EGYPT AND BRITAIN
TREATY TO BE OBSERVED
LONDON, February 16. Egypt’s determination to carry out the provisions of the Anglo-Egyptian Treaty to the full was expressed today by the new Prime Minister (Nahas Pasha). ... He said that Egypt was giving immense help to Britain, not only on account of the treaty, but because both countries were democracies by conviction. That was why the Egyptians accepted as a noble and inevitable sacrifice the restrictions which, of necessity, were imposed on them and would be imposed later. He said that his country would never cease to aid the struggle for the good of humanity. Democracy was its second religion, and Egypt was attached very sincerely to the treaty.
