BALDWIN SNAPS BACK

AT LANSBURY

London, June 17. Something of Great Britain's policy and plans in connection with the protection of Europe against war and the defence of her own shores in case of aggression, was revealed when the House of Commons resumed to-day.

The particularly responsible and delicate business of achieving an aerial pact amongst the European powers' was in the hands of Mr. Anthony Eden, Mr. Stanley Baldwin, the Prime Minister stated when answering the somewhat critical remarks of Mr. George Lansbury, Labour leader. He had twitted the Prime Minister upon the duties of the Ministers with- out portfolio, of whom Mr. Eden is one, and Mr. Baldwin was curt in his reply.

The House was told something of the plans to expand the Royal Air Force and the steps which were being taken to guard against profiteering in the air- craft industry.

The House of Commons gordially: welcomed the new Ministers at its! reassembling after the Whitsunj recess. The former Premier, Mr. Ramsay Mac Donald, appeared i relaxed in the House for the first
