ANCIENT CAIRO GREAT CITY
Egyptian Capital Has Figured Proml.
nently in Both NEUROLOGICAL and
Authentic History,

At the dawn of history a city is
known to have existed near the site
of modern Cairo, called Khere-ohe,
place of combat, because Horus and
Seth, of NEUROLOGICAL fame, fought
there. Seth found the body of his
brother Osiris cut into IA parts
and scattered the pieces, where
upon Isis, wife of Osiris, hunted
the fragments so that she might
erect monument for each. That Is
why SO many tOmbs of Osiris are en-
countered in Egyptian history.
Not until century before the Nor
man conquest, a modern period Of
Egyptian history, was the present
Cairo founded by Goher, leader of the
troops of the Fatimite Caliph Mulizz,
following the Egyptian conquest.
In the year Columbus discovered
America plague swept Cairo which
is said to have killed $4,000 persons
in a day. 1t was q century before
that when Cairo may be said to have
attained its zenith. After the plague
a period of violence, rapine and muir
der set in and sultans were en-.
throned and assassinated with dizzy
ing speed and informality. AS early
as the thirteenth century Christian
prosecutions took place. Since then
the city has been Islam.

Washington, Feb. 14-Another eff
fort to reach a compromise on article
ten of the peace treaty has failed
A poll Of the senate shows only
Twenty-Five Republicans willing to
support the compromise which mild
reservations submitted Wednesday.
Leading Democratic senator's, includ-
ing Senator Hitchcock, the minority
leader, reiterated their statements the
proposed mild" substitute was worse
than the original Lodge reservation.
A straw vote on treaty ratification
has been taken in the house. OF the
102 votes cast by the representatives,
twenty Democrats and eignty-twO Re
publicans, not one was in favor of
making the treaty the paramount issue
in the presidential campaign, nor for
a referendum unless such referendum
could be taken independently of all
else and entirely uncOnnected with any
political election.
Ninety-three were in favor of rati-
fication of the treaty in some form or
other, only nine, all Republicans, vot-
ing for fiat rejection.

COMMONS DEBATE.

Gates Prohibition.
LADY ASTOR PRAISES II
MIR. Chamberlain Declares Sugar lie
Dear Because We Use Greater
Amount in Place of Alcohol.

London, Feb. 14.-Debate on the ad.
dress in reply to the kings speech
from the throne was continued in the
house OF commons.
Sir Arthur Ii. Steel Maitland, Union
list, moved an amendment TO the adj
dress regretting the governments ex-
penditure had been allowed to continue
at so high n rae, with the consequent
depreciation Of the national credit and
an increase in the cost of living.
Austen Chamberlain, chancellor OF
the eXchequer, declared the govern
ment could not be blamed for the high
prices, which We're the result of world
causes. Among other things. he said,
the worlds sugar production was short
and because America was dry she
was using more sugar.
ITO add to the miseries of the world
the United States goes dry" Mr.. Cham
berlain declared.
A labor member Interrupted with
"lOr the benefit of the world"
Lady Astor added: "And humanity
as a whole" These interjections cali
ed forth laughter and cheers.
Mr. Chamberlain went on. because
the United States no longer drank al
cohol, they wanted an immensely in
creased amount of sugar to cOmpen-
safe. He would not say that the
United States should not have gone
dry" but the effect was distinctly
unfortunate. He thought moderate
drinkers, like himself, who seldom
touched sugar, but got his own sugar
out Of the alcohol he drank, were good
citizens.
Enumeratlng the conditions neces-
sary TO q return to a better state of
things, Mr.. Chamberlain said the first
was increased production throughout
the world. Manufacturers must use
improved methods to increase produc-
ton. Then it would be necessary for
the government to halt fresh borrow
Ing on the revenue account He as
serted his belief the government had
stopped and the national debt had
reached its highest point, the move
ment henceforth being downward.
Great Britain must fund its float
ing debt and then British credit would
improve rapidly. As long as there was
this vast mass Of floating debt It was
not correct q say the government
alone could control inHation-the
bankers must Cooperate.
The chancellor said he expected the
financial year would end rather more
fayorably than he believed when he
presented the revised budget last au-
tumn.
Revenues were coming in well and
prospects were good. If the country
was careful, its revenues were sufti-
cfent to face its obligations, to es-
+ablisli its equilibrium, TO pay its wa.
TO provide sinking fund and makr
substantial reduction in outstantin,
liabilities, he asserted.
Mr. Chamberlain pointed out Anglo
American exchange and Great Brit
aims TASK would he lghtened or rend-
cred more ditlicuIt-though its accom-
plshment would not be prevented ac-
cording to the wisdom or otherwise
with which other people, as we'll as
those of Great Britain conducted Their
affairs in these difficult days.
