CIVILIANS IN MALAYA NOT TO BE ARMED
London, May 17.The Colonial Secretary, Mr James Griffiths, today turned down the idea of arming civilians in Malaya to deal with guerilla attacks.
"Large numbers of nuxiliary police, including village guards, are already issued with arms and this policy is being extended," he told the Ilouse of Com- mons.
"An unduly wide distri-
bution of arms to civilians POCKET CARTOON would provide the terrorista
with a target which, if suc- cessfully attacked, would supply
them with much needed arms and ammuni- Lion."
Mr June Harron (Labuair) had asked the Minister's opinion on the "demand for a wide dis- tribution of arms to elvilians in during the Malaya
present troubles there.”
Mr Leonard Gominans (Con- servative) asked what was the object of Mr Malcolm Mac- |Donald's visit to Australia.
Grifiths replied: "Mr MacDonald is viritinit Australia the United member of 24 1
