CRIMINAL LAW BILL. REJECTED BY ASSEMBLY. (Press Association. —Copyright.) (Received 11.35 a.m.) Delhi, September 16. Reintroducing the Criminal Law Amendment Bill, which the Assembly on Thursday rejected by 71 votes to 61, the Viceroy, Lord Willingdon, in a two hours' speech, appealed for cooperation under the Constitution, a departure from which never led anywhere. The shadow of a communal strike must be dispelled if India was to be successfully developed. The Bill was again rejected, however, by G 9 votes to 57. Members of the National Congress did not attend as a protest against the Bill's reintroductioh. It is expected that Lord Willingdon will now use his powers to certify the Bill.
