HOUSE
OF
LORDS
HEARD
FROM
The
House
of
Lords
has
brought
itself
into
the
limelight
again
by
amending
the
Widows'
Pensions
BilHri
such
a
way
as
to
make
it
partially
inoperative.
This
will
undoubted
bring
down
on
the
heads
ottfhe
noble
lords
the
wrath
of
thd
'British
toilers
and
trouble
is
in
store.
In
British
Columbia
there'
is
a
great
deal
of
criticism
of
the
fact
that
if
a
widow
has
a
house
in
which
to
live
she
cannot
draw
the
pension.
She
must
be
absolutely
without
i
resource
of
any
kind
and
then
the
pension
is
not
large
enough
to
keep
her.
While
we
have
not
the
details
of
the
British
bill,
the
situation
is
likely
to
be
somewhat
similar.
Labor
takes
the
stand
that
a
woman
who
is
bereaved
of
her
natural
support
is
eligible,
for
support
from
the
state.
Apparently
the
British
Liberals
took
a
similar
view,
for
they
voted
in
favor
of
the
bill
