THE FIRM HAND
MAKES EGYPT YIELD. BRITISH CONDITIONS ACCEPTED. “YIELDING TO NECESSITY.” BY CABLE—PBESS ASSOCIATION—COPYBIGHT. LONDON, Dec. 2. The Cairo correspondent of the Daily Chronicle states that four Notes and a long explanatory letter were exchanged between Viscount Allenby (High Commissioner of Egypt) and the Premier (Zirwar Pasha). These show that the Egyptian Government, “yielding to necessity and witli a strong desire to bring peace and a good understanding,” will accept the British conditions without reserve. It now remains for the Government to prevent further outrages. In this connection the attitude of the students leaves much to be desired. The British inspector to-day visited a large .secondary school in Cairo, and found 1800 students in the playground listening to a wild harangue from a 17-year-old classmate. The inspector wa-s received with boos and cries of: “Kill the Englishman.” The headmaster looked on, apparently approving the attitude of the youths. TURKEY TAKES NO PART. DESIRES PEACE WITH BRITAIN.
