Tories And Labour Left

Wingers In Agreement

London, July 11.

The British Left-wing Socialists and Mr Winston Churchill's Tories, two worlds apart on most issues, are finding common ground on the six-year-old post-war controversy with America over the atomic bomb.

Both the Left-wingers and the Tories think. Britain's role because of her major contribution to the basic research should be greater and on par with American development, control and use of atomic energy.

Middle East Defence

Landon, July 11.

The Conservative opposition in the House of Commons tonight queried the Foreign Minister, Mr Herbert Morrison, on the boarding of the Bri- tish steamer Empire Roach by an Egyptian armed guard from a corvette.

Mr Morrison had earlier told the Commons that the Empire Roach had been detained for 24 hours and that the Egyptian guard had looted the boatswain's store of goods worth £200,000 în addi- tion to wrecking the ship's radio.

He added that the commander of the Egyptian armed guard had given no reason for their action except that it had been committed on instructions.

Fallowing Mr Morrison's slate-test to the Egyptian Govern- ment, Conservatives cheered as ment for thoir unwarranted Mr Anthony Eden, deputy leaderInterference with the movement Bucz of the Opposition Party, asked, of shipping through the "Do you nod think that this Conal. deplorable meldent stems from
