MOVE DEFEATED
London, June 10.
A Labour opposition move to censure the British Government for its handling of the disarmament issue was defeated in the House of Commons tonight by 308 votes to 249
a Government majority of 59.
J
The vote was on a motion to reduce money granted to the Foreign Office
by a token amount of £5. on which the debate took place
This is a traditional way for
an opposition to express dia- satisfaction with Government policy.
The vale came after a debale on disarmament in which Mir Duncan Sandys, Minister of Defence, had envisaged, after
an agreement un arms culs, the setling up of a world security authority under the United Na long with an international arms Inspectorate and an internation- of police authority,
Mr Selwyn Lloyd, the Foreign Secretary, who replied to the debate, said the meeting of experts on the policing of the 11-Bomb tests, which he hoped would take place at Geneva, was " hopeful sign."
Bargain Sought
Britain would go to these meetings to try to get the best bargain she could about nuclear and conventional disarmament,
"We shall try to get bargain In which suspension of tests is linked with the cut-off (of sale material for making weapons) and in which nuclear disarma- ment bears a relationship to conventional disarmament,”
Mr Philip Noel-Baker, one of the Labour opposition's experis on disarmament matters, said he did not ask the Government to trust the Russians but to test them by proposing mutual KuBrantees from which trust might grow.
