The - British section of the League Against Imperialism expelled from membership' its chairman, Mr. James Maxton. M.P., who. also is chairman of the Independent Labor Party, on the ground of his neglect to light the Labor Government’.s policy in Egypt, arid" also for his support of Government measures to crush the Arab revolt in Palestine. Mr. Maxton replied that he does not intend to bo bullied. Dissent-ion in tlie British Communist Party also is revealed by the demand of a number of branches for the removal of Messrs. Harry Follitt, Arthur Horner, and J. R. Campbell, formerly of the political bureau, on the ground of their being right-wingers. The demand, apparently, was instigated in Moscow, which is dissatisfied with Communists’ achievements in Britain, and insists on a, more intense war against the Socialist Government.
