AMENDED ALIENS BILL
BEFORE BRITISH HOUSE
Policy Of Government Toward Those
Who Seek Refuge in
England.

LONDON, April 1s.-Mr. Churchill in
troduced in the house Of commons today
an amended aliens bill. which, II enact
ed, will markedly change the attitude of
the government toward those who have
sought British shores as political or
criminal refugees. The home secretary
disclaimed any desire to interfere with
the right of asylum for prosecuted ones,
but under the proposed law, aliens here
after arriving in Great Britain will be
required to furnish sureties for their
good behavior during a period of five
years.
Requisite for Exemption.
If at the end Of that time they can
establish that they have been law-abid-
ing during the probationary period they
will be exempted from further bonds.
Should an expelled alien return he will be
imprisoned for two years. Pistol car
rying, except by permission OF police. Is
prohibited.
The bill. which passed its first reading
this afternoon, is a result OF the recent
outbreak of crime among the aiieEs in
the east end that eliminated in the siege
of the Sydney street home of two out
laws by the police and a force Of the
military.
