DUBLIN, Dec. 14.-By The Associ.
ated Pressl-The Dali Eireann met
in public session today for considera-
ton of the Angio-Irish agreement. but

ference. went into secret session with
the announcement hat the public sit
ting would be resumed tomorrow.
President De Valera who opened the
proceedings. explained tho circum-
stances under which the plenipotcfs
tiaries OF the Dali. who met the Brit
ish Representatives for the negotiia-
tons in London. had been appointed.
on October 7. he said. the plenipoten-
tiaries had received instructions the
most important of which was that tho
complete text OF the treaty should be
submitted to Dublin and reply await
ed. That. he said. had not been done.
II was always understood also. he de-
clared, that ratification by the Dali
was essential.
He invited a question in regard to
the conduct OF the negotiations. He
said the question must be considered
on Its merits.
heVleWlng the circumstances lead
ing up to the appointment Of h pleni-
potentiarics. Mr.. Dc Valera said he
had made 1t clear ut the meeting Of
the Dali that the pienipotentiarien
should have full plenary powers. but
that whatever arrangement was
reached would De submitted to the Dali
Tor ratification. The cabinet. he de-
clared. would not have sem any five
men to negotiate a treaty which would
lind the nation without some larger
body representing the nation having

Viewing It.

But we need buy only what me need,

selves to collect, it is better not to

justified by the previous history Of
mankind.
Senator Penrose has been a pro-
tectionist all his life. We trust that
the report is exaggerated which pic
lures him as declaring that in veiw
of the debt situation protection must
be of a different sort than formerly,
greatly modified.
We do not believe it can be true
that industries which have been nur-
tured into might and power under
protective powers should now pro-
pose to sound the death knell Of
American agriculture for the sup
nositious advantage to arise from
cheap food FOR labor. That would be
4 short sighted. ruinous policy that
it is inconceivable intelligent men
should endorse.
We do not advocate a tariff for
4 tariffs sete No sane man wants
to erect barriers for the mere sake
Of erecting them. We build our cita-
dels where our treasures are.
The greatest treasure any people
can have, their supreme asset, is a
strong and sturdy farming element.
a self-contained food suppl. With
that a nation is invincible and its
institutions inviolate.
We stand, as we have said, at the
gateways Of high decision. We are
going to decide now, for all times,
where to follow the ruinous and dis
astrous, the death-eertain, policies
which Rome and England adopted

in China what Il can be produced for
in the United States and our gov
ornment permits the Chinese food to
be brought in to the destruction Of
the American industry. There is ma
tional ruin, not national prosperity,
in such situation.
What advantage can there be in
arousing antagonism between city
and farmf What hope can there be
in adopting policies that coddle the
worker in the city to the utter de-
struction Of the worker in the coun-
tryf It is argued that American
machine methods Of cultivation give
US an advantage in production that
overcomes the difference in farm
wage costs. But American agricul-
tural machinery is sold throughout
the world now. And in cotton there
is no such thing as improved ma
chinery. The plant is cultivated and
picked here as elsewhere. II is the
one crop on all the earth that must
be coaxed by human fingers to yield
its fruit.
Free raw food is a doctrine Of
ruin. American agriculture has
made possible the great cities of the
country. They constitute market
that Of right belongs to native ag-
riculture. 1t is a market native ag-
riculture must have. The resultant
of known forces is also known. If
the American farm must, on the one
side, compete with the city factory
and its high wages for labor, and
must, on the other side, compete in
world markets with the COMPETE
tive products of pauper-labor coun-
tries, there is no guesswork as to
what the ultimate result will be.
Bankruptcy, and nothing else.
1t is argued that Europe cannot
pay unless she sells. Must we buy
those things of which we have
surplus of our own? The thought is
monstrous. Yes, we can buy of her.

from the mistakes Of the great en-
pires Of the past and present and
puild our future on the sure ground
Of protection Of our food supply as
the most essential Of all our belong
ings. To follow the old program
would be easy craftsmanship - to
evolve the new and strong program
will require thought and brain ex-
ertion. But all the nice distinctions
and scientific analysis can be made
simple enough once il is established
for all time as definite, certain and
fixed national policy that agricul-
ture is to be protected; that when
foreign goods come in here at prices
which spell ruin to feasible similar
production in this country, then the
foreign product must pay duty
sufficient to destroy the favorable
dfiferential il enjoys over the
American industry.
Let us not deceive ourselves or be
deceived. There are two or three
great lessons that history teaches
decisively. One Of them is that the
nation which neglects to protect and
its food supply is doomed.
