Algeria
Charles De Gaulle Wins Algeria Referendum
In France and Algeria, millions go to the polls, to vote on De Gaulle's proposals to solve the Algerian crisis. Despite massive abstentions by the right-wing opposition, and by Moslem nationalists, the votes in favor of De Gaulle’s plan add to a clear majority, less than the resounding vote of confidence he sought, but sufficient to be a clear mandate in his favor.

Morocco
African Summit Meeting
Neutralist leaders of five African nations including Egypt's Nasser, Nkrumah of Ghana, and King Mohammed V of Morocco with Algerian rebel leader Ferhat Abbas also present, meet in Casablanca to map joint action for common goals in the future of the Continent.
