The laoorjtes had agreed to try to keep the house in session until it is prorogued Friday nignt in an effort to force the government to take further steps toward the alleviation of unemployment. Members of the party endeavored to have the issue discussed at every available opportunity during the session but a motion for cloture, made by Stanley Baldwin, chancellor of th? exchequer at about 6:30 o'clock this morning was carried by a substantial majority. The motion was hailed with cries of "shame," "gag" and "scandal," while epithets of a more personal character) were hurled at the occupants of thei treasurv Kfnrh. j The session which adjourned at 6:50 o'clock was tinged with humor and bitterness. "Is this a Xktrw game of patience we are learning?" asked a laborite member of the speaker in the early morning hours. "No, its quite an old game," replied the speaker with a laugh.
