The upshot of the discussion in the House of. Common, on June 1st, on mem- bers' salaries and nilowacces was that the proposal, to grant special exemption from income-tax was withdrawn, but the proposal to grant free first-class railway tickets was defeated by 187 ta 171. The debate drew by far the largest House of the session, and much fuller attendance than the Budget. The Labour party turned up in force, and even the benches below the public gallery beyond the bar had their quota of members. Personal

It is to be observed that Mr. Cham- berlais frankly admitted that he had; changed his mind and no longer held the views which he held in 1911, when he strongly opposed payment of members. He now takes the view that there are bound to be a number of poor men in every House of Commons, and if an allowance of any kind is made at all; it ought to be an adequate one. As to

this, Mr. Clynes observed that in 1011 be thought 4-100 a year quite liberal, and lived well within it; but it was inade- quate now, and he looked to its increase when the public finances permitted.. Sir Frederick Banbury objected to any sort of payment out of public funds to mem- bers. Captain Loseby thought that the Government, naght to have stuck to their original proposal, and he drew a lurid picture of the danger of political corrüp- tion creeping into a House where certain members-so be said-could not afford to: go into the dining-room and were not | getting proper "meals. However, those views found to support, and the with drawal of the proposal for 起 formal exemption of M.P. salaries from income. tax passed without a division, in con- sideration of the "advice" tendered by the Leader of the House.

EDUCATING THE ELECTORS: "The question of the payment of rail, way expenses was discussed and dealt with separately. Mr. Chamberlain spoke warmly in its favour, and quoted the case of a Scottish member who never went home during the session, and only saw his wife when she came up to London on deputations. Which, of us," he ask. ed warmly. "would tolerate such separation from his family" And then he developed rather a curious argument. For he spoke of the "educative influence"
