COPENHAGEN, November -2l-(As
ted Press)-There is much speculation
in Dublin as to the meetings Of the
Grand Committee of the Irish COnven-
ton which are taking place in Trinity
College. 1t is expected that the com
mittee soon will report to the coiven
ton, and by then it should be possible
to form a pretty definite guess as to
whether the convention can accOT4 plisb
the work entrusted to it. ed
The convention having debated at
large, with a very free Interchange Of
views, the various aspects of the Irish
question, directed its Grand Committee
to attempt to evolve a plan or plans
for submission to the general body. II
the committee can do that, the difficult
ty will have been surmonnted and an
agreed result seem certain.
The committee is really a smaller
edition of the convention, containing
Representatives Of all the parties and
Including its best minds and most ex.
perienced men. Whatever Il agrees to
recommend is likely Of adoption by the
Convention. Several references have
been made in public speeches by mem
beers of the convention to its work.
They have come from Ulster men,
Southern Unionists and Nationalist,
government nominees and county coun.
cIll0rs. They have all been sanguine
in tone. ''''"..a bt@s-

is known to be in touch with some lead

speeches at the convention as freely as
if they had appeared in the news.
papers, furnishes no suggestion that
the Ulster men have as yet agreed to
a plan of settlement So. ...
Unlike the Nationalists, the Ulster
delegates are bound to consult their
organization outside and a meeting has
been held between the delegates and
the Advisory Committee appointed by
the Ulster Unienist Council at which
a full discussion of the situation took
place. During his recent visit to Lon
