Sir WALKER SMITH moved the rejection of theBill on the ground that, apart from the fact thatthere was far more important business to occupyParliament at the present time, the measure wasunnecessary, and indeed contrary to the publicinterest.

Lieut.-Colonel FREMANTLE said that the Bill wasthe only way to preserve the countryside. It wasessential to have some kind of control to deal withfuture development. It was economical to lookahead. They must have this combination of socialeffort together with individual effort as civilisationadvanced. He urged Members of the House to

recognise that this Bill was the culmination of a

general agreement among those who had studied thequestion. He had been asked by the London CountyCouncil to say that they gave their general supportto the second reading of the Bill, although theyreserved the right to suggest certain amendments.

After further debate the motion for rejectionwas negatived, and the Bill was read a second timewithout a division.
