Dominion Status to Be “Suspended”, N o t Revoked.

LONDON, ec. ﬂt-(OP. Gable)- Tbe bill to suspend Newfoundland’: status as a Dominion now awaits Royal assent. The House oi Com- mons tonight agreed to an amend- ment inserted ln the bill by the House o! Lords, which substituted a reference to “suspension oi the op- eration oi the letters-patent" in- stead o! a reierence to their revoca- tlon.

Malcolm MacDonald, Under-sec- retary ior Dominion Aliairs, ex- plained the amendment was in ful- fillment oi a pledge given by J. B. Thomas, Dominion Secretary, that he would introduce proposals to en- sure the letters-patent should not be revoked but their operation sus-

pended.

W.lsunn,onbehaliotthelabor opposition, expressed plemure with the government ior accepting the amendment with which the oppos- ition agreed. The bill was then returned to the House oi Lords where it will await the Royal assent which makes it law. The measure suspends Newfound- land! self-government and puts the island under an appointed commis- sion until its s ‘ ‘ position is restored.

(Canadian Prom Cable)

LONDON, Dec. ﬂit-Hope the solution would end the long con- troverxy between the British and Indian governments on the matter was expressed by Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald today when he told the House of Commons the British Government would hence- forth contribute 87.ﬂ00.000 annually

He referredwthe long bickering over the cost, of raising and train- ing British troops im- aervice in In- dia. A judicial advisory tribunal appointed more than a year ago has just, completed its investigation and the Prime Minister said the two governments had accepted its recommendations.

The government oi India will ac- cept responsibility ior the charges and in turn would receive a grant from British revenues, the Prime Minister explained.
