LONDON, July s.-Engiish political
writer's in this mornings newspapers
seemed to be the prospect of an agree
ment at Dublin today should be re-
garded more with hope than with
faith In many quarters, indeed. h
situation was viewed as giving little
occasion for optimism.
This view was based largely on the
belief that Eamonn DE Valera. leader
of the Sim Fem adhered unalterably
to his demand for the establishment
of an Irish republic and that the Brit
ish government. as well as Ulster.
took its stand upon dominion rule as
provided in the recently promulgated
Irish act. 1t was stated that Earl
Middleton had taken to the conference
intimation that any settlement
be in harmony with the Irish act
in accordance with which the Bel
parliament was created.
Whether. in the fact of such an

extremely doubtful. there h
more hopeful view was taken. how
it was believed that Mr.. De Val

posal. This, according to informa-
tion received by the Associated Press
from Belfast. might take the form OF
Mr.. De Valera insisting hat the gov
eminent put its cards on the table
before disclosing his own hand.
Another view held in Ulster was
that the Sim Fem could not stand
the financial strain of prolonging h
conflict and. therefore was disposed to
come to terms. In such event, how
ever 1t was contended n serious diff
might arise with the Catholic
church in Ulster which might resist
any partition that would place h
power to legislate upon educational
subjects in the hands of the North
Irish parliament. In view of the
