Sweden to Quit Liquor Rationing
Swedes have the reputation of being pow
4 erful drinkers, both of coffee and hard
r liquors American Swedes, that is. One
. ', reason may , be that over in Sweden hey
have had a rationing system on liquor pur-
chases for over 40 years. Hard liquor was
. sold only in government stores, and one's
purchase ration was strictly limited. As for
beer that was sold at pharmacies on doctors
I prescriptions, save for a 2.8 per cent product
available at restaurants.
Sweden has its counterpart of our liquor-with-meals
tolerance,' save that in Sweden
a person has to order a meal to get a drink of
hard liquor. Here the only requirement is
: that the bar double as a restaurant. In
Sweden the bibulous might go from dining
place to dining place just to get drinks, never
touching the food. A venerable joke in Swe
den has been about the same meal served to
- a half dozen people in the course of an eve-
: Tiing.
-' Well. Sweden is changing. It is dropping
its rationing of liquors. After Oct. 1 the
Swedes can buy as much liquor as they, want
"0 in the government stores, at government
prices which are freighted heavily with
- taxes. It will be interesting to observe what
.'effect the change will have on Swede sobrie-
ty, whether the new liberty will be abused or
J, not. It is another example, however, of re-
treat from controlsthough the time spread
."was nearly half a century.
GRIN AND BEAR IT By Lichty
What's Out Of a Name?
Not all the border strife is between .Israel
and Egypt! Down on Coos Bay thet rivalry
between the cities of North Bend and Coos
Bay, nee Marshfield has broken out in a new
place. West Coast Airlines serves jthe; dis
trict out of the splendid airport developed by
the government during the war. The stop
is' designated North Bead-Coos Bay. It lies'
within North Bend and is governed by "the
North Bend City Council which has passed
a resolution calling for the deletion of Coos
Bay from j the hyphena ed name. This was
forwarded to the Civil Aeronautics; Board.
The Coos Bay-Chamber of Commerce (of
.which Howard Maple now is manager) sup
ported pts officers in protesting the proposed
deletion. That provoke some hot argument
at a meeting of the directors in Coquille.i
The dpat serves to kep alive the local loy
alties which have prevented a merger of the
two cities! No blood letting will result; ind

tion may be, the stop will still be Coos" Bay

Conduct Road
Traffic Count
Marion County Engineer John
Anderson will make a traffic
count on a Lake Labish area road
which property owners want the
county to pave.
The paving was requested Fri
day by 14 property owners who
appeared before the county
court! The road extends from
Lee's corner to a junction with
Highway 99E. '
Residents of the area said the
school bus will not travel the
road due to its rough condition.
Another complaint by the dele
gation was that the road, which
is about a mile and a half long,
had not been graded this sum
mer. County Engineer John Ander
son replied that it is impractical
to do grading work during the
summer because of the dust.
The delegation indicated they
would reiterate their request

Morocco-'We Have Made This Country'
7
I Stewart jlp
By STEWART ALSOP
RABAT, jMorocco "It is neces
sary to kiMw a Mussulman." said
the colonel, in the careful voice
of one instructing children." "It
is necessary to recall that a Mus
sulman who kills
an infidel goes
straight to Par
adise. It is need
ful only for an
agitator to call '
upon them to kill
in the name of
Allah, and the
Mussulman
crowd becomes
absolutely sav
age, although
they mav later briefly regret
the atrocities they have commit
ted. Miissulmen are like that,
even thej most evolved."
The speaker was Col. le
Boeuf, a retired French army
officer iho heads a semi-clandestine
j movement known as
-Presence Francaise . here in
Rabat. : Presence Francaise is
dedicated to maintaining at all
costs the French position in Mo
rocco. It counts the downfall
f the 'moderate-minded Resident-General,
Gilbert Grandvil,
iU greatest triumph.
According to some. Presence;
Francaise is an admirable pa
triotic erganization. According
to others, it is a kind of French
Ku-Klux Klan. which uses ter
ror as its chief political instru
ment It is widely believed that
Presence Francaise was impli
cated in the bloody anti-Moroc-an
rioting that took place here
in July! and in the recent assas
sination or attempted assassina
tion of several Frenchmen of
moderate views..
t i i
However' that may be, CoL
e Boeuf is a charming man. if
only because be is m faithful a
reflectiM of a glorious past. He
is a very small mu, with a great
nop of white hair, and a healthy
t pink face that makes him look
good tea years younger than
his eighty-odd years. He receiv
ed Ms foreign visitors warily at
fini, but before long he was
passing sweet port and recount
isg his life story. He first came
here ha 1N7, wheat tho theo-is-
dependent Sultanate of Morocco
was in total anarchy. He served
as an army officer daring the
pacification of Morocco, which
started in 1912. and he h a s
been here off and on ever since.
"That was indeed the heroic
epoch," he said proudly. "I par
ticipated in the creation of an
empire."
Only three months ago, he
said, he had the honor to be
asked to head Presence Fran
caise in Rabat, when it consist
ed of only voung men. Only
last week, 3.000 people came to
this very villa to ; hear him de
nounce the scandalous weak
ness of the French government
and the Resident-General.
His movement spoke, he said,
not only for the vast majority of
Frenchmen but for the great
majority of all Morocco, since
the Berber tribesmen, who
make up a great proportion of
the Moroccan population, were
undoubtedly loyal to France.
Someone asked . whether the
sack of Oued Zem on Aug. 20,
in which 50-odd Frenchmen
were brutally slaughtered, had
not been the work of Berber
tribesmen. It was at this point
that CoL le Boeuf delivered his
lecture on Moslem psychology.
It Was terrible, he said, how
foreign journalists misunder
stood Moslem psycho ogy, the
basic problem of Morocco. How
well he remembered, he said,
how hard was the combat with
the Berber in 1912 -4 he still
carried a ball in his leg from
the fighting around Khenifra.
"Then when the situation was
most -desperate, we saw mount
ed tribesmen from the hills
upon us. It is all over, we are
finished. But no. although it
was a tribe which has surren
dered to us only eight days be
fore,, theyhad already learned
who were their true friends,
they had come to help us, the
French,"
His voice softened as he re
called his past glories. But it
hardened again as he! returned
to the present 'These people
are still in the Middle; Ages, in.
' capable of governing them
selves. Do yon think that the
