UNUSUAL SITUATION
BUDGET INTRODUCTION AND REPLY
MR DALTON’S RESIGNATION Rec. 8 p.m. LONDON, Nov. 17. It probably never happened before that one Chancellor of the Exchequer introduced a Budget and another Chancellor has replied to the general debate on the Budget resolutions as Sir Stafford Cripps will do on the night of November 17, says The Times parliamentary correspondent. The principal Opposition speaker will be Sir John Anderson. ,
The correspondent added that there,* is little doubt that a demand for an inquiry into Mr Hugh Dalton’s resignation will be pressed when Mr Churchill raises the matter. The Government, in that event, will almost certainly agree to a select committee. A serious view has always been taken of any premature disclosure of Budget secrets, and the peculiar circumstances of the Dalton case seem to make a formal inquiry inevitable.
