if Labor Party

like Party With‘ Exception Of Young Son Malcolm Condemn

Action In Form- aI Government‘.

(Canadian Press Cable)

LONDON, Aug. lid-RH. Hon. J- Ramsay MacDonald who has de- voted hls life to the building up of the British Labor Party, today was stripped of his leadership, and only his young son Malcolm, a- mong all Labor's rank and file de- fended his action in forming a na- tional Government to deal with Great Britain's ﬁnancial diﬂicult-l ies. His former colleague, Rt. Hon. ' Arthur Henderson, affectionately known as "Uncle Arthur" to Brit- ish Labor, was given Mr. MacDon- ald's mantle and will lead an a1- most solid force of 281 members ol the House of Commons against the new Government when Parliament meets m" special session September 8th. Against that force of men and women the Prime Minister will mar- shall the combined Conservative and Liberal members.

Mr. MacDonald heard oi theloss of his Labor Party ‘leadership to- day while among his “ain folk“ in his native village of Inssiemouth, where he was bcm in poverty near- ly 65 years ago. He chatted with fishermen who are his old friends. He later took an automo- bile ride with hLs daughters Ish- bel and Sheila, played a round of golf at Spey Bay and niwn retlrlns to the cottage, which was his moth- ers. he accepted his old comrades decision with brief comment. “I can assure you that the National Gov- ernment means to lose no time In dealing with the situation," he said. “I am returning to London on Sunday night for the cabinet meet- ing on Monday."

Tonight the Prime Minister ap- peared certain of success in his economy programme, which calls for s. cut in the nation's expend- itum of 0600900900 in produce 0 balanced budget. The Conservative Party conference unanimously air proved Rt. Hon- Stanley Bald- win's action in Joining Mr. Mac- Donaldu new Government. The mum-gig, also. in party conclsve. approved their leader's support 01-’ the new administration.

The removal of Mr. MacDonald from the highest office the Labor Party can bestow came as a oli- mlx to one of the most dramatic weeks in British political history. Acting upon the theory that the Prime Minister had 1079161991‘! 1115 party position by forming the new Government, the Purl‘ ‘"Y Ll- bor Party formalhv deposed him. only six votes were recorded against the action and they were by a group of left wingers headed by James Maxion, member for Bridgeton. This opposition was for the purpose of maintianing the identity of the-radical section 0f tho Labor Party. In the coining sanion the Maxtcn group is ex- pected to vote with Mr. Henderson
