Dublin, Dec. 9.-The sensation
following the revelation of a split In
the dali eireann cabinet over rati-
fication of the Auglo-Irish treaty
yielded to a more calm attitude to-
night. There seems to be ground
for the belief that Arthur Griffith
who headed the delegation which
signed the agreement in London,
will have a sufficient following In
the sim fein parliament next We'd
nesday to insure ratification of the
agreement by a substantial ma
jority.
The headquarters staff of the
Irish republican army is supposed
to be behind Michael Collins, also
a signor of the agreement, in which
case a majority for ratification
would be certain.
Should a considerable majority
support the motion for ratification
and thus vote against Eamopn de
Valera, it is thought probable that
he will stand aside" and let Mr..
Griffith make the best of the situ-
alton.

urging that n mass meeting be
called to assist in the work of

petition follows:
albuquerque, n. M,
December 9, 1921.
ITO the Directors of the Albu-

1--WE heartily agree with the
proposal in your newspaper ad-

MEMBERS SAY THEY
WELCOME THE SUIT
Believe 1t viii Be the Means
of Settling Many PerpleX-
ing Questions Which Have
Caused WrangIing.

Chicago, Dec. 8, (By the
Associated Press) )-Buffeted
about by the criticism of
both railroad and railway
workers for more than a
year and a half, the United
States railroad labor board
finally was hailed into
federal court today when it
was made defendant in an
Injunction suit brought by
the Pennsylvania Railroad,
which procured a temporary
order from Judge K. M.
Lands restraining the board
from handing down a decis-
ion against the road in a
shopmen's controversy.
Members of the board said they
welcomed the suit" as a means OF
settling many perplexing questions,
which have been the subject OF
many tilts between the transporta-
tion lines, the employees and the
board.
Hearing on a permanent order
will be held before Judge lands to-
morrow The railroads. petition is
based on two allegations: That the
board has jurisdiction only over
cases over which a disagreement
has arisen, and that the board has
exceeded it's powers in prescribing
rules for the selection of employe
representatives in negotiations
with the carriers.
Today's injunction has the effect
of holding up a decision on the
Pennsylvania's citation before the
labor board October 20, when the
road was summoned to show cause
why it should not be declared in
violation of the boards orders.
The controversy arose over the
roads disregard of an order from
the board to hold an election to
name employe representatives for
carrier.
The carriers bill asked an in
junction restraining the labor board
and its individual members. among
other things, from prescribing any
regulation relating to rules, work.
ing conditions or wages without |
having first acquired jurisdiction
thereof as provided in the trans
portation act.
Exncct Rulings Upheld.
The Pennsylvania also asked |
that the board be restrained from |
enforcing all previous decisions in
the case. If granted, tho way to |
notification OF any or all board |
orders by federal court would |
be open, it was said.
Board members today declared
they expected to see their rulings
upheld in court. Shop union off
cials, feeling that the court action
was entirely between the Pennsyl-
vania and the board, said they
would take no part in the suit.
