 Dublin, Dec. 20. tBy Associated rrcSs)-Just before ad5ournruent of the Dai. Eireann for luncheon today after a session at which debate On the Anglo-Irish treaty had been con- tinued, an angry exchange occurred between Ramon De Valera and Arthur Griffith over the question of the Dali holding a brie' session at the after noon meeting to hear statement by the minister of defense
 Griffith asked if the people were to le fooled by mere private nroteed- ings."
 
 unworthy Of Mr. Griffith to suggest that the Dali desired privacy.
 Argument Waves Warm.
 Mr. De Valera said something else had been brought back from Downing street besides the treaty.
 Mir. Griffith demanded to know the meaning of this. amid loud cries of withdraw" addressed to De Valera
 Charles Burgess, minister of defense explained that anybody knowing the business end of a gun" must know the necessity for secrecy in military mat ters. He desired to reply privately to charges that had been made Saturday night.
 When it became clear that the statement Of the minister Of defense would deal only with military affairs Mr. Griffith withdrew his objection to a second meeting and harmony was restored,
 Five more members of the Dali in- Guiding the first woman to he heard Mrs. Kate Buckingham, widow of the ussassinated lord mayor of Limerick -presented their views on the treaty at the morning session. Two of them spoke in favor Of the pact and three against it.
 Woman is Opposed.

FinRn Lynch one Of the secretaries Of the London delegation argued strongly for the treaty He declared the issue before the Dali would he to decide between the treaty and "a compromise which is less than a republic"
 Mir. LyuCh's mention Of a comprom- ise was taken as a reference to Pres ident De Nalera's alternative propos- ais which it was announced today would he placed before the Dali when Mir. De Valera moved rejection of the treaty.
 Secretary Lynch said he supported the treaty on four grounds. It gave an Irish army, it gave evacuation by the British troops, it gave control of finances and. best Of all, gave control over education.
 II was an insult to the men who signed the treaty, declared Lynch, to say they had been intimidated
