over the government's amend ments to the Unemployment In- surance Act, Mr. Starr accused the Liberals of not tabling, when they formed the government, exe . actly the type of report that op- position spokesmen claimed the

minister suppressed last year. The amendments passed setond reading—approval in principle— by a vote of 133 to 34 with the Liberals and six CCF MPs voting against them. Harold Winch (CCF —Vancouver East) voted with the Progressive Conservatives.
