The fate of the Nenni telegram signatories is still undecided,

but it will be very surprising if there are not two or three expulsions at any rate from the Labour Party. First favourites appear to be Mr. Platts-Mills, Mr. Zilliacus and Mr. Warbey, but there are several other runners-up. Though, as Mr. Eden insisted, the attachment to a telegram of this kind of signatures of Members who never consented to sign is a House of Commons matter, no action is likely to be taken if the Labour Party itself takes sufficiently drastic disciplinary measures on its own account. And there was an in- flection in Mr. Morrison's voice on Tuesday which seemed to put that prospect beyond much doubt. He will certainly have the solid mass of his party behind him in anything he may recommend.
