Britain's Special Position
Cairo. August 24.
The Abyssinian question has brought a new limelight to bear on Britain's special position in Egypt and the Sudan. Two posel- bilities have so far been envisaged by local opinion first, Egypt's position vis-a-vis England in the ease of an Anglo-Italian conflict: and second, the occupation of the Lake Tana district with or wit- hout Egyptian detachments.
