London, Jan. 28. One of the most violent disturbances ever to occur in the public gallery of the House of Commons broke out to-night during the debate on the supplementary estimate for £5,000,000 to be voted towards the newly-possessions abroad, and, for the created Unemployment Assistance Board, in order to stamlardise throughout the country the rates of assistance for able-bodied unemployed who have ex- hausted their unemployment benefits.
The Government's proposals were warmly criticised on the ground that they were inadequate by the Labourite, Mr. George Buchanan of Glasgow, who started the House by a virulent attack on the Premier, Mr. Ramsay MacDonald, who was not present.
Mr. MacDonald was described
as a mountebank, a awine, a low and dirty cur, who ought to be of horse-whipped and slung out public life.

THRILLING FINISH
Port of Spain, Jan. 28. Another sensational collapse by the English batsmen, saw the West Indies win the Second Test Match to-day by 217 runs after thrilling finish. The last wicket fell when there was only half a minute left for play.

Twice the keen West Indies' attack upset the leading batsmen, whereas the winners themselves scored com- fortably. This result makes the countries level, England having won the Arst Test at Barbados.
When the West Indies resumed their second Innings this morning they were 194 runs ahead with seven wickets in hand. On a good wicket, the batsmen con- Linued to pile on the runs steadily. George Hoadley, not out 69 over- night, plodded along to score 03 in 220 minutes, before standing Hein front of a straight one from Smith. Headley, although play- ing correct cricket, was very sub- dund. His best hits were night boundaries.

Moscow, Jan, 28.
M. Viacheslav Molotov, Chairman of the Council of People's Commissars, one of the most powerful men in Russia, opening the Seventh All-Union Congress of Soviets to-day, at which 2,000 delegates were present, challenged the foreign critics of the recent political executions which followed the murder of the official, Kirov.
He declared the Government would continue to mete out similar punishment to all its enemies of the same order, in spite of the protests from abroad.
M. Molotov said that Russia's relations with China were good. He denied foreign reports that the Soviet Union was attempting to Sovietise Sinkiang,
