SEIZURE OF EGYPT SCORED AS ROBBERY Great Britain's Legal Position Branded as That of High wayman by Folk Washington. Aug. 35. I.'kening Great Britain's legal position in Egypt to that of a highwayman, Jo seph W. Folk, counsel for the Egyp tian Peace Delegation, told the Sen ate Foreign Relitions Committor to day that the Versailles Treaty pro posed to validate the "robbery"' of Egyptian independence. Having occupied Egypt after con struction of lite Sues canal under the pretext of protecting the Egyptians trom rebels, he said, Great Britain in 1914 "seized the Egyptian govern ment and now proposed uruler the Treaty to reduce her to a subject na tion. The Treaty, he slid, would' make Egypt's grievance against Great Britain an : nternal question sol that it could not be dealt with by j the League of Nations. "Tile people of Egypt," he deflated, "want a League of Nations which will ] protect their independence and not I destroy it. They ash you not to derv - them that self-determination fur, which more than a million Egyptians fought in the war just ended.'- Ot-eupnfion Temporary The delegation sent to Paris c< n ference by the Egyptian representa tive assembly, Mr. Folk said, were held in "virtual imprisonment'' and were not permitted to even send a representative to the United States. He declared the protectorate claimed by Great Britain over Egypt was "the same sort of protectorate that a high way man would claim over your pocket book." Great Bi itain had repeatedly pledged be said, that her occupation •( Egypt would be temporary and h asked that a clause be written into the Treaty giving Egypt the right to appeal to the league council. Re publican members of the committee suggested, however, that the League was to be controlled by the same powers as made the Treaty, and that Great Britain's rights in Egypt al ready had been recognized formally by the American Slate Department. Referring to the outbreaks against British rule in Egypt, lie said, Gteat Britain had "suppressed" the news of what was taking place anil did not want the United States especially to learn the facts if it could be helped.

B. Altendorf, formerly of the United States Military Intelligence Department, reciting his experience as an American secret service agent in that country. Dr. Altendorf. the son of a Polish banker in Cracow, Austrian Poland, abandoned a medical course in the University of Vienna at the out break of the war and tied to Mex ico, where he was offered a po sition as a German spy to operate against the United States by Kurt Jahnke, head of the German secret service in Mexico. "With pretended reluctance, but with secret joy I accepted," he said, "and at once found myself in a po sition to render valuable service to the Allies in general and to the United States in particular." He opened communication with the border as a volunteer worker to the Military Intelligence Department, he claims, and was later sworn in as a special agent of the Military In telligence Department. Chief Praises Work The association states that it lias investigated his claims and that Brigadier General Malborough Churchill, the head of the Military Intelligence Department, "spoke in terms of the highest praise of the zeal and trustworthiness of Dr. Altendorf and the great value of the services he rendered."
