Dublin. Sept. f6--When Great
Britain signed the armistice terms. she
agreed to President Wilson'S princi-
pies. including the right of self-deter-
nina ton for small nations. but she
did not agree to the application of that
principle within the British empire.
In this way Ian Macpherson, chief
secretary for Ireland today explained
the British attitude toward the Irish
question.
That is the premier's idea on this
point and I think ii is right and just,
said Mr.. Macpherson.
