Casa blanca July delayed
The trouble IN North Africa, be-
tween Arabs and Westerners. can
often be laid to the policies of ira
ditional United States ally-France
Here in Morocco. trouble between
the East and West is at minimum
mainly because France has granted
per ap begrudginglyi indepen-
dence to Morocco at last.
For this reason, Arabs in Morocco
do not have the fierce, living and
traditional grievance that motivates
them in Algeria, which Franc e
claims as part Of territorial
France, as an example And death
from Arab hands is rare in Morocco
these days The last American killed
was in 1856 and only infrequent
flareups break the peaceful scene
where the United States maintains
q number Of mighty airbases
Because the French still hold the
economic strings and because they
are the oldtime colonial rulers,
there is no love for them in Morocco
even though this Arab nation is now
independent. But violence is held TO
A minimum.
From the American viewpoint.
Moroccan independence might be a
blessing. since 1t has worked against
terrorism and because U. $. negoti-
ators may be able to work out a
better military bases rental pro-
gram with the Arabs than they have
been able to work out with the
French. One thing, for instance,
which gals many American mill
tary men is the requirement Of the
French that French troops com
mand every v s. base.
This il carried to such an eX-
IRENE that French troops are quar-
tered on U S. airbases and French
