Fear Expressed for
Prince Of Wales While
Visiting in Cairo

London, June ll.-There is much
apprehension here concerning the
safety Of the Prince of Wales, who
arrived at Cairo, the last stop
on his homeward journey, with
the exception of short visits at Malta
and Gibraltar. Those who are fear
full point to the anti-English feeling
in Egypt and the recent assassina-
tons Of foreigners. They criticize
strongly the decision to have him
visit Cairo and say there will be a
distinct feeling Of relief when il is
known he is safely aboard the Re-
nown again.
All messages from Cairo give the
impression that the welcome given
him by the natives was a cool one.
The Outlook says regarding the
visit to Cairo:
"Of all the unfortunate moments
to select for the princes visit to
Cairo, this seems about the worst.
To expose the prince in the streets
of Cairo under the protection OF an
incompetent police force is to take
4 very big risk without any compen-
satins advantage whatever.
