EGYPT'S FREEDOM FROM BRITAIN CALL FOR BOYCOTT (Rec. 10.40 a.m.) LONDON, Oct. 17. Nokrashy Pasha has threatened to close down the university colleges if students embarrass the Egyption Government in its dealings with 'Britain, says Reuter's Cairo correspondent. Nokrashy allowed this to become known after a demonstration by thousands of Fuad University students, who drew up a Note for sending to Britain. The Note said: "(British Imperialism must end. Peaceful means have failed, and blood must therefore be spilled." _ The students expressed dissatisfaction with the Egyptian Government's alleged inaction on the evacuation of British troops from Egypt and the Sudan. The students called for a boycott against British goods, troops, and officials.
