discharge all powers not specifically
reserved to the imperial parliament,
The premier said that the Irish
contribution to the imperial services
was estimated ut e1s,o0o.ooo $780,
0oo.oo0) annually. A Joint exchequer
board would settle the rate of con-
tribution for tho future and the ques-
ton Of taxable capacity. 1t was pro-
posed to place e 100000 s5,oo0,ooO
at ths disposal Of each Of the two
pariiaments to cover the initial ex-
penditure.
The representation OF Ireland at
Westminster, Mr.. Lloyd-George an
nounced, would be reduced under the
proposed measure to forty members,
as in the act of 1914.
Each OF the two parliaments would
have taxation powers equivalent to
those Of the state legislatures Of the
United States. The income tax and
excess profits super taxes would be
levied inperially. The Irish parlia-
ments would control all local matters
and all machinery for the mainten-
ance Of law and order except the
higher Judiciary and the army and
navy.
The customs and excise services
would be retained by the imperial
parliament, the premier stated, but
when Ireland was united 1t would be
open to the imperial parliament to
consider whether united Ireland
would have control Of the customs.
The premier said the bill would
contain clauses protecting the rights
Of minorities. The postal service
would not be transferred, he added,
until there was a single parliament
in Ireland.
The government proposed to give
the Irish government the advantage
Of all duties and taxes raised in ex-
cess Of fair contribution to the
imperial services and q free gift in
addition to finance the development
Of the Irish parliament, the premier
said. ...
1t would rest with the Irish peo-
pie themselves, said Mr.. Lloyd
George. whether they desired union.
Tho consent Of the British parlia-
ment would not be required. and in
order to offer a greater inducement
to union the government proposed
that certain additional taxing powers
should be intrusted to the Irish par
lament when the union was accom-
plished.
All these proposals, added the pre-
mier, would be embodied in the bill
for the consideration Of the parlia-
ment and he appealed to all to give
the measure consideration.

CONCESSIONS TO IRELAND.
British Premier Outlines Homo Rule
Measure.


N ,ondon. Dec, 23.-Premier Lloyd
George in the house Of commons last
evening presented the details of the
government Irish hons rule bill.
The premier said parliament must
get the fact right into its mind that
in the existing circumstances no pos
sible scheme for Irish home rule wac
Universally acceptable. Therefore, ne
continued, parliament must assume the
responsibility and propose what II
thinks fair and Just. A. settlement
would be found not in the enactment
Of q home rule scheme, but in Its
working.
Ireland, said tho premier. was the
only country in Europe, except Russia,
where the classes who elsewhere were
on the side of law and order were out
of sympathy with the machinery of the
government While Ireland was never
So prosperous as today, the. fact re-
manned, he said, that Ireland never
was SO alierated from British rule as
she is today.
Any attempt; at secession, the pre-
mier announced, would be fought with
the same determination, force and
resolution as had been shown by the
northern states in America.
The premier said it was proposed to
establish self-governmont over the
whole of Ireland and ocreate two par
liaments, one in the north and one In
the south.
Every opportunity would be given
ireland to establish unity if she de-
sired it and council would be estab-
lished at the outset. selected by the
two legislatures, to form connecting
link between the two parts Of the
country.
The two legislatures to be created
in Ireland, the premier said. would be
clothed with full constituent powers
to create a single Irish legislature to
