Geneva, Nov. 26.--A telegram of protest against the British . action in Egypt following the assassination of the Sirdar, Sir Lee Stack, was received today by the fecretarist of the League of Nations from the Egyptian parliament under the sig: nature of the president of that body. The text indicates that a similar communication, has been forwarded to all the world parliaments. The League officials seem in doubt as to what to do with the com- munication, coming in as it does from the parliament and not from the Egypt government, Whether it shall be distributed officially to the members of the League council which is meeting shortly in Rome has not yet been determined, but officials this morn- ing expressed the opinion that the most likely course was that the doc- ument would be transmitted to all the members of the League for their information. MUCH EASIER London, Nov. 26.—(By the A. P.)— Field Marshal Viscount Allenby, British high commissioner in Egypt, informed the British government in a message today that the situation in Egypt was much easier today as! a result of the respite since the re- signation of the British cabinet. The} possibility of serious riots in Cairo and other centers, he said, was great. ly reduced. Lord Allenby, it was said in official quarters, betieves the Ziwar Pasha cabinet will accept the rémaining British demands for open direct ne- gotiations for settlement of the dif ferences existing between the gov: ernments. Official dispatches assert the popu- lation seems to have become recon- ciled to the new state of affairs and it is believed in government quarters that if the Ziwar cabinet accepts the demands they will be tolerated by even the extremists, at least for the present. British officials here hope that the Ziwar government, if it gets a smooth start, will be able to strengthen its foothold so that it can: withstand the attacks of the opposi- tion, which are certain to be strong ‘Sin the new assembly. Avoid Appearance of Pressure Lord Allenby and Neville Hender- son, the British diplomatic represen- tative in Cairo, meanwhile are not making contacts with the new gov- ernment to a greater extent than their official duties require, it being desired to prevent prevalence of the idea in Egypt that Great Britain is influencing the new government pol icy. ‘While the movement of any British troops toward Egypt has been tem- porarily suspended the troops actual- ‘tly within Egyptian boundaries are constantly moving toward “and about the concentration points at Cairo and Alexandria, British troops are being marched through the streets of C: daily in accordance with the British custom in s lar cases in near east- ern tetritory based on experience as to the best means of deterring would be rioters, Lord Allenby informed the home government that there were three battalions of troops in Cairo and that they were marched through the streets late last night and pro- bably would be ordered out again to- day.

Willard, farm economist at the Agricultural college, who is cooperating with the federal officials in charge. “The reason for its importance is the fact that agriculture is at the bottom, or has just started to climb, in the cycle of depression and prosperity. “The agricultural census was au- thorized by the last session of con- gress, and is being conducted by ‘the United States bureau of com- imeree. For the past several years, we have had many proposals for re- lieving the agricultural depression, —some extravagant and some appar- ently sound. “The. "peculiar par despité the multiplicity of cures sug- gested, no one has known exactly what was wrong with the patient. That may be the explanation of the reason why such widely varying re- lief measures have been proposed. “Phis agricultural census which is bout to be.statted will furnish the ‘acts regarding agriculture, and will set at rest all guesses and extrava- gant statements made by people as to the status of farming.” | Information called for in the jschedule includes acreage of farms, amount of lund rented, rate of rent, land@ in various crops, summer fal- low, pasture, production of all crops, number of head of various classes of livestock and poultry, and value of livestock and livestock products. Information is called for from which a net worth statement can be prepared. Data will be secured on the value of the farm, buildings, implements and machinery. Farm expenditures and taxes for 1924 will also be listed. Reports will be se- cured on the value of farm products sold through cooperative marketing organizations, and on the value of supplies purchased through farm- ers’ organization That census officials are moved by the spirit of the times is indi- cated by question No. 39, “Is there a radio outfit on this farm?” of it that is Ireland Mourns For Cardinal Armgarth, Ireland, Nov. 26, (By the A.

The claim originated, memorandum recites, in 1902 wh Thomas Marshall as representative of the board of trustees of the nor- mal and industrial school at Ellen- the. cou le asked the former iron king for} 5,000 to build Carnegie Hall, the board of trustees giving certificates of indebtedness due in 20 years. Judge Jansonius says in his opin- ion it was understood by Mr. Carne- gie and Mr. Marshall that the “obli- gation was a moral rather than a le- gal one, and that they depended up- on the legislature to legalize the transaction.” The court concluded that “it is my opinion that this is a matter for the legislature, and not for the courts.” REQUISITION ARE ISSUED Governor R.

The piano music continued, stated in the message, until 11:02 1 when your station announced its first number, cutting off the other station. Your succeeding announce- ment, that you had just heard piano music coming from a foreign station from 10:40 to 11:00 without any an- nouncement of the sending station was part corroboration, at least, of our having been the recipients of for- eign radio broadcasting. Just about five minutes before we located the station above referred to we tuned in on a station at which the language used was English. This may have been 2L0, London, as news- paper reports show that station to be operating on 365 meters, and we caught it at about that point on our dials. However, the local interfer- ence, caused by regeneratives tuning in here, made it impossible to do any- thing with it.
