more bodies, those of Albert L. Loft
in, an American mechanic, and Flight
Sergeant A. F. Martin of the British

SIM FEM TAKEN ABACK

Dublin. Aug. 26-(By the Asso-
ciated Press)-The letter of Pre-
mler Lloyd-George to cannon de
valera was received in Dublin late
tonight. Its contents surprised the
Sim Feiners. They had expected
further arguments on the claims of
ireland they had raised, instead of a
repetition of the essential conditions
of the British government made
known to Mr.. De Valera at the con-
terence in Downing street a month
ago.
A meeting of the Dali Eireann
was hurriedly summoned for to-
morrow morning at IL o'clock to
consider the situation.
In Dublin Castle quarters tonight
the last sentences in the premier's
letter are considered as making fur
ther meetings for discussions of the
situation with representatives of the
Sim Feiners, unless they regard the
words of the premier as challenges.
There is reason to believe that the
people do not desire a RESUMPTION OF
the warfare at which the premier
plainly hints as possibility in case
there is delay in ending the contro-
\ersy' 1t is thought the fear ex-
pressed by Mr.. Lloyd George in this

QUICK COMEBACK

London, Aug. 26.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press.)-David Lloyd George,
the British prime minister today sent
a prompt rejoinder to the letter of
canon de Valera, president of the
Irish republic. which rejected the
Irish terms for peace in Ireland.
The note constituted firm reitera
ton off the governments former
standpoint, that Ireland could not be
permitted to withdraw from the en-
pire He said he thought he had
lnaoe II clear in conversations and
previous communications that the
government can discuss no settle
ment which involves a refusal on the
part of Ireland to accept a free. eouaI
and loyal partnership in the British
commonwealth under one sovereign"
Mr.. Lloyd-George in concluding his
note sui held open the door for fur
tner negotiations with Mr.. De Valera
and his colleague if they are prepared
70 examine how far the governments
consideration can be reconciled with
me aspirations you represent" He
declared, however, that the govern
ment could not "prolong a mere ex-
change of notes"
In his communication Mr.. LLOYD
George preserved the same friendly
tone that characterized his former
letters to Mr.. De Valera. Today he
puttrested the governments stand
point by quotations from Irish patri
OTIS and Abraham Lincoln. He warn
ed Mr.. De Valera that a needless pro-
iongation of the negotiations would
serve to play into the hands of the
extremists who he declared were
only anxious to wreck the negotia- =
tons and terminate the truce.
A hopeful aspect of the situation
as 1t is viewed in London political
circles is that neither Mr.. De Valera,
in his latest communication, nor Mr..
Lloyd George has vet closed the door
of the negotiations.
