THE ALIEN PROBLEM

DEBATE IN THE COMMONS.

(By Cable.—Prens Association.—Copyright

(Renter's Telegrams J (Received July 14th, 5.5 p.m.)

LONDON. Jul* 12

In the House of Commons, Sir George Cave, in moving the second reading of the British Nationality and Status of Aliens Bill, said that all the selfgoverning Dominions and India, excepting Australia, approved of the draft, but Australia had indicated no dissent from the main purpose of the Bill, which was to give wider powers and to revoke naturalisation certificates. The Bill did not deal • with the many difficult questions in connexion with the law of nationality, but he hoped the policy of making nationality laws would not be abandoned. The Government proposed to refer the question to an Advisory Committee of Experts. The Bill empowered the Home Secretary to revoke naturalisation certificates where they were fraudulently obtained, and also to revoke certificates of disloyal persons, criminals, notoriously bad characters, and persons who had lived abroad for seven years. The Bill was read a second time.
