IRISH UNDECIDED {
ABOUT AGREEMENT
Dali Eireann Holds Several Sessions to
Debate. Question Of Acceptance
or Rejection,
tay The Associated Pressl

DUBLIN, Dec. lathe question of
ratification or rejection of the agree
ment arrived at in London between
the representatives of the British gov
eminent and the plenipotentiaries of
the Dali Eireann, to settle the discord
which for centuries has existed be-
tween Great Britain and Ireland, was
debated today at public meeting of
the Dali and later at two secret ses-
sions. Another secret session is to
be held tomorrow. ,
At the public meeting today cannon
DeVaIera, the president, and Arthur
Griffith, Michael Collins and other
Dali deputies expressed their views as
to whether the Irish delegation to
London has exceeded its powers in
signing the agreement with the Brit
ish cabinet for q settlement of the Irish
problem.
DeValera and the members of the.
delegation Were sharply divided on the
question at issue. DeValera contended
that the treaty should not have been
signed without its having first been
referred to the Dublin parliament;
Delegates Griffith and Collins insisted
that they and their colleagues had the
power invested in them to sign an
agreement, but not the authority to
conclude it. Mr.. Griffith asserted that
the representatives of the Dali Eireann
and Of the British cabinet in this re-
spect We're in identical positions as
each vas obliged to refer the treaty
to their respective legislature for rat
ification.
Both Mr.. Collins and Mr.. Griffith
during the discussion resented a state
nent of President Deyalera that the
delegation to London had not oibeyed

MAJORS PROPOSE TO
REINSTITUTE DRAFT
National and American Leagues Would
Make an Amendment to Base
ball Agreement.

NEW YORK, Dec. 14.-Seeking re-
moval of the "stone wall" they de-
clared minor leagues had placed around
star PLAYERS by asking prohibitive
prices for them. officials Of the Ma
tional and American leagues in their
respective meetings today, proposed an
amendment to the national baseball
agreement that would reinstitute the
draft.
Resolutions to this effect were
adopted by unanimous vote in both
leagues and submitted to basebaIrs
advisory council for consideration to-
morrow during the joint meeting of
the majors. The resolution in the ma
tional was offered by Garry Herman
of the Cincinnati club, as a substitute
for the suggestion of Charles H. Eb-
bets of the Brooklyn club that the ma
jors refuse to purchase players from
any league not subscribing to the
draft
Mr. Ebbets' suggestion, it was said,
did not meet with the approval of
Commissioner lands, who saw in its
adoption creation of a condition of out
lawry in minors and dissension in the
majors.
The advisory council is expected to
settle the matter tomorrow. President
Hickey of the American association
and President Sexton of the Interna-
honal association, governing body of
all minor league baseball are minor
league members of the council Mr..
Sexton is reported to- have said that
Redistribution of the draft would be a
boon to the minors generally Mr..
Hickey has not expressed his attitude
in that regard.
The National league carried out
President Haydler's suggestions for
giving protection to umpires by pro-
viding for the appointment OF ''wgi-
lance cops" to arrest throwers of pop
bottles and authorizing the construc-
ton in several parks of special exits
for 'umpires only"
The New York Yankees announced
they had purchased r. Tecarr, left
handed pitcher, from the Jersey City
club of the International league. The
purchase price was said to be 1000.
Tecarr won 20, games out of 40 last
season.

Il have been called a traitor" ex-
claimed Mr.. Collins at one point. Let
the Irish people decide whether I am
or not"
The speculation OF the day over
the possibility of Il serious rift in the
two factions cent cred in the secret
sessions held after the open meeting.
The first of the secret conferences
lasted from one o'clock in the after
noon until two o'clock. Then, after a
long recess the deputies reassembled
at 4;30 o'clock and the meeting con-
tinued until a late hour this evening
The meeting of the members OF the
parliament behind closed doors, was
confined TO animated discussion OF the
question as to how far the plenipoteu-
tiaries to London were justified by
their instructions in signing a treaty
with England in the early hours Of
Tuesday morning a week ago, without
having resubmitted the treaty to the
president and his cabinet.
Mr.. Griffith, quietly and Mr.. Collins
with some heat, in the public session,
resented any suggestions that they
had failed to carry out their instruc-
tions, or that they had exceeded them
in any degree. 1t took a longer time
than had been anticipated to clear up
the points in dispute, and as Mr., De-
Valera had made plain his dlssatisfac-
ton of the method adopted by the
plenipotentiaries a secret debate was
decided upon.
The opinion among the members of
the Dali tonight on the question of ac-
ceptance or rejection seemed more
evenly divided than had been expected
All apparently were in agreement that
ultimate responsibility would rest with
the country. 1t is considered possible
that the members of the Dali, after
having expressed their individual opin-
ions, will refer final decision of the
question to the electors. among whom
all indications seem TO point there is
a large majority in favor of the treaty.
Except for O. Sim Fem flag draped
with crepe and hung from a telephone
pole, the only evidence of propaganda
against ratification of the treaty out
side University College where the ses-
sfons of the Dali We're held. were
members of the communist party in
Ireland, who endeavored to distribute
pamphlets urging rejection of the
treaty. Members of the Irish repub-
lican army dispersed the committee
and confiscated their literature.

of the reasons why girls leave home.
Another good reason is said to be fur
nished in the splendor that WHITES the
cabaret scene-the Palais Des Arts.
Here where only men Of the finan-
ciaI world, men whose incomes run
into five and six figures annually, can
hope to meet the hill for the evenings
entertainment without the flicker of
an eyelash, are seen disporting in all
their glory. The scene is lavishly in
vested with a beauty that defies de-
scription. The entertainment afforded
the cabaret patrons is so strikingly
unusual. For instance, one of the femi-
nine dance artists drops slowly from
the ceiling enveloped in a silk balloon,
and as it strikes the dance floor she

crowd, and with the music in full
swing she holds the spectators SPELL

 He gave no details as to the man. ner in which he believes the reorgan- ization should be carried out.
