ated Press The Dahl Eireann's
adjournment OF further debate on
the Irish peace treaty until Janu-
ary 8, although coming as Q sur

Christmas over all of the eastern
half of the country except the ex-
treme northern states. West OF
the Mississippi river, where there
is snow, 1t probably will remain,
for reports to the weather bureau
from that territory said no thaw-
ing weather was expected between
now and Christmas.
