A correspondent of the Associated Press
talked with NJ. Revolt, head Of the French
delegation. NJ. Revolt pointed out that
the geographical proximity and the ex-
tent of the Algerian frontier contributed
largely to establish the special position
OF France In Morocco. He spoke on the
quite natural special position which the
United States occupied toward South and
Central America. Only recently. he said
this special interest had been shown to-
ward Cuba and Panama. and at present
1t was being exercised In the case OF the
relations OF France with Venezuela.
"You can readily judge from the Amer
lean standpoint said M. Revolt. how
the proximity OF France to Morocco gives
us a natural and legitimate concern as to
that country"
The United States, he said, would be
the power having a chief interest concern
Ing the future of the country Just across
Its borders, and that France had Just
such an interest In Morocco, which was
on the other side Of the French border.
