A report on tilt present situation in Ktrypi has just been issued by five members ot' par liament Major Harry Harms. Wil liam I.unn, J. I.awsnn. J. i;. Mill and ' John K. Swan, who visited the coun try in September und October, as rep resentatives of the Egypt paiilamcn tary committee. -That the Egyptian people have the tution of Kcypt." they say in their re . port, "is a matter for the, Eiryptians to decido and neither ofr 113 nor lor ( ur government to dictate.'.' The Rollitlon .of the Egyptian ques tion depends, the report states, on the detailed application ot the fol lowing principles: 'That the gyptlan people have the right to self-determination and com plete independence and thilt any treaty should, while providing neces sary safeguards for any reasonable llritish and other foreign interests, not in any way prejudice that risht. "That the delegates to negotiate the treaty on behalf of Kirypt ought to be selected by the seleced representatives of tho gyptian people. "That for the securing' of the free election of such representatives, mar tial law and other repressive measures should forthwith be abolished." The members recommend that the British government advise the present Prime. Minister of Rgypt that an elec tion bo forthwith held in that coun try. "To drift is disaster," says the ro. port.- "In. the interests of our coun try we strongly advise the government to enter at once upon the course necessary to put Itself Into negotia tion with representative Kyptian opin ion in a spirit of good will. We ear nestly trust that our visit may help to bring-about a settlement in the form of nn alliance between two free and Independent peoples." (The Noted Dead ITS.

UNABLE TO RECONCILE (Continued from page one.) Dritisli circles that the Anglo-Japa-, nese alliance inevitably would come into the naval discussions if it had not already done so. despite the ap parent intention of the Ileitis)! dele gation to press for a naval agreement not dependent on the outcome of the Far Kastern question. The naval question is said to have been con pidercd at a conference yesterday be tween Baruli Kato and Arthur J. llul four, und it is regarded amo:.g the dep.f;at-8 as entirely likely that the al liance was one of the important ques tions of thir discussions. From the Japanese there has conic from Mime to time suggestions that fche Far Kastern question had a close relation to the reduction of arma ment. While the Far Kastern conversa tions are referred to by atl the prin cipals us having accomplished im portant results, it is pointed out that In none of the concrete questions dealt with has here been a binding and uncondiional agreement. It is asserted 'by those connected witli the conference that ft would be well with in the diplomatic possibilities for the point of the Far Kastern negotiations to become so Interwoven, with tho na val question as to prevent u final de termination of the one independent of the other. MARSHAL FOCH IN MEDFORD long as no means was provided to carry them to distant waters. Dili wfien airplane carriers lire provided, the aircraft become potential v'oap ous ,of oftgeuso for bombardment o( enemy cities and fortifications. Another aspect of the airplane car rier problerii lies in tho American pol icy providing for division of her fleet for operations in two far separated seas, the Atlantic and Pacific, even if American obligations as to the Phil ippines are disregarded in the calcu lations. That makes necessary, American officers argue, alrplauc car riers for use with each fleet, tlreal Britain, it is asserted has even wider responsibilities in all tho seven seas. Britain's national life depends on keping the seas open to her trade ships and her equipment in aircraft and carriers must be equal to that of any o'-her power. Japan, in the American view, is not similarly situated. Her navy oper ates practically for defensive pur poses, as a single unit. The sea of Japan, which lies be twene Japan and Korea, is suscep tible of such defense that it would he almost impossible of access by an enemy fleet in war time. For these reasons it is regarded as certain that the. American conference delegation will not be disposed to concur in the Japanese proposal of equal tonnage in airplane carriers for Japan.

Associated Press) Negotiations over I the naval program, according to tho I feeling in American arms conference 1 circles today are proceeding satisfac torily. Tho four American deb-gutes j meeting today went over the situation as it stands. Afterward, it was said j that the Americans were well satisfied I with tho turn that the naval discus i iiions were taking and were hopeful 1 that the American limitation program J would be received favorably. A more J definite status, however, was said to be improbable before next week. ! To what extent the discussions over !the naval ratio and the political prob j lems of the Far Kast may become in : tertwined became a subject of increas- ins speculation. The whole physical t procedure of the conference thus far . has contributed to absolute separation I of the two questions, and on the sur ; face there has been no indication of a change.

From a cyclonic storm In Port land, Ore., to the' sunshine of Southern Oregon Marshal Foch jour neyed in the American Ieion special ttain'last night and this morning. Tho marshal of Franco was In ex cellent spirits when lie arose at his usual hour of S o'clock this morning. Ho shaved himself, a task which ho doos not permit his orderly to per form, but which ho doos with an old fashioned razor had the French breakfast of coffee and rolls and then went to the rear platform ot his ob servation car to admire the scen ery. ".Magnificent 1" was his exclama tion as the train passed the Cascade mountains, with tho Willamette river flowing close to the tracks. Tho first stop was a Glendale, and the entire population of 600 was out to greet the marshal, who made a short talk, telling the people how much ho admired their country. Then he began asking questions. "How many soldiers did you send to France?" he inquired. "Ninety-nine," replied an ex-ser vice man. "Five were killed." "We revere the memories of those five," said the marshal. Then, al ter a pause: "Aro you prospering?" "Yes, indeed," answered one ot the crowd. '"'', "Good," ho said. "You all look healthy and happy. This I am glad to see. The ex-service man had a French flag which fluttered from a pole, and he said: "I brought this flag hack with me from Kaint-Emilion," be said. The marshal smiled .and asked: "And did you bring any of tho wine of Salnt-Emillon back with you?" ( Saint-Emillon is a greut wino country.) "No," was the crestfallen response of tho former soldier. National Coramunder MacNider of the American Legion introduced Mar shal Foch to the crowd. Mr. Mac Nider got a rousing cheer. At all of the small towns passed crowds were out. The next stop was Grants Pass, where Gen. U. S. Grant fought the Indians. A big crowd was out, headed by Lium, commander of Grants Pass Post No. 2S,of the Le g ou, and O. S. Ulanchard, president of. the Chamber of Commerce. The enthusiasm felt by the peo ple of tho west over the visit of Mar shal Foch and Commander MacNIder of the Legion was demonstrated by the fact that numerous presents of ap ples and other products of the coun try were left oh the train for them during the night. At Koseburg, Ore., Umpqua ost, No. 10, of the Ameri can Legion, left boxes of prunes and apples for Marshal Foch and Com mander MacNider.
