Public libraries and naval estimates debate in Parliament
A select committee motion on public libraries in Britain and Ireland leads to changes as Mr Ewart calls for broader inquiry. Navy Estimates see a 59 to 144 vote against reducing manpower. A new writ is ordered for the Northern Hampshire division after Sir William Heathcote resigns. Lords discuss transport to the Cape and Polish refugees’ relief amid budget scrutiny of railways and Poor Law settlements.
