clusive interview with NEA Service

terms "the tyrannical rule of naval
governors." ' ‘
The judge clitirges that:
1. In live years the islands will
be depopuluted because of mlsruie
and bad economic conditions.
3. In eight years the islands
have had six naval officers as gov-
ernors. tire of whom have been re-
called because of gross mismanage-
ment ol‘ affairs.
3. A naval governdr ordered him
to render a certain decision from the
bench without hearing the evidence.
from his court
when he refused to do it.
4. Congress has broken faith
with the natives by falling to pro-
vide a civil government instead of
naval rule .lnaugurntcd as a tem-
porary measure.
6. A native editor was Jailed for
criticizing the naval rule.
"I was a judge without a court."
says Malmin. "In 1921. Admiral

“Admiral Oman. or his subordi-

“The islands are regarded as oc-

“The natives have no country.

mandate for Syria as part of her
war heritage. It was caused largely
by the sending book as acting gov-

already had rubbed the population
the wrong way by his harsh meth-

One effect of the Drusc war was
the unexpectedly rapid withdrawal
of French troops from the Ruhr.
France already was taking men from
German zones for African service.
Marshal Petain had reported confi-
dentiaily that the Riffs constituted
the most formidable force the repub-

But on top of that came such trouble
in Syria that white troops had to be
sent there.
