London, Oct.24\u2014Political experts and the editorial utterances in the; papers this morning generally express the view that no one expec the Gov seument to redigu as a result of the véverse vote in the House of Con mons yesterday and that the circumstances of the defeat of the Pilots amendment io nowise need entail such a stop.The incilent however, is regarded oa sH sides as one which has given the administration & service shock, a repetition of which it could hardly survive .The vote is generally described as mi assertion of the independence of the House of Commons and a revolt against the affeged dictation of miu- isters\u2014a determination to reassert the supremacy which the Commons surrendered to the Cabinet during the of the coalition, among whom Sir Edward Carson, was conspicuous, votod against the Government.These, fooling prevailing among the Conserts Goverament is trying in the present stage of the Gill ¢o annul amend- mets which thos hostile to aliens secured in the committee stage.Some surpride is expresedd that the labor members aod tho go-calied drce Liberai; joined in the vote sgwinst the Government oa this issue, thereby idenaifying thameetves with the anti- alien faction, contrary to the avowed principles of the lenders.It is believed in some quarters that the Government on Monday will ask the House to re-consider the vote and in view of cermin circumstances it is regarded as possible that the House nay comply.These circomstinces concern the convention entered into between Great Britain aod Femce in 1918, in which it was agreed that Feench pliots might bring French Whips imo certain English ports sad that English pilots should be graced a reciprocal] privilege in French ports.It is contended thet unless the House of Commons «cevises yester- duy's vote the Government wifi be compelled to denounce the conven tion and fncur the reproach of treating the compact as a \"ecrap oi paper.\u201d To this anti-alien reply is that the convention was concluded secrefly and that information about was only dragged from a reluctant Govertiment duirng yesterday's debate.Diseatisfaction is also expressed at the way in which Edward Shont, Home Secretary, handied the bill in she Qammons, strengthening the be lief that he wil probably resign.CARB RAADATVVANARTD NO TAX EXEMPTION FOR GRAND TRUNK Toronto, Ont., Oct.24\u2014 Word was received by Mayor Church today from Hon.J.D.Reid, Minister of Railways, that the Goveramem had no intention of claim'ng exemption from municipal taxes for the Grand Trunk Railway property after it becomes à Government road.There is nothing in the biil before Parliament, raid Mr.Reid, that would change the situat'on, and the taxes must be naid as heretofore.The Government would have ne\u2018ther tie des're nor the power to claim exemption from taxes.The assessment of the Grand Trunk \u2018n Toronto is $11,871,366, tu.at a rate of twenty eight mls, the 1019 tax rate yields a revenue to the city of $332,306.-583200V20G0C0O0OS000oODCOOODS GANAOCOAGGQGAGAGGAGONODENDONS \u201csaasnsacase PRESIDENT WILSON APPEALS TO COAL MINERS AND OWNERS URGES THEM TO REACH AN AQREEMENT OR ACCEPT ARBITRATION, Washington, D.C., Oct.24\u2014Pres- idem \\ilson todey appealed to the coal miners and operators ¢o use their efforts to effect an sgreament in line with the suggestion made dy Secretary Wilson, and in event of a failure to sumbit the question at issue to a board of arbitration.The Presidents appeal follows: \u201cI have been watching with deep and sincere interest your efforts to bring about a just settlement of the differences between the operators and the coal miners in the bituminous coal fields of the country.It is to be hoped that the good judgment that bas been exercised by both operators and miners in years gone by in the adjustment of their differences win agin prevail in the present crisis.\u201cAH organized society js dependent upon the maintenance of the fuel gup- ply, for the continuance of its existence.The Government has appealed with success to other classes of workers to postpone similar questions until a reasonable adjustment could be arrived at.\u201cWith the parties of this contro- veray rests the responsibility of seeing that the fuel supply of the nation is maintained.At this time when the world is in need of more supplies it would be a cruel neglect of our high duty to hummaity to fail them.\u201cI have read with interest the suggestion made by you thst the wage scale committees of the operators and miners go into conference with reservation for the purpose of negotiating an agreement as though no demands had been made or rejected, having due regard to the interests of their respective groups.I am in accord with that suggestion.No body of men know Letter the details.intricacies and technicalities of mining than do the miners and operators.No body of seu can work out the details of the wage scale on à more équitable basis.Their judgment would undoubtedly be based upon a sum total knowledge of the industry.\u201cWhatever their difficulties may be, no matter how widely divergent their viewpoints may be from each other it is a duty they owe society to make an earnest effort to.negotiate those differences and to keep the mines of our country in operation.\u201cAfter aN, the public interest in this vital matter is the paramount consideration of the Government and admits of no other action than that of consideration of a peaceful settlement of the matter as suggested by you.If for any reason miners and operators fail to come to a mutual understanding the interests of the public are of such vital importance in connection with the production of coal that it js incumbent upon them to refer the matter in dispute to a board of arbitration for determination and to continue the operation of the mines, pending the decision of the Board.\u201d REFERENDUM VOTE MISUNDERSTANDING CITIZEN'S LIBERTY LEAGUE MAY DEMAND RE-COUNT IN ONTARIO.Toronto, Ont., Oct.2é\u2014Serious misunderstanding on the part of Deputy Returning Officers us to the way in which referendum votes should have been counted is alleged by the Citizens\u2019 Liberty League and N is said a re-vote muy be demanded by the League.J.E.Bell, of the Liberty League, claims that certain deputy returning ofticers wrongly counted ballots, not understanding whether \u201cfor\u201d meant \"yes\" oc \u201cno\u201d, and he says one Toronto deputy returning officer counted about 500 votes wrongly because of his confused idea as to what these answers on the baMots meant.Representations have been mude to Ron.I, B.Lucas to the effect that a recount is necessary in order to ascertain the will of the people.Appeal to Allan Dymond, Chief Plection Clerk for Ontario, pointing out that whereas the members of the League were entitled to the rights and privileges of candi- andum vote, :1¢ officers had not recognized this right.Mr.Bell's letter to Mr.Dymond concludes ae follows.\u201cWill you kindly arrange to have the returning officer for each electoral district in Ontario forward to us a statement showing the total number of votes polled for the affirmative and negative sides and ballots spoiled or rejected at each polling sub-division and a grand total siiowing the total number voting \u201cno\u201d or \u201cyes\u201d in the different electoral districts of Ontario.\u201d Rev.Ben Spence had no direct statement to make with regard to the Liberty League's protest.\u201cA poor loser is a poor
