nounced that the Sultan no
longer was the religious chief
of state. Thus, as far as the
people led by ell Glaoui's
Pashas and Caids were con-
cerned, the Sultan was
stripped of half his authority.
The French stepped in at
that point to restrain ell
Glaoui. But the custer move
had gone too far. El Glaoui's
and the Sultan's partisans
rioted over possession of the
Sultanate.
In Paris, the French cab
met decided the Sultan must
go. Tanks surrounded the
imperial palace at Rabat and
the Sultan was told to pack.
He was Immediately shipped
to exile in Corsica, and el
Glaoui's choice, Moulay Mo-
hammed ben Arafa, was pro-
claimed Sultan. The new Sui
tan signed the reform" dele
eating his powers to a council.
The U. S. Dilemma
This was the quarrel which
the Arab-Asian bloc attempted
to bring before the Security
Council last week.
To support either France or
the nationalists on the inde-
pendence question was impos-
sible for the United States.
If we sided with France, we
would have lost frie n d S
throughout the Middle and Far
East-an area in which we are
in need of anti-CommmiSt
support. What's more, the
Moroccan nationalists were ex-
pected to riot again if the de-
cision went against them. AS
we have vital air bases scat
tered through that country,
our defense would be menaced
by a Moroccan uprising.
If we sided with the nation
alists France would be out
ragged. Morocco is the pearl Of
the French Empire and the
cornerstone of her North Afri-
can possessions. She would as
soon lose the Arc de Triomphe
as Morocco. There is a strong
possibility France would pull
her troops out of Indo-China
and send them to Morocco II
the loss of that country were
imminent. That would leave
the United States with a gap
to fill in the Far East.
So America had to dodge a
decision. Last year, when the
same issue came before the
General Assembly we were neu-
tral, but neutral, the French
claimed, on the side of the ma
tionalists. We went only so
far as to support a pious reso-
luton suggesting France and
the nationaliSts get together
and talk over their differences.
Earlier last year our neutrality
took the form of an abstention
on a vote to take up a similar
French -Tunisian question in
the Security Council. The mo-
ton lost.
Last week we were again
neutral, but more on the side
of France. We voted not to
take up the issue in the Secu-
rity Council The vote was five
to five, with seven votes needed
for the motion to carry.
In the meantime. this coun-
try was doing its real work be-
hind the scenes. The French
cabinet was studying a new set
of reforms of undiSclosed ma
ture. We we're using our inf1u-
ence to promote changes that
would be acceptable to most
Moroccans.

ticularly interested in the in
dependence issue. They don't
know much about it. There are
some natives who have a per-
Sonal stake in French rule and
therefore oppose the national
lists.
Generally speaking. the
Arabs are nationalists; the
Berbers, the original settlers in
Morocco, are diSinterested or
pro-French. (The Arabs con-
quered Morocco in the sew
enth century, Both Arabs and
Berbers are Moslems, and their
political differences seem to be
geographical rather than ra-
cial. The Arabs live in the

conjecture until the treaty is
forthcoming A four-power
group known as the Austrian
Treaty Deputies has already
met 261 times to conclude a
treaty, and failed. The Coun-
Gil of Foreign Ministers has
similarly devoted part of 33
sessions to the Austrian treaty
without success.
The Short Form
In desperation the three
Western powers proposed an
abbreviated form of the treaty
which stipulated that the oc-
ping powers ''relinquish to
Austria all property, real and
personal, of whatever descrip-
ton held or claimed by them
as German assets or as war
booty in Austria" This Rus
STA fatty rejected.
Some observers see Russia 5
recent "be kind to Austrians"
campaign, which ended mail
censorship and eaSed travel
restrictions in the Soviet zone,
as an indication that the
U. S. S. r. is preparing to
offer Austria a peace treaty.
Others warn that it may be a
move to take some of the sting
out of Soviet refusal to sign
a treaty. One State Depart
ment authority regarded the
minor concessions" as "a
means of getting a lot of good
will cheaply."
Another PIeo
If the West ever can get the
Soviet Union into another
Austrian treaty deputie S
meeting, maybe the true So
Wet intentions can be ascer-
tanned. The West has now
agreed to abandon the "short
draft, treaty if the Soviet
Union wishes and is prepared
to accept any treaty which
would insure Austria's politi-
cal and economic independ-
ence." Once more la st
Wednesday the Big Three
asked for a four power for
eign ministers meeting to dis
cuss Germany and Austria.
But there is as little hope as
ever that the Russians will
take any meaningful action to
free Austria.

OTTAWA.-Ten years ago
almost to the day stood under
a canyon wall in some of the
widest country in North Amer
ica-in the Mackenzie Noun
tains, in Canada's Northwest
Territories - and watched
while men worked around the
clock building an oil pipeline
to Alaska.
The Canol Project, long
since abandoned. cost about
$3.50 million. 1t was Uncle
Sans insurance against Japa-
nese submarines blocking the
tanker route to Alaska and
immobilizing defense forces
there by cutting off oil and
gasoline supplies.
The six-inch line was laid in
record time by a force of 5000
men. They started at the re-
mote Canadian oil field at
Norman Wells, on the Mac
kenzie River 100 miles south
of the Arctic Circle, and
pierced the rugged mountains
to the Alaska highway. Then
they followed the highway to
Fairbanks, Alaska.
AS it turned out. the pipe
line was never needed. Gen.
MacArthuT's blows in the
South Pacific forced the Japs
to withdraw from the Aleutian
Islands, and the tanker route
was never cut. After the war
Canol was abandoned. Much
of the pipe was Salvaged, and
the refinery at WhitehorSe in
the Yukon was dismantled and
moved south to Edmonton.
New Plan
Now, in the event of an
other war, Russian subma-
rines would pose a new threat
to the tanker route to Alaska.
So the American and Ca
madam governments have
reached agreement on the
construction of a new pipeline
to Fairbanks.
Canol isn't to be revived. 1t
would be physically feasible,
but not militarily so. The
source of supply at Norman
Wells is within easy range of
Soviet bombers, and one raid
might knock that oil field out
of production for months.

He, like Bullock, was unable
to explain his excess income

probe is complete.
The Beach case presents
more difficulties than the Bull

because Beach did file returns

Metropolitan Scene
Bullock Retirement Paw
Is the Real Stake Now
By John w. Thompson, Jr.

You can look for the Bull
lock case to end in the courts.
The real stake for which
the erstwhile police inspector
and his attorneys are fighting
is the retirement money.
District Court Judge Holtz-
off gave their cause a valuable
assist by ruling in effect that.
regardless of any trial board
consideration and subsequent
action by the Commissioners,
they could not do Bullock out
of his retirement because he
had contributed toward it. It
was therefore sort of like in
surance.
Dangerous Precedent?
District officials have seen
in the Holtzof opinion the
dangerous implication that any
policeman who reaches retire
ment age and is qualified to
receive pension may thumb
his nose at his superiorS with
out real penalty. They see this
as a threat to police discipline.
They are, therefore, already
at work on an appeal from
the HoltZoff ruling which
would seek to give Bullock only
the money he has contributed
plus interest.
In addition to the fact that
the District may we'll take the
case to court on this issue, Bull
locks attorneys may appeal
there from any decision the
Commissioners make on the
recommendation of the special
trial board that Bullock be
given dishonorable discharge.
Although the trial board did
not recommend it, some police
sources have indicated that by
busting Bullock back to the
rank of private and retiring
him the city heads could re-
duce his retirement benefits
substantially without danger
of serious legal challenge.
The evidence that Bullock
is unfit to hold police Office is
as clear as the problem of his
retirement is confused. He re-
fused to explain $4,000 excess
income above salary over a
three-year period and, since
his failure to pay District in
come taxes for the same period
was under investigation, re-
fused even to say where he
lived.
Next step is Bullock's oral
appeal to the Commissioners
from the trial board findings.
The appeal is set for Wednes-
day.
