May 2 —The Labor government last night won a House of Commons ballot on a minor is : sue by a single vote, beating back a surprise Conservative attack de : signed mainly to shake Laboritej prestige. Parliamentary observers said an adverse vote on such an issue—a j Conservative proposal for a £1,000 ($2,800) appropriation cut—prob ably would not have forced the j government to resign. The House, sitting as a commit tee of the whole, cast a tie vote; of 278-278 over the Conservative proposal to reduce the salaries of Transport Minister Alfredv Barnes and his assistants. The Laborite committee chairman, James Mil ner broke the tie with a vote in ! the government s favor. Prime Minister Attlee’s cabinet already has lost one such vote on a minor motion since the February general elections gave it a major ity of fewer than 10 votes over the combined Conservative and Lib eral opposition. The Laborites have won nine test votes, most of them on major "issues of confi idence,” since the new Parliament met March 6. High Blood Pressure Counted As Blessing in Some Ways By Howard W.

Heim burger of Indian University School of Medicine. They examined people whose minds were affected slightly by high pressure. Why minds are involved is not entirely clear, but the condition has something to do with a change in the supply of blood to your grey matter. So far as minds were concerned, there were both advantages and disadvantages. On the good side were little changes in personality These did not necessarily apply to every one. but were apparent among some of the driving, suc cessful types These people became more tol erant.

Perfectionists were no longer so intensely interested in making themselves and every one else per fect. On the bad side there was an increase in difficulty in sleeping There was less energy. Thera were mild defects in judgment and memory The doctors did not claim that high blood pressure is desirable.
