/ By CLIFFORD L. DAY
United Press Staff Correspondent


LONDON, Feb. Is. (UP)-
Charges on the floor of COM
mons last night of a financial
scandal rivalling L'Affaire Sta
visky in France added to the
mounting difficulties threatening
to overthrow the national gov
eminent of Prime Minister j.
Ramsay Macdonald.
The house, however, gave the
government a sweeping vote of
confidence on it's unemployment
policy, rejecting a laborite GEN.
sure motion 374 to 68.
Macdonald was greeted with
ieers from labor benches on his
unemployment policy and finish,
ed his speech defending his coal
ition ministry amid disorderly
scenes. - J. ~.
Mai. Harry Nathan, of Beth!
nal Green, arose during the din
and said ominously:
"There are ugly rumors and
grave suspicious in the city
(London's Will Street.) Don't
tell the house that it is merely
fears of a general election which
has affected foreign exchanges.
Foreigners are selling Brit
ish securities because the wire
less from Paris on Tuesday
(radio) broadcast that these
commodity speculations involve
Britain in a scandal equalling
the Stavisky affair in France"
The house was silent after
Nathan's remarks. His reference
to commodity speculations was
to crash of the pepper, peanut
and shellac markets.
IT was a bad day for the
Prime Minister. Laborites bit
terly attacked the government
on unemployment relief. Mac
Donald charged the opposition
with fostering a crisis.
