LONDON, April 23 - (Monday) - (AP) - Labor Minister Aneurin (Nye) Bevan. fiery left-winger, split with Prime Minister Attlee on the new budget and resigned today from the cabinet.

I-lis action probably means a new lzeneral election soon and a. contest with the more moderate Attlee for leadership of the harassed Labor Party.

Teeth and Spectacles

Bevan. an eloquent former Welsh coalmlner with ambitions to he prime minister. objected to budget provisions charging patients halt the cost. of false teeth and spect- acles which they formerly received free under Britain's National Health Service. But he pitched his resig- nation on a broader issue .. in- cluding proposed huge military ex- penditures.

Bevan wrote Attlee. addressing him as "My Dear Clem:"

"The budget. in my views, is wrongly conceived in that it fails to apportion fairly the burdens of expenditure as between different social classes.

"It is wrong because it is based upon a scale of military expenditure in the coming year which is phys- ically unattainable without grave extravagance in its spending."

"1 note that you have extended the area of disagreement with your colleagues a long way behind the specific matter to which, as I un- derstood. you had taken objection. I had certainly gathered that if the proposals for imposing charges on dentures and spectacles were dropped you would have been set- failed"

Fishing Industry In Broad Survey

OTTAWA. April 20--(CPI--For the first time in Canada's cen- sus-taking history. a detailed study will be launched next June of the Canadian commercial fish- erman. And that involves compli- cations.

The first is how to define a "commercial” fisherman. F o r there are those who sometimes combine sport with work- and earn a little cash by selling their catch.

After looking at the problem from various angles, the Fisheries Department decided that for the purposes of the census, in "com- mercial" flshcrman is one who on- gaged in catching or carrying fish in the period from June, 1950. to May. 1951. He must have fished

Fewer Household Appliances In U.S.

CLEVELAND, April 22 -(AP) - United States manufacturers will produce 30 per cent less major household appliances this year than in 1050, the magazine Steel reports today.
