IRON, STEEL BILL
London, July 25.
The House of Commons today faced an all-night sitting as the Government called up all Par- liamentary support to rescue its Bill to nation- alise the steel industry.
The Bill had been thrown back from the Conser- vative-dominated House of Lords-with-about- 60 amendments, most important of which was to delay its operation until October, 1950. This would give the Conser-
next vntives-if they win the
which must general elretion, come before July, 1850-a chance
to repeat the whole Bill.
"Mr. George Strauss,

The House of Commons, where husu over- the Clovernment riding majority, are expected to rest this and return the Bill to the House of Lords.
If the Peers deline to give way again and they have Enid bat they will not-the Clovern- inent is expected 10 make the Bill law, despite the Peers' ol jections, through the Parlismen iary Bill troduced last year.
