gRITTSH PROTEtTORATE
RECOGNIZED, REPORTED

London, April 24.-(Nia British
Wireless Service) The British pro-
tectorate in Egypt has been recog-
nized by the United States according
to good authority, il was stated by the
Paris correspondent OF the Times. lie
continues:
This step seems 10 be attributed TO
efforts of Egyptian nationalist 70
make play with President Wilson $
fourteen points against the British
governing Egypt. President Wilson Is
understood to have every sympathy
with the idea of the gradual evolution
in Egypt of some form OF representa-
tive autonomous government At th@
same time he recognizes the great
services rendered to Egypt by British
administration and feels strongly that
bioodshed and outrage are not meth
DDS by which to provide majority.
Hence his recognition of the British
protectorats liz hint to all whom it
may concern that he doesn't wish his
position to be misunderstood

the Pan German and Nationalist jour
mails Or, Preuss. in introducing the
proposal, defended it as follows:
whether or not the colors black :
whfte-red were the correct colors of
the German empire Is much debated
by historians. quite possibly they
ere simply those assumed by the in
surgents Of Lutzow, The cofors black

ries In 1S4S) correspond with the con-
ceptions OF political freedom and union
Of all the Germans which have been
the leading ideas Of the nineteenth CEN
fury.
The Preussische Zeitung says that
to change your colors Is 20 show that
you are ashamed Of them. and gives
IL long harangue on the historical
glory Of the empire. 1t also suggests
that If a change Is 10 he made II
would be more In accordance with this
present condition of Germany II the
