Egypt jeers at Britain. Cartoonists poke fun at the lion.

Egypt jeers at Britain. Cartoonists poke fun at the lion. This cartoon, typical of the wave of nationalist feeling which has blown up in Egypt, appeared in one of the best vernacular newspapers of the country. It shows the British lion, perched on the back of an Egyptian, recoiling from the ferocity of Mussolini, who is brandishing a sabre. On right, the Emperor of Abyssinia is seen climbing into view. Cartoons of this type are at present enjoying a vogure, most of them being extremely virulent.
