The attitude of the British
government, as disclosed
during the conversations Of
Premiers BRAND and Lloyd

stand firmly by the decisions
of the agreement arrived at
in Paris in February and 'e-
quire Germany to fulfill
them. Failure by Germany
to do so must compel the
allies to apply further pres

sion were of a perfunctory nature,
announcements of candidacy for

olution introduced early In the
week calling upon members of the
ment of the Volstead prohibition
act, proved interesting topics.
The prohibition resolution called
attention to the fact that the D. A.

stitution and as the eighteenth
amendment was a part of the con-
stitution the organization should
give 1t strong support. When the
committee in submitting its final
report failed to refer in any way
to the resolutions there was con-
siderable comment from support
ers of the dry move.

formally announced as candidates

ELECTIONS IN ERIN
TO BE KEENLY FOUGHT
fBy The Associated Press. ,

Dublin, April 23.-All the cleo
tons for the northern Ireland par
Lament will be keenly fought, the
nationalists and Sim Feiners hay
ing agreed upon mutual candida
cies, and the full strength of the
nationalist Catholic vote will be
polled. Belief is expressed here
that the nationalists will secure
twenty out of the fifty-two seats
in the northern Irish parliament,
but this party's candidates have
pledged themselves to refuse to at
tend meetings of the body, which
will, nevertheless, establish itself
and appoint judges and officials.
1t seems certain the failure of
southern Ireland to provide men
for the election will compel the
lord lieutenant to nominate its
members.

developments marked today the
search for the perpetrators Of the
Wall street bomb explosion, last
September.
In Scranton, Pa, Tito Ligi was
positively identified as man seen
talking to the driver of the wagon
shortly before the tragedy, by
Thomas j. Smitb of Brooklyn.
employed in the legal department
of an insurance company in Man
haitian.
The other incident that caused
unusual police activity was the
suicide of Adolph La Sar, 81 years
old, in his furnished room in
Brooklyn. In an incoherent diary
mentioning half a dozen names of
men in New York and Chicago. was
written:
They furnished the wagon load
of TINT with which blew up Wall
street."
Close examination of the mans
effects and inquiry into his habits
while in the Brooklyn house, con-
vinced the police tonight that the
suicide was mentally deranged and
him with the crime.
Three wills leaving his clothing
and few personal effects to per-
sons who could not be located,
were among the papers. In anoth-
er note to his landlady, he said he
was leaving for a oetter world.

General Edwards. who CONT
manded the Twenty-sixth New
England division overseas until re-
lieved by General Pershing and re-
turned home, was the only nomi-
nee on the list under fire. The
committee vote on his name today
was reported to have been IL to 3,
with three democrats opposing and
three others voting TOR his con-
firmation. Those said to have op-
posed General Edwards included
Senators Hitchcock Of Nebraska
and McKellar of Tennessee. Sem
ators Robinson of Arkansas and
Myers on Montana, democrats,
were reported to have Joined the
republican committee members In
supporting him. Senators Shep-
pard of Texas and Fletcher of
Florida, the other democrats on
the committee, declined to indicate
their action.
Foes TO Continue on Floor.
Democratic opponents of Gen
eral Edwards. whose name headed
the list of nominees for major
general, intimated they would
carry their fight to the senate
floor. No fillbuster. 1t was said,
would be waged. but record vote
at least, 1t was declared. would be
demanded. Republicans predicted
that the entire list of general Of
ficers would be ratified promptly
by the senate, thereby paving the
way for n dozen more promotions
to the rank of brigadier, many
other promotions down through
the whole service and for selection
of a chief of staff
Harbord May Succeed March.
Members of the senate commit
too expressed the belief that Gem
eral Edwards would not be chosen
chief of staff after today's meet
ing at which Secretary Weeks was
called in again today for further
discussion of General Edwards
record. Major General Harbord,
according to opinion of prominent
republican senators, will be select
ed chief of staff to succeed Maj.
Gen. Peyton G, March.
Asked as to the failure to In
clude Colonels George V. II. Nose
ley and Hugh Drum in the list for
promotion to the rank of brigadier,
Secretary Weeks was said to have
told the committee that their age
was the entire compelling reason.
Neither have had barely more than
twenty-five years service, the min
imum limit fixed In the recent
army reorganization law for pro-
motion to brigadier. Other older
officers of much longer service
might be barred from ever attain
ing the rank of brigadier, Secre-
tary Weeks was said to have de-
clared, If Colonels Moseley and
Drum were promoted Immediately.
Their promotion at an early date
In any event Is assured, Secretary
Weeks Is understood to have de-
clared.

ENGLAND STANDS BACK
OF FRANCES DEMANDS

Lympne, Eng, April 23 (by the
Associated Press. Ut Is Great
Brtain's intention to abide by the
provisions of the agreement ar
rived at in Paris last January with
regard to what steps should be
taken to coerce Germany into meet
ing her reparations debt; she agrees
that failure by Germany to meet
her obligations in this respect
should be met with further pres
sure.
This became known in the course
of today's meeting between Pre-
miers BRAND and LloydGeorge,
who came here to confer on the sit
uation arising from Germany's
stand on the reparations questions
and what Is to be done If she con-
tinues her recalcitrant attitude.
M. BRAND. at his own request,
explained to the British permier at
conference which occupied the
best part of this afternoon and
evening, the French proposals for
setting up an an economic admin
istration In part of Westphalia, in
cluding the Ruhr coal basin, should
the Germans fail to pay the repara-
tions due May I The proceeds OF
this administration, such as taxa =
ton on coal exports and excess
profits duties levied on German in
dustrial establishments would, un-
der the French plan. be placed in
a pool out of which the reparations
would be paid the allies.
Although Mr.. Lloyd George
doubtless was aware of the general
character of the French plans from
the communication exchanged be-
tween the British and French for
eign offices, M, BRAND expressed
the wish to explain personally some
of the important features affecting
the general policy of the allies, in
order to attain complete unity OF
purpose,
Today's conversations, therefore
began with rather extended expo
sition of the French scheme by M
BRAND and Philippe Berthelot. OF
the French foreign office, with Mr.
Lloyd George interrogating them.
The conversations were held in
the Black and Gold room of the
residence of Sir Phillip Sassoon
There was no table in front of the
conferees, who lounged in arm
chairs. Those present, in addition
TO the principals, were: NJ. Kam-
merer. the official reporter of many
French state secrets; Sir Maurice
Hankey. secretary to the COMMITTEES
on imperial defense: Sir Phillip
Kerr, Robert G.. Vansittart and NJ
Sylvester, the latter four assisting
Mr.. Lloyd George.
During the afternoon word
reached Lympne from Berlin that
the German cabinet was discussing
fresh proposals, which it was re.
ported might reach here before the
conference breaks up Monday and
NJ BRAND returns to Paris. M
Jaspar. the Belgian foreign min
lister, will visit London Tuesday to
discuss the reparations matter with
