MOROCCO WANTS INDEPENDENCE
Recd. 7.30 p.m. New York, Sept. 28. The National Party of the French protectorate of Morocco made a formal bid for Moroccan independence in a memorandum submitted today to United Nations. The memorandum, which claims to represent the views of 3,000,000 Moroccans, asserts: “The once great Sovereign State of Morocco, which enjoyed freedom and independence for thirteen centuries, has been deprived of all rights and eislaved by the French.” Morocco became a French protectorate in 1912.
