as the lrst to be opened in state by
George v. and Queen Mary, but as
the one to decide the status of the
house of lords and probably thereby
make the greatest change OF a cen-
fury In the British constitution.
Thus King Georges regime faces q
crisis Of most vital Importance.
Many important measures are on

The governments immediate policy
for dealing with the lords is M
bodied In what Is termed the parlias
ment bill, more commonly known as
the "veto BILL" which the prime
minister introduced at the last ses-
sion. 1t practically wipes out the
power OF the upper chamber to Kill
legislation from the commons by
providing that any bill shall become
law which the commons has sent to

SEE FALL OF
TARIFF WALL
Attack Canadian Reciprocity
Treaty in Parliament.

London, Feb. RECIPROCITY assum-
ed a commanding position in the de-
alterations of the English parliament
when soon after the speech from the
throne had been read Lord Lansdowne
In the lords and A. J. Balfour in the
house Of commons vigorously attacked
the proposed Canadian-American agree
ment. In reply Premier Asquith de-
clared the leveiing Of the tariff wall
between the United States and Canada
was inevftab bic.
The launching of the subject on the
very day that parliament assembled
suggests that the matter may have a
conspicuous place In the deliberations
Of the present session.
After remarkng on the absence OF
any reference to the payment OF mem
bers OF the house of commons In
the kings speech, Lord Lansdowne
touched upon the parliament or lords
veto bill. He asked II the constitution
was to be destroyed because the lords
opposite him were unable to secure
the passage of a few measures on
which they had set their affections.
The lords, said Lord Lansdowne,
had made proposals Of their " re-
garding changes In the constitution
and the regulation Of the relations OF
the two houses. Were these proposals.
he asked, to be thrust aside as though
they were not worth the paper on
which they had been written?
Mr.. Ba1four, the opposition leader.
speaking in reply to the kings speech,
expressed regret that the king made
no reference to the important depar-
ture which had recently been taken by
Canada and which, II carried out,
would have the most disastrous ons
auences upon the future of the en-
pjre. For years, said Mr.. Balfour,
Canada had offered Great Britain
preferences, but the government has
deliberately indicated that nothing in
return in the way of preference could
be given. Is Canada, therefore, to be
blamed, he asked, for looking else
where? He regarded the agreement
between the United States and Can
ada, ii 1t is carried ont, as a great inn
perial disaster.
Premier Asquith, In replying to MI.
Balfour, said he wished the latter had
not referred to the Canadian reciproc-
ity agreement. The provisional ar
rangement between Canada and the
United States, he said, was between
themselves and was carried out on
their own responsibility. For the pres
emit, the premier thought, 1t would be
wise to withhold the consideration Of
the matter. He would say. however.
that 1t was as certain as the rising OF
the sun that sooner or later the Unit
ed States would have been bound to
level the tariff wall separating them
from Canada.
