londox, October 10. The Tl\\'.>; ttates that ilr Chamberlain and the Government ara willing to establish absolute p)pn!ar control of secular education in all State-aided
schools, preserving denominational con' trol of religions education in denominations! sohools.
It is the consensus of opinion that Mr Chsmbsrlaia'i emphatic declaration that if the Education Bill were defeated the Government would reiign, contribated to a firm rallying of the Birmingham aonferenee to adopt a tolerant and moderate policy. JUecired October 12, MS p.nu ITr Brodricfc, addressing the Northern Union of Contervative Associations, at Whitehaven, said the Government would unfalteringly adhere to the Edacition Bill, which was not a par-
tisau measure, and which would be carried because it was the b?st scheme yet advanced for furthering education. There wcu’d be no withdrawal. “The country,” he continued, “ must choose between the bi'l and the Government. No bill no Unionist Government. The details of the bill are mainly settled I/, regarding the majority clause, accoamoda'.ion is necssrary in some details concerning secular education, accommodition may doubtless be possible, bat a far greater divergence of opinion ca that majority clause exists between cor opponents than between ourselves,”
