to hear that at a Campaign Meet
one evening recently, you had
been positively seen amid a listen

putations loud and crude and

: ! take it that your presence
there conclusively doth show, you
still retain concern about the Is
lands veal or woe, and that you
still forlornly hope to find some

sagaciously on next Election Day.
Well; that is UP to you, old Man,

Egypt 10 Curb News
About Royal Family
BY the Assoeioied Press

CAIRO, July 8.-Foreign cor
respondents and Egyptian jour-
nalists soon may face prison terms
for publishing anything about
Egypt's royal family without writ
ten permission.
The Wafdist government, which
came into Office on a platform
pledging abolition of censorship,
is sponsoring legislation stating:
ANY one who publishes in the
without written permission from
press or in other publications
the Minister of Interior, news,
pictures, drawings or symbols of
the personal affairs of the royal
family, or any of its members.
shall be punished with a term of
imprisonment up to six months
and/or a fine of f100 ($280)."
The legislation seems virtually
assured of passage unless the gov
ernment changes it's plans.
Egypt's Press Syndicate, a jour-
nalists' organization, is on record
against the bill. but offered to
accept a watered-down version
with maximum penalty of a
E100 fine.
The measure would top already
stringent censorship on royal news
or pictures coming into or going
out of the country.
