Labor Government Backs DevaIuatiOn

LONDON, Britain's Labor gov ernment decided today to stake its life on a motion backing Parlia- ment to approve devaluation of the pound.
 Parliament reconveneS tomor- row in an emergency three-day debate on the crisis raised by the cheapening of the pound from $4.03 to $280 eight days ago.
 If the Labor Party's motion should fail in the House of Com mons, Prime Minister Attlee would be forced to diSband Parliament and call an immediate general election. The government has a 60 per cent majority in the House, and if unruly Laborites can be whipped into line, the government will win out. Some Labor leaders worried that some of the leftists in their ranks might abstain from voting and cut down the Labor margin.
