Terror Campaign Ravages Morocco; French Flee City OUED ZEM, French Morocco W Here In the foothills of Morocco's Alias Mountains, the French may have had their first taste of a terror campaign combining some uf ihe worst features of East Afr ica's Mau Maus with the guerrilla warfare plaguing neighboring Al geria. Just two hours' drive from Cas ablanca, Oued Zem is a pleasant little mining town whose painted one-story houses contrast gaily with the hot, stony countryside around It. Today most of its 11.000 Moroc can Inhabitants have fled to the countryside in fear of French re prisals. Many of the surviving 700 Eu ropeans are crowded into the French government headouarters. Women nurse their babies and weep for lost relatives while their men, armed with rifles and cart ridge belts, help the Foreign Le gion guard the town. This is what happened: Saturday was billed In advance as a day of violence, but in popu lous Casablanca, not in peaceful Oued Zem. Nationalist partisans of the exiled Sultan. Mohammed Ben Youssef, were expected to riot in the big commercial center. But the Smaala tribe near Oued Zem had backed France's ouster of Ben Youssef two years ago. Only a small police force guarded the little mining center. About 9 a.m. 4.000 robed tribes men, half of them on horseback. descended on the town. Joined by about 2.000 townsmen they cut down telegraph poles, set up barricades, stoned passers-by and set fire to gasoline stations. Then they broke Into European homes, in an or?v of blood lettins. Officials say they killed SO Eu ropeans, gome still missing may have escaped. A French official said most of Ihe victims were children, their throats cut as the tribesmen would slaughter lambs. ; As many Europeans as could reached the government headquar ters. The men clamored for arms, but authorities did not distribute them until mldafternoon In fear ql reprisals against the native pop ulation. For six or seven hours the riot ers controlled most of the town. In the afternoon they attacked the government building, but the armed civilians beat them off. Foreign Legionnaires, many of them German volunteers, arrived about 5 p.m. and quickly cleared the town. Heavily armed scout cars pursued the tribesmen 10 or 12 miles back toward the moun tains. A man who went with the legion said at least 100 of the Moroccans must have been killed. The re treating tribesmen took many of their casualties with them. Much of the town was ruined. In some districts nearly every house was burned out. Officials hurriedly estimated the damage at a billion francs, about 1300.000. 'This land has drunk up tens of millions of my francs," said one rifle-bearing civilian. "Now It has drunk up my son too." French Morocco has dozens of small towns like Oued Zem, where the Moroccans far outnumber the French. France does not have enough police and troops to garri son them all.

"We will have to consider in the next session whether to ex tend this act as well as whether it should be revised as President Eisenhower suggested," he said. "Unless it is extended. It won't do much good to amend it." Eisenhower proposed several changes in the law to relax re strictions that Sen. Lehman (D NY) and others have contended have held the influx of retugees to a mere trickle. The Judiciary Committee con sldered these proposals, along with others, but took no action before adiournment. Watkins said he thinks there are some "weak spots" in the act which have made its terms diffi cult to carry out. Nevertheless, he said the program now is going "in high gear" with about 1,400 persons being admitted weekly. "I am confident that all of the Greeks and Italians contemplated under the act will be admitted," he said. "Not all of the escapees and expellees from Germany are likely to get here and there la trouble about the admission of people from the Low Countries." Up to now he said only about 50,000 refugees have been received in this country. ' Haaimene' Organ Chars' Oraea trsMt ttock lead ins male piano in thia part at the west.
