BRITISH PLAN OF WITHDRAWAL FROM EGYPT lS PROTESTED

LONDON, May 25. - Winston Churchill told the House of Com mons today he feared the British plan to withdraw from Egypt would seriously prejudice the hope of gaining the aid of America in the Palestine question"
 Churchill said if the government continued to pursue it's present course it would ruin our interests in the Middle East, destroy our communications in the Indian and Pacific Oceans and sever the life line of the British Empire
 Efforts to find other bases to substitute for Egypt, he declared, would bring complaints of imperial ism and Russia would renew and reinforce her demands for a base or bases in the Eastern Mediterran- can"
 The former Prime Minister said depending on the use of Palestine "as a jumping off ground for re- occupation of the Suez Canal zone in an emergency would leave oul- selves without American aid and would leave us with the most pro- fitless task that can be imagined" :"
