Dublin, Dec. l9.---Thc Dail Eireann
which met shortly before moor today
and began lconHidcration of motions
FOR and against ratification OF the
Anglo Irish treaty. adjourne d at !
o'clock until $3.50 p. m. There was
every indication that the speech max
ing would be through tomorrow
Every seat in the hall was taken when
the speaker, Professor John Mac
Nall, called the meeting TO order.
An interesting feature of tho first
session was the disclosure that
Eamonn Dc Valera. the Republican
president. had submitted TO last week s
private meeting Of the Dali an alter
native proposal to the agreement
signed in London.
He explained he had done this in
an effort 20 secure unanimity in the
Dali.
Adoption OF the treaty was moved
by Arthur Griffith, foreign minister
in the Dali cabinet and signer of the
London agreement.
Commandant Mexican OF County
Longford. one OF the best known Of the
Irish Republican army leaders, second
ed the Griffith motion. saying:
'The Irish people want substance,
not shadows"
Immediately after the meeting began
argument arose as to whether the
document introduced by Eamon De-
Valera. the Republican president. at
the private meeting Of the DAN last
week. should be introduced at the
house session. 1t transpired that the
document in question was an alter
native proposed as a peace agreement
drawn up by De Valera.
Speaker MacNeill said Mr.. De Valera
had requested that the document be
regarded as confidential until he put
forward his own proposal in the pub
lie session. Arthpr Griffith and
Michael Collins protested against a
course which they declared would re-
suit in keeping from the Irish people
what. such an alternative proposal
meant.
After some heated discussion the
speaker said he could not debate on
this point, and Mr.. Griffith then moved
the ratification OF the treaty.

BY Associated Press.

London, Dec. 19.-The year
1926 is destined to shake the
world to its foundation. both
physically and politically. It is
to be a succession of plaques,
famine, floods. ship wrecks,
riotins and revolution. So says
the British Journal OF Astrology,
which has drawn the horoscope
for that year. when the planets
Mars and Mercury win be in
conjunction.
Six years later, the great Ar
mageddon is to take place. 1t
viii be final conflict between
Mohammedanism. allied with
Bolshevisn, against the united
Anglo-Saxon world. 1t viii end
in a universal peace in 1882,
but there will be SO few of us
left and we shall all be SO tired
that peace should happen any
how the horoscope says.
