SAMUEL -FAvoRs FEDERALIsDL.

Samuel came out as a whole hearted supporter of Federalism, making the great point that 224,- 0005oO0 people, half the white popu- lation of the world. live under Fed eral conditions. Said he:
 Tt should be possible in this coun- try to devise arrangements similar to those established in so many countries of the world. With Ulster excluded for six years there ought to be plenty of time to work out the details
 At the same time it is evident that the Federal solution is meeting with only 1ukewarm support from the ma jority of the Liberals and Irish mem bers.
 One prominent Tory, G. Cave. last night urged a settlement on the basis of making Ireland a municipality in stead of a nation. John Dillon inter rupted him:
 Ireland will not look at it." he said.
 ssHe prefers civil war to reason able settlement retorted Cave.
 stsIf I accepted the gent1kman's pro- posal I should be hunted out of every Nationalist constituency in, Ireland. 7 Dillon came back.

 ii Balfour insisted an immediate general election or a referendum in fact on any device likely to pre- vent the House of Commons from dealing with the Ulster problem He enlarged on the question of "op- tiona1 obedience" for the army and played with the federal solution.
 Herbert Samuel, Postma master-Gen- eraI, replying, made the best speech so far delivered for the Government He quickly smashed the optional army obedience argument by declar- ing: fesIt will lead sure to the mess room becoming a debating society.
