Mr. Robarts de- rided any idea of compulsion in medical care.

British Army sources said it now is certain the 2nd batta- lion took part in an army re- \volt here earlier Monday but there was no indication that vi- olence was used against the British officers. President Julius Nyerere in a radio broadcast Tuesday said the revolt 'was a day of great disgrace to our nation." "T thank all the people who helped to stop this disgrace from getting out of hand," Nye- rere added in his first public appearance since the mutiny. He said his aim was to dis- pel anxiety. He accused rumor- mongers of alleging that his whereabouts and those of other cabinet ministers were un- known. No official news of his loca- speculation he might have been harmed or deposed in the mu- tiny. LONDON (AP)--The Tangan-| yika high commissioner's office here today said the country had returned to normal. It said "stories that the Tanganyika Army has taken over the gov- ernment are unfounded." The principal effect of the mutiny appeared to be the dis- missal of 30 British officers and 16 British non-coms on loan to Tanganyika to train and lead the army.

The chief Penghulu ard his 3,000 people, former headhunt- ers only recently introduced to the 20th century, are caught in the midst of an undeclared war along the Malaysian-In- donesian border. British troops have moved into Kalabit jungle hunting grounds about 400 miles northeast of Kuching, Sara- wak, to defend against terror- ist bands attacking across the border from Indonesia.
