The Government was not in phation to make a public statement presently. It was undecided whether to give notice of the July termination of agreement or allow it to continue for another year.

Mr. Brittain: "Will the views of China be taken into account?"

Mr. Lloyd George: "All relevant viewa will be taken into account

There is no reason wby Eath these demands should not be mat in a sympathetic spirit, pro vided only that the only object which British merchants have in view-equality of opportunity-is ret placed in jeopardy.

London, June 24. The Labour Conference has passed a resolution arging fall cognition of the rights of Egyptians to independent responsible ercment and the limitation of British action in Egypt to that which = responsible Nationalist Government freely consented.

TROUBLE IN HUNGARY.

Londoo, Jans 24. :.

A boycott of Hungary is proclaimed by the International Trade Union Conference at Amsterdam owing to the white terrer in Hungary which has led to the stoppage of railway, postal, and telegraphic com- munication between Austria and Hungary. Non-social democrat rail waymen in Austría are opposing the strike and succeeded in getting a train through. Consequently Vienna railwaymen struck, completely holding up Austrian goods and traffic. Meanwhile Hungary is re- taliating by withholding supplies from Austria.
