They lost one argument they urged all board employees be placed under control of the civil service commimlon. They won another involving legislative effect of the board's bylaws. The bill went through committee stage with several clauses standing for further consicleratlc/.

One of the highlights of the discussion was provided by Con- servative leader Bennett who was protesting against too much cen- tralization of power in Ottawa. He

Marine Minister Howe admitted the snow conversation but said it was only 3', an aside and in the ordinary course of reporting to Ottawa. It was not necessary for the men to ask Ottawa's permiss- 10l'I but he did it as a matter of course. _

One section oi the bill as draft- ed would give the national board Power to pass bylaws which would have full force and effect without revlew by anyone. Conservative members protested against this, wlde D0Wer which, they said, really amounted to the legislative power of Parliament. The Marine Mm. ister agreed with them.
