nobody quite realizes the importance of the occasion until he reads
about it afterwards. At the Nile Reservoir all this happened in due
order with the necessary local variations. The officials wore red
tarbushes instead of top-hats, and every sensible person carried a
cotton umbrella over his head.
But apart from the ceremonial, the scene was deeply interesting.
If the day’s routine was insignificant, it was because the
overpowering presence of the Dam itself dwarfed every other
presence. And the names of those assembled there recalled vividly
the thrilling history of Egypt during the last twenty years. There were
statesmen and diplomatists, soldiers and engineers, men of
business and men of letters, all of whom, in some field or other, had
done their part in building up the fallen country. Some, too, were
there who, submitting contentedly before the logic of accomplished
facts, burying old rivalries and animosities, had come in no unfriendly
spirit to witness the realization of much that it had once been their
policy to hinder. But if all the rest had been absent, the presence of
one man, the Chief, whose wise counsel and guiding hand had been
everywhere, would have been sufficient to represent all that these
twenty years have meant to Egypt. Well might Lord Cromer and the
irrigation engineers review their work with satisfaction. To them the
Reservoir means the successful culmination of a great policy long
and steadily pursued, nothing less than the establishment of the
prosperity of Egypt upon a sure and certain basis: for that is what the
regulation of the Nile involves. In Egypt, at any rate, they require no
formal monument. Their praise stands clearly writ on the face of
every cultivated field throughout the country.
CHAPTER X
BRITISH RULE IN EGYPT
‘With a regulating dam at a point on the river below its exit, the Albert Lake
could well be used to store up water during the rainy season, which would be
discharged into the river during the months of low supply. In this way a double
purpose would be served: the volume of the river in flood would be diminished,
and in summer would be largely increased. The lake has an enormous catchment
area, and it seems probable that its levels could be, without serious difficulty,
raised to the required height.’
