"I think that is a. topic that ob- viously I should not attempt to dfiililil with now," replied Mr. Chur- c .

It was against this background of underlying concern for harmo- nious inter-Allied relations that Mr. Eden rose to give a. detailed, stand-pat defence of the Govern- ment's steps in Greece and at least temporarily stifled the demand of some left-wing Labor members for a vote of censure. »

The House rose long after dusk tonight in agreement that it would adjourn tomorrow until Jan. 15.
