report in Paris said the new command post was at Blida a town of 62000 population 27 miles southwest of Algiers In Paris De Gaulle indicated in a speech to the Council of State that he was prepared to take strong action "Now even if we have not finished with crises and whatever the difficulties may be nothing is so important as to assure whatever happens the legitimacy of the state" he said "In my
