Unsplintable Glass in Public Vehicles.Commander SOUTHBY asked the Home Secretary whether

he would consider taking steps to make it compulsory forall hackney carriages and other vehicles plying for hire tobe fitted with unsplinterable glass.-Mr. SHORT replied :The jurisdiction of my right hon. friend in this matter islimited to London.
