LONDON, July 30. A meeting under the auspices of the Independent Labor Party and the Fabian Society resolved to demand the withdrawal of the Insurance Bill.

Mr Snowden said the Bill was meagre, ■pettifogging, and ineffective. He was in iParliament in order to get several millions a year, and if Mr Lloyd George was unwilling to add one penny* burden to taxation, it was evident the Socialists and social reformers must part company. Mr George Lansbury said that Mr Lloyd George professed to love the people, but at the same time he was tumbling over himself to save the pockets of the rich.
