SENSATIONAL TURN
TAKEN IN STEPS TO
GAIN IRISH PEACE
Continued from First Pase)

Ulster ministry had received no COM
munication from de Valera.
While these reports at first glance
seem irreconcilable, it is pointed out
that possibly both may be correct.
The fact that the Ulster cabinet itself
has not received communication
would not, it is noted. preclude the
possibility of an informal discussion
between the northern and southern
leaders.
Invitation to Craig.
A dispatch to the Evening News
from Belfast today asserts that the
Ulster cabinet at this mornings meet
ing discussed an invitation from the
dali eireann to Sir James Craig. the
Ulster premier. asking him to attend
a conference in Dublin with a view to
that there is no possibility, however,
of another meeting between Sir James
and Mr.. de Valera in Dublin. although
the Ulster premier Is willing to meet
the republican leader with Premier
Lloyd George in London.
Out of these conflicting reports. how
ever, arises the outstanding fact that
the republican parliament is to meet
which is taken to mean undoubtedly
that Mr.. de Valera will give a reply
to Mr.. Lloyd George in the immediate
future.
OulCldl QudTleTS III
of no communications having been
passed between Mr.. de Valera and the
northern cabinet. but it was under
stood from another source that Pre-
mier Lloyd George. after comforting
with Sir James in London this week,
sent a message to Mr.. de Valera,
which might account for the calling
of the dali.
The British cabinet already has
oba ln,Ho{nn rdinp~ tho
lease of members of the dali impris-
oned or in detention camp. and it is
understood that Dublin Castle is free
to release them as it thinks fit. Mem
bers who have been on the run are
understood to have returned to their
homes, in order that they may receive
their summonses.
Leaves for Belfast.
Sir James Craig left London for Bel
fast last night after receiving a memorial
from a large number of members of the
house of lords and of commons to COM
memorate his resignation from the
lower house of parliament to accept the
premiership of Ulster. In thanking the
donors of the memorial Sir James said
nothing to enlighten them regarding
listers attitude.
Whatever side the people of England
or of Ireland take" he said during his
address, 81 absolutely refuse to take
any side except that of Great Britain
and the empire. We who must take
leading parts in these difficult times
would be foolish to say a single word
that might interfere with the realiza-
tion of peace throughout Ireland. We
are all asking for peace in our own
ways, but l believe it to be wise for
everybody, especially the press. to say
nothing in the meantime, because a slip.
even a guess, sometimes creates much
mischief"
Sir James emphasized this advice by
example. and it was impossible to OBJ
tain from him the least confirmation OF
report that he was hastily returning
to Belfast owing to the Sim Fein con-
vention having broached negotiations
with the northern Irish government.

ascertaining if the theaters are prop

tains bacteria of any kind.
DIR. Fowler expressed the opinion
that the tests probably would show
that the air in the motion picture
houses is pure. due to the fact that
many of them keep the doors wide
open in the summer. However. he
