LONDON, 30th April,
Mr. Winston Churchill, when closing the debate on the Budget, made incidental reference to the danger of workers learning how to qualify for unemployment insurance. Instantly there "were angry Labour cries of "withdraw," which grew in intensity when Mr. Churchill refused. Ho attempted a dozen times to resume his speech, but each time met with a volley of shouting and taunts from Socialist members. The Chairman of Committee, repeatedly appealed to Labour members, saying that Mr. Churchill had said nothing out of order. After half an hour Mr. Churchill sat down amid loud Ministerial cheer* and left the House with the rest of the Ministerialists. ■
