THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

MACDONALD IS EASY VICTOR IN COMMONS TEST Conservative Motion of Censure Defeated by Surprising Margin. By United Press LONDON, April 17.—The labor government has turned the most powerful attack yet made by the conservative opposition into a demonstration of strength on the part of Prime Minister J. Ramsay MacDonald’s cabinet. Defeating a conservative motion of censure on unemployment by the surprisingly large margin of fiftyfour votes, the MacDonald cabinet escaped what was suposed to have been a grave threat of disaster. It appeared today to be more

strongly intrenched than at any time in its term of office. The vote was 305 to 251. Stanley Baldwin, leader of the conservatives, had made the attack at what apepared to be the most favorable moment for defeat of the government. He had worded the motion of misconfidence on the government’s unemployment policy in such a manner that it could be supported by the Liberal party of David Lloyd George, and even by the independent laborites headed by James Maxton.

It was pointed out that the political and financial situation in Europe is so delicate due to the position of Spain that any further strain such as the upset of the British government would, at least, be inexpedient. Operation of a haif-volt motor on energy supplied by rays of daylight alone is the claim made recently by Dr. Bruno Lange, Berlin scientist.
