leave the United Kingdom against the
wishes Of her people she desires to

policy Of the mother country and re-

Two Courses Outlined.
Concluding the correspondence, Sir
James wrote November 20, naming
the 23d of that month for their in
terview. Lloyd George, December S,
sent d letter to the Ulster premier, in
signed by the British and Sinn Fein
negotiators and declaring: There are
two alternatives between which the
government Of northern Ireland are
invited to choose. Under the first. re-
tanning all her existing powers. Ulster
will enter the Irish Free State with
such additional guarantees as may be
arranged in conference: Under the
second alternative she will still retain
her present powers, but in respect to
all other matters not already dele
gated to her will share the rights and
obligations of Gerat Britain. In the
latter case, however, we should feel
unable to defend the existing boun-
dairy, which must be subject to re-
vision on the one side and the other
by boundary commission under the
terms of the instrument"

to Lloyd George, saying: I'm order to
maintain the sequence of events it is
Of the utmost Importance that my let

The Ulster premier's letter of that
date announces to Mr.. Lloyd George
that his proposals for an Irish settle
ment have been exhaustively exam
ined by Sir James and his cabinet.

abated desire to retain British citi-

fees of Ulster, made in agreeing to

Sir James Craig replied on November
Il:
"You express regret that my coll
leagues and I have found 1t impossible
to meet you in formal conference SO long
as your proposal that we siould agree
to the establishment of an all-Ireland
parliament was open to discussion. To
enter conference under such condition
would, in our view, ~be dishonest, since
We know that in no circumstances would
Ulster accept such position. involving
In your letter of the 10th inst. you

no mention Of the course suggested in
our reply. We urge that IL you resolve

land from the rest of the United King

between northern and southern Ireland
should be maintained in dealing with re-
served services as has been pursued
with regard to services already trans
ferred. You now mention various objec-
tiOns to our proposal and suggest that
Ulster would be led to economic ruin If
she separated from southern ireland.
you apparently overlook the fact
that your proposal to break the fiscal
unity of the United Kingdom would
involve the fiscal separation of Ulster
from Great Britain, with which 80 per
cent of her trade is directly or indi-
rectly conducted. Can it be doubted
that more harmonious trade relations
would result between Great Britain
and Ulster by the control of these
matters being in our hands, rather
than in the hands of an all-Irish par
iiament dominated by the Sim Fein.

has enforced a trade boycott against

Currency Proposal Feared.
"As to the question of currency. we
view with grave concern your pro-
posal to establish separate Irish
currency. We are confident that COM
mercial and banking interests will re-
fuse to indorse such a proposal, once
they realize its implication.
I'VE concur with the veiw that xthe
creation of new frontiers would tend
to harden into permanence. Why,
then, seek to establish such a from
tier between Great Britain and Ire
land? If, however, you are deter
mined upon such policy. is it not
better to grant Ulster the status of
a separate dominion and thus insure
a firm, abiding link between northern
