MERCHANDISE MARKS.
BRITISH BILL PASSED.
THIRD READING IN COMMONS.
Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. (Reed. 8.35 p.m.) LONDON, Nov. 24. In the House of Commons to-day the Merchandise Marks Bill was read a third time by 233 votes to 103, after a motion for its rejection had been lost.
The mover of the hostile motion, Mr. S. Webb, Labour member for Durham, argued that the bill was a vicious one and that its real object was to discourage imports.
Mr. Lloyd George urged that the bill was a measure to advertise foreign goods at the expense of the British taxpayer.
