with these premises. Egypt is
a capitalist state with an econ
omy and society of that order.
There is no more disposition
on the part Of the new authority
in Egypt to change this basic
circumstance than there was on
the part Of Farouk and his as
soclates. In other words. the
question in their rainds is not
whether they should be with
the West but rather on what
terms and when they should
make such a commitment.
While the anti-foreign and
anti-British temper that was so
strong last winter has largely
died out, the leaders of the new
government are aware that it
might be rekindled by their po-
litical enemies. Their present
opinion is that they should
strengthen their domestic po-
litical position first, leaving the
door open for arrangement of
their relationship with the West
in the near future.

Eqypt Cannot Remain Neutral
New Government Being Urged to Make Commitment West
Middle East Would Be Great Battlefield in Actual Warfare

A strong element within the
new Naguib- Maher government
of Egypt is attempting to per-
Suade the general and his Prime
Minister to make an unequivocal
commitment to the West in the
cold war.
The reasoning of those who
are quietly pressing this point
of view has certain basic as
sumptions.
One is that Egypt cannot in
definitely remain neutral even
in a non-shooting war. Real
istically, they are aware that
in this phase Of the East West
conflict the political pressures
and the maneuverings for posi-
tions which may have strategic
value later already involve the
entire Middle East. If and when
actual warfare results, the
Middle East will be one Of its
great battleflelds. The classic
Importance of Egypt as a stra-
logically located bridge between
Asia and Africa has not been
lessened by the air age; it would
be a prime objective in any

edgment is that the Egyptian
economy is strongly and tradi-
tionally tied to the West-par-
ticularly to Britain. Egypt re-
quires machinery and industrial
products more than anything
else-exactly the things that
are unobtainable in any sig
niflcant quantity from the
Communist countries. In re-
turn, she must have a market
for her agricultural products,
particularly the long staple
cotton which has been exported
for years and in large quantity
to Britain.
OF a more personal nature
but certainly an element in the
official Egyptian thinking is
the obvious incompatibility of
communism and the religion of
Islam. While a Communist
movement in Egypt might be
tailored in the first instance to
avoid this religious chasm, the
informed Egyptian is aware
that If Communist control
should once be established the
next step would be oppression
of the Islamic faith-juSt as
already has happened in Soviet
Russia.

Naguib and Maher agree fully
