LONDON, Sept. 30.-Eamon de
Valera, acting for Sim Fem, to.
day accepted Premier Lloyd Georges
invitation to a peace conference in
London October H.
In the shortest of the long series of
notes that have been exchanged be-
tween London and Dublin since the
Premier's six peace proposals were
made last June The republican lead
er agreed that conference, not cor
respondence, is the most practical
and hopeful way to an agreement
The text of De Valeras acceptance
follows:
I'VE received your letter Of invita-
ton to- a conference in London. Oc-
tober H. with view of ascertaining
how the association of Ireland with
the community of nations known as
the British Empire may best le
reconciled with Irish national asp!-
rations
Our respective positions have
been stated and understood. and we
agree that conference. nos core
spondence, is the most practical and
hopeful way to an UNDERSTANDING
Owe accept the invitation Our
delegates will meet you in london oa
the date mentioned and explure every
possibility of settlement by per-
sonal discussion"
Reply Seen as Long Step to Peace
De Valera's acceptance was more un-
reserved than had been expected IN
London. His repetition Of Lioya
Georges suggestion that the confer
ence be held to ascertain "how ie
association of Ireland with tho COM
munity Of nations known as the Rrt-
Irish national aspirations" was re
garded as a long step toward peace
De Valera refrained from argument
in his communication. To his plain &C
ceptance of the Premier's offer the Sim
Fein leader adds in a tone Of cordial
ity that the Sim Feln delegates WI
meet the government in London on thc
date mentioned and "explore every pos
sible settlement by personal discus
sion
This concillatory phrase terminates
the correspondence The Favorable az
mosphere for peace negotiations seems
to be restored. and high hopes arc
entertained on both sides 81 the irisn

ness prospects inclined strongly to the constructive. The steel trade was almost the only important industry in which the deadlock remained un- broken. The adverse quarterly state ment of the Republic Iron and Steel company heightened interest in the report of the United States Steel cor poration, which will issue next Tues day.
 Various theories were advanced to explain the increased weakness of foreign exchange. Tn the final andy sis these dealt mainly with England's dwindling trade balance and further buying of American bills by German interests.
 Bankers conversant with European affairs intimate that Germany's fi- nancial rehabilitation will figure inn portantly here in the remaining months of the year. Negotiations now in progress with British finan- ciers as probable participants, in volve purchases for German account of grains, cotton and copper. also other raw materials. estimated at be- tween seventy five and one hundred million dollars.

WEEKLY FINANCIAL

NEW YORK, July 23.-Regardless of such encouraging factors as low CT discount rates, a stronger country wide bank position and a substantial increase on investment purchases, the stock market this week sounded the depths of seasonal lethargy.
 Shares of recognized value fluctu- ated within the most contracted range and speculative issues seldom varied more than two or three points, in striking contrast to recent spec tacular performances.
 Trading was confined almost ex- clusively to professionals but that faction was much less aggressive for the short account. Such public in- terest as occasionally was manifested centered mainly in the rails, where early federal financial relief seems probable.

SENATOR SHOOT TO
 GIVE AID IN FIGHT
 FOR COTTON TARIFF

MESA, July 23.-In response to a letter written sometime ago. Secre- tary Dan F. Collett of the Mesa Com mercial club Saturday received a let ter from Senator Reed Smoot of Utah in which he promised his sup port to the fight for a tariff on long staple cotton.
 In addition to Senator Shoot, with whom Secretary Collett is personally acquainted, various other senators and representatives have been writ and every effort is being made To- cally to enlist support in the fight for the tariff.
 Following is Senator Shoots letter: Dan F. Collett.
 Mesa Commercial Club,
 Mesa, AriZ.
 Dear MT. Collett:
 I am just in receipt of your letter of July 10. 1921, calling my attention to the condition confronting the good people of the Salt River valley Ari- zona. particularly those of the Mesa district, brought on them by the un- precedented slump in the price of long staple cotton.
 follow unless some protection is given to the growers of long staple cotton When the bill reaches the senate shall do everything I can to see that a tariff is placed on long staple cot ton. The trouble is that the senators from the cotton states. or at least a great majority of them, will vote against a duty of any kind on cotton I think most of the Republicans will support a tariff on long staple cot ton, but I want you to know that shall do so.
 I wish you every possible success in the future.
 Yours truly. REED SHOOT.
