MORTGAGORS' RELIEF
BILL MAY BE DROPPED
With less than two days to go beforo the end of the session and much legislation remaining to lie passed, it is possible that the Mortgagors'and Tenants' Belief Bill, which was introduced in the House of Representatives on Friday and referred to the Statutes Revision Committee, will not bo passed this session. The Bill contains considerable additions to the present legislation and seeks to establish new principles relating to stock mortgages.
Protests have been sent to tho Government and in view-of the need-for giving these consideration it is likely that the present Bill will bo held over until next session and that the existing legislation, which expires on December 31, will be extended by the passage of a short .Bill of one clause.
The whole question was considered at a caucus of the Coalition Party last night, and the course decided upon is understood to be the result of tho representations then made by the rank and file.
