MP Gives Grave Warning Over Conditions In Malaya

London, Dec. 14.

Air Commodore Arthur Harvey, Conserva- tive Member of a delegation of British Members of Parliament which visited Singapore and Malaya last September, said today that what he' had seen there had alarmed him,

"We went out feeling that plans for dealing with the emergency were going fairly well," he told a meeting at the Royal Empire Society. "But we came back to England feeling very depressed about most things we saw and quite alarmed about the future."

Air Commodore Harvey said the report of the dele- gation was now being drafted. He doubted whether it would show unanimous findings.

Malaya, he said, was torn by strife and confusion, He felt that the British Government did not tackle the problem of Malaya at an early enough stage. Wise advice was ignored.

A junior Minister should be made responsible for seeing that equipmont went out as quickly as possible, but he added: "I still a long time think it will take before it is clear."
