Argument of the Committee.

The committee says Oh this point:
I'm principle the same reason which
justified article ten in the treaty of
COnstantinople requires that its equiv
alent shall be Included in the pending
treaty. If ii was proper that the treaty
of ConstantinOple should not interfere
with the measures which the sultan
and khedive might find it necessary
10 take for securing by their own forces
the defense of Egypt and the main
tenace of public order or if il was
proper that the provision of the enum-
Grated articles of that treaty should in
no, case occasion any obstacle TO the
measure which the imperial Ottoman
government may think it necessary to
take i'll order to insure by its own
forces the defense of its own posses
siOnS situated on the eastern coast of
the Red Sea'-Surely the situation of
the United States on both OcenaS and
as To territory Ia he occupied by the
canal itself, requires thc Incorporation
into the pending convention of Stipula
tiOnS equivalent to those in article ten
of the convention of ConStantinOple.
Treaty Should BE Amended Anyhow.
The committee concludes its recon-
mendatiOns 10y quoting its proposed
amendment, remarking as follows: "Ir
respective of the foregoing cOnSidera-
tons we are clearly of the opinion that
if article ten did not exist the true in
terests and necessity of the United
States require upon the highest con
sideratiOnS of prudence and right the
adoption of the amendment proposed"

The bevy of "salesladies" stood out
there craning their necks up the red
striped canopy that spanned from

the long line of monogrammed car

nosure of their gaze. Each wanted to
be the first to catch glimpse Of white
tulle and orange blossoms. AS the we'd
