ALLEGED DISRUPTIVE TACTICS
Mr J. T. Lang Expelled From Labour Party (Rec. 7 p.m.) SYDNEY, March 7. Mr J. T. Lang, former State Premier, has been expelled from the Australian Labour Party by the New South Wales State Executive. The voting was 23 votes to eight. The general charge made against him was alleged disruptive tactics in the Labour movement.
Mr Lang’s expulsion means that he will not receive endorsement as a Labour candidate for the next Federal elections, in which he had announced his intention of contesting a seat. His supporters claim that Mr Lang may resign control of the State Labour movement at the annual conference in June.
Mr Lang, who has been a “stormy petrel” in Australian politics, was Premier of New South Wales in 1925-27 and again in 1930-32.
