SIR STAFFORD CRIPPS.
LABOUR PARTY EXPULSION,
CHARGES OF DISLOYALTY,
Received January 26, 10.25 a.m. LONDON, Jan. 25,
The national executive of the Labour Party, with one dissentient, expelled Sir Stafford Cripps from the y-irty after a discussion of charges of disloyalty by issuing to local Labour Parties a memorandum on the Popular Front after its reaction by the executive, of which Sir Stafford Cripps was a member.
The memorandum contemplated some kind of understanding with other political opponents of the National Government intended to improve the prospects of Opposition candidates at the next general election. Sir Stafford Cripps attended the meeting and vigorously denied a desire to split the party.
