BELFAST BELIEF
DE VALERA WON I
ACCEPT PROPOSAL
Terms Fall Short of Sim Fein
Ideals
ULSTER CABINET HOPEFu
Northern Counties Believed tC
Have Received Positive Guar
antees From Lloyd George

Belfast, Ire. July 25.-The belief
appears general in Belfast that
Eamon De Valera, the Irish republi-
can leader, will not accept the terms
OF the British government for settle
ment of the Irish question, which fall
far short OF the Republican ideal
1t may be esumed that the out
standing feature of ths governmental
offer is fiscal control, which implies
dominionism for ireland outside the
six northern counties, and, unless
special provision is made to the con-
trary, 1t is believed likely to prove the
strongest lever for forcing Ulster to
join with the Southern Parliament.
Ulster Cabinet Not Disconnected
The prospects, so far as actions
may be judged, are not disconcerting
to the Northern Cabinet. Sir James
Craig, the Ulster premier, has left
for Scotland with his wife and daugh-
ter to join his sons who now are on
holiday there, and John Miller An
drews, Ulster minister OF labor, who
also is president of Ulster Uniod'
ist labor association, did not attend
the monthly meeting OF that body last
night. Although not officially stated
it is generally believed here that the
Ulster government has received the
most positive guaraptees from the
British prime minister, Mr.. Lloyd
George.
