Undertake.

London, Dec. 14.-via Montreal
The reform of the house Of lords will
be one of the tasks undertaken by the
coalition ministry if it is returned to
power in the election taking place in
the United Kingdom today. A. Bonar
Law, chancellor of the exchequer, de-
clared in a speech at Glasgow Friday.
The government, the chancellor
continued, intended to give the new
upper house the strength that could
alone come from direct access with
the people.
The chancellor reiterated his previ-
Gus statement that the government
would see that the empires naval
safety was not imperilled at the
peace conference. He was not afraid
of Bolshevism in the United King
dom. 3.
MI. Law said that coalition govern
ment believed that a second chamber
with adequate strength was necessary
in any democratic country, but it was
not intended that it should be a
hereditary chamber.

only terms acceptable to officer Sui
Ivan yesterday, when he was UNI
moned to destroy the forces Of the in
vaders, who collected from all parts
of the city yesterday to attack the
snow fortress of the Belmont-Reeves
salient.
The snow fort was constructed
some days ago by the boys on Bel
mont and Reeves avenues, and light
battles have been fought for the past
few days. However when the in

were drawn up, and as sabotage is
against the order of the day, the Off
Ger decided to allow the fortress to re-
main intact. Things were quiet along
the entire salient today.
