|Rk If RICAN
POPULACE
French, Spanish and Riff
Delegations Gather for
Peace Discussion.

ORAN, Algeria, April 1G.-P)-
Failure of the French Spanish and
Riffian delegates to make their first
actual official contact at Oudida to-
day. as scheduled, created an unfav-
orablc impression in this great French
North African seaport which, being
close to the scene of operations.
kcenly feels the effects of the state
of war in Morocco.
The disappointment was caused by
feeling that the preliminary non
official conversations with the Riff
fan delegates have not reached such
an advanced stage as the population
had been given TO understand for
the last few days, and that an ac-
cord Of the French and Spanish view
points had only been partly realized.
WANT BREAKUP AVOIDED.
Officials. as well as the rank and
file of the citizens here. however. are
reconciled TO the pOStpOnement until
Monday by their intense desire that
the negotiations shall be carried TO
the successful conclusion.
They feel that a breakup at the
last moment would lower the Franco
Spanish position in public opinion.
while Abd-El-Krim would regain
much Of his lost prestige with the
tribcsmen.
Residents in close contact with the
Riffian chief declare that Ahd-El-
Krim could pose as having treated
with France and Spain as 4 belli-
gcrcnt on equal terms. and claim
that he had NO been defeated. in
asmuch as he had refused to accept
the Franco Spanish chief overrures.
DELEGATES GATHER.
He would then be able to ask his
followers for one final military e.
fort. which with one or two loc'd
successes could promise them much
more favorable terms than are now
offered.
Generals Simon and Mougin have
gone to Taourit. about 90 miles west
Of Oudjda. where they will meet the
Riffian delegates today. The French
and Spanish delegations compete viii
not be assembled at Oudjda until TO-
morrow about noon.
The Caid Haddou. personal repre-
sentative of Abd-El-Krim. is now at
Oudida. having journeyed from Krim'S
headquarters in an airplane. The re-
mainder Of the Riffian delegation vii!
appear Immediately upon conclusion
of the armistiCe.

tent. The Delaware State Library Commission and the public library de- partment of the State Department of Education of Vermont use automobiles equipped with bookshelves as a means of distributing books to people living in rural communities. The Iowa Li- brary Association has recently equip ned a book truck and started 1t on tour of the State for the purpose of de monstratiug this service. Birmingham Alabama Clarksdale, Mississippi. Detriot. Michigan; Durham, North Carolina; Elkhart. Logansport, and Rochester. Indiana; Harrisburg.

 The success of the plan depends largely, upon having a person ln charge of the trucks who knows books and is interested in ehildren's and adults reading. He must be able t1 select books which will appeal to the readers and be enthusiastic for 5he work he Is doing.
