TREATY NEGOTIATIONS
BRITAIN AND EGYPT. THE OPENING SPEECHES. (British Official Wireless.) (United Press Association.) (By Electric Telegrapb—Copyright.) RUGBY, March 30. Anglo-Egyptian negotiations will be formally and publicly opened in the Locarno room at the Foreign Office tomorrow morning, when speeches will be made by the-Foreign Secretary (Mr Arthur Henderson) and the Egyptian Prime Minister (Nahas Pasha). After this session it is probable that the negotiations will develop into an expert examination of the existing draft treaty. That draft, embodying proposals for a lasting and honourable settlement of the Anglo-Egyptian question, was drawn up in an agreement by Mr Henderson and by Mahmoud Pasha and published last August. Mr Henderson, who, in a covering note, described the proposals as representing the extreme limit he could recommend the British Government to go, undertook that if the proposals were ratified by the Egyptian Parliament he would at once submit these to Parliament iu London, with a view to the conclusion and ratification of a treaty carrying them into effect.
