Quite unexpectedly Tuesday, Theo-
dore Roosevelt delivered what is con-
sidered by Englishmen as severe ar
raignment of the nation In its attitude
toward Egypt. He called attention to
the fact that England's object in TAX
ing hold in Egypt was the establish
ment of order. Either you have or
you have not the right to remain in
Egypt and establish and keep order.
If you have not the right and have not
the desire to keep order. then. by all
means. get out. But II. as l hope, you
feel that your duty to civilized man
kind and your fealty to your own great
nation alike bid you stay. then make
the fact and the name agree and show
that you are ready to meet in very
deed the responsibility that is yours.
When a people treats assassination as
the cornerstone of self-government, it
forfeits all rights to be treated as wor-
thy of self-government. Some nation
must govern Egypt and hope and be-
lieve that the English nation will de-
eide that the duty is theirs"
