Two Threatened Dangers:
IL One From Outside and the
Other From Inside" Al Ba-
lagh says:
However much the Egyptian people
in general and leaders in particular
crises since 1922, there Is no doubt that
they agree, after they have seen the
happenings of the last few years, ON
the fact that we are going backward
and that we are losing rights which we
used previously to enjoy. Yet Ger
tainly our feeling of this loss increases
whenever we look at our relations with
the English and at the change which
policy in their own country has under
gone and the effect this change on our
political rights.
In reality, we are now face to face
with two serious dangers which threat
en- our political and economic struc-
lures. On the one hand the political
rights which we have gained from the
English by our blood and money have
been SO curtailed and clipped in many
directions that we have now become
nearer to what we were before the
Great War than to what we were in
1922. And, on the other hand, the
economic crisis has shaken our eco
nomic structure to such an extent that
no landowner in Egypt can say that
he really owns his land

Unemployed Reduced
Further In Austria.
Neues Wiener AbendbIatt, Vienna
During the second half of September
the rolls Of the unemployed were still
further reduced by the removal Of the
names Of 2,l64 persons. Those remain
ing dependent on charity and industrial
insurance for their maintenance now
total 1929. During this period Of
the corresponding month last year
there was an increase of Z38 in the
ranks of the workless. 1t will be seen,
therefore, that the noticeable improve
ment in trade has benefited so far al
most 2,500 persons directly and q gross
total of some 10000 in their families
indirectly. Resumption of demand for
clothing, including hats and shoes, and
new requirements from manufactures
of wood and stea, are credited with
being the source of this satisfactory
development which has produced a
greater optimism for the future. The
condition is particularly significant In
view Of the fact that few people, II any.
were removed from the unemployed
lists in 1882.
