UNREST IN EGYPT
ANTI-BRITISH DISORDER ABATES Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright CAIRO, November 28. (Received November 29, at 11 a.m.) The sudden abatement of the antiBritish disorder- in Egypt appears to be due to the Wafd’s inability to or T ganjse a united front against the Government. The Liberal leader, Pasha Mahmud, issued a manifesto inviting acceptance of the 1930 draft treaty as a basis of independence. The Wafd. issued a counter-manifesto, which insisted on the restoration of * the 1923 constitu-. tion. In face of this disagreement, the Wafd is believed to have decided, while ostensibly condemning Nessim Pasha’s (the Premier) co-operation with Britain, secretly to facilitate his retention in office in preference to someone else less friendly towards the Wafd.
