BRITAIN WILL NOT RECEDE ON TERMS.
WILL STAND FIRM ON EGYPTIAN QUESTION. f United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) (Received April 3, 11.20 a.m.) LONDON, April 2.. Though there is strict official reticence about the exchanges between the British and Egyptian delegations, it is learned that there is not tile slightest prospect of Britain receding from the terms laid down. There will be no piecemeal variations. It will be a case of all, or nevthing, otherwise the conditions of the 1922 Declaration, with the reserved points, will be reverted to. In that case the proposed withdrawal of troops from Cairo to the Canal zone, which already is viewed askance in the dominions, would not be carried out. It is also learned that the safeguarding of the canal would be the last thing on which further concession would be wrung from Britain.
