In the Northern Parliament on Wednesday Sir James Craig said
thatemoreloformation was wanted before the Ulster Govern- ment could come to a definite conclusion. He and his colleagues hoped to go toLondon in order to discuss matters with the Govern- ment on the spot. For the rest, Sir James Craig devoted his speech to an exceedingly strong protest against the words of the Lord Chancellor about the Emergency Measure passed by the Northern Parliament. In advocating the advantages of rectifying the boundary of North-East Ulster, the Lord Chancellor had said that a rectification would render impossible such an unhappy incident as that of a Jew days ago, in which the popu- larly elected bodies of one or two of those districts were excluded from their habitation by representatives of the Northern Parlia- ment on the ground that they were not discharging their duties properly.
