House of Commons this afternoon. giving
reason that the amendments were destructive
10 the fabric and main principles of the measure.
Mr.. Brrell expressed the hope that the upper
house might withdraw the amendments as a.
whole and substitute others more limited in
scope and operation. and intirnated that the gov
ernment was prepared to consider some conces-
sions, but the present amendments in their
listing state or anything like it, were quite un-
acceptable. He added that if the peers per
sisted in their original amendments the bill
would be sacrificed.
Mr. Birren then announced that the Premier,
Sir Henry Campbell -Bannerman, would to-mor-
row move a resolution asking the house TO re-
ject the amendments a whole and in the mean
time he asked the house to proceed TO discuss
them.
