The Bolution .of tho Egyptian ques tion depends, the report states, on tho detailed application of the fol lowing principles: "That tho gyptian people have the right to self-determination and com plete iliilepl'iidencc and thdt any treaty should, while providing neces sary safeguards for any reasonable Ilritish nnd other foreign interests, not in any way prejudice that right! "That the delegates to negotiate the treaty on behalf of Egypt ought to be selected by tho 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 he abolished." Tho members recommend that the lritlsh government advise the present Primo Minister of Egypt that an elec tion bo forthwith held in that coun try. "To drift is disaster," says the report.- "In the interests of our coun try wo strongly advise the government to enter at once upon . the course noeossary to put itself into negotia tion with representative Kyptian opin ion in a spirit of good will.

UNABLE TO RECONCILE (Continued from page one.) J'.ntish lircles that the Anglo-Japanese alliance inevitably would come into the naval discussions if It had not already done so. despite the ap parent intention of the liritlsh dele gation to press for a naval agreement not dependent on the outcome of the Kai' Eastern question. The naval question is said to have been con sidered at a conference yesterday be tween Baron Kato und Arthur .1. liul four. and it is regarded among the dclegut.-s :'S entirely likely that the al liance was one of the important ques tions of ihir discussions. From the Japanese there has come fromtime to time suggestions that Jtilo Ear Eastern question had a close relation to the reduction of arma ment. While tile Ear Eastern conversa tions are referred to by all the prin cipals as having accomplished im portant results, it Is pointed out that in none of the concrete questions dealt with has hero been a binding autl uncoiullional agreement. It is asserted by those connected with the conference that it would be well with in the diplomatic possibilities for the point of the Ear Eastern negotiations to become so interwoven, with the na val question as to prevent a 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, tint ; wlien airplane carriers are provided, t lie aircraft become potential Venn, ons ,of oftgeuno for bombardment ol enemy cities and fortifications. Another aspect of the attplaue car rier problem lies In tho Am 'rican 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 aro disregarded in tho calcu lations. . That makes necessary, American officers argue, airplaue car riers for use witli each fleet. Great P.ritain, It Is asserted has even wider responsibilities in all the seven seas. Britain's national life deponds on keping tho seas open to her trade ships and her equipment in aircraft and carriers must be equal .to that of any other power. Jnpan, in the American view, Is not similarly situated. Her navy oper ates practically for dofensivo pur poses, us 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. WASHINGTON, Dec.!. (By Asso ciated Press.) China's request lor withdrawal of foreign troops was re ferred to a drafting committee headed by Eliiiu Hoot for further study at to day's meeting of the committee on Far Eastern and Pacific, affairs of the Washington conference. Discussion of tho troop question is expected to be continued at another meeting of tho nine powers committee arranged for tomorrow when it also is planned to take up the question of special spheres of influence in China and leased territory. (Continued from Page One) SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. . Nego tiations for a football gamo horo New Year's day between tho Univer sity of Nebraska and either tho Uni versity of Southern California or Washington State coflege are being carried on by the Native Sons of tho Golden West. Nebraska today de clined an invitation from the Native Sons to play the Pacific fleet but in timated the team might come west to meet a college eleven. Last season W. S. C. defeated Nebraska. WASHINGTON, Doc. 2. (Hy the Associated Press) Negotiations over t the naval program, according to tho feeling in American arms conference circles today are proceeding satisfac torily. Tho four American delegates meeting today went over the situation as it stands. Afterward, it was said that the Americans were well satisfied I with tho turn that the naval discus sions wore taking and were hopeful j that the American limitation program I would be received favorably. A more J definite status, however, was said to I be Improbable before next week. To what extent the discussions over ! the naval ratio and the political proh j leriis of the Far East may become in ' tertwined became a subject of increas- nig speculation. The whole physical procedure of the conference thus far , lias contributed to absolute separation I of the t"wo questions, and on the s.ur- face there has been no indication of n change. It was suggested today in ON HOARD MARSHAL FOCH'S SPECIAL TRAIN, EN ROUTE, Dee. 2. From a cyclonic storm in Port land, Ore., to tluv sunshine of Southern Oregon Marshal Foch jour neyed in the American legion special tiain' last night and this morning. The marshal of Franco was in ex cellent spirits when he arose at his usual hour of S o'clock this morning. Ho shaved himself, a task which ho does not permit his orderly to per form, but which ho does with an old fashioned razor had tho French breakfast of coffee and rolls and then went to the rear platform of his ob servation car to admire the scen ery. ".Magnificent!" was his exclamn tion as the train passed the Cascade mountains, with the Willamette river flowing close to tho tracks. Tho first stop was a Glemlale, and the entire population of 000 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 muny soldiers did you send to France?" he inquired. "Ninety-nine," replied an ex-service man. "Five were killed." "We revere the memories of those five." said the marshal. Then, af ter a pause: "Are you prospering?" "Yes, indeed," answered one of the crowd. . - - "Good," he said. "You nil look healthy nnd happy. This I am glad to see. The ex-survico man had a French flag which fluttered from a polo, and he said: "I brought this flag back with me from Kaint-lCmllion," he said. The marshal smiled .and asked: "And did you bring any of tho wine of Saint-Emillon back with ! you?" ( Saint-Emilion is a great wine country.) "No," was the orestfallen response of tho former soldier. National Comniunder 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 Grunts Pass, where Uen. U. S. Grant fought the India ns. A big crowd was out, headed by Mum, commander of Grants Pass Pont No. 2S,of tho Le g'on, and O. S. lllanchard, president of the Chamber of Commoico. The enthusiasm felt by the peo ple of tho west over the visit of Mnr sl.al 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 on the train for them during the night. At Roseburg, Ore., Umpqua ost, No. 16. of the Ameri con Legion, left boxes of prunes and apples for Marshal Foch and Com mander MacNider.
