Bruxner, and the Secretary for Public Works. Mr. E. S. Spooner. A stir -was caused in the Assembly yesterday when, with dramatic suddenness. Mr. J. T. Lang, the Leader of the official Labour Opposition, launched a no-confidence motion. Reviving Mr. Spooner’s attack on the Premier for alleged Budget faking, which the Premier duly repudiated, Mr. Lang exclaimed that both could not be right and there -was no place in. public life for a man found to be a wrong Premier.
The Premier promptly obtained an adjournment until to-day, -when a full dress debate is promised.
