Amendments proposed to the Lemieux act were again before the House tonight and again they remained a passed. Previously the House had talked on capital As exemplified in the British Empire steel corporation. Reversion to a labor topic revealed that much of the previous discussion had been at Cross purposes. Under the Lemieux act men employed in a Public Utility who thinly they have a grievance can apply for a Board of conciliation providing the application has the approval of the majority of Union Mem Bers present at a meeting specially called for the purpose. The amending Bill which came Down from the Senate where it was introduced by the minister of modifies that provision.
