French forces in Algeria were ordered to cease at 6 p.m. all offensive operations against the rebels they have been fight- ing for almost seven years. 2. Algerian rebel chieftain Ahmed ben Bella was flown from a fortress prison on the lle d'Aix to a site closer ta the peace talks in this Lake Geneva resort city. Pairs said its cease-fire or- ders would remain in effect for one month and would then be reconsidered in the light of de- velopments at the peace talks. Ben Bella was taken off the island in the Bay of Biscay by helicopter along with his com- panions Hocine ait Ahmed and Mohamed Khidder. All three had been seized in 1956 when [their Moroccan airliner en route to Tunisia was intercepted by |French fighter planes over the [Mediterranean and forced to land at Algiers. The improved conditions or- 'dered for the three men will allow them with the rebel delegation in Ge- FRENCH GUARD PEACE PARLEY olence mists to make contact neva by telephone. The long awaited peace ne- gotiations opened here in a se- cluded hotel guarded by hun- dreds of armea policemen. The insurgent delegates were brought across Lake Geneva from the Swiss side by heli- copter. Police surrounded the landing area and the grounds of the Hotel du Parc where Louis Joxe, French minister for Al. gerian affairs, had his first ses- sion with Belkacem Krim, chief delegate of the Algerian pro- visional movement. Joxe opened. the talks by stating the Fren view on Al- geria's future, including Presi. dent de Gaulle's proposal for an independent country in close association with France. The placid atmosphere of this alpii.> resort town was in sharp contrast with Algeria where right-wing extremists launched bo._bing attacks in major cen- tres to protest the opening of the peace parley. Krim, twice sentenced to death in his absence by the French, crossed the lake in the leading helicopter and for the first time set foot on the soil of metropolitan France. The talks originally were due to open April 7 but were put off after the Algerian National Liberation Front (military arm of the provisional government) objected to French plans to hold parallel meetings with a rival la few miles north of South {Ottawa.
