The situation is developing favourably to Zaghlul Pasha, with a, correspondingweakening of moderate influences, owing to the failure of the Anglo-Egyptian negotiations. The Sultan has not' yet accepted the resignation of the Premier, Adly Pasha, who persists in declaring that he will rjarticipate in the Government. The political deadlock therefore continues. < Addressing the students at the Soidies Secondary School, who were striking, Zaghlul Pasha advocated non-co-opera-tion on the lines of the Gandhi tactics.
A later message states- that the military have forbid den the Nationalist leader Zagh'lul Pasha to participate in any way in politics, and has ordered him and eight prominent supporters to return to their villages.
