The American Legion proposes a bond

tion of William .lames Tliorne, Labor
member for West Hum, in fnvor of a
levisiou of the pence treat.v, which be
subjected to severe criticism. The mo
tion was rejected by 2.14 to 00.
Ro'ihing to a question as to whether
Viscount Grey would return to Y'nsh
ington as British ambassador, and if not
who would be his successor. Premier
Lloyd Gcorgo said lie was unable to
make any statement on the subject.
Repljing to a question as to what
steps the government proposed to take
for the relief of Central llttropc. Austen
Chamberlain, the chancellor of the ex
chequer, said the final arrangements
could not be made until the Congress
of the United Htutcs had granted the
necessary powers. The relief adminis
tration nnd the British Government
would have preferred to prepare a coin
piehunslve plan, with allied nnd neu
tral co-operation. Mr. Chamberlain'
snid, but in view of the urgency of the
need and despite the financial situ
ation in the United Kingdom the Brit
ish Government had informed the United
States thnt in nddition to the 12.ri00,
000 (normally S(!2..-i()0,000) voted for
the current financial .vear, it was pro
posed to contribnte a further sum, not
exceeding half the sum contributed bv
