cessions. Lloyd George
Declares.

London. Dec. 29.-Premier Lloyd
George issued the following yesterday:
mo British statesman could go
further than we have gone; no Brit
ish statement could consider any pro-
posal involving Ireland being out OF
the Empire
The treaty places Ireland on an
equality with the other States Of the
Empire and gives ireland the same
claim to membership in the League Of
Nations and every right that Canada
has in law. fact and constitutional
practice. and not merely rejection,
but alteration even Of the treaty
would render it null and void. This
would indeed be depIorable in the in
terests Of both countries.
The British Government have gone
70 their utmost limit in the treaty
and to reopen the discussion, which
was closed only after the most ex-
haustive consideration of every point
would be n fruitless proceeding and
Is impossible.
"A committee consisting of British
Ministers, presided over by the Colo
NAL Secretary, has been set up "a
deal with the evacuation Of the Brit
ish forces, the settling of amnesty
and the making of all necessary ar
rangements on the British side and
transferring full executive response
bility 10 an Irish Provisional Govern
ment. The work Of this committee
which had been in continuous session
up to Christmas, and had proposed
to sit through the Christmas holidays
Is now unayoidably held up. pending
approval OF the treaty; but on its ap-
proval the work will be carried
through with the utmost despatch.
1T is the intention of the British
Government to hand over without de.
lay their responsibilities to a provi
sional Government. which VIII func
ton during the period Of transition
required fer setting up the Irish Ere,
State Ministry"
It has been learned, according (,
the Central News Agency, that at ;

leaders, representing both supporter
and opponents Of the treaty. a com
promise was reached which win in
