by Tamon dc valera's statement OF last
night in opposition to the terms OF tho
Irish agreement cannot easily be exag-
gerated. Although his sentiments were
generally known il was not believed he
would openly differ at the last moment
with the decisions of the Sim Fein 8
accredited plenipotentiaries
In political quarters here the general
feeling today seemed to be that the Dali
Eirreann at It's meeting next Wednes-
day would support Arthur Griitith ana
Michael Collins, who stood by their
signatures Of the agreement against
all the arguments Of the opposition, ana
it is stated that If plcnipotentiarie9
were again needed In London the same
men would go again.
The Freeman's Journal commenting
this morning on the split in the DalI
Eireann Cabinet, says:
"Thn men who represented Ireland in
the conference demand, and we cordi-
ally support their demand. that the
Irish people who desired and trusted In
the appointment of these gentlemen as
the sp0kc4nlen Of the nation, should now
support them to tha fullest extent.
"In connection with this develop
mcnt. -" says the Irish Independent. "thc
Il last the Dali EirGann appointed hve
penipotcntiaries TO represent Ireland
nt a conference with representatives OF
the British Government 70 discuss the
Anglo Irish problem and, II possible,
arrive at settlement.
with skill and ability these pleni-
potentiarics discharged the Onerus mis-
sion intrustcd to them. They represented
the Dali Eireann and the Irish nation
and in tho exercise of their power they
signed a treaty of peace.
"we submit that in the circumstance
the nation is in honor bound to uphold
their action. If the position were re.
vcrscd and if the head Of the British

hesitatingly condemn their attitude.
