Dramatic Bid By Affray's Snort Bevan To Change Labour's Policy
(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT)
London, July 2.
It was not to be expected from a politician of Mr Aneurin Bevan's temperament that he would continue meekly to support Mr Attlee's adminis- tration in the House of Commons without giving clear evidence that he has other aims in view.
