Intensified Warfare Marks Close Of
the Week

Dublin, Dec. 18-Intensified warfare
the usual accompaniment of peace
parleys-narked the close of an
eventful week in Ireland. Extensive
raids and wholesale, arrests by the
police and military and the increased
activity Of the Irish Republican army
in attacking the crown forces will
make up the news in the Irish papers

about the efforts of the peace makers
to bring about a settlement. but if
the optimistic predictions of the prin-
cipal intermediates are fulfilled a
truce is near at hand.
Martial law circular number one"
issued over the signature of General
Sir Neville MacReady today says that
all the forces of the crown may rest
assured that SO long as they in trying
to restore order do not exceed what
is reasonably necessary for the pat
pose they will have full approval a..d

Believed No Chance
for Passage Bill to
Cut South in House
CBy Col. Winfield Jones,

Washington. D" c., Dec ao-(Special)
Efforts are now being made by some
! members of the House and Senate to
reduce the House representation from
the southern states. 1t is claimed this
shoula De done because the negro is
practically disfranchisd in nearly every
one of the southern states despite the
fact that in many sections of the south
he is much more numerous than the
whites.
During the recent Presidential Con-
gressional campaign threats were made
by the Republicans that such action
would be taken. and the first move to
carry out the plans of the Republicans
is seen in the bill to reduce southern
representation, introduced by Repre-
sentative Tinkham of Massachusetts.
The Republicans claim that as a
large percentage of the people of the
| south are not allowed to vote, and In
this claim they refer to the disfran.
chised negro. that the south, therefore.
should not be allowed to have and is
not entitled under the Constitution to
have the number Of Houes seats that
are now held from that section Of the
country.
There is considerable basis for this
claim of the Republicans for 1t is a
well known fact that the negro il not
allowed to participate In political at
fairs in the south. and in most of the
southern states is completely disfran-
chised. as completely disfranchised, al
most. as the half million voteless IN
habitants of the District Of Columbia,
who are not even allowed the American
privilege Of electing their own NUM-
cipal officers. to say nothing of being
deprived of representatives and sena-
tors in Congress and voice in the
electoral college.
In the present Congress the House
has 10S members from the southern
states Were the number reduced be-
cause of the disfranchised negroes
this number would be considerably
cut down, even under the new appor-
