"One of the most important st<?ps the Labour Party has taken since the war," says the "News Chronicle," commenting on a decision of the Labour Party's national executive yesterday to go to the country at the next election with a short reconstruction programme to be carried out in the lifetime of,one Parliament, namely, five years.
A Drafting Committee has already been appointed to prepare a new programme, which is to be submitted to the party and the public at an early date. • ■
"The decision i< bound to influence profoundly future developments of the party's policy,", adds the "News Chronicle." ''It means that the appeal to the electors is henceforth to be made on a series of practical proposals instead of the policy of general Socialism and nationalisation which hitherto has been the party platform."
