London. March 17.—A storm is
working lip over the publ.cation b>
public servants of information which
tame into their possession in the
course of their official careers. The
immed'ate occasion is Mr. Winston
Churchill's story of the war. Angiy
oucstions arc being asked in parlia
ment and it is publicly announced that
the cabinet has appointed a commit
tee to consider the whole problem.
It is rather late in the day to make
all this fUK3 aiiout publication of war
documents. for generals, admirals
and ministers in all lands, including
ours, have during the last three years
I <-cn inundating the European and
American public with a flood ol
l emlniscences, explanations, criti
cisms. attacks and defences on Hie
conduct of operations, either witii
the great war or the great peace, in
which they were engaged. Warriors
on land and on f-a have displayed
unprecedented eagerness to inform
the public as to their own share in
the great victory, and as to how muen
more brilliant that share would have
been but for the wrongheaded ness or
stupidity of some collaborator. Like
.1 ullus Caesar, they mean to live in
history not merely through their
battles but »lso through their com
mentaries upon them.

sponsibility for particular parts of
th* Treaty of Versailles, and where
blame haa been attached to them
either by opponents or supporters
for the form In which those parts
were cast, they have striven hard to
prove that It was attributable to
pressure which they were unable to
resist from other actors in the drama.
In each case, highly confidential in
formation is disclosed, secret docu
ments are used, cabinet and council
proceedings are published without the
slightest regard to precedent.
One disclosure has led to another,
one revelation has rendered another
inevitable. A general, admiral or
minister criticizes on the strength o!
half disclosed minutes or documents
some other public functionary, mili
tary. naval or political. What is the
latter to do? His reputation is at
stake. Is he not to be allowed to re
pair the omission or to correct tha
misquotation.’
Reports Misquoted.
Take the ease of the ministers who
play ed an important part in the con
duct of war or peace, and whose ac
tions have been subjected to malig
nant and persistent misrepresentation.
In attacking these ministers, s.atc
ments are made which if accepted by
the public would Irretrievably damage
or even destroy their reputation. In
formulating the attack, a document is
partially quoted or the report o' a
council or cabinet meeting is misquot
ed. The minister knows that full and
fair quotation would clear bln good
name of the imputation nought to be
cast upon it. Is he not to bo allowed
under those circumstances to publish
It? A mere denial would carry no
weight., The publication cannot con
ceivably effect any public interest, ‘t
would supply no information which
could pcrxe any possible enemy of his
country. Ia he not to be allowed to
use the only means available to re
deem his credit from the ruin of ac
cepted calumny? His critic has been
allowed to disclose secret information
without protest. Is he to be forbidden
to do so In seif defense? Fie claims
that lie served bin country faithfully,
to the best of his power*, in time of
crisis and peril. For that he is de
famed by men mho had access to ><•
erpt information and uso it freely
without criticism, ernsure or demur.
Why should hi* country deny him the
reme privilege for bis protection?
Protest Tardy.
That i» the case which the cabinet
committee will hate to consider.
W hatever general rules may be laid
down they must in all fairness take
' into account these exceptional cir
eumsianres. Those who are now tak
ing a prominent part in emphasizing
the enormity of giving to the public !
documents which were acquired In
public service had riot a word to say
when portions of those documents
were used for purposes with which
,they were in sympathy. Is it not
i rather late for them to protest now?
, There is such a thing as fair play
even when politicians are attacked.
So far as the British are concerned
the writing of books of the type a!
iuded to was started, 1 think, by
Field Marshal Lord French of Vpres
| in his book. “1014.” This work is
of the nature of an apologia ard the
writer, to assist in establishing his
rase, alludes to discussions with the ,
cabinet and docs not hesitate to quote
textual!}' secret memoranda and dis
patches written by himself and
ethers. The late admiral of the fleet.
Lord Fisher, gives in his book.
“Memories,” examples of his own in
tervention at war council meetings.
Cabinet Sessions Bared.
In his autobiography. "From Pri
vate to Field Marshal," which ap
peared some time later. Field Mar
shal Sir William riobertsou. who was
for over two years the confidential
adviser of th*e cabinet, and a« such
attended all war councils and most
war cabinet meetings, when it suits
his argument gives to the public his
recount of what passed around the
table. Though he does not quote se
cret documents textually. he de
scribes the proceeding and delibera
tions of the supreme war council,
interallied conferences and the war
cabinet, and refers to opinions of In
dividuals. In his recent speeches, he
has gone even further. A still more
recent work. "Sir Douglas Haig's
Command." is the result of eollabora- i
lion by two authors, of whom one i
at least held official position during
the war. being Sir Douglas Haig's pri
vate secretary when he was com
mander-In-ch:ef of the British arm;
in France. This hook i« even le's
reticent. It also is essentially an
rpolog'a and just if i :*ion of an in
dividual. To establish their case,
writers not only summarize some of
th» secret proceedings of the su
preme war council and war cabinet,
hut give extracts of their decisions.
There extracts are freely used as a
basis o’ animadversion on the council
and cabinet of that day. it is true
that some of the quotations arc slated
to be taken from French books previ
ously published, but others are not,
which arouses curiosity as to the
source of the knowledge displayed.
No Bounds to Wrath.
In addition, there hate been end
less articles in magazines snd news
papers, some signed, some written
anonymously, all attacking cither
ministers, generals or admirals, and
most of them clearly supplied with
secret information by men who must
have acquired it in their offieinl ca
pacity. As to all these disclosures,
protest has hitherto been silent. P.ut
when it is indicated that replies are
fort liecni! tig. end that these te
are forthcoming, and that these re
plies will reveal the real nature of
misquoted documents or proceedings,
the wrath of the-assailants and their
sympathizers knows no bounds.
What happened in reference to
transactions of secret conclaves held
in connection with the framing of
the p-ace treaty, affords an illustra
tion of the way these revelations oc
cur. The question of publication of
these proceedings was definitely dis
cussed at Versailles after the signa
ture of the peace treaty with Ger
many on the "Stli of June, 1019, by
President Wilson, representing the
United States, by M. ricmenceau and
Sinton, representing France; M. Son
nino, representing Italy; M. Makino,
representing Japan, and myself. This
is what occurred on that occasion.
For the first time T <juote from my
own notes written at the time.
Object-, of rnblication.
President AVilson was strongly ct
the opinion that these documents
ought to be treated as purely private
conversation, and he objected to com
munication of accounts given in notes
of private conversation in which all
present had spoken their minds with
great freedom, as improper use might
afterward be made of these docu
ments. On tlie other hand, he did not
object to notes being communicated to
special individuals in the personal
confidence of members of the council.
Though he looked upon certain state
ments, conclusions and actions as be
ing official and therefore available in
appropriate offnactual conversa
tions were private. In the United
States no one had the right to claim
documents of this kind. President
AA'ilson's vl w war, that each govern
ment should take the course tradi
tional ip its own country, with the
clear arid distinct understanding that
no one should under any circum
stances make the rrot.es verbal pub
lie. M. Clemencoau did not think that
such documents could he regarded as
private property, whilst M. SonninQ
thought they need not be considered
as official documents.
Give* Warning.
For my own part I was anxious to
know what the precedents were. I also
felt bound to enter a caveat tiiat if
attacks should he made on the polit
ical heads 1 might be forced in par
ticular cases to refer to these notes
and I gave warning that I might
have to do so unless protest was then
made. M. Clemeneeau agreed so fsr
that it might be impossible to refuse
extracts from the process verbeaux
to prove part leu lah facts. It will be
observed that I was first to safeguard
the interest, of persons who. I felt
certain, would be attacked for their
share in the treaty. I am the last to
take advantage o£ the proviso.
What followed? M. Ciemenceau was
bitterly attacked by bis political op
ponents for surrendering the French
rights. President Wilson was also at
tacked hy his political opponents for
his assent to provisions of the treaty.
In self defense they authorized publi
cation of secret reports of the Paris
meeting.
Impression I nfalr.
M. Clemenccau entrusted his de
fense to M. Tardieu. M. Tardieu In
his book. "The Truth Abouth the
Treaty," gives most of his attention to
the drawing up of that International
instrument, but deals with the last
portion of the war period and quotes
from proceedings of interallied con
ferences and also of the supreme war
council, giving opinions of Individuals.
He does the same with the delibera
tions of the peace conference. In fact,
the whole book is based on interna
tional proceedings cf secret nature. M.
Toincare In maligning his rivals has
not refrained from making full use
of information which came to his
knowledge as president of the repub
lic. For example. In his article "Sou
venirs et Documents,in I.e Temps
of the 12th of September, 19111. he
quotes in extense a letter of April,
19n. from himself as president of the
republic to the prestdent of the coun
cil, M. Clenienceau. and a letter from
me In reply to the president of the
council. This correspondence referred
to the period of occupation hy the al
lies of the l«ft hank of the Rhine.
According to Signor N'itti, M. Poincare
makes somewhat similar disclosures
in his articles published in the Revue
de Deaux Mondes. All the«e dlsclo
sures were parttal, truncated and
therefore misleading. They did not
give the publio a complete account of

for some distance ve skirted the

hills and valleys of sand reaching
away into the distance. on the other
the beautiful Nila valley with Its ir
rigated f irms. Its stately palm groves,
and Its peculiarly shaped bouses built
of sun dried bricks. We had not gone
tar until we pas«»d a native burying

with its stone marker *t either end
reminded m» of the camels saddle

Finds Hrarab.
All morning 1 had been casting my
eye to the ground every little white,
hoping that 1 might r,*» one of the
famous Egyptian beetles, the scarab.
At last I was rewarded, for there on
the Hand near a email pile of rocks
I saw t!»e shining hack glistening ns
though it was made of jet. My

trying tp sell mottle of the client)

I would buy that from hint. He p vk

was my find, and now he must get
one cf th» scarab balls for me if he
wanted a reward. At onto every
camel boy was busy digging in the
•and all about, and in a short time
one came running yith the prize and
claimed his fee.
To me these scarabs are of tnoic

Next to the Apia tomb", the
most interesting one at Sakkara la
the tomb of Ti, secretary to Rantesea
the Great, and a large landowner. The
tomb originally stood above ground,
but now is almost wholly covered
' with Hand. The mural reliefs and
carving* are among the finest and
best preserved examples of ancient
Egyptian art. T.y studying these re
liefs one gets a splendid idea of the
life of the people of that faroff
day, for it is portrayed hers in a
most wonderful way—farming,plow
ing, reaping, winnowing wheat, feed
ing cattle, lams treading out the seed,
