and tbs Tadla hinterland will in,erpose
q square block Of French territory be-
tween northern and southern Morocco,
between the capitals Of Fee and Mo-
rocco City. From the Atlantic at Casa
blanca across the Atlas beyond Tadla
and then through Tsfilet To the end ~
the Algerian railroad system NJ Colomb
Bechar. or at Igh. to which the railroad
is soon IN go. there will stretch an in
terror highway along which behind the
screen Of the Atlas the French will
be able TO move their armies and by
which they can provision their troops.
Apparently the meaning ut this latest
French advance has not been misunder-
stood in Berlin. for the laies, dispatches
announce that in Difference to German
objection the French have decided not
to pursue further their present campaign
in th- Tadla; hut there Il no suggestion
that Tadla itself will he surrendered.
Indeed, the assertion that so long ~
Tadla Offers refuge to mnrauding bands
the peace Of the Shawia Is menaced can
not easily be disputed. and Theoretically
AT least the presence Of the French in the
Shawia is only in the interest of order.
Doubtless with very little European
advert isement the city OF Tadla will be
transformed into French post and the
road from Casablanca extended Ia II.
Meanwhile behind the Atlas the opera
tions which are here permitted by the
terms Of the Algeciras act will bc pushed.
To-day the French are At DOu Denib in
the Wady CHR. The road to Taiilet Is
less than a hundred miles long and the
next French move will inevitably be to
Taflet. Once this region is garrisoned
then a little advance from Tadla across
the mountains, and three lines ol French
expansion, from the Atlantic by the
Wady I'm er Rebia, from the Mediter-
ranean along the Muluya and from the
edge Of the desert by Colomb Bechar
and Tafilet, will meet.
Prevented by the German interference
which eliminated at AlgeCiras from
absorbing Morocco al a single step, the
French have plainly resumed the slow
and no less sure method Of piecemeal
annexation. In five years they have ac-
quired Figuig. Tuat and che right bank
Of the Muluya. Before the year Is over
they will be at Tafilet This final step
will give them all Morocco south OF the
Grand Atlas and east Of the Draa. Sub
sequently. when the garrisons at Tada
and Tafilet are able to cooperate, the
French can decide whether IN turn
south and occupy the region between
the I'm or Rebia and the Tensift and
garrison Morocco City. or go north 10
Mekinez and Fez The attitude Of Ger
many will probably influence this de-
cision, but it seems fair TO conclude that
German opposition can AT most post

4 New Campaign in Morocco.

Some weeks ago THE SUN described
AZ considerable length the rapid fashion
m which the French are pushing west
from Algeria int the adjacent regions Of
Morocco. Nv successive steps they have
seized one post after another between
the mouth of the Muluya and the region
Of the Mady CHR until at the present
tune they effectively occupy the right
bank of the Muluva from the region Of
the high plateaux in Morocco To the
Mediterranean South Of the plateaux
the advance has been little less rapid,
and the oases Of the Tahlet, which would
in effect prolong the line Of the Muluya.
are still without French garrisons.
The latest dispatches To the French
newspapers describing the recent cam
paign Of the French forces Of occupation
IN the Shawia district along the Atlantic
coast Of Morocco are therefore of pecu-
liar contemporary interest, since they
reveal the fact that there IL here in
the West a corresponding activity. In

that the recent operations IN western
Morocco marked the beginning Of an ef.
fort 20 extend French lines east and west
