British Labor fights to retain power in parliament
London May 23 Prime Minister J Ramsay MacDonalds government survived the first of three serious life threats by a narrow margin. A motion by Sir Oswald Mosley at a Labor meeting was defeated 210 to 29. Mosley resigned as chancellor of the duchy of Lancaster after clashing over unemployment relief. Two further obstacles loom, a May 28 Conservative move to cut Lord Privy Seal J H Thomas's salary and the defection of David Lloyd George Liberals who had supported Labour. Lloyd George objects to MacDonalds stance on electoral reform.
