Official circles in London point out that a definite stage in the negotiation has been reached, rep- resenting a sincere attempt on the part of the British government to meet Egyptian aspirations, while preserving necessary safeguards. Emphasis is laid on the fact that nothing has yet been signed and that statements published in Cairo containing an alleged forecast on the treaty should be taken with great reserve. The Cairo newspaper El Ahram has published what it asserted were the principal points in the draft treaty. These included supervision of Egypt's external affairs by Great Britain, and retention of airdromes and other means of communication by the British authorities. The paper added that the terms as outlined were not acceptable to Egypt. ANOTHER LETTER IN BURNING CASE Jersey Police Have Note From Alleged Slayer Newark, N.

FRENCH WILL NOT GRANT DIVORCE TO BAINBRIDGE COLBY (Continued from First Page.) 29 by hand, Bernards- It Mrs, Colby at the end of 1925 asked Colby to divorce her, Mille- {rand said. The Versailles court’s refusal to accept jurisdiction in the case is a vital blow to the American society people to whom France has become a figurative blacksmith shop in which the irksome chains of unhap- py marriages can be severed. Months ago some judges hinted that the flood of American divorce applications was humiliating to the prestige of the courts, and announc- requirements under which the courts would act were to be wade more stringent.
