The government's action cut ting the value of the pound sterling from $4.03 to $2.80 as a means of bettering Britain's economic position was approv ed 342 to five, with members of the Conservative opposition abstaining. A motion of no confidence proposed by Winston Churchill, stocky leader of the Conserva tives, was defeated a few min utes earlier by a vote of 350 to 212. The 212 votes in opposition equals the highest vote ever cast against the Labor govern ment since it took office in 1945. The government bill for nationalization of the steel in dustry encountered the opposi tion of 212 members Nov. 17, 1948, but passed. If the government had fail ed to win on the motion of confidence, it would have been forced to resign. This would have necessitated a new parlia mentary election at once. Now " the government is again em powered to decide when the election will be held. Its term of office normally expires next July. The votes wound up three days of debate. The largely conservative House of Lords, which exercises little influence, voted 93 to 24 against the gov ernment's economic policy last night. The Conservatives of Com mons, in declining to vote on the government motion, ex plained they felt they had made their opposition clear in the support of their own no-con fidence motion. The five votes against the government motion were from either Communists or inde pendent Laborites ousted from the Labor Party for traveling too close to the Communist line. The Labor Party had out a three-line whip, requiring obedience in voting on pain of discipline, to Labor MP's. Laborites hold 393 of the 640 seats in Commons.
