NEW REFORM BILL

ABOLITION OF PARTY MR CL B. SHAW’S SUGGESTIONS LEFT WING CIRCULAR, (United Pi«w * iwooiatiou —bv Electric Telegraph Copyright.. 1 LONDON, Aug. 3. Mr George Bernard Shaw, addressing tlie Independent Laibour Pflirty summer school, .said the Government should produce a new reform bill establishing a new' constitution, abolishing the party system and giving home rule to England, Scotland and Wales. The next election should be fought on this policy, said! Mr Shaw. Only thus could the people be made to understand! the reasons for Labour s failures. Labour had been expected to r-oduoe results' with u constitutional machine expressly designed to prevent results. The dole policy was ruinous and the unemployed should he organised into a national corps.

The Independe-t Labour Party members of the House of -Commons have been circularised demanding their acceptance of the . Birmingham. conference’s decisions in favour of “Socialism and internationalism in our time.” The “Daily Herald” understands that many have refused to sign and are organising resistance to what they regard as an .attempt to attack them by, Mr Maxton’s left-wingers.
