By the Associated Press. DIGBY, N. S, November 27.—While trylng to make Westport harbor the schooner Robert and Arthur, an al- leged rum runner, in command of Capt. George Moore, last night struck a ledge and sank, with 600 cases of alcohol aboard, according to word re- ceived here last night. The crew, after salvaging 100 cases, was res- cued. Violent gales are said to have driven the schooner from the row of liquor ships off New York.

Justice Siddons of the District Supreme Court has set December 3 for the hearing on a writ of habeas corpus sued out by Mrs. Ada Tap- ponnler, who was taken into custody by the police at the request of Vir- ginia_authorities on a charge of housebreaking. Mrs. Tapponnler gave bail of $1,000 pending the hearing. The demand of the Virginia author- ities is said to grow out of the efforts of the mother to gain possession of her minor children from the custody of their paternal grandfather, Alon- 20 Breeden, who resides near Luray, Va. The mother has remarried and now has the children with her. The | charge is sald to be based on the means secured in obtaining the chil- dren from the home of their grand- father. Attorney William P.

There positlon is hardly un-| like that of Senator La Follette and they may of their own volition choose to join with Senators Shipstead and Magnus Johnson, the Farmer-Labor representatives, in forming an inde- pendent group. But this seems un- likely. Mr. La Follette has always contend- ed that he was a true Republican, a progressive and not a reactionary. So has Senator Norris and some of the other Western insurgents. But who is to decide what is really a regular Republican? Shall it be the stand- ards of New York and New England or shall it be the standards of Ne- braska and North Dakota and Wis- consin? Senator Norris was elected on the same day that President Cool- idge carried Nebraska, and yet they represent opposite conceptions of Re- publicanism. Decision of Policy. So long as there is a primary sys- tem. the Western Republicans wil insist that the word “regularity will be decided at the polls by the people of each district or each State and not by leaders or groups of lead- ers, who happen to be more numerous in the majority party. President Wil- son’s effort to discipline members of his own party was directed at the electorate in primary elections. The administration itself took no part in any primary contest in either the Senate or the Hofise, at least no avowed and open part, though here and there friends of the administra- tion raised funds and devoted them- selves untiringly to the problem of punishing the President's opponents in Congress. It was the exception rather than the rule. -— ANSWERS HUSBAND’S SUIT Mrs. R. V. McCarthy Tells Why Family Lives in Cellar. Daniel R.

SIMONDS. The new Egyptian crisis which is { flling the foreign dispatches at the present moment must be viewed from two different angles. It is, primarily, a fresh and fearful disclosure of the situation in Egypt at the moment, a situation which has been developing ever since the World War. Again. It is one more revelation of the diffi- culty, If not the impossibility, of giv- ing practical application to the Brit- ish policy of devolution, & policy which Is” encountering similar ob- stacles in India, in the Irak and, for that matter, in Ireland. In the crisis of the war the Brit- ish took the decisive step of proclaim- Ing a protectorate in Egypt as a de- tail in breaking the connection be- tween Egypt and Turkey, as Britain was at war with the latter country. This proclamation of a protectorate was the culminating step in the long series which began with the bombard- | ment of Alexandria In 1883 and in- cluded the campalgn to Khartum of i klll\ hener and |er the famous Fashoda s with France. | Having destroyed the Turkish | shadow of claim upon Egypt by the war and having also liquidated rench claims by surrendering Brit- ish claims in_ Morocco, the British eomed In 1918 at last to have their hands free in Egypt, where they had not alone the great intercsts incident to the economic development of the ountry in recent <, but also the al stake represented by the Suez Canal, one of the main links in the n of communications binding the 1 d Kingdom alike with India and the ast i ¥ ountered Two Tides. | Unhappily the British encountered lin Egypt not alone the rising tide of l\uunull\ln but also that of Mo- | hammedan sentiment. Almost from | the start the protectorate proved un- workable and the stress of circum- stances led the British very quickly to renounce it and to substitute for it a system not wholly unlike that set up by us in Cuba, namely, the be- | stowal of domestic independence {limited by control over forelgn rela- in making this large conces- | sion to Egypt the British were in no | mind to abandon their own control of the Egyptian Sudan—that is, the re- gions of the Upper Nile, above the which had been lost to in the Mahdi rebellion and | conquered by Anglo-Egyptian armies lin Kitchen paign. ‘Pt waus a protec {torate of Lritain a condominium was possible, but once Egypt was free and demanded absolute control of the situation changed. infinite harm was done to ige and influence in the by the unsuccessful sup- port Lloyd George gave the Greeks in the war which terminated with the expulsion of the Greek armies from -! Asia Minor and for a moment threat- |ened to involve the British in a war with Turkey. By supporting the | Greeks, the British aroused the hos- | tility of the whole Mohammedan world; by vielding to the Turk, they sacrificed their prestige to a fatal | extent. Egypt Quick to Act. now freed from the protec | torate, began u campaign to obtaln |the Sudan, a campalgn which com- Ibined violence with ordinary pro- cedure and led to & number of crises. Just before MacDonald fell he had {carried on a negotiation with Zag- | houl Pasha in London and had firmly |repulsed Egyptian demands. The |recent tragedy is one more detail in !the controversy and the murder of he Sirdar. the commander of the | Bgyptian forces, the latest expression {of the purpose of the Egyptian Na- tionalists. As a consequence of this murder the question now arises whether Britain will reverse her policy of devolution and retire in large meas- ure from Egypt. only keeping such foothold as might insure the pro- tection of the Suez Canal and the pos- session of the Sudan, or continue in a pathway which has so far failed to bring about any satisfactory ad- justment. Indeed, the question is ralsed whether there Is any com- promise between a policy of absolute control and one of complete evacua- tion. Moreover, the Egyptian problem differs only Immeasurably from the much larger Indian question. In both cases the British have sought to bestow upon the natives a varying measure of political independence. But in both cases the concessions actually made have resulted rather in a stimulation of the desire for com- plete freedom and absolute control of their own affairs than any better relations with the British or any even momentary allaying of bitter- ness Force May Cow Egyptians. The show of force and firmness which has marked the first moves of the new Tory government may have their effect and the Egyptians may be cowed. But it is at least just as possible that they may provoke an explosion and an explosion might easily make necessary the dispatch of a large army and something like the reconquest of Egypt. Nor would the trouble be confined to Egypt, be- cause the question of religion might lead to an extension of the trouble to Palestine and Mesopotamia, while beyond there is always India. Actually then British imperial a fairs have reached a real crisis. At least temporarily a policy of devolu- tion has broken down and British concessions have brought not better feeling but worse, not contentment but multiplied demands. The double pressure of natlonalism and Mo- hammedanism have threatened the disruption of all the British estab- lishments between Suez and Singa- pore. The belief has grown in and out of Britain that as a result of the exhaustion of the war the British people were unwilling to fight to re- tain their colonies or protectorates and this conviction has spurred the EgYptians, the Arabs and the In- pt, 613 , Morton St. N.E.

Now, it would seem we are to have a test of the actual state of British determination and perhaps a decisive answer to the Interrogation fre- quently heard in later years to whether the British Empire was about to disintegrate or to put forth new evidence of vitality. And it would also seem that the real fate of India, the Irak and British power and prestige alike in the Near and Far East may be decided for decades by avents in Egypt In the coming year.

Some of the bureau chiefs favored formal Issuance: others op- posed it The majority admitted that a com- munication frem a regularly con- stituted parlfament presented an en- tirely new problem, but argued that if the secretariat were obliged to eireulate memorials from all organ- izations other than governments it would find itself hopelessly burdened, and there would be no limit to its 5.

It was further argued that already as a matter of fact the Egyptian ap- peal was in the hands of the gov- ernments through the medium of their state parliaments.

Note Differences Fi The text of the Egvptian Parlia- ment's telegram to the secretarlat-| general of the league, as made public here officially vesterday, makes no mention whatsoever of the phrase as given out in the version published in Paris, that Parllament asks the | league to intervene and defend | Egypt. The Geneva text merely says | that the Egyptian Parltament sends its protest to all the world's parlia- ments against the arbitrary action of | England. ! It is pointed out that under Article XI of the covenant any war, or threat of war, is held to be a matter of| concern to the whole league and that the league may take any action it may deem wise to safeguard the peace of nations.

SHIP'AND AIRCRA REPORTS ARE DUE House Investigating Commit- tees to Give Partial Data on Work. ‘With its return to business Monday, the House expects to receive the par- tial reports of two special committees that have been conducting investiga- tions during the Summer recess. One of these is the committee head- ed by Representative White, Republi- can, Maine, appointed to investigate the Shipping Board, and the other is the committee in charge of Represen- tative Lampert, Republican, Wisconsin, which has been Inquiring into all branches of afrcraft production and operation. Because of the scope of these two investigations, the committees, it is sald, are far from completing their tasks, and both have Indicated that a partial report will be submitted on the work that has been accomplished to date. Studied in Europe. Before the adjournment last Spring the Shipping Board committee took up a thorough scrutiny of the operations of the Washington headquarters of the board and Emergency Fleet Cor- poration. This inquiry later in the Summer was extended to operations in New York City and several other points. Beveral members, including Representative Lineberger, Republican, California, and Representatives Davis, Tennessee; Connally, Texas, and Bank- head. Alabama, all Democrats, made a special trip to Europe to inquire into the foreign activities of the board. Despite the Summer work of the committee, many phases of the work and it is thought by some that the entire field may not he covered before the final adjournment of the Sixty-eighth Con- gress next March. ‘The aircraft committee also has been at work during the Summer months, but it {s understood com- mittes members feel they have just scratched the surface of the many phases of their inquiry.

Small cities in the United States have the poorest street illumination and a higher per capita cost for il- lumination of their streets than the larger cities, the Bureau of Standards has found as a result of a survey of street lighting covering 362 citles. Questlonnaires were sent out by the bureau to 730 cities with populations between 10,000 and 500,000, and re- plies were recelved from 362, The city government of Washington did not reply to the qu ionnaire, the bu- reau said.
