Government Criticised In AGRA
monious Discussion In House
of Commons.
SITUATION IS SERIOUS:
Unlonist Leaders Declares Victory To-
With Assassins and Government
Seems Powerless To Maintain
9ancttty Of Life.

London-Moving the adjournment Of
the House of Commons for the purpose
of calling attention to the rioting in
Londonderry, Lieut.. Col. Wilfred Ash
ley, Unionist, declared that victory
rested with the assassins and not with
the government, which appeared
powerless to maintain the sanctity Of
lite. The chief secretary for Ireland
and the vfceroy, he said, were prison
ers IN their own houses; heQfficials
OF Dublin were equally prisoner8k and
obliged to take exercise in the caaf lie
grounds. The nations OF the worth
were pointing the finger of scorn al
England's inability to maintain her aul
thortty In Ireland. He demanded mar
tial law and more troops.
The Rt. Hon. Denis Henry, attorney
general for Ireland, replying to the
criticism Of Colonel Ashley and
other speakers. threw little new light
on the situation. He said the author
tiles in Ireland has been given fullest
authority to call for whatever was
necessary and to adopt measures con-
s1dered desirable and the police and
troops had been given the utmost ini-
tiative, their instructions being to be-
have precisely as on the battlefield
He regarded the situation in Dublin as
worse than in Londonderry, and in this
connection he expressed approval of
the suggestion made In the course of
debate to invite the assistance of the
loyal men of all parties to help in
keeping order.
Lord Robert Cecil voiced his disap-
pointment at the attorney generals re-
marks. He declared that the govern
ment should adopt either q course of
Cancellation or coercion.
Andrew Bonar Law. the government
spokesman, declared he considered:
there was an adequate military force
In Londonderry to deal with the situa-
ton. This view was also held by the
chief secretary for Ireland. he said.

MEASURE IS NOW Law
President Affixes His Signature
to Waterpower Bill.
Legislation Had Been Ten Years In
The Making-Seven Other Bills
Signed BY Wilson,

Washington-The waterpower devel-
opment bill, 10 years in the making,
finally has become law.
Announcement that President Will
son had signed the measure prior to
June IL. was made at the White House.
At the same time it was announced,
he had failed to sign the joint resolu-
ton, repeating most Of the wartime
laws and the Underwood resolution,
providing for negotiations with Can
ada relative to tho embargo on the
shipment of wood pulp to the United
States.
Another bill which failed to receive
the Presidents approval would have
authorized the War department to
tarnsfer motor equipment to the De-
partment Of Agriculture for road con-
structfon and other work.
Besides tho waterpower measure,
the President signed seven bills,
passed in the closing days of the re-
cent session of Congress. They in
cluded an act authorizing the enlist
ment in the naval and army service of
nOn-Engl1sh speaking aliens, an act
paying for set of false teeth, and five
bridge bills.
No explanation of the delay in an
nounctng the Presidents approval of
the waterpower measure was made.
The Presidents action was made
known in the following statement:
1.-THE President having been advised
by the attorney general in a formal
opinion that tho adjournment Of Con.
gress does not deprive him Of the 10
days allowed by the Constitution for
the consideration Of measure, but
only, in case Of disapproval, of the op-
portunity to return the measure with
his reasons to the house in which it
originated. has signed bills enumerated
here, each within the 10 days period,
of course. The bills not signed failed
to become law under the usual prac,
tice."
