IRELAND TO HAVE
TWO LEGISLATURES

London.--premier Lloyd George out
lined the governments proposals for
Ireland In long statement in the
house of commons
The governments new bill provides
briefly for the creation of two legls-
latures In Ireland with full constltu-
ent powers to create single Irish
legislature to discharge all powers not
specifically reserved TO this imperial
parliament. A clause will protect the
rights Of minorities. The question of
uniting these two Irish legislatures
into one body rests with the Irish
people, the consent OF the imperial
parliament not being required.
The proposed legislatures are prom
ised very extensive powers and ample
concessions, while the financial pro-
posals are regarded as generous.
Moreover, there are inducements to
still further concessions and to uni
ted parliament for the whole country.
