The bone of contention is the con tr6l of the city of Tangier in Mo rocco. That doesn’t sound very important. but if you will get out a map you will see that w tip of Morocco juts out northward until only a narrow strip of water separates it from Gib- raltar. British Control Now “Gib,” that rocky point at the south of Spain, has for a hundred years been in British hands. In the old days its cannon dominated the narrow waters. « France never relished this, Spain | didn’t like it. Back in the early nineteen. hun- dreds, France and Gefmany were both looking hungrily at Morocco with its vast resources. The French gutgeneraled Germany and got the upper hand. Since the ,war, with Germany smashed, the French have become entirely dominant. Nominally, Morocco has sultan, and.'the French are ‘his advisers, Really, Morocco .is a French colony, to be more and moré absorbed into the French system. But from early days the Spanish laid claim to a “sphere of influence” on the northérn coast, Only Tan- gier was excluded. Up to now it has been a sort 6? internationally governed city. The Moors rule it under. the uidance of # French, British and Spanish officers. Put dyein wants Tangier for its Own. It would: then have a setoff Hwvattar, On the other hand, the French say Tangier should be restored to its real master, the sul- i tan of Morocco, Which, as the English say, is pure “eye-wash.” Restored to the sultan, Tangier would soon be a French Gib- raltar. The French already have the world’s biggest army. They are al- ready talking about building a big submarine fleet. They already have so predominant a place in the air that the alarmed British are increas- airplanes. Now, if the French camjé:d in Tangier, they would have a ‘place where they could erect huge fortl- fications with high-power cannon They would have a jumping-off place for their airplanes, have a lair for their submarines.
