NEW EGYPTIAN LAW
ATTITUDE TO FOREIGNERS IN COUNTRY (Rec. 2 p.m.) LONDON, July 31. Allied subjects who entered Egypt during the war are to be asked to leave and all privileges granted to Italians, Hungarians, Rumanians and Germans under the Montreux Convention have been abolished under new measures which the Egyptian Government passed governing the position of foreigners in Egypt, says the Exchange Telegraph’s Cairo correspondent. The Cabinet also asked the Minister of the Interior to insert new clauses in the deportation law aimed at foreign elements, which are “either undesirable or of no value to the country.”
SOME BRITISH PROPOSALS REJECTED
(Rec. 2 p.m.) LONDON, July 31. The Egyptian delegation for the treaty discussions rejected some specific points of the British proposals, says the Daily Telegraph’s Alexandria correspondent, “but the door is still open,” said the Prime Minister, Sidky Pasha.
The Egyptians have not agreed to the British suggestion that evacuation should be spread over five years. They wanted it completed in one year, and also, did not agree to the suggestion for a military alliance effective on the threat of war against either country. Instead they proposed a military alliance effective.on an actual declaration of war.
