ROUSE OF LORDS DELETE THE CLAUSE. CUTTING ATTACK ON LLOYD- GEORGE. "SUBORDINATE POSITION" RE- COMMENDED. The House of Lords on Thursday resumed their consideration of Clause 26 of the Education Bill (the Weilsh Council clause), which was, on Earl Cawdor's motion, even- tually tlirown out by 109 votes to 44-UtJ- position majority, 65. Marquis of Londonderry (U.) said he had oever known a more extraordinary propooa submitted to Parliament than this proposal of a separate education council tor V\aie<s. To me minci it was absolutely impracticable. If they were to create a separate council of education tor Wales, why were they not to create separate iocat government anLt. ag- ritiiLlurai uULhontle6 tor the .PnnClpaJity i lie had racked his brains ill vain ±or a reason why Wales should be treated diifer- ently froiii other parts of the United King- dOlll, unless the raason. were that, this was reward for the revolt which Mr. Lloyd- George had led against the Education Aci of 1902. 0 Eari of Crewe said the Government pro- posed by this clause to centralise Welsh e>e- Uientary education in a similar manner to the accomplished centralisation of interme- diate oduration. For -hat there was a very general demand in Wales. So far as lie knew tha Parliamentary representatives of 3-les were unanimously in favour of the clause, and it was to be noted that the Bishops of St. Asaph and St. David, though they had severely criticised the clause, had Hot in express terms said that they were averse to the idea of a council for Wales, ut had seemed to infer that if such a ooun- <:11 was to be formed it should be given the shape of a. reconstituted Central Board, with additional powers. If as a condition for he I fCcfcptance of the clause they were asked i ^kstitute the Board of Education for *be Tronrvrv the G-i>ernment would be per- fectly prepared to consider that proposition and to make the necessary alteration in the clause. Continuing, he did not for a :no- defer.r] |j1e agitation which had taken Place in Wales. He deplored man*- of the incidents of that agitation, but he could not orget that if the Government in 1902 had *>ot RO completely ignored the sentiment of be Population of Wales the differences ^ould never have arisen. If the serious lnJustiee inflicted bv the Act of 1902 were ^medied in this Blll those differences would Ie out.
