TORY MP HITS AT ATTLEE Rape Case Continues: JOHN CLARKES
Visit
To Red China SIDE GLANCES Criticised
By Galbraith
In SEATO Debate
London, Nov. 8.
Sir Walter Fletcher, Conservative, was in- volved in several clashes in the House of Commons today with Mr Clement Attlee, the Opposition leader, when he criticised the Labour delegation's visit to China.
"The great handicap which Mr Attlee and his friends suffered was that they went to Peking," he said. "That is no more typical of China than Washington is of the United States."

St Walter Fletcher sald Mr Attlee was ein record as remarking that It would be wiser to hand Fer. mesa over to Communist China. Would Mr Attice abide plebiscite in Formosa?
Mr Allice: "The suggestion made was that Formosa should be put under trusteeship of the United Nations for a period of years to find out what the people themelves want."
