ASQU|TH TAKES

RULE QUESTION

tnV MORNING jouSNAt sPrciAL LsAsGp w'Pui
London, March 30.--(By the AS
sociated Press. )-Herbert II. Az
quith, former premier and ad-
vocate Of a one parliament Ireland,
took issue in the house of commons
today on the home rule question
with Premier Lloyd George, whose
plan for two parliaments for Ire
land Mr.. Asquith characterized as
absolutely unacceptable.
Mr. Asquith spoke today against
the bill, but, contrary to eXpecta-
tions, Mr. Lloyd George deferred
his remarks until tomorrow. The
arguments take two principal
directions. From the opponents of
the bill that it is useless to press
the measure, as it is certain to be
contemptuously rejected by the
Irish people, and, from the sup
porters of the bill, that to grant
self determination under existing
conditions would be equivalent to
consenting to the proclamation Of
an Irish republic, which no sane
government could permit.

Cincinnati TO Cleveland and Back.
Twice Across Ohio, in Is Hrs. rs min.
A motoring sensation was created in the state
of Ohio when Cliff Lenders, without stop
ping the engine of his Franklin Touring Car,
reduced the touring time from Cincinnati to
Cleveland nd back. He covered the Ssh
miles in IS hours and As minutes of actual
running. The odds were 4 to l that the
previously announced time of II hours could
rot be made.
Covering this route at any speed is thought by
Ohio motorists to be a severe test of any
motor vehicle, SO bad are the roads. Yet thu
Franklin averaged over IS miles an hour. Rain
which froze on the riders and turned into i
binding snowstorn added to the difficulties.
