EGYPT IS VIRTUALLY IN
STATE OF REBELLION
Startling Declaration of British
War Secretary Churchill in the
House of Commons.

London. - Defending the military
service bill in the house Of commons,
Winston Spencer Churchill, secretary
for war, declared that the whole 'of
Egypt was in virtual state or lnSur'
rection. The position was so danger
Gus, he added, that the government
had to appeal to men on the point OF
rehabilitation to return and save
their comrades from being murdered.
This declaration by the war secre-
tary was brought about by the re-
marks Of Sir Donald MacLean, who
had said that Great Britain was gross
ly pverlpsured with respect "a the
strength of the army Mr.. Churchill
asked if he followed what was taking
place in almost every country at the
present time, and, if so, how could he
say that there was overinsurance In
keeping 100000 men for every pur
pose, including ten divisions on the
Rhine and four divisions in the home
country, less than the number kept
here in the peaceful days before the
war,
Only three days ago, continued the
secretary, a situation developed III
Egypt which was If very farreachinG
danger and which made it necessary
to appeal to ,he men who were collect
ed at various parts for rehabilitation
to go back and help their comrades
and save them from being murdered.
The whole Of Egypt was virtually in a
s.ate of insurrection.
Had Sir Donald read Of what was
taking place OIL the Black sea, in Hun.
gary and on the whole frontier of
those small states which were guar.
antced protection by the League of
Nations? Sir Donald had said, con-
tinued the secretary, that the German
army was to be reduced to 100000 men
and that the Germans were to have no
Boy Scouts That, the. speaker Gs'
serted, was what the allies were going
to demand, but had the Germans
agreed to it, and was there any chance
of their agreeing to it If the allies
divested themselves of all their forces
at the present time.
"The government" said the secre-
tary, "has to face the real facts. II
we squaundered our forces at the pres
ent time, before cur terms are secured,
with Europe" conditions Of increas-
ing gravity and perplexity, tllen we
should throw away with both handstall
hn np
millions Of our men during four years."
The Liberal opposition had propos-
ed a series of amendments to the mill
tary service bill, which, Mr.. Churchill
declared, were intended to wreck the
bill. There was no truth in the accu-
sation that the government had rot
tried the voluntary system. The gov
ernment had tried, and would try, ev-
cry means under the voluntary system.
