IRISH FREE STATE BILL. CARRIED WITHOUT A DIVISIÓN.
The Irish Free State Constitution Bill was given a second reading, without a division on November 37th in the House of Commons, to which it was presented by the Prime Minister without fear but without “exaggeratej He contented that the universal hopea.

As to that he assured the House that the Law Officers of the late Government, as of the present one, were entirely of opinion that it so agree, and he added the interesting atatement that the Lord Chief Justice had
gone over the text of the Con- atitation,

Mr. Bonar Law very earnestly laid down the doctrine that it would be most unwise to define strictly the relations between Great Britain and the self-governing Dominions, that it would be fatal to try to limit their powers by restrictive statutes. Now that the Irish Free State is a self- -governing Dominion, any attempt to impose such restrictions it her case would awaken alarak and protests in ther Dominions to they were not intended to apply. It was a very wise little speech, full of good sense, was manifestly and the Prime anxious not ord too much lest he should add to the difficulties of the Pro- visional Government, of whose bona fides he apparently feels quite assured. Mr. Kamsay MacDonald was even briefer, He endorsed all that. fr. Bonar Law had said, and then palpably astonished the House by invoking upon the bill the blessing of Almighty God, an expression of "natural piety" which not only astonished but pleased.

That was his apologia, and he saw TO inconsistency in his conduct. The Ulster members, also, did not oppose the bill. though they were unable to vote for it, and their leader, Mr. Charles Craig, warmly dissented from the view expressed by Sir John Simon, that the state of Southern Ire. land had improved since the Treaty.
