ANOTHER GOVERNMENT REVERSE. CLAUSE OP BILL DELETED. (Prana Association—Bv Telegraph—Copyright.) SYDNEY, January 21. The Government suffered another defeat in the Legislative Council, one of the clauses in the Crown Lands Amendment Bill being deleted by’22 votes to 17. CHILD ENDOWMENT BILL. SYDNEY, January 21. At a meeting of the Parliamentary Labour Caucus Mr Lang stated that the Government was concerned over the question of the constitutional validity of the proposed child endowment scheme, and that Mr A. T. MTiernan (Attorney-General) had gone to Melbourne to consult the constitutional authorities on the position. The feeling generally amongst the Labour members is that the Bill will be dropped, as it cannot legally be applied to the children of workers within the State who are governed by Federal awards.
