CRAIG SETS TIME LIMIT
FOR LLOYD GEORGE
GiUes Him a Week to Send
New Proposals for Peace.

BELFAST, Nov. 20 (Associated Press).
-"By next Tuesday these negotiations
will nave broken down or the Prime
Minister will send me new proposals for
consideration by the Cabinet" declared
Sir James Craig to the Ulster Parlia-
ment to-day with regard to the Irish
peace negotiations.
Sir James said he had told Prime
Minister Lloyd George that the British
Governments proposals to Ulster for the
settlement of the Irish question were
utterly impossible. He said Ulster would
not enter an All-Ireland Parliament un-
der the present conditions, but was will
ing to discuss other means of settlement.
On the subject of the enrolments
ordered and other policing measures
taken in Ulster Sir James said:
owing to tho outrages by the Sim
Fein during the last week arrange
ments have been made by the imperial
authorities for drafting into Ulster ad-
ditlonal recruits. On Saturday the
northern Cabinet gave instructions for
the enrolment of specials. l hope these
steps will be found sufficient, but, nc
matter what the cost, the government OF
northern Ireland is determined to per-
form its primary duty of maintaining
protection OF life and property"
Sir James declared Ulster would
neither be intimidated nor coerced. She
was not blocking the way to a settle
ment, he insisted. The Sim Fein now
had a week to say whether it would
continue to work for settlement or II
the negotiations were to be broken off
and Ulster, he insisted, would not be tc
blame If break should occur.
. Sir James said he was not pressing
now for publication OF the correspon-
dence relative to the recent negotiations
between the Ulsterites and Lloyd George
but that if necessary he would publish
it without permission, mo matter what
the consequences"

NO CORPUS DELICTI

NO BONES SEEN AT FIRST

VERSAILLES, Nov. % (Associated
Press) The backbone of the defence In
the case OF Henri Landru will be the alb
solute absence of proof that any of the
eleven persons the defendant Is alleged
to have murdered are dead and also the
failure Of the police Ito find anything
resembling the remains of a human
body" when they first searched the villa
at Gambais occupied by Landru on April
13, 1919. and that the complete exhibit
of bones and teeth produced by the
prosecution were not discovered until the
second search of the premises on
April 20.
This statement was made to-day by
M. Moro o-Giafferi, chief counsel for the
defendant. as he rose to address the
jurors after Godefroy had finished his
argument for the prosecution. Godefroy
had ended his address with an assur-
ance to the jury that they need not fear
a judicial error. 1--WE must set up the
guillotine when it is necessary. and it is
death that l ask for the assassin of
Gambais." the prosecutor dramatically
concluded.
Landru. stolid and unmoved, listened
to the plea of his defender as he pre-
viously had done under the attack of the
prosecutor-the coolest person in the
courtroom.
'lnnuendo and insinuation make up
the case of the prosecution. without a
bit OF proof having been adduced," de-
clared Moro Giaferri. I'VE have no
revelations to make" he continued,
pointing to the prosecution. SHOW us
our victims. We want no pity, only JUS
tice"
The attorney said he would show that
between April 13 and April 80 human
bones and bones of all kinds were
planted at. the Gambais villa by per-
sons who had reason to desire the con

The lifting of the veil from the Irish
negotiations by Sir James Craig,
Ulster Premier, who told the Northern
Irish Parliament at Belfast to-day
that Ulster refused absolutely to ac-
cept an all Ireland Parliament as de-
manded by Sim Fein, revealed that
practically nothing has been accom-
plished in connection with an agree
ment on the two most vital issues
the Parliament and Sim Fein's al
legiance to the crown.
There still exists in official quarters
a determination to reach a settlement.
and Sir James Craig's announcement
that Ulster was willing to discuss
fresh proposals if submitted before
Tuesday next was grasped at as an
that has reached most critical stage,
being practically a double deadlock.
| While Sir James was speaking before
| the North ireland Parliament members
of the British Cabinet were in consulta-
ton in Downing Street with the Prime
Minister. AS soon as this meeting ended
Mr.. Lloyd George received Arthur Grif-
fifth, Michael Collins and canon j. Dug
gan, Sim Fein representatives In the
Irish peace negotiations. and they con-
| ferred for half an hour on alternative
terms for a settlement. AS a result, it
is understood that Il these new terms
receive the approval of the Dublin rep
resentatives they will be handed to Sir
James Craig before the weeks end.
There is every indication that the week S
grace announced by Sir James Craig
will see q determined effort to secure a
settlement.
In the meantime the possibility Of n
| breaking OF the truce in Ireland Is not
overlooked and officials who are familiar
with Irish temper confess they do not
| expect that it can bc kept much longer
| If the hope of settlement fails to ma
teriallze. Sir James Craig's announce
ment OF the enrolment of more than
1000 constabulary in Ulster is liable to
; be received in the Sim Fein camp as a
| challenge, which may incite renewed
| outbreaks. Leaders on all sides want
to keep the truce, but they feel serious
| doubt.

Revard;ng the Faithful

THE tariffs of the Dingley and the Aid
ric ndays, fat as they were with IA
vors to the few at the many's expense.
will be remembered as lean kline if meas
ure now contemplated by Republican leaders
is adopted. A so-called Emergency" tariff
bill, in which the farmers were made dupes
after blarneying promises of protection, has
already been passed. But the permanent law
remains to be enacted; that is to say, the
richest pasturage remains to be provided
The proposal, as analysed by the Louisville
Courier-J ournal, would amount to this: "The
president would be invested with autocratlc
power to raise the duties whenever it ap-
peared that somebody was not getting full
protection against foreign competitors. And
as the relations between the somebodies who
want to write their own tariff schedules and
the Administrations which enact protective
tar if laws have always been most intimate,
it is not difficult to imagine the rich pick
ings the 3omebodies would have, at the
America consumers expense.
It is not enough that tariff privilege should
be lavish; it ust be flexible too, so that IL
can be stretched, upon briefest notice, to
suit the interests of those who have proved
their Americanism through corpulent contrl-
buttons to the campaign funds of deserS>

it is true, would be rather confusing and I'M

STUDYING THE SUN-By Frederic J. Haskin

cred with ice This has been explained by the
scientists on the ground that the earth shifted
in it's orbit so that it received less heat from
the sun.
The point is that the sun is not tn reliable
thing you imagine it to be. 1t is nothing
but great hot coal, slowly burning itself
out At least it must be burning itself out
and the scientists assume that ultimately 1t
will burn out entirely, leaving us in the dark
and cold, unless it col1ides with some other
body, thus getting a new supply OF fuel. Ihen
it might get too hot and fry us all.
These little contingencies are all few
trillion years in the future, and are nothing
to worry about. But nevertheless, theN sun IS
supremely worth studying right now. Ii
an intelligent being could come here from
another planet, he would probably wonder
that we spent such an enormous amount OF
money inventing guns and gases with which
to get ourselves killed. and so little money
in studying the sun, upon which our lives de-
pend.
The Mysterious Sun Spot
For one thing, there are the sun spots.
These are cloudy places over the sun, cutting
off some of it's light and heat from u.s. which
are believed by scientists to be due to the
collection of gases at certain points. IL
is believed that these sun spots have
marked effect upon the earth in some way.
For example, the aurora boreal1s, which re-
Gently got so much publicity, occurs in con-
nection with sun spots and is believed to be
caused by them. 1t is an electrical phenom-
enon. The recent display of the aurora
charged the air so heavily that telegraphs and
cables were affected, and many believed that
human beings were affected, too. 1t Is quite
possible that the sun spots have good deal
to do with the way you feel on a. given
morning. It may be that when science has
studied the matter adequately, all human
activities will be regulated largely in accord
ance with the condition of the sun spots.
Meantime. the weather bureau states that
it cannot trace any connection between the
sun spots and the weather. 1t admits that
sun spots have something to do with the
aurora and terrestrial magnetism, but says
'the nature of these relations is complex and
more or less unknown.
The last word no doubt sums up the situa-
ton. The sun, by whose light and heat
alone man lives his little moment, is a terri
BILE mystery to him. He does not know what
it may do % him. But meantime he calmly
scrutinizes it and impudently tries to hitch
it I'D and make It work. During his residence
at the Mt Wilson observatory, DR.. Abbott
made a sun-heat cooker. He concentrated
the rays by means of parabolic mirror, ana
so baked meats and bread without the use or
fuel.
Perhaps the scientist on his mountain top,
it cooks his dinner for him, is an outpost in
more senses than one. He is an outpost of
the future when man will understand far
more of the universe in which he lives, and
will control it for his own benefit.

THE HAPPIEST ESTATE
BY DOROTHY DIX

| SIS the ba 5helor or the married man the
| happier?" inquiries correspondent
| I should say that it depends on the type
of man, and the sort of marriage a man
makes. There are chirpy old bachelors, just
as there are grouchy ones There are homes
that are an earthly paradise, just as there
| are hearthstOnes that are perpetual battle
grounds Some men are as fore-ordained to
matrimony as the sparks to fly upwards.
Other men are still undomesticated wild ami
mails, even on their golden wedding day.
There are matches that are made in heaven,
and marriages that are instigated by the
devil and all his cohorts
And the pity of it is that no guardian angel
stands outside of the marriage license bureau
and bids one man enter and receive his crown
| of blessings and warns another man away
| from trouble. You never know whether you
are fitted for the holy estate or not, or wheth-
er you are getting the right Ii, partner or
not, until after it is too late for your knowl-
edge to do you any good.
The man who is wondering whether he will
be happier married or single, is not in love.
| One who is the victim of the tender passion,
| is so completely obsessed by the hallucina-
| ton, that, if he can only induce certain girl
