Churchill-Holds Threat Of Vote . Over labor Gov'i

LONDON. Nov. 23 - (Reuters)- Winston Churchill tonight left the threat cf a life-or-death vote hang- ing over the Labor Government af- ter a House of Commons row con- cerning Egyptian policy.

The government took his chal- lenge so seriously that two Minis- ters cancelled air reservations which avou-id have put them in North Am- erica when the matter Is up for de- bate. They are Hector Mc-Nell. State secretary for Scotland. and Hilary Marquand, Pensions Minis- ter,

Churchill. his jaw jutting ang- rily. demanded that the govemment promise a full-dress debate on Egypt. before it ships 16 new Brit- ish tanks which Egypt has ordered.

Otherwise. he said. he would press the "motion of censure" which he presented in Commons Wednesday night. and which might bring down the govern- ment unless it could rally some of its supporters who have been critical of Egyptian policy.

The motion regrets the govern- ment's unwillingness to suspend lthe shipment of arms. including tanks. to Egypt while the 1936 Ang- lo-Egyptian treaty is being chal- lenged by the Egyptian Govern- ment-.

After Churchill's noisy clash with Herbert Morrison, Deputy Prime Minister. in the Commons. Con- servative spokesmen said they would wait to see what Foreign Secretary Bevin had to say in Commons next week after his talks with the Egyptian Foretgn Minister. Salah El Din Bob.

If they are dissatisfied. they will demand a debate on Chu;iThiII's motion or-intmduce a new one. O
