POLITICAL ROW / ON IN ENGLAND Commons Is Split on Imperial
 Preference

London, June IS P)-The division in the house of commons last eve ming oh imperial preference, in which twenty laborites supported the government and their spokes- man said another dozen who were absent would have done likewise If present, has made quite a lively stir in political quarters. IL is warmly hailed by the protectionist newspa- pers as sign that a new line of thought is prevailing among labor men on the tariff question.
 The clause voted on dealt with imperial preference for tobacco, wines and dried and preserved fruit. A labor amendment proposing to postpone operation of the clause was voted down. PIT to 93. and later the entire preference clause of the finance bill was adopted without fur ther division.
 It Is recalled that a year ago dur ing the labor administration, when the present premier submitted reso- iutions giving effect to the decisions of the imperial conference in favor preference duties, only five laborites supported him. The contrast be- tween that occasion and yesterdays vote Is much emphasized, while the fast that five liberals also went to the government lobby yesterday fur ther pleases those supporting the tariffs.
 The laborite newspapers admit that a steadily growing minority in the labor party favors a modified imperial preference, but points out that those opposing the scheme are much more numerous, and include former Premier Mac Donald, Philip snowden and other prominent labor. ites. = How far the protectionists' claim, that yesterdays division indicated the laborites are steadily moving away from free trade, is iustifable only lime can show.
 The Times rather regards the in. cident as a sign that the whole question of fostering trade within the empire is passing from tht realm of ordinary party. conflict.
