' Outlines for the two conflicting glans to defend the oil-izlch Middle ast became clearer Monday as indications grew that both the United States and Britain will join Turkey and Iraq in their defence alliance this year. The propsed coalition would extend the West- gi defence network clear across me Middle East. However. Egypt, backed by lyria and Saudi Arabia. is going ahead with plans for a non-West- ern defence grouping. composed exclusiwly of Arab states and probably not including Iraq., Monday. Egypt asked the Arab Igague to convene a meeting of Arab prime ministers to discuss her pact propsal. The plan was re- vealed Sunday when Egypt and Syria announc ” they had signed an agreement with Saudi Arabia's approval. for forming the new organization.
