THE NATIONAL REGISTER INTEMPERANCE HIKGLED WITB IRRELEVANT" Interesting comment is offered to-«Jsy en the National Register Bill debate in the Hoase of Commons. The" Daily Telegraph," which has "played the I game from the firt. days of the war, a^ks: What is one to make of the type of opposition which, after hearing it authoritatively and clearly stated on be- half of the Cabinet that the Bill does not mean conscription," proceeds to de- duo passionately that the Bill means netting else, and is therefore. c;"gnH, ful "? Sir Ivor Herbert's phrase, "i.- tenJ:n, ming;?? with jrMievano?," j« fno kindest thing that could ba baid of it. Tbc Telegraph" 6a elsewhere that Sir Alfred Mold 's practical vi?w -tvai4 i that there ought to be a register of .in- dustries ae well as of men and women, I and in his plain blunt way lie observed l that evor ii the Register did Do good, it at least could do no harm. The Daily JSfows and Ider It. is in many respects a misfortune that the debate yesterday should have as- sumed the angry and bitter tone which it did. Much of the heat imparted into the discussion seems to us to have been quite unnecessary. The Parliamentary correspondent of th* "Daily Chronicle" says: Hir Alfred Murin made a very spirited reply to Mr. Snowden. Be thinks the Bill ought to hóe been brought forward long ago. "It will tell us wliet we have got and where we have gut it." Tn the event of com- pulsion beinp necessary in the future, the information contained in this register will facilitate the work. That, to Sir Alfred Mond. is a merit, not an objec- tion. The debate is fully reported on Page f.
