ALLENRY GIVES POLICY OF
 GREAT BRITAIN IN EGYPT

Cairo Saturday. Nov. 15.-(By the A P)-Field Marshal Viscount Allen by, British high commissioner in Egypt, has issued the following state ment:
 "The policy of Great Britain in Egypt is to preserve the autonomy of the country under British protection and develop a system of self-govern- ment under an Egyptian ruler. The object of Great Britain is to defend Egypt against all external dangers or the Interference of any foreign pow CT, and at the same time establish A constitutional system, in which-under British guidance so far as is neces- sary-the. sultan and his ministers and the elected representatives of the people may in their several spheres increasingly cooperate in the manage ment of Egyptian affairs.
 His Majesty's government has de- cided to send a mission to Egypt to work out the details of constitution to carry out this object, and, in con- sultation with the sultan, his minis ters and the Egyptian representatives, to undertake the preliminary work requisite before the future form of government can be settled
 Tt is not the function of the mis- sion to impose a constitution on Egypt. It's duty is to explore the ground and discuss with the author ities on the spot the reforms neces- sary and propose, it is hoped, in com plete agreement with the sultan and his ministers, a scheme of govern | ment which can subsequently, be put into force"

 How much do you pay for the meat ?" he asked.
 "It is very expensive" they replied.
 But how much do you pay for it?' he insisted.
 we have to pay great deal for il" !" they said again.
 "But how much ?" And this time the demand was made so emphatically that it could not be ignored.
 Fifteen cents," they confessed,
 Hereafter you sell it for 25 cents" |" Wood ordered.
 The butchers left and the price of meat came down to the figure which he fixed. It was wartime and he exercised su- preme power. In the recent wartime we have tried to bring prices down by congressional investigations and prices are still up.-Philadelphia Public Led ger.
