IRISH BILL IS
Up PTOCOMMONS
yd-GeOrge's Measure Outlines
Government Similar to Our
State System.

London, Dec. 20.-The proposed Irish
bill, which Premier Lloyd -Georgei will
outline in the house of commons on
government for Ireland analogous to
the state governmental system in
America. It is understood to provide
for separate parliaments for Ulster
and Southern Ireland respectively
with a superior body chosen by both
sections. All of the bodies are to be
responsible regarding imperial affairs,
to the British parliament, to which
Representatives would be elected, as
the states elect members to the Ameri-
can house of representatives.
The idea will be to give large
amount of autonomy. to each section
of Ireland, with thoroughly easy ma
chinery providing for their combina-
ton as soon as they desire to unite.
the bill being intended to pave the
road for elimination of the idea of the
partition of ireland. On a combined
Ireland it is indicated even greater
powers may be given than are pro-
posed for the separate sections.
It is expected the premierss an
nouncement will be most conciliatory
and comprehensive in outlining what
he hopes Will be an acceptapie pidH.
The new scheme of government dit
fers considerably from the plans pre-
viously discussed and carries conces-
sions on various questions much fur
ther The government in framing the
bill is understood to have kept before
it as primary points, first, that the
secession of Ireland and the estab-
lishment of an independent Irish re-
public could not be tolerated but fhat
on the other hand the present system
of government control could not be
continued and that it was impossible
to ignore the fact that there We're two
great sections of Ireland, each or
whose claims must be considered
The bill is understood to providing
for granting the fullest possible free
dom to the two Irish legislatures ad-
ministering their own affairs with
powers similar to those held by the
states in America.
When questions affecting the en-
pire arise, they would come under
the consideration of the imperial par
lament in which Ireland would have
Ia voice.

To Period Ending June
Legislation Continuing Federal
Control Completed and
Sent to President.
SENATOR GAY OPPOSES ACT
Louisiana Statesman Says 1t Is
Unfair and Will Increase
Price of Sugar.

Washington, Dec. 20.-LegisIation
continuing federal control of sugar
through 1920 but limiting the licens-
ing power of the United States sugar
equalization board to the period end
ing next June 80 was completed today
by congress and sent to the White
House.
BY vote of so to IL the senate to-
day adopted the compromise on the
bill to continue government control
of sugar during 1920, accepting the
house amendments increasing authority
of the United States sugar equalization
board, but limiting its licensing pow
ers to June 80 next.
{ On the motion of Senator McNary to
concur in the house amendments with
restriction of the licensing powers of
the board to June 80, next, three re-
publicans, Gronna, of North Dakota;
Poindexter of Washington and Smoot
Of Utah Joined nine democrats in op-
position. The democrats We're Gay,
Louisiana: Henderson, Nevada; Rams
del, Louisiana; Smith. Georgia; Smith.
South Carolina; Thomas, Colorado; !;
Underwood, Alabama; Walsh, Mon
tana and Williams. Mississippi
In the limited debate preceding
the senate vote on the bill Senator
Gay, democrat of Louisiana made the
principal address in general opposition
to continuance of government control.
He declared it unfair to single out
sugar for control, in peace times under
war time powers and argued that gov
ernment control would increase rather
than decrease price to American con-
Sumers.
we are simply playing into the
hands of the refiners and injuring
American producers said Senator
Gay. This bill could well be called
an act to benefit Cuban planters to the
detriment of American producers and
to add to the Golfers of the sugar
