possible then to make that inter
course more advantageous or more
satisfactory after separation than be-
fore. Suppose you 60 to

when after much loss on both sides
and no gain for either you cease
fighting. the identical old questions
upon you"
do not think it can reasonably be
cQntended that the relations between
Great Britain and Ireland are in any
different case.
No Settlement Without
Recognition of Sovereign
thought had made it clear, both
my two subsequent communications,
that we can discuss no settlement
which involves a refusal on the part
of Ireland to accept our invitation to
a free, equal and loyal partnership
in the British commonwealth under
one sovereign.
am reluctant to precipitate this
issue, but just point out that a pro-
longation of the present state of af-
fairs is dangerous. Action is being
taken in various directions which, if
continued, would prejudice the truce
and must ultimately lead to it's termi-
nation. This would indeed be de-
plorable
While therefore prepared to make
every allowance as to time which
will advance the cause Of peace, we
cannot prolong a mere exchange of
notes. 1t is essential that some def
mite and immediate progress should
be made toward a basis upon which
further negotiations can usefully
proceed. Your letters seems to US,
unfortunately, to show no such prog
ress.
In this and my previous letters I
have set forth the considerations
which must govern the attitude Of
his majesty's government in any ne
gotiations which they undertake. If
you are prepared to examine how far
these considerations can be reconciled
with the aspirations you represent
/ shall be happy to meet you and
your colleagues.

U. S. Delegate Will
Attend Russian Aid
Meeting in arts
Hoover Approves Sending of
Brown; Opposes Interna-
tional Relief Pool; Wants
America HandleOwnWork

WASHINGTON, Aug 26.-The Rus
sian relief situation developed a new
problem to-day with the calling of an
international conference on the subject
to meet in Paris, presumably with
view to coordinating relief measures.
In response to urgent requests from
abroad, the State Department has des-
ignated Walter l.. Brown, who nego-
tiated the relief agreement at Riga, to
attend the conference and make
complete survey of European opinion
as it develops there. Whether he will
be empowered to participate in the pro-
ceedings has not been revealed, but it
was learned that he is undertaking the
mission with the approval of Secretary
Hoover. who, as head of the relief
movement, has insistently opposed pro-
posals to make an international pool
of all Russian relief facilities.
At the State Department Informal
ton was refused tonight as to the
purposes or scope of the conference
or the details of it's organization. 1t
is assumed, however, that the invita-
tons were issued by France and that
all of the European nations interested
in the Russian tangle will be repre-
scented. There has been no indication
that the meeting will delay American
relief work
Since the negotiations over the send
ing of supplies into Russia began the
United States has insisted that what
ever relief work is undertaken by this
l.
American control. 1t is said that Sec
rotary Hoover and his advisers still
hold to that view, but it is pointed
out that this government scarcely
could refuse to confer on the subj ect
when urged to do so by the European
powers.
ERICA, Aug. 26.-The Rosta Agency,
official Bolshevik news disse minator in
the Baltic, announces that 100000
bushels of seed grain. or approximately
Volga region, has already been col
lected in Russia and that large
amount is due at Reval from abroad
in few days
The "Pravda," of Moscow, in its
comment is slightly more optimistic
than it has been recently. This is said
to be due to the successful outcome of
the national tax.
LONDON. Aug. 26-Approximately
40 per cent of the people residing in
tho department Of Kazan, Russia,
have subsisted on flood substitutes"
since May, says the Moscow CORE
spondent Of "Thc Daily Herald" who
quotes from the report Of a special
delegation which conducted an in
quiry there. The delegation was I'M
able to find that anybody actually died
of starvation, but reports that many
deaths were caused by the eating of
unnatural foods"

Drys, Sobered by Fight
On Beer Bill, Get Timid
Volstead Hints Followers Are
Not Anxious to Press More
Prohibition Measures


WASHINGTON, Aug. Chairman
Volstead of the House judiciary Com
mittee. said to-day he had not decided
whether he would press any more pro-
hibition legislation when Congress re-
convenes next month. He indicated,
however, that the drys were not
anxious, in view of the bitter opposi-
ton which the Whilst Campbell anti
beer bill encountered in the Senate
last week, to propose any new meas
ures. Mr.. Volstead expressed the
opinion that the antibeer legislation
would go through soon after the recess.
Senator Stanley, author of the Stan
ley anne ndment to the Willis Campbell
bill, which was superseded by the con-
ference compromise, to-day received a
letter from John D. Carroll, of Ken
lucky, former Chief Justice, indorsing
the Senator'S efforts to prevent any
kind of a search without search war
rant, and pointing out that there was a
growing tendency to put aside the Con-
stitution on such police matters.

WASHINGTON, Aug 26.-President

Manuel L. Quezon, president of the
Philippine Senate, said that the United
States would take no backward steps
in it's policies toward the islands, &C
cording to a statement given out by

Mr.. Quezon added, that he could not

people of the Philippines earnestly

General Nicholson Succeeds
Burdett-Coutts in Commons


LONDON. Aug. 26.-The Bye election
for Parliament in the Abbey division
of Westminster for a successor to the
late William L. Ashmead Bartlett Bur
dett- Courts resulted in the election Of
General John S. Nicholson, who re-
ceived 6,204 votes, while Colonel r. V.
Applin received 1870 and Arnold Lup-
ton 36S.
The election was largely fought on
the issue of "anti-waste," or economy
in the administration of the govern
ment departments. General Nicholson,
the successful candidate, is an indie
pendent Constitutional Conservative.
He favored economies, but Colonel APP
pin and Mr.. Lupton. the latter an in
dependent Liberal "anti-waste" candi-
dnte, advocated far more drastic re-
trcnchments in state expenditure.

whose prosecution Of Major John E.
Hunt, in connection with the escape
of Grover Cleveland Bergdoll, draft
evader, recently was criticized by a
majority report of Congres sional in

The letter. written from General Bull

declared the writer had especially
noted the zeal and interest for the

read the letter he had received on Au-
gust "a from Lloyd George. and there
was some unenthusiastic applause from
the Dali. but the atmosphere seemed
too serious for demonstration.
In authoritative circles here it is
pointed out that if Sim Fem rejects
tAs attitude set forth by Lloyd Georges
letter tonight, civil war between forth
and south Ireland might easily be the
sequel. 1t is suggested that De Valera
has repeatedly avoided the fundamental
issue-the necessity of some sort of an
agreement between Ulster and Sim
Fein-and until he makes an effort in
this direction the peace negotiations
VIII continue to be a failure. The rad
icsl differences in the points of view
in north and south Ireland are sticking
out at every step. There is no belief
here that Lloyd George will abandon
his stand, and the jockeying for posi-
ton now must be left to De Valera.
He alone holds the key to peace.

Enduring Peace Impossible
That Ignores Limitations

There is no political principle,
however clear, that can be applied
without regard to limitations i'm
posed by physical and historical
facts Those limitations are as nee
essary as the very principle itself to
the structure of every free nation.
To deny them would involve the dis
solution of all democratic states. 1t
was on these elementary grounds that
we called attention to the governing
force of the geographical propinquity
of these two islands and of their long
and historic association, despite the
great difference of character of the
races.
We do not believe a permanent
reconciliation between Great Britain
and Ireland can ever be attained
without recognition of their physi-
cal and historical interdependence,
which makes complete political and
economic separation impracticable
for both.
I cannot better express the Brit
ish standpoint in this respect than
in the words used Of the Northern
and Southern states by Abraham Lin
coin in his first inaugural address.
They were spoken by him on the
brink of the American Civil War,
which he was striving to avert:
physically speaking" he said, 1--WE
cannot separate. We cannot remove
our respective sections from each
other now and build an impossible

poor laws, tithes, tenures. grand
juries and franchises.
The British government, Lloyd
George continues, offered Ireland all
that O'Connell and Thomas Davis
asked, and more. We are met only
by an unqualified demand that we
should recognize Ireland as a for
eign power. 1t is playing with
phrases to suggest that the principle
of government by consent of the gov
erncd compels recognition Of that de-
mand on our part, or that in repu-
dating it we are straining geograph-
ical and historical considerations to
justify claim to ascendancy over the
Irish race.
