Against Liberals’ Motion

DAVE MciNTOSH

OTTAWA (CP)—The minority Progressive Conservative gov- ernment won its first crucial vote in the Commons Tuesday night when a Social Credit mo- tion of non-confidence was de- feated 233 to 30.

Only the Social Credit group supported the motion, which would have overthrown the gov- ernment if it had carried. It was worded in such a way, however. that neither the Lib- erals nor New Democrats could have backed it.

In a rare display nf interest, every MI’ was in his seat for the voting. The 115 Conserva- tives got support from 100 Lib- erals and 18 NDP members in opposing the motion.
