LONDON, March 12, The arrest of the Irish rebels in Britain including one Englishmaa and one Scotsman and their deportation to Ireland without trial was debated in the Commons when Mr. Jack Jones moved the adjournment of the House. The Communist, Mr. Newbolt, seconded his protest at the irregularity of the action and supported Mr. Ramsay Macdonald.

The Home secretary, Bridgeman, defending the action, read captured letters from Ireland showing steps in obtain arms in England and efforts to get spies into the Foreign Office and the Irish High Commissioner's office in London. He said that the advisory committee to which the deportees could make representations would he presided over by Lord Chief Justice Trovethin.

RUBBER RESTRICTION.

MR. CHURCHILL'S STATEMENT.

LONDON, March 12.

Mr. Churchill in a statement in regard to the rubber restriction scheme points out that before the scheme was enforced the whole industry was falling into ruin. He does not believe that the scheme will injure the United States rubber manufacturers. On the contrary some of their best authorities expressed the opinion that stabilisation It is too early at two shillings a pound would be perfectly satisfactory. to forecast the ultimate results of the scheme but if it succeeds in sustaining the vital industries of the Malay States and Ceylon it tends to improve the Anglo-American exchange and should cause general satisfaction.

MF. Churchill pays very high tributes to the loyalty of the Malay States and expresses the greatest confidence in the judgment of Sir James Stevenson who, during the past six years, had advised him on, commercial matters in an honorary capacity. He had specially studied the rubber industry at the Colonial Office for over a year and had procured the unanimous agreement of growers to a scheme which the Cabinet unanimously approved in October. "It is surely certain that the new government will not plunge a valuable industry of important Crown-Colonies-into the uncertainty arising from infirmity of purposes and change of plans" Mr. Churchill stated.
