FATE OF THE LORDS.
LABOUR AMENDMENT. BUDGET PROPOSALS. MR T. P. O'CONNOR SPEAKS OUT. (Received This Day, 9.20 a.m.) LONDON, March 23. At a meeting of tho Labour members of the House of Commons, it was decided to move an amendment to tho Premier's resolutions. The amendment will take the form of a resolution in favour of the abolition of the House of Lords. Tho Daily Chronicle (Liberal) states that the passage of the Budr get through the House of Commons is practically assured, not withstanding the fact that no compact has yet been made with the Nationalists. Mr T. P. O'Connor, speaking at Glasgow, said that instead of increasing Irish taxation by two millions, the Budget would not add half n million in the way of taxation. There was not, he added, the slightest doubt that the whisky tax would bo removed.
