmouth at True Value Monmouth County, along with Cape May and Hudson counties, began assessing at 100 per cent of true value last year. Unless the law is changed, all county tax boards must set their county ratios by April 1, 1962.

If they do not, their county ratio automatically becomes 50 per cent of true value. Once established, the ratios must remain in effect for a minimum of three years. Sen. Dumont, main architect of the assessment revision, said he opposed any further delays because municipalities have already been given a year to comply with the law.
