ANGLO-AFGHAN TREATY.
BRITAIN READY TO RENEW. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. London, April 13. It is learned that a fresh treaty with Afghanistan is expected to be signed shortly, but there is anxiety in responsible quarters owing to the Amir’s vacillation. He definitely dropped negotiations lately, but since has solicited an interview with the head of the British Mission. It is understood Britain is prepared to renew’ the subsidy which has been withheld since the outbreak of disturbances in 1919, provided the necessary guarantees are forthcoming for the preservation of peace on the frontier. It is believed, the renewal of the treaty will have a quietening effect on the restless frontier tribes, and also prevent the Amir seeking financial aid from his Bolshevik neighbors.
