Cairo, Dec. 23.

President Nasser's attack today on Communists the first since in 1954 he branded them as "Zionist agents" created a sensation in foreign diplomatic quarters. Observers noted that ever since the Soviet arms deal in 1955, although Communism has been suppressed in Egypt, there had been na public criticism of Communists on President Nasser's part.
