Labor Govt. Is
Again Victorious
In British Commons

London, May 13.-(By A. P)-
The Labor government again came
out victorious in the house of COM
mons tonight, when the Conservative
motion, moved by former Premier
Stanley Baldwin, for retention or
the McKenna duties, which Prem
Ter Macdonald had accepted as
motion of censure, was rejected by
a vote of 81 to 252.
The debate on the motion was al
most exclusively devoted to the
automobile industry and the effect
the removal of the duties would have
on unemployment in that field. On
the whole, the proceedings were de-
void of excitement and great
stretches fbenches were empty for
several hours.
In the end, the vote was taken
on party lines. the Conservatives
solidly supporting the duties. and the
Liberals linking forces with Labor
to abolish them. There were 20
votes taken against the government
measure just five less than the num-
Der of Conservatives in the house.

SENATE SUSTAINS
PRESIDENTS VETO
BURSOM PENSION BILL

| Washington. May 13,-President
Coolidge today won the first clash
in his campaign to keep government
expenses within budget estimates.

require the outlay of $5S,0O0,000
| next year and of S415, 100000 for the
first 10 years.
Senator Bursum, Republican, New
Mexico, author of the measure, re-
introduced it almost at once, but
with important notifications. Among
these were a reduction of S12 a
month from the base pension which
was provided in the original bill,
bringing the rate to $50 for veterans
of all wars, except the World war.
and an average reduction of So a
month in the rate proposed for wild
ows of veterans.
The bill was referred to the pen
sions committee but it was the
opinion in the senate that insufficient
time remained in the present ses-
sion for it to come to vote.
In voting today 53 to % on the
motion to override the presidential
| veto, the senate broke away from
all recognizable party divisions, 81
Republicans and the two Farmer
Labor members joining with 10
Democrats to re-enact the bill while
16 Democrats and IL Republicans
voted to sustain the veto.
The vote follows:
