'RUTHLESS MINORITY' FEAR

Peers Up In Arms Over Curb On

Tories Move Rejection Of Reform Legislation

London, June 8.

ONLY ONE YEAR FOR TRADE ACT

Washington, June

Fear that a "ruthless doctrinaire minority" might gain power in Britain was expressed by Lord Salisbury, Opposition leader in the House of Lords, as a reason why he moved today the rejection of the Government's Bill to curb the Lords's powers. A vote will be taken tomorrow at the end of amittee voted by eight to five two-day debate.

Lord Salisbury maintained that the Bill, reducing the period in which the House of Lords could delay a House of Commons Bill from two years to one, would go for to establish a single Cham- ber Government and deprive the country of a vital constitutional safeguard of its llberties. Lord. Salisbury said that there was a section in the Labour Party which regarded the electorate ar a ladder on which to climb to pawer,

Not Party Matter

"11 is not a party matter." he ided. "The rights und liberties pl the British people are at stake"

The Opposition, he said, could not agree that a majority in the House of Commons should have a blank cheque to legislate irres- pectively of what the British people might think.

Lord Jowill, Lord Chancellor, said earlier in the debate that the Opposition was apprehensive thai there might arise in Britain government of the extreme Right or the extreme Left.
