There is something to be learned
from the recent Swing around the
circle by the President of France
through Morocco. 1t includes visits TO
MOhammedan holy places near which,
, few years ago, Christian infidelS"
were not permitted. Smiles of well
come met this French party where
formerly all Europeans received scowls
or worse. 1t seems that the history
of Algeria is being repeated and that
French economic penetration is prov
ing a success in this anomalous cOun-
try, whose Arabic name means the
extreme West" but which has har-
bored more tenaciOusly than Egypt or
NesOpotamia the flavor of the East.
Until decade ago Morocco scOrned
western civilization and had succeeded
in keeping itself at least millennium
and half behind the times. MOslem
fnnaticism ran riot. Jews and Chris
tians were treated with mixture of
contempt. suspicion and hostility. Be
cause, as a result of pressure by the
European powers, Christians were per-
mitted tC own land in Tangier, MOrOc-
cans referred to it as dog town"
and one MOslem map-maker insisted
on leaving il off the map of Morocco.
Relatively few Europeans lived in the
country outside of Tangier and few
other coast cities; and in some of
the towns considered holy, II was as
much as a non-Moslem foreigners life
was worth to appear.
