made, IL strike is called, with preser-
walton of the shopmen's working rules
as n goal led to the decision to with
hold strike call for the present, Mr..
Jewell said. He and other union speak
ers counselled the men to wait until the
entire wage and rules situation was
before them, rather than rush into Il
strike which, Mr.. Jewell declared, the
railroads desired.
1--WE can make real fight on the
rules proposition when we might not
have the full support of other branches
OF railway employees on wage fight

the time Is opportune. You men who
have been on strike before don't want
to rush blindly into this thing. But IL
the labor board releases all remaining

We will have the whole matter before

President Eamonn de VAL

Dublin-President Eamonn de VAL
era summoned the Sim Fein cabinet
Friday to consider the situation aris-
ing out of Lloyd Georges action in
cancellng the proposed Inverness con-
ference.
Lloyd Georges telegram came like a
bombshell to the Irish people. 1t shat
tered the optimistic outlook that had
been steadily maintained throughout
the country.
1t was believed likely when the Sim
Fein acbinet met Friday that II might
recommend plebisclte.
This would mean long delay aud
would give the Irish leaders respite
from the predicament in which it was
admitted they found themselves, faced
by the important choice between wlth.
drawing from their position of bring
ing on war.
The Irish press Friday insisted thlt
the masses of both Britain and Ireland
demand peace and reiterated that the
belief that mutual statcsmanship would
avert war. Every effort was made to
keep up the spirits of an Irish people
bewildered by the sudden turn of
events.
Many preparations for war were in
evidence in different parts of Ireland
Friday, according to reports reaching
dublin.
While the Dali cabinet ut It's meet
ing Friday was to decide upon the next
step towards peace or war, II was rec
ognized here that crisis had not ac-
tually arisen. Lloyd Georges tele-
gram, while It fatty refused to treat
with the Irish plenipotentlaries in the
manner they wished, did not close the
loor. DE Valera and his colleagues
had only to find some fresh wording
If their position which would prove
acceptable and II was believed the con-
ference could yet be held without fur
ther difficulties.

seeking some Justification said: I'D
like to ask If there Is any man present

were present but no one made reply.

Latest Reply is conoiliatory
London--Premier Lloyd George had
before him Tuesday ut Goirloch, Scot
land, the Sim Fein suggestion that
representatives Of the British cabinet
meet SIM Fem delegates In confer
ence untrammeld by conditions. The
latest note between the prime minister
and canon de Valera sent Monday
by the Irish leader to Lloyd George,
did not. however, possibly by impllca-
ton. withdraw the offending paragraph
of the Sim Fen note of September II,
In which the sovereignty of the Irish
state was asserted, and which led
Lloyd George to cancel his invitation to
a conference.
AS viewed here, the latest Irish note
nps conciliatory in character and 1t
emed to place upon the prime minis
cr the choice of holding free confer
cree. or insisting that southern Ireland
formally express its allegiance to the
