UNDISMAYED BY REPORTS

Ways and Means Committee Gets
Speedy Action In Framing of
Measure; Illinois Man
Denounces Bill
By United Press.

By United Press.
Washington Dec. Undismayed
by reports of a probable presidential
veto and opposition in the senate,
the house by bi-partiean coalition
of western and southern representa-
tives began today the work of jam
ing through the emergency tariff
bill which is designed to give relief
to the agricultural interests of the
country
The new party" as the house
coalition is called, has become so
powerful it has forced the ways and
means committee to frame the tariff
measure in two days. The bill is to
be called up in the house today un
der the special rule.
Although a hard fight is expected,
proponents of the bill declared its
passage by the house WAS certain.
Its fate, however, in the senate, is
regarded somewhat doubtful.
In the first test vote Tuesday ad-
vocates of the special tariff legisla.
ton won signal victory by adopt
ing, 2O6 to 76, a motion to suspend
the business of calendar today, to
bring the bill to a vote before ad-
jorrnment. There will be no oppor-
tunity to include other articles by
amendment.
The bill was denounced in the
house as Especial Legislation" by
Representative Madden, republican,
Illinois, who declared its "un-wis-
dom must be manifest to every
body"

All Lines Converging Toward Set
tlement of Long Strife Between
Ireland and Great Britain
King VIII Sign
NOT ALL DEMANDED BUT
IRISH LEADERS HOPEFUL
Measure Provides for Two Parlia-
ments, with Council of Forty
Evenly Selected as Con-
Meeting Link


By United Press.
London, Dec. 22.--All lines in the
Irish conflict seemed to converge
toward peace today.
The passage of the home rule bill
to which King George is expected to
give the royal consent today marked
the elimination of the long fight
which has ben waged in parliament.
Although the bill as finally passed
is not all that they have demanded,
Irish leaders expressed the hope that
it will bring peace.
The bill which goes to King
George for approval provides for two
parliaments in Ireland, one for the
northern part and the other for the
southern portion. with connecting
link between them in the shape of
council. The council is to be com
posed of forty members who are to
: be selected evenly from the two Irish
parliaments.
Whether Sim Fein will accept the
bill as the best arrangement OBJ
tainable at the present time or will
continue its hostility toward the
British government, holding out for
complete independence, remains to
be seen. However, conservative lead
ers among both British and Irish,
have been working zealously toward
affecting a settlement of the conflict
which has caused so much Ibloodshed
and loss in Ireland and many are
optimistic that the passage of the
home rule bill opens the way for
peace. Labor leaders have also been
exerting strong influence to bring
the conflict to a close.
1t is not believed that extremists
will be satisfied with the provisions
of the bill as passed but all agrees
that the situation is hopeful.
What was regarded as one of the
encouraging signs in the days de-
velopments was the announcement
from government officers that
Eamon de Valera, president of the
Irish republic" would not be ar
rested on his return to Ireland. The
latter is reported to have returned
from America on the liner Aquitania,
arriving at Southampton.
Dispatches from Cork today re-
ported that a raid made on the
post office by robbers was stopped
by the police after one of the rob-
bers was KILLED.
