as a basis for settlement of the Irish
controversy must await action by the
Irish Republican parliament. That

The note from Mr.. Lloyd George,

a factor into the situation which
made it necessary for the parliamen,
to meet and widen the scope Of the
mandate it gave its leaders.

is pointed out. took the oath of al
legiance to "the Irish Republic and
the government Of the Irish Repub-
slic.' and pledged themselves not to
yield voluntary support to any pre-
tended government. authority or pow.

condition precedent. that there could
be no separation of Ireland from the
