THE PEOPLES’ BILL
MAULED BY THE LORDS’ AN UNACCEPTABLE CLAUSE INSERTED. Received Jan. 24, 1 p.m. Loudon. Jaii. 23. The Daily Chronicle’s Parliamentary correspondent says the vacancy in the War |Cabinet will not be filled immediately. It is extremely [improbable that the House of Commons will agree to vital changes made by the House of Lords iu“the Peoples’ Bill. The Commons thrice defeated proportional representation, and if Lord Seibouruo’s proposal is included in the Bill it will be impossible to pass it into law this session. The Government will probably invite the House of Commons to disagree with the amendments.
