LONDON, Aug.

6 (A.A.P.). When the Egyptlon Senate meets to-night, the Premier, Nokrashy Pasha, is expected In an important speech, to demand the revision of the Anglo-Egyptian Treaty of 1936, and in effect ask mat Britain quit Egypt altogether, including the canal zone. which, under the treaty, Is garrisoned bv British trooDs. It expected that Nokrashy Pasha will ask for full Independence for I Egypt by the removal of British troops, and also ask lor revision of the status of Sudan which at present is governed jointly by Britain and Egypt. Amone the Sudanese themselves there are two parties one, which many British believe to be Egyptian sponsored, favoring union with Egypt and another, which many Egyptians believe to be British sponsored, demanding Sudanese." When the treaty revision takes place.

Sudan, it Is believed, will be one of the thorniest problems In the negotiations. The Anglo-Egyptian Treaty is of twenty years' duration. It provided for the termination of occupation of Egypt by British iorces, Dut lor tne continuance oi the British garrisoning of the canal zone. Before the outbreak of the war Britain had an infantry division In Egypt, which she reinforced by additions of Indian troops, who took up battle stations in the Western Desert, to be followed by Australians, and later by more British, till the whole of Egypt was practically a British armed camp. At that time Egypt was not In a position to deny British action there, and to-day she has only a conscript army of 20.000, and a very small air force and navy, but she has amassed as a result of the war vast economic reserves, and Is stated to have 400,000,000 balances In London.

On the other hand, the war has taught that Egypt Is vitally Im portant to untisn communications. The revision of the treaty may not be altogether one sided, and It may turn out that Britain has some demands to make from Egypt. destrovers went to work running back and forth between supply ships and the fleet vessels. The transfer of supplies was the largest ever carried out, and went off smoothly and methodically as it In a big department store. All transfers were made by what the navy calls "whlp-pul-lev" system, rigged on a heavy rope strung between the destroyer and supply ship.

The supply convoy was protected by more destroyers than the remnants of the Japanese fleet could muster. vinous auk Ilcrlin Press Comment BERLIN, Aug. 6 (A.A.P.). The newspapers for the first time comment In detail on the Potsdam communique. The pro-Russian "Berlin Zcltung," which Is the organ of the city administration, says: "If we are honest we will admit that we expected to see Germany split Into parts under different administrations without any political freedom.

We Instead find Just the opposite. The victors have not waited for us to ask for the reconstruction of Germany, but help us toward It." The Communist party organ, "Deutsche Volkszeltung," says: "It Is Impossible to rate the three great Powers' generosity too highly," LONDON, Aug. A (A.A.P.). The red and white Polish flag to-day flies over Stettin. The Poles have taken nver the administration of the city, whlcn has been renamed Szczeclna.

DOMINANT LAVAL Confusion at Petain Trial "The Age" Special Correspondent in London. The manner In which the experienced political brain of Pierre Lavnl has dominated the Pelain Irial during the last days raises some interesting specula-lion concerning Laval's own trial, ahich is due to take place about two m'onths' hence. It is clear from Laval's remarkable performance at Pe-tain's trial, during which he took effective control of proceedings from the presiding judge, that he intends to make a bold dra matic attempt to reverse public! opinion about himself. I Laval presented In court a very diff'T rnw0r.n friri the1 rrit 'v i hat pre i'- Pal val luv t' ass 'i km So complete was Laval's domination of the court that the public prosecutor intervened only Infrequently, and then rather hesitatingly, and hostile jurors who were truculent in the early stages of the trial were reduced to almost complete silence. In five hours of evidence Laval had secured advance publicity for most of the arguments which he will use In his own defence a tremendous gain for him.

If at his own coming trial Laval Is able to snatch authority (rom the presiding Judge and count once again for an indul-1 gent hearing for his practised I oratory, he may conceivably sue- ceed in winning over a large section of influential French opinion. If on the contrary the court tries to keep him within the limits of relevance his counsel Is bound to invoke the latitude i given him at this trial and say he Is being denied justice. Laval's performance has undoubtedly done much to confuse proceedings at the present trial, a fact which the defence has gleefully recognised. Nobody In France could now predict Just when the trial will finish nor how It may turn. OPEN LETTER TO AMERICA Tory Faith in Labor LONDON, Aug.

8 (A.A.P.) Mr. Qulntin Hogg, Conservative member for Oxford, in an open letter to Americans, declared that, although he was a Conservative born and bred; he waa confident that Britain's foreign policy would In no way be weakened by the advent of the Labor Government. Referring to the American attitude to the election result, Mr. Hogg states: "I make no complaint that you found the result surprising, but it Is rather more dlmcult to excuse the tendency of your newspapers to criticise us for choosing a Labor Government. So long as the present administration tries, as I am sure It will, to maintain the honor and dignity of this country abroad and protect Its Interest, Mr.

Bevln will be able to count not only on the support of a considerable Parliamentary majority, but also that of a united people. "The Wall-street financiers will be ill advised if they try to make you think that the stability and credit of Great Britain are not as strong as ever. We expect no nonsense from the new Government. British traditions are among the best In the world, and If this or any other Government were to attempt to undermine or interfere with them, the Government, not the traditions, would be the sufferers. "So, my timorous American friends, take heart.

If there Is any economic difficulty between Britain and America It Is far more likely to be due to your tariff policy than to any economic weakness here. Whatever the British people think of one another, tney mean to make the country happy, great and prosperous." The Allied Control Commission has announced the abolition of restrictions on the movement of Finnish merchant ships, war ships and aircraft, the restoration of the Kotka and Abo air fields to Finnish control, and the resumption of postal and telephonic lions between Finland and Allied and neutral countries. Belsen Grime Admitted LONDON, Aug. 6 (A.A.P.). The ex-commandant of Belsen Concentration Camp.

Kramer, who is awaiting trial at Celle, has signed a statement confessing to war crimes. The text of his confession can not be disclosed at present be cause it might prejudice his trial, but It is stated on good authority that Kramer was Involved in other war crimes apart from Belsen camp. The statement will be lead at the Belsen trial. Kramer is in prison with 47 others, with whom he will be Jointly charged with Ill-treating and causing the deaths of 20,000 persons. The trial Is not likely to begin on the scheduled date of August 12.

It will probably commence early In September-. TOUCH BLUFF IIV IBriiniiis Fleet Hope to Bombay, "The great impostor" was fln- ally sunk as a block ship off the I Normandy coast on day. BOMBING TEST BY R.A.F. Experiments in Germany "The Age" Special Correspondent In Bremen. The R.A.F.

is still bombing Germany. A huge concrete submarine shelter at Farge, near Bremen. Is being used as a practice target from the high-level bombing to test the penetration. The bombs contain only a sma detonating charge. The experiment Is expected to produce useful data for bombing similar targets in the Far East.

When the Germans heard about the bombing they evacuated the area for miles around. The R.A.F., however, declared that this was a precision bombing experiment, and that the danger area was only within a 500 yards radius of the target. The shelter, which is about 430 yards long and 100 yards wide, with a reinforced concrete roof. Is being bombed by Lnncasters flying from England. After each bomb has been dropped there Is a nan ior two or tnree days while scientists make the detailed examination of the hole in the concrete.

The R.A.F. expects that it will be six weeks before it finishes the experiment. Then the shelter will be properly blown up from the ground by the navy. GOERING'S PLANE SOME VALUE Medical Experiment "The Ate" Special Correspondent in For an hour on Sunday eight French children suffering from whooping cough flew at 9000 feet between Farts and Le Havre In Goerlng'a private Junkers 62 plane.

This has been revealed by a naval spokesman for Admiral Nlmitz, who explained that the chanee In the Okinawa command was the result of the Joint chiefs of staff directive, and In accordance with arrangements made in conference at Guam. Admiral Nlmitz will relinquish all control of the Ryukuas, except for naval air forces, naval bases and installations and naval forces operating in Ryukuan areas and East China sea unaer tne command of Vice-Admlral J.
