Upper Egypt

2.

Mr. WEDGWOOD
asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he has any official reports of rioting in connection with the ejectment of villagers in Upper Egypt from lands recently acquired by the Viscomte Fortarce; and, if so, how many villagers were killed or  will ask His Majesty's Agent and Consul-General for a report.

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Mr. Acland)
I have no information on this subject, but will ask His Majesty's Agent and Consul-General for a report.

Mr. WEDGWOOD
Will it be convenient if I put down a similar question a week hence?

Mr. ACLAND
I will let the hon. Member know if I may.
