LONDON, October 3

The Baptist Union, bitting at Bradford, resolved unanimously that the Government ought to deal with the education question immediately, or at least. concurrently with the Licensing Bill.

Dr Clifford warned the Government that they must act courageously, or they will find that they are playing with edged tools. If the Lords rejected the Education Bill Baptists would do their utmost to end the hereditary legislative principle. The Union deplored the large increase of unemployment, and urged the Government and municipalities to provide employment on an adequate scale.
