LADY RHONDDA WINS SEAT
AMONG XORDS
By Associated Pross, London,
March 2. The petition of Lady
Ithondda to sit in the House of Lords
was granted by the committee on
privileges of the House of Lords
today. If she takes the seat awarded
her by this ruling, she will bo the
first woman to sit in the upper house
of the Britiah Parliament, as Lady
Astor was in the lower chamber.
Lady Ittiondcla is the daughter of
Viscount Rhondda. Great Britain's
wartime-food controller, who, died in
1U18 fiom an illness brought on by
overwork. His . only child was a
daUKhter. the wife of Sir Humphrey
Mackworth.
After Lady Rhondda's right to- the
present title was established her
counsel argued that the sex disquali
cation removal act clearly applied
to a case like the present, and that
the disability existing in the past now
being removed, Lady Rhondda, was
entitled to sit in the House of Lords.
After further argument, the At
torney General, on behalf of the
Grown, said ho raised no objection to
the petition, which was therefore
granted.
Interviewed after the decision,
Lady Rhondda expressed her delight
that the case had gone in her favor.

has passed a searching examination
at the hands of tho life insurance
companies, and is declared to be en
titled to a policy of good physical
and economic health."
This is the foreword to a pamphlet
Some Statistical Reflections on the
State of the Nation in 1921," issued
by the Association of Life Insurance
Presidents. The pamphlet sets forth
the combined results of four sur
veys which show that the people of
the United States had in 1921 the
health est year of their existence;
that they bought $8,500,000;000 of
new life insurance, and that the pro
portion of accumulated borrowing on
policies is well below the high level
of 1914 while tho assets held as re
serves to mature- policies have made
substantial growth. N. Y. HeraTd.
