Eventual _Voting Frivilegeq Seen, Howdve¥; irr SmaltMar- gin by WihichBill-Loses. By ihe Asegai {gg LONDON The fact thai “before many years women will be en- titled to vote in both houses of Parii- | ment is deduced from the rejection hy: only two votes yesterday in the House {of Lords of Lord Astor's private bill “to enable peeresses in their own right ‘to sit and vote with British peers. Even the venérable Lord Salisbury, ispeaking for the government, said he had _decided to vote against the bill £3igh reluctance.” Another govern- ment metmbef, the Earl of Birkenhead, who described himself as “an unre: pentant opponent of woman's_fran- chise,” stated what may be regarded as the government attitude on the issue—namely, that such an important reform could not be, properly dealt with by a_private bill, but should be brought about with the overdue gen- | eral reform of the House of Lords. Lord Birkenhead said he thought the present government could not fail to deal with the reform of the House of Lords. Astor Cites Parallel. Ldrd Astor, in moving his bill, maifitained that if women were quali- fied; to sit in the House of Commons and’.become ministers of the crown, they surely were fit to sit on the back benches of the House of Lords. Lord Banbury, who moved the re jection of the bill, retold the story | of a‘debate in the House of Commons | when Lady Astor tugged at | ttails in an effort to induce stop speaking so that she and her liquor bill might have the right y of the house. He said that experience did not encourage him to desire women in the House of Lords Lord Birkenhead caused laughter by remarking that among the sup porters of the bill were fhe husbands of women of high distinction who sat An the other house.
