Lords Balk Death Penalty Abolition Plan in Vote
The House of Lords defeated a proposal to end capital punishment for a five year trial by 181 to 28. The measure had passed the Commons and faces possible reversal by the Commons, with Home Secretary Chuter Ede suspending hangings after the Lords vote. Four murder cases threatened by the edict are cited as affected. The Labor cabinet weighs backing the Commons or restraining the Lords.
