WINNIPEG, Man., Feb. 24-In the Mani
toba Legislature, to-day, Premier Greenway
gave notice that tomorrow he would move
the House into a committee to enter formal
protest against the threatened coercion of
the Ottawa government in respect to Roman
Catholic parochial schools. The Premier de-
clared that the remedial bill at Ottawa was
being forced through without an inquiry into
the facts, and he further declared that
the Manitoba government was willing TO
remedy anything that could be shown to
bear harshly on Roman Catholics. 1t is be-.
lieved that the Premier's motion paves the
way for an announcement Oh the result of
Sir Donald Smiths mission to Winnipeg and
everybody is on the tiptoe of expectancy.
The Premier's declaration Is taken to mean
that IL the Dominion authorities drop their
