Restored Sultan
Sought By U. S.
By CHARLES M. MCCANN
Cuited Press Foreign Analyst
■ Tile United States lias lost no
| time in trying to get on friendly
I terms with Sidi Mohammed Ben
| Youssef, the newly restored Sultan
of Morocco.
President Eisenhower has sent
' him a warm personal message of
, t n'enlship. The Sultan in turn has
invited the President to visit Mr.
roeco.
Naturally nothing was said in
the exchange about the four very
valuable air bases which the t'liit-
t*d States has built in Morocco at
a cost of about .$.'172 million.
But the protection of those bases
under the new set up in Morocco,
is the reason behind tile prompt
American approach to the Sultan.
Kxpccls Homo Rule
Ben Youssef has left no doubt
that he experts France to give
Morocco a wide measure of home
role under the agreement by which
he was restored, after two years
in exile.
Also, he commented rather cas-
ually in Paris just before be re-
turned to Morocco Wednesday that
the United States negotiated di-
rectly with France in geting its
bases and did not consult Moroc-
cans.
His implication was that he
wants to negotate with the United
States for the continued mainte-
nap"o of the four, bit; strategic
backstops of the AllieM defense
organization in Europe.
tirig. (jen. Charles A. Helm,
commander of the bases, has said
of the largest one, which is at
Nouasseur, 20 miles from the big
port of Casablanca.
"Strategically it is one of the
most important bases outside of
the United States."
liases Completed
The bases have been completed
within the last few months.
Little has be-?n published about
them, but they are now ready toserved
send B-36 atomic bomber planes cx;|e
against the Soviet Union in case
the Kremlin decide* on war.
Fortunately, the United States!
got away to a good start in ad-!
vance of Sultan Ben Youssef's
restoration.
Julius C. Holmes, who has been
in and out of the foreign service!
since 1925, was named minister to
Morocco last May. He was also
made United States diplomatic
agent in the international zone of
Tangier, bordering on Morocco,
and made his headquarters there.
Holmes visited Rabat, the Mo
roccan capital, occasionally. But
he pointedly avoided visiting Sidi
Mohammed Moulay Arafa, who

jand mites in the poultry house.
