The House of Commons had begun on the report stag« of the Naval Prize Bill, when the Opposition fruitlessly moved an amendment tq secure a smaller tribunal with a view to eliminating some of the minor countries.

Mr Simon accepted the proposal to omit subsection of clause twentythree, lest it exclude the oversea dominions' jurists.
