He suggested that motorists take
their complaints to the city pur-

an order six months ago for an ade-

Because of the changing in park
ing has necessitated many more
miles of painting, he said. 1t is i'm
possible to do this with the present

FRANCE MAY TAKE
HAND IN REVOLT
IN NORTH AT RIGA
Failure of Spanish to Put
Down InSurreCtion Is
Cited,

By JHItcn Press
PARIS, Sept. 3.-The possibility
Of French intervention in Morocco
is seen here today as a result Of the
serious setback given Spanish armies
which for two years have been wag-
ing unsuccessful warfare against the
hostile Riff tribesmen.
Diplomatic authorities are frankly
concerned over the situation in the
Spanish Moroccan domain. There
is every indication that suppression
of the native revolt will require a
greater military effort than the
Spanish people are prepared to sup
rort.
French officials believe that in
view of SPANS failure to preserve
order, revision of the treaties of 1905
and 1911, under which Spain Occu
pied the country. might be the best
solution. A French protectorate is
contemplated.
1t is admitted, however, that
France and England could hardly
initiate negotiations. Such an
action would be sure to cause
friction in Madrid where the present
government, headed by the dictator
Primo Rivera. naturally would not
admit responsibility since this would
mean the end of it's political life.
Some sources, however, think it is
not impossible that France may be
forced to bring up the question, ask
ing British support. France is
directly interested in Spanish arms.
II the Riff tribesmen eventually win
clean-cut victory France believes
the next step would be an effort to
expel France from Africa.
