London. Aug. 2o.-Ihe British
governments peace proposals were
laid before the Dali Eireann, which
rejected them unanimously but is
willing to negotiate on the principle
of government by consent OF the
governed, Eamon De Valera says in
his reply to Mr.. Lloyd George, the
British prime minister.
The letter proposes that Great
Britain and Ireland appoint repre-
sentativcs with plenary powers to
negotiate details on this principle.

we seek war, but ii war be made
Upon us we must defend ourselves,
and we shall do so," says Mr.. De
Valera's letter. I'VE long to end
the conflict between Great Britain
and Ireland" he adds.
Rejection Is Unanimous.
The letter, which bears the date OF
August "a. reads:
THE anticipatory judgment l gave

confirmed. laid the proposals Of
your government before the Dali
Eireann and by unanimous vote it
has rejected them.
From your letter OF August IS, it
was clear that the principle we are
asked to accept was that the
geographical propinquity' of Ireland
to Great Britain imposed the condi-
ton of the subordination of Ireland's
right to Great Britain's strategic in
terests, as it conceived them and
that the very length and persistence
of the efforts made in the past to
compel Ireland's acquiescence in
foreign domination imposed the con-
dition OF acceptance of that domna-
ton now.
Tone in Conciliatory.
"We cannot believe that your gov
ernment intended to commit itself to

structive of international morality
and fatal to the worlds peace. If
small nations right to independence
is forfeit when more powerful
neighbor covets its territory for
military or other advantage it is sup.
posed to confer there is an end to
liberty. No longer can any small
nation claim the right to separate
existence. Holland and Denmark
can be made subservient to Ger
many, Belgium to Germany or to
France, Portugal to Spain.
IF nations that have been forci-

Losses on Auto H..
Insurance Is
CraveProblem
Some Large Companies Have
Discontinued Taking
Risks on Cars in
Cities.

Insurance companies ISSUING poll
cies on motor cars are growing more
conservative in accepting this class
OF business, owing to increasing
losses of cars by thefts and fire dur
ing the last year. Some OF. the large
companies have discontinued insur-
ing automobiles in the cities.
Several large insurance companies
issuing policies on automobiles in
the east have gone so far as 10 de-
cline to insure Ford cars because of
the fluctuations in Ford prices. and
the singular attraction thar Fords
seem tcshaye for automobile thieves,
according to telegraplic information
received here this morning from
New York City. This problem was
discussed at recent meeting of the
Autonlotive. Underwriters confer
ence in New York City, although no
concerted action was taken.
Will Hold Meeting.
Representative of insurance COM
ranies will discuss the automobile in
surance situation at a conference to
be held in New York city next
month. Omaha insurance men will
attend this meeting.
A. J. Love, representing the. Ma
tional Security Fire Insurance COM
pany. emphasized the need of re-
vision of automobile insurance, be-
cause the losses are exceeding the
premiums. HI
"Some OF the larger companies will
not accept this business in%the cities,

No Action Here.
Mr.. Love has not heard Of any To-

that automobile insurance is more OF

west.
