PEERS WANTED CLOSED SHOP
British Houss of Lords Once Passed Measure Restricting Membership
 killed by Commons.

There would have been no peer ages in the honors list if the house of lords had its way two centuries ago. Alarmed by the enormous in- crease in their numbers after the accession of George l, the lords in 1717 framed bill proposing that future peerages should be limited to two lives, and that such new crea- tions were to be made only in case of extinction. The peers passed the bill by 8 large majority, and the com mons might have done likewise but for an eloquent and biting speech by Walpole. If the measure became law, he pointed out, there would be ''no arriving at honor but through the winding-sheet of al old decrepit lord or the grave of an extinct fam ily."
 Had the bill originated, Walpole continued, with some noble peer of distinguished ancestry, it would not have surprised him, but it was matter of astonishment that it should have been promoted principally by Lord Stanhope, "a gentleman who was not long ago seated among us, and who, having got into the house of peers, is now desirous of shutting the door behind him."

three slow puffs, and then, removing 1t

ironically:
