Housing Problem.

If Mr. Wheatley's is a Bill for getting houses and not merely for getting votes, it is very

clear that the Committee of the whole House is the proper area for its consideration. It saddles the country. with huge commitments, which every member of Parliament is entitled to probe before accept ing responsibility for them. The Minister's speech was practically a claim that everything should be left to himself and the building trades,hose superior qualifica tions for Handling the problem be repeatedly adorsed.

As though the wreckage of home life implied in the mere fact that a child had been born as the result of an irregular connection could be alleviated by persecuting the child for the remainder of its life. As though you could promote either happiness or purity by denying to one set of parents and granting to another the satisfaction of legiti mising their offspring.

Incidentally, the traded in whose and dom Mr. Wheatley invites us to place such confidence have most awkwardly belled him by a paralysing internecine quarrel" The building operatives appeto have failed in the capacity to make good their share in national agrée ments, and the employers' lock-out is the fruit of an impatience which is intelligible, but ought to have been restrained.
