Discussions between Mr. Lloyd

oped the subject of future tri -partite
conference among the Irish republicans,
representatives u Ulster and the Brit.
ish government sufficiently for the
prime minister to lay before Sir James
Craig, premier of Ulster, definite prop

Mr.. Lloyd George yesterday after Mr..

it became known later that several
members of the Ulster cabinet had

Dublin, July l6.--Commenting upon
the conference between Eamon De
Valera and Prime Minister Lloyd
George in London, the Irish Bulletin
said to-day
"If peaceful settlement should be
denied, the Irish people viii resume
armed resistance to foreign domina
tion. They possess the will, and by en-
durance the power 10 bring their fight
eventually to a success.
Referring to the observance of the
truce arranged between the Irish repub-
lcans and crown forces in Ireland, the
newspaper said il proves there is in
the nation that discipline and obedience
to authority which is the essence Of
successful self government The sur
prise expressed by English newspapers
that the truce was kept, arises from
the inability to understand the reali-
ties Of the situation which the British
press consistently has displayed.
