The Mixup Over Tangier.

On the northern coast Of Africa, at
the entrance to the Strait of Glib
raltar. is the city of Tangier, regard
ing which LLOYD GEORGE and Premier
PoINcARE conferred at their recent
meeting in London. The disposition
Of Tangier Is not problem which
developed with the war or after, for
1t is an old contention, with its origin
deeply rooted in racial affiliations and
political aspirations. 1t was easier to
divide Morocco into zones and decide
upon their administration than 1t
was to agree upon a control or
Government for this one town.
The reason for this Is obvious.
Tangier from It's position and its
natural defenses and spacious har-
Dor dominates the entrance to the
Strait Of Gibraltar and thus the en-
trance to the Mediterranean Sea from
the Atlantic. Lying opposite the
southern point Of Spain. the Spanish
Government is naturally opposed to
any other European Power occupy
ing or administering 1t. It is not
modern gunshot distant, across the
Strait, from the great British fort
ress and stronghold of Gibraltar, and
1t was originally part Of the Mo-
roccan zone over which France now
exercises control.
Tangier was one point in Morocco
In which Germany In the tense days
Of international politics in the early
part Of this century manifested an
interest that was especially irritat-
ing to France. AS the result of one
of these diplomatic clashes the Con-
ference of Algeciras was held In 1906,
q police force was organized for the
city and its vicinity and the control
Of the customs Of the port was taken
over by European Powers.
Apart from it's political impor-
tance Tangier has an economic and
commercial interest. 1t is the near
est African seaport to Europe and
it Is the Moroccan city which mod
ern Europe knew earliest because It
was a diplomatic headquarters as far
back as the eighteenth century. 1t
has to-day large population Of Eu-
ropeans, especially Of French and
Spaniards, and with the building of
some good modern hotels has drawn
considerable number Of tourists
and winter visitors.
There has been much dissatisfac-
tion with the international admins
tration because of the difficulties Il
placed in the way of builders who
would improve the housing facilities
OF the place and the sanitary condi-
tion. The much needed develop
ment of the harbor has been held up
from year to year greatly to the det-
riment OF the city's commerce. An
instance of the inability of the inter
national control to agree on any
point is mentioned by a consular
agent, who says that when a street
was to be named the French sug-
gested Hugo, the Spaniards Cervan
tes and the British Shakespeare A
compromise resulted in the thorough
fare being called Adam street.
The matter comes up now through
the desire of the interested nations
for final adjustment of their claims
and through the fact that Great Brit
ain seeks to maintain her supervision
over the Suez Canal. France insists
that her control In Morocco should
include Tangier. Spain asks that the
limits Of her zone on the Medter-
ranean coast should be extended to
embrace Tangier and the adjoining
territory. Neither nation is In any

PREM|ERS REACH
VAGUE AGREEMENT
Result of Chat Between
Lloyd George and Poincare
Subject of Speculation.
BY HIRAM X, MODERWELL.

BY HIRAM X. MODERWELL.
~ Gable to The Star and the Chicago Daily
News. Copyright. 1922.
LONDON, June "a. The "cigar
chat" recently between Primo Min
lister Lloyd George and Premier
Poincare ended as usual in complete
agreement The completeness of
the agreement nobody, of course, be-
iieves, but that there is sincere re-
newal of effort to work together
there can be no question. Much
more was said. of course, than ap-
pears in the official report. 1t would
seem that the only substantial thing
gained is a. French delay in applying
coercion to Germany and, second, in
breaking completely away from the
conference at The Hague and enter
ing into independent negotiations
with Russia.
Lloyd George now has another
breathing space to enforce his pol
icies in the expectation that time
Will teach the French the necessity
of moderation toward Germany and
Russia. But the essential struggle,
but a skirmish, is between the two
theories as to how Europe should be
rebuilt and administered.
French For Dictatorship.
The French theory is that this
should be done by sort of benevo-
lent dictatorship on the part of the
victorious powers. The British
theory is that it should be done by
two balancing groups of powers
military coercion, although both may
lead TO it).
These theories naturally harmonize
with the particular interests Of
France and Great Britain: respective
ly. France would be unable to main
| tain her present position of military
and diplomatic pre-eminence without
an alliance with'a firSt-class power.
Great Britain is the only one avail
able. Great Britain. however. favors
the balance of power theory, because
| it would enable her to remain secure
without maintaining large army.
Great Britain also needs prosper
! Gus Europe to furnish markets for
| its manufactured goods.
| Seek Basis of Stability.
Briefly. Europe is attempting to find
some basis of stability after the fail
| league of all nations. From the
American point of view it is a Ques-
ton which would be less dangerous
| % a league of strong nations to con-
! troll the, weak or (2) two leagues of
strong nations to control each other.

| the reintegration of all Europe, ac-
cording to the British theory. Bal
ancing the French group, composed
/ of France, the little entente nations
i and Poland, there is arising a
shadowy group, including Great Brit
ain, Italy. Germany and probably
Russia. Great Britains fear of one
Napoleonic power on the continent
explains her unwillinGneSs to allow
Germany to be crushed and her pref
erence for the soviets rather than the
chaos which she believes would fol-

At present the struggle between

They appear to detached observers

1t may be truthfully said there is
nothing artificial or insincsre In the
popularity the prince commands

were the words on the welcoming
banners hung across the streets

The prince is to have two or three
months complete rest from, all sorts
of official functions. The public
thinks he has earned this vacation
by his strenuous and undoubtedly
dangerous tour of official duty. But
his return brings to the front another
topic, and it is generally suggested
that the next duty the prince owes
his country is to get married. The
belief has crystallized that he will
marry an English girl, as, for one
reason, the field of selection from the
royal families of Europe has been
greatly narrowed by the war, which

should be permitted to make his own
free choice instead of having his mar

On the homeward voyage the prince
had distinctly good time. Although
it was arranged for him to take his
meals in his private cabin, he pre-
ferred the officers mess and usually
went there. inviting different officers
to sit beside him so as to get ac-
-quatnted with them. He spent sew
eral evenings at the midshipmen's
mess, where he could associate with
men of about his own age.
