The hon. gentleman withdraws his amendment.

Mr. MURRAY MacLAREN (St. John-Albert) moved that Bill No. 91, for the relief of Albert Davis Blagrave, be now read the second time.
Mr. WOODSWORTH:
I will move my
amendment to this bill.
Mr. MacLAREN:
Notwithstanding the remarks of my friend from Winnipeg North Centre a few minutes ago, he now takes exception to my motion for the second reading of the bill. The applicant is a resident of Montreal.
Mr. WOODSWORTH:
I will withdraw it.
Mr. SPEAKER:
Mr. Woodsworth moves, seconded by Mr. Evans, that the word "now" be struck out and that the following words be added: "on the 12th of May, 1930."
Mr. MacLAREN:
Mr. Speaker, I do not know whether you heard the request by the hon. member for Winnipeg North Centre for the withdrawal of the amendment.
Mr. BOURASSA:
It is in the hands of the house.
Mr. SPEAKER:
Does the hon. member
wish to withdraw the amendment?
Mr. WOODSWORTH:
Yes. Since it is in the province of Quebec I will withdraw it.
Mr. SPEAKER:
It can be withdrawn only by consent of the house. Is it the pleasure of the house that the hon. gentleman shall have leave to withdraw the amendment?
No.
