Egypt, Sudan Rush Troops Up To Border New Middle East Incident Scored By British Press By WILLIAM J. FOX United Press Staff Correspondent Egypt and the Sudan rushed troops, political commissars and armed police to a disputed border area today in a new Middle East incident denounced by the British press as a "land grab" by Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser. A statement issued in Khartoum, capital of the 2-year-old Sudanese republic, accused Egypt of trying to bring the mineral-rich border areas into the new SyrianEgyptian Republic and settle b\ force Egypt's claim to a" larger share of the waters of the Nile. A communique issued today in Cairo .said Sudanese forces had moved- into an Egyptian border area in “flagrant violation” of an 1899 treaty and of Egyptian Sovereignty. It asked for a peaceful settlement, called for withdrawal of the troops and denied Sudanese charges Egypt wanted the valuable mineral resources. Rival elections on both sides of the border brought to a fiery head the long-standing border dispute. Sunday is holding general elections on Feb. 27 Egypt is holding a plebiscite Feb. 21 on setting up the United Arab Republic with Syria. The dispute was so serious Su’danese Premier Abdullah Khalil dispatched Foreign Minister Mohammed Mahgoub to Cairo, I.OOC miles away, today to try to reach a settlement. Khalil tried to read: Nasser by telephone Monday but was told he was busy. The Khartoum dispatch said so far there had been no fighting in the disputed area. The Sundan, whose 5,000 - man armed force- is no match for Egypt's Communist-equipped armies, announced it was taking '‘security precautions" in the border area. The British Foreign Office withheld comment bu t diplomatic sources said the sudden crisis j foreshadowed “empire building” : i as an outstahding feature of the 1 , newly 1 ., created..
