MEASURE SAFE;
FORM IS ONLY
LITTLE CHANGED
Commons Amendments
Affecting Setting Up
of Parliaments Pass.
Proposal to Permit Levy
ing of Surtaxes Was
Defeated by Lords.

London, Dec. 20.-(By The
Associated Press The Irish
home rule bill now is safe and
will be placed on the statute
book this week in form only
slightly amended from the shape
in which it first left the house
of commons.
The house of lords Monday, after a
brief debate, agreed to all the amend
ments made to the bill by the commons
Parliament Rider
The only amendment discussed BY the
lords was that adopted by the lower
house providing if either area in Ire
land refused to set up parliament the
executive could not make the offer d
second time unless within three years
after June l both houses of the British b
parliament adopted resolution asking
for it. Earl Middleton objected to this
time limit of three and one half years
and challenged a division on the ques-
tion. He was defeated, 81 to H. where
upon this and the other commons
amendments were agreed to without fur
ther discussion.
Owing to a slight modification made
in the house of lords at the suggestion
of Lord Birkenhead, the lord chancellor.
the bill again will have to be submitted
to the house Of commons as formality
and it probably will be Tuesday before the
royal sanction is given.
North and South Senates
One of the principal changes made by
the lords is that senates be created for
both the northern and southern parila-
ments. AS proposed by the government
the question of the method of establish
ing the senates was to be left to the
Irish parliaments.
Another modification secured by the
lords is that instead Of the council of
Ireland being nominated by the two
parliaments, each senate will appoint
seven of its members and each paria-
ment thirteen. making forty, while in
stead of the president Of the council
being the lord chancellor Of Ireland, as
proposed by the government, he will be
nominated by the lord lieutenant on the
advice Of the crown.
Tax Levying Defeated
The lords also defeated the proposal
that the Irish parliaments should have
the power to levy a surtax.
1t is generally supposed that the gov
ernment regards the bill as the basis for
future negotiations and with this idea
has reserved the questions Of customs
and excise from the bill.
Great Falls daily tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1895-1921, 1920-12-21

proposed by Mr.. Harding for an inter
national court. The league question also
was discussed by the president elect with
Samuel McCune Lindsay. professor of
social legislation at Columbia, who said
he was confident the foreign policies of
the new administration were being laid
on q sound foundation.
The question Of Mr.. Harding's early
resignation from the senate was the sub
ject of conference between him and
Senator Elect Frank g. Willis, whom
Governor Cox has agreed to appoint to
the vacancy. 1t was said afterward no
decision was reached and the friends of
the president elect took his delay as
meaning he probably would not retire
until the new Republican governor takes
office in January.
There was no evidence that anything
definite regarding cabinet appointments
developed between the president elect ana
Mr.. Dawes or Mr. Wallace.
Some of Mr.. Hardings cvlosest friends
believe he still has an open mind ahoW
most cabinet selections and that none
has been determined finally.
