Lord Birkenhead was the guess of the Australian and New Zealand Luncheon Club at the Hotel Cecil, London, on July 19th. Sir Joseph Conk (High commissioner for Australia) presided.
The Lord Chancellor, in the course of his speech, said they might leave to the censure of the world those nations upon which would always be placed the guilt of the crime which had very nearly destowed civilization; but having done so, and having won, as they had won, a victory which must pronounced the greatest victory which bad ever been won by British aims, their next daty was to see that they did not hand down to their
heir posterity a chaplet of withered

Amendments dealing with the proposal in the Bill requiring moneys expended by: trade unions on political objects to be raised by a separate levy were discussed.
The Chairman repeatedly called Labour members to order for irrelevancies and repetition of argument, and asserted that their object appeared to be to waste time. The acceptance of a motion for the closure by Major Colfox was followed by uproarėj Mr. Swan: Mr. Chairman, you pro- mised us a fair discussion, and now you gag us.
