WILL IT GO TO SPAIN ? A recent Paris message stated that the cession of Spanish Morocco to France in exchange for a cash consideration of £40,000,01)0, the return of Gibraltar to Spain by Britain, and the abandonment of Ceuta in Morocco to Britain by Spain, are openly discussed. The Spanish Premier, Count Komanoues, outlined these proposals during his visit to Paris to President Wilson and M. Clemenceau. Officials neither conlirm nor deny the report. Still these proposals were freely discussed in the corridors of the Chamber of Deputies, as well as the renewal of the proposal to build a tunnel under the Straits of Gibraltar, to provide a direct land connection between Africa and France, which could he extended to England if the English Channel tunnel were constructed.
