WOMENS' FRANCHISE. LONDON, March 15
Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, Prime Minister, has refused to grant another day for the discussion of Mr Dickinson's Women's Franchise Bill. (Mr Dickinson's Bill drew first place'among private members' Bills on the list for consideration, but when it came on in the House of Com mons it was "talked out."). LAND SETTLEMENT AND TARIFF REFORM, LONDON, March.lS. Mr Austen Chamberlain, who was Chancellor of the Exchequer, in the Balfour Government, speaking at a dinner given by the United Club, emphasised the importance of the commercial union of the Empire. He reasserted the necessity of food taxes. If tariff reform was coupled with the cry "Back to the land," many difficulties confronting that policy would be removed.
