Age -Old Conflict of Europe and Africa
Echoes in Italian Clash With Abyssinia
By Melvln P. Coleman
(Associated Preaa Stuff Writer)
Italy clashing with Abyssinia, and
"pacifying" southern Libya, the
French foreign legion slogging thru
sand to fight Berbers, Spanish soldiers
guarding Moroccothey're all Just
modern reflections of one of the old
eat rivalries In history the conte.it
between southern Europe and north
ern Africa.
Spanning or circling the blue Medi
terranean, Latin stock haa fought
Arabic stork In those arenas since al
most the beginning of human records.
Alexandria by Its name still testi

Great added Egypt to hla Macedonian
empire. Ancient Rome atrove through
three Punic wars, spaced from 264 to
148 B. C, to overcome the North Afri

A wave of Saracena swept from Bed
Sea to the Atlantic, crossed the strntts
of Gibraltar and overran Spain In 711
A.D., slaying there for 300 years.
Some 400 yeara later Spain was
fighting the Moors In northern Africa.
When the United Statea wae but an
Infant republic, the pirates of the
Barbary count preyed upon Spanish,
French and Italian shipping which
ventured too near the African shore
and kept It up until American fri
gates under Stephen Decatur, Jr.,
humbled the dey of Algiers at Trlpolt.
In 1869 and 1803 there were wara

atrugglea took place there 14 years
ago.
In 1021 a Spanish army, seeking to
"pacify" the hinterland of Its Morocco
met disastrous defeat. The Dons had
hard work: maintaining a foothold on
the coast.
Hlfffc Finally Defeated
The next year they tried again and
were repulsed and It was not until
1023 that Spanteh arms could claim a
decisive victory over the Rlffa. That
chapter of military history still
echoed In the revolution which de
throned Alfonao XIII In 1931.
France's experiences In Tunisia,
Algeria and Morocco also were trying.

to provide aaoo monthly for all per

of Governor Frank F. Merrlam, repub
lican head of California's government.
"I have seen no specific proposals
for old ago relief which. In their bnalc
principles, are as workable as the
Town send plan." the governor said In
a radio address last night.
"As 1 see It, Dr. Town send haa sug

financing old age relief."
Political observers looked to the
state legislature at Sacramento today
for reaction to the governor'a remarks,
made during another of the series of
talks in which he dlscuases state
problems.
Meanwhile. In Washington, a long
awaited petition to force a house
vote on the pension plan was filed.
Dr. F. E. Townsend, author of the
proposal, has been In the national
