PAYMENT OF MEMBERS. By Cable—Press Association —Copyright. London, May 15. The views of Liberals regarding the payment of members are diverse.

It was intended as a supplement to and not as a substitute for a Bill dealing with the relations between the Houses. Given the sort of majority the Radicals had held in the House of Commons, a Radical majority in the House <i Lords was not only possible under his scheme but such would ensue.
