The Labor leader threw the cry of “fallure“ across the House and demanded "different people at the helm" of the Government in "this life and death struggle in which we can not afford to have our de- fences in hands of failures."

Mr. Attee charged that the Government hadconcentmted on the Iran ore port of Narvik at the expense of operations in central and southern Norway.

I-Ie accused Mr. Chamberlain and Mr. Churchill of over-com- cency in earlier r. hes. and

asked wthat the British Intelligence Service has been doing whie the Germans were practising embarks- tions for their invasion of the ncrthland.
