Morocco Accord Averts War Yet Marks German Victory
Berlin reports a Franco German Morocco accord praised as a major diplomatic success by both sides. Premier Rouvier told the French Chamber that the agreement preserves France's rights while recalling legations at Tangier. The notes stress sovereignty of the Sultan, Moroccan independence, and France’s special frontier protection interests.
