Only last October, Algeria and Morocco tried to redraw their disputed boundary with blood, but last week in Cairo, Morocco's King Hassan II and Algeria's ebullient Ahmed ben Bella warmly agreed to mediation. Jordan and Saudi Arabia reopened diplomatic relations with Egypt, which also re-established relations with Tunisia and Morocco.

In Rabat, where Hassan was greeted like a conquering hero by 1,000 warriors on horseback, the Moroccan government broke off diplomatic relations with Cuba and recalled its ambassadors to Egypt and Syria because of their "extremely hostile attitude." Some 350 Egyptian teachers in Morocco were told to pack up and return home. In Algiers the mood was equally ugly. Although both sides had agreed to end their exchange of virulent propaganda, Ben Bella warned Hassan...
