Official circles denied today that the Egyptian Ambassador to Great Britain, Dr. Hassan Nachat Pasha, had taken to Cairo the details of a new Palestine plan. The Ambassador was merely asked to ascertain the views of the Arab delegations still in Cairo on certain points of detail, it was said. Before his departure, it was learned, Dr. Nachat had several conversations with Colonial Secretary Malcolm Mac-Donald and carried to Cairo the replies to inquiries on several details.

Zionist circles here had no information about the Cairo discussions, beyond notification that Dr. Chaim Weizmann went to Cairo with Bernard Joseph, legal adviser to the Jewish Agency.
