SPEAKER ORDERS POLICE TO LEAVE ASSEMBLY.
(United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) (Received January 21, 12.30 p.m.) » DELHI, January 20. The opening of the Legislative Assembly was marked by a scene. With a view to obviating further bomb outrages, similar to that of last April, the Chief Commissioner at Delhi had posted a number of police in the galleries claiming that the responsibility for the protection of members’ lives lay with him. Air Patel, Speaker of the Assembly, who is a strong Swarajist, declaring that the authority of the Chair must be vindicated, abruptly ordered all the police out and declined to allow Air Crerar, leader of the House, to make a statement.
