LONDON, June 27.

Four Labour members were suspended in the House of Commons on the occasion of the Scottish Estimates debate. Mr. J. Matton and Mr. J Heatley described the Rt. Hon. Sir F. G, Banbury (Chairman of the Great Northern Railway) as a murderer in connection with the reduction of the provision for child welfare. They refused to withdraw the ex- pression or depart even at the request of the Sergeant-at-Arms with a show of force, but left when a motion for their suspension was carried.

Thereafter the Rev. C. Stephen (Labour) re- peated the allegation that the Hon, Mr. Banbury was a murderer. Another motion for suspension secured Mr. Stephen's departure.
