Senate Seats In Australia
Canberra, Apr. 29.
The Labour Opposition, léd by Dr H. V. Evatt, will hamstring the Menzies-Fadden coalition government if it wins the May 9 election for one- half of the scats in the Senate.

Senate could force the Liberal and Country Party coalition regime to call for general elec- Llons. Refusal by Labour to endorse the government's "kup- ply" bill which allocates money for national projects and de- partments would "amount to a | no-confidence motion.
