MARCONI COMMITTEE
COMPLETES ITS WORK
Preliminary Report To Be Pub
lished This Week Will Not
Condemn Ministers.
m CabIe 10 M TrIhun


London June l2.-The interim report
of the Parliamentary committee which
has been investigating the Marconi
scandals will be in the hands Of the
printer to-day and circulated among
the members Of the House Of Commons
tomorrow or not later than Saturday.
In addition TO the report Of the chair
man, representing the views Of the ma
jority of the committee. there will he
included a draft report signed by the
Unionist members OF the committee.
Andrew Bonar- Law, leader Of the
Opposition, will ask the Prime Minister
on Monday TO allot day for the dis
cussion OF the report in the House.
This request will meet with instant ac-
ceptance. The interest II the debate
will centre upon the attitude OF the
Prime Minister. and any detection from
the line Of uncompromising support Of
his colleagues Immediately concerned
may have critical consequences.
II may be added that Guglielmo Mar
conf believes the interim report will be
less condemnatory in tone than the
original draft prepared by Sir Albert
Spicer. Certain amendments To It
have been made by the Liberal mem
bers of the committee, and the report,
if is believed, will neither condemn nor
definitely acqut the ministers regard
ing their dealings in Marconi stocks
II is understood. too, that the report
will express no opinion regarding the
propriety OF these transactions, but
that it definitely acquits the ministers
concerned Of corruption.
The Marconi committee received
cable dispatch yesterday from LORD
Murray OF Elibank, who Is now at
Quito, stating that as chief whip OF the
Liberal party he had bought three
thousand American Marconi shares,
which he still holds. The fact OF the
purchase was revealed during the evil
dence given on Tuesday at the sittings
OF the Parliamentary committee.
Lord Murray further says that he did
not inform his successor, p. ii. Hing
worth, Of the transaction, because he
did not wish to involve him in the mud
die He further confirms the evidence
Of Attorney General Isaacs and Chan
cellor Lloyd George as to his joint in
terest with them in Marconi shares, but
declares that outside the foregoing he
never had any interest in American
Marconis.
Despite business obligations at Quito
Lord Murray announces his willingness
TO return TO London at once if further
evidence is required OF him.
