NAZI PENETRATION.
SPREAD TO FRENCH MOROCCO. LONDON, April 4. There is no longer any doubt that the Germans have tightened their grip on French Morocco, says the Lisbon correspondent of "The Times." There may not be many Germans there, but they are working in close - association with the French authorities and are virtually using the territory as a military base. Travellers have seen seven or eight Dornier bombers on the Casablanca aerodrome, with appropriate fighter escorts. These machines almost every day set out north or south on what may well be operational flights. About 20 German officers are stationed at Casablanca. Germans are also stationed in all coastal towns from Mogador to the Tangier frontier. German propaganda unexpectedly is directed more against \he French than the British. It dwells on the weakness of the French regime and the consequent desirability of fuller collaboration with the new order.
