SOCIAL CONFLICT

NORTH AFRICAIN THE HOT SANDS OF NORTH AFRICA, BURNING MOSLEM NATIONALISM COLLIDED HEAD-ON WITH DETERMINED FRENCH COLONIALISM. THE TRIBESMEN OF MOROCCO SLEW HUNDREDS AND WERE SLAIN BY THE HUNDREDS IN RETURN; NEITHER SIDE TROUBLED UNDULY TO SPARE THE INNOCENT. THE OCCASION FOR THE BLOODSHED WAS LOCAL IN NATURE BUT WORLDWIDE IN ITS IMPLICATIONS: WHO SHOULD BE SULTAN OF MOROCCO—A FRENCH PUPPET OR THE MAN THE MOROCCANS THEMSELVES WANTED AS THEIR IMAM ?DEEPER THAN THIS RAN STRONGER CURRENTS: FRANCE'S PRIDE OF EMPIRE, THE MOROCCANS' LONGING FOR INDEPENDENCE. IN THIS CONFUSED SITUATION, THE NATION THAT BROUGHT MODERN PROGRESS TO A STERILE LAND WAS MADE TO SEEM OLDFASHIONED, AND A BACKWARD PEOPLE'S ASPIRATIONS COMMANDED THE SYMPATHIES OF THOSE WHO LOOK TO THE FUTURE.
