De VALERA MUST
VARY ATTITUDE
To REACH PEACE.
Says the Secretary of the Ulster
Delegation
IDEAS ARE NOT PRACTICAL
Negotiations are Not Broken Off
But De Valera Refuses to
Recognize Ulster Cabinet

Belfast, July 19.-The return to
Belfast of Sir James Craig, the Ulster
Premier and members of his cabinet
who have been with him in London in
connection with the Irish peace move
must not be taken as a rupture of ne.
gotiations. Colonel Spendler, seere-
tary of the delegation, declared on his
arrival here. He thought that the
delegation would be recalled to Lon.
don next week.
None Of the Cabinet members will
say anything for publication. De
Valera is regarded by the Ulster
Unionists as visionary and the feel.
ing in Unionist circles here is that no
discussions among all the parties con
cerned in the Irish settlement will be
possible until he considerably modi-
fies his position.

London, July 1S.-The Irish nego-

development ate tonight Sir James
Craig, the Ulster premier. on leaving

ment, which appears to forbid any

words have been Interpreted for the
present, he seems to wash his has of
any further participation in the peace
negotiations.
Just before taking the train tonight
with his colleagues for Belfast, Mr..
Craig Said:-
J Il return home well satisfied with
/ the efforts being made towards peace.
Mr.. De Valera has broken his silence
and cleared the ground by his state
ment to the press that he proposes

the right of determination"
The Ulster premier elaborated his
contention that the people of north
ern Ireland in the recent elections
determined their own Parliament
by an overwhelming majority and that
idr, De Valera and his friends admit
ted the right Of such self determination
on the part Of northern Ireland by the
fact that they themselves stood as
candidates for the Northern Parliament
and submitted their policy of mo par

This. in fact was the only issue
placed before the electorate, said Sir
James, and mo partition was re.
jected in any general election.

FIND SLAIN TAXI
DRIVER AT WHEEL
ROBBERY BELIEVED MOTIVE FOR
Staying OF EARL CAREY
OF LANSING.
LOOKING FOR ESCAPED BANDIT
Police Connect Crime With Man
Who Jumped From Train TAX
Ing Him to jackson.

Charlotte, Mich.-Earl Carey. rs
years old, Lansing taxi driver, early
Sunday was found slain in his car,
which, with lights burning, stood in
a lonely road three miles north OF
Charlotte. He had been shot twice,
one bullet entering his head and the
other his neck.
Following the finding of the body,
a statewide search was instituted for
a man, who Saturday night ordered
Carey to drive him from Lansing to
Charlotte, more than 20 miles. The
mans description, which has been
sent broadcast, is: Five feet, seven
inches tall; weighs 160 pounds, dark
complexion, wore a black suit and a
brown hat.
Lansing police officials, who came
here to take hand in the investiga'
ton, deprecate the theory that q
liquor squable may have been behind
the shooting. They believe the muir
der was inspired by robbery and point
to the fact that Garey's pockets were
emptied.
They also lean to the belief the slay'
ing was the work Of bandit who last
week escaped from a train near Ian
sing while being taken to serve a sen
tence at Jackson prison.
Officials of taxi company at Ian
sing declared a man entered their
office at o'clock Saturday night and
inquired about a car to take him to
Charlotte. He wore no overcoat and ap'
peared to be in need of shave, they
said. He was told to wait In the Of
fee, as there were no cars available
at that moment.
After an hour had elapsed, they
said, Carey came and the man was
turned over to him. The taxi officials
are Of the opinion the Staying of
Carey was not intentional, but only
incidental to robbery.
John Holmes, a farmer, who found
Garey's body notified Sheriff Gilley.
He said he first saw the car standing
in the road at midnight Saturday, as
he was on his way home from Char
lotte.
Early Sunday morning Holmes said,
he was impelled by curiosity to go
back and see If the car was there. BY
this time, he AYERS, the position OF
the car had changed and it was stand
ing about half mile north Of where
he had last seen 1t. He said he found
Carey dead, with his arms stretched
around the steering wheel.
