AlSecilas, April 3.-After plenary
session lasting until 6 o'clock Saturday
evening, the conference on Moroccan
reforms registered complete accord
and appointed committee to embody
this accord in a formal protocol The
contamination of the conference was
announced in the following official
communications:
The conference has terminated its

the result of the conference on Moroc

The agreement was hailed yesterday
with satisfaction by officials and by the
public press, which was weary of the
prolonged controversy and the disturb
ing possibilities of war. The view in
official quarters is that France secures
fair degree of success on the prin

bank. However, it is recognized that
neither France nor Germany has Sc
cured all OF it's wants
Germany Stands Alone.
Berlin, April 3. = The gains and

pose to be consulted when other pow
ers are arranging the future of weak
states is now regarded as established.
In face of the diplomatic resistance
of France, Great Britain, Italy, Spain
