Abstract

View From Tangier. The Spreading Arab Tide

Bowles, Paul | June 30, 1956 issue

If not officially, the integration of Tangier with the rest of Morocco has already taken place. Instead of the customary assortment of European tourists and residents, elderly Moslems in djellabas and native Jews from the nearby streets of the Medina, one is likely to see sitting at the tables no one but young Moslems in European dress — mostly blue jeans. From time to time a noisy cortege passes from a side street through the open space and disappears into the darkness of another alley — two or three policemen leading a protesting Moslem in torn clothing.
