THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., TUESDAY, DECEMBER 3, COMMONS UPHOLDS ACT TO PROTECT INDUSTRIES — Liberals’ Attack on Measure Fails Under Vote of 269 to 207 After Defense by Government. By the Assoclated Press. LONDON, December 5.—The house of commons last night, after keen debate, rejected by a vote of 269 to 207 an amendment, offered by Sir John Simon, liberal, to the address in renly to the speech from the throne Jemanding the repeal of the safeguarding of industries act. Sir John's attack on the act was based on its protectionist character and the fact that it has been ex- tended far beyond the original inten- tions, As an instance, Sir John cited that in the chemical industry the act affected more than 6,000 articles. Sir Alfred Mond, who, as minister of health in the Lloyd George cab- inet, was one of those responsible for the passage of the measure, ad- mitted that the act had gone far beyond the original intentions. He advocated the appointment of a se- lect committee to investigate Its ad- ministration. Sir Philip Lloyd-Graeme, president of the board of trade, defending the act on behalf of the government, argued that it would be extremely unwise to repeal it at the present time. The debate was interesting from the political viewpoint as a test of how far the Lloyd George liberals were prepared to support the As- quithian liberals in their oppdsition o the protectionist proclivities of the present government and there- fore influence the question of a re- union of the two liberal wings.

For a time, it was sald, Mrs. Oben- chain would be & guest at the resi- dence of one of the jall matrons, to whose home she went last night. She declined to discuss her plans for the future. When she left the jail it was to the applause of the prisoners within and a crowd estimated at thousands that had gathered outside to get a last glimpse of one of Los Angeles county's best known prisoners. Tie prisoners sang songs when she left, the two favorites being “Here Comes the Bride,” and “I Love You Truly.” “I am glad to get out of jail.” was Mrs. Obenchain’s only statement to reporters. She posed for a2 number of pictures before her departure tonight, for which she attired herself in fashion- able garments of black and wore a bouquet of red roses. She made no statement in connec- tion with a report that she might re- marry her divorced husband, Ralph Obenchain, attorney of Chicago. Meantime, Burch was arraigned on the charge of insanity 4nd his hear- ing before the Los Angeles county lunacy commission set for Thursday, December 7.
