this prolonged inquiry is siiiipl_y to find out whether t_lie.supply ot' wntei- brought dowii to Egypt, by the great river can he increased, and, is so, by when iuiosiis.

Egypt,” as we have often hcurd. Every raising of tlhe level of the Nile 'at Khart-ouiii means an extension ol the .area of land in Egypt which-L-'an be irrigated all the your round, ond, therefore, an increasceoi the cotton crop, among others, upon which Egypt): prosperity and Lrincnsliii-e's welfare depeii`d.' Iv

Now Sir William Gnrstiii lins prov-

ed that at present t.hc»White Nile contributdl almost. nothing to the fertillzin . flood which combs down

will leave behind tliciii ri monument that will probably ciiduru long :titer all evidence of those erected by an earlier civilization shall have passed away.”-’ '

Lord Cromer, in his covering des-

patch, agrees that thc grunt scheme should be adopted generally, though it cannot be carried out all at once. It would involve a_total expenditum ,oi .$121,400,000-an Egyptain ,pound .is-worth £1 0s Sid-of which £E18,- 000,000 would be spent in the Sou- , dan and 158,400,000 iii Egypt.. The works would occupy at least lroiii ‘ ton to fifteen years. i Lord Croiuer proposes, first oi all,

to spend £l92/1,000 it your on i'urthui~ investigations by the Public Works Department, 'over which Sir Williaiu Gurstiii presides as Under Secretary. Ho first. proposi-s to spend £E5,<1-(ii'i,- 000 ss follows: In providirgg middle Egypt with peruniiliil irrigxttioii, £El,000,000; in reorganizing Egyp- titin railways, £E3,()0(i,000; iii mls- ing the new Assouuii dniu, £E5(>(i,. 000, and in rciiiodclling thi- lliisottn and llaiiiicttu lirniiclios oi' the rixer, £E90(i,l)0().

The problem il, thorcfore, to ini-

prove the channel of the White Nile in such s way that it will odd to the Lower Nile tloodund also carry more water during the dry season. At pre- nent as much as eighty por cent. of the vast quantity of water that flows from Lakes Victoria. and Albert into the White Nile is lost. on its passage through the swamps between Lada and Fashoda.

lslrllg 0 liver.

Sir William Gnrstin proposes to

cut an entirely new channel for the river. ~dver 200 miles long, to the eastward ol its present course, and thus avoid the marsh country, which "has an aspect of desolation beyond the power of words to describe." He Would also regulate the outflow from the lakes by dams. Alternately, il’ this schema proves to bo ton costly

_ or difficult, he would train thc chun-

xiel known as the Bahr-cl-Gcbel by dsmming the tributaries and plant- ing umbntch trees at intervals 'for hundreds of miles. By either plan ho bellsves that he could add fifty per cent. to the volume of the White Nile at Khartoum.

Sir William Garstln also sketclios

great projects for regulating the Blue Nile, at A point several hundred miles _above Khartoum. For politi- cal reasons he sets asidc the scheniu for damming Lake Tsrum on the Abysslnlan platoau and making it into n.__reservoir for Egypt/s water supply. He would also dan/i the Riv- er Gash, which at prcscnt runs dry during half theycar. and would thus irrigate the plain round Knssalrt. All these schemes nood to bo studied with s.. large-scale map, as thc late Lord Salisbury used to say, for their

magnitude to bo realized. 1
