The official view of the State Department is that over since 1922 Washington has proceeded in its relations with Cairo on the amp on that Egypt was an indepen- dent sovereign stato.
Oficials also point out that the proposed treaty cannot possibly conflict with Britain's special in torests because the second article of the treaty excludes from arbi- tration all questions involving the rights of other parties and therefore it fully protects Britain's interests..
