Foreign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd (old the Commons British troops in the Arabian peninsula have been alerted and commanders "given discretion within certain limits to take military action."
Socialists shouted warnings Brit- ain may be heading toward n "second Suez" and demanded Par- liament be told before any troops go into action.
Lloyd accused "outside" forces of stirring up the revolt against the sultan and defended Britain's right to answer a friend's call for assistance-with troops if neces- sary.
Lloyd told the Commons "no British troops are. as far as I am aware. at the moment on Muscat soil."

The foreign secretary was asked about reports that the rebels were fusing arms of American origin- .possibly supplied Saudi Arabia by the United States under a mutual aid agreement.
"I have no knowledge that the arms are of American origin." lLloyd replied. "All we know is 'that they are modern arms in the jerea that must have come from outside the territories of Muscat." i Some British newspapers have suggested Saudi Arabia inspired the revolt in order to seize lands for exploitation by Ameican oil interests.
Britisn has had treaty relations with the Oman and Muscat sultan- ate since 1839. but unlike the lab- iulously rich oil sbekhdoms of Ku- Iwsn and Qatar it is not a British I protectorate.

Mr. Smallwood said Newfound lend lost 8l0,0W.Ml annually in customs duties "as well as other sources of revenues" by joining Canada.
