LONDON, aug. 4. While govern
ment circles here profess confidencs
that Irish affairs are progressing to-
ward q settlement, there has been q
tone OF uneasiness and even of anx-
iety. in many reports from Dublin
during the past few days. Thesa
have been accompanied by exhorta-
tion5 for patience being based upon
the ground that the negotiations can
not be hurried and may not be con-
cluded for long time.
Reports Contradictory
Reports which ara contradictory
come from Dublin and Belfast rela-
tive to the steps being taken to settle
the relations of Ulster and southern
Ireland. 1t has been stated, on one
hand, that direct negotiations have
been opened by Sir James Craig, the
premier of Ulster and cannon de VAL
era, the Irish republican leader. It
has been declared with equal certain
ty in other quarters, that no nego-
tiations are in progress, there being
no one at present in Belfast to con-
duct them, owing to the absence Of
the principal ministers on their Va
cations.
A third rumor, that negotiations
arc in progress between Dublin and
Belfast but are being carried on
through an intermediary whose iden-
tity haa- not been indicated, is also
current
Reports relative to the attitude OF
Ulster are similarly contradictory.
One account states there is a COM
pletn deadlock between Dublin and
Belfast, owing to listers absolute re-
fusa1 to take any hand in the gov
ernment's plan for Irish peace, but
this is unconfirmed, and it is else
where stated that Ulster has accept
ed nothing and rejected nothing and
that her final attitude is yet to be as
certained.
| Sir James Craig left London for
Belfast last night after receiving
memorial from a large number Of the
house of lords and of commons to
commemorate his resignation from
the lower house of parliament to ac-
cept the premiership of Ulster. In
thanking the donors of the memorial.
Sir James said nothing to enlighteu
them regarding Ulster'a attitude

must soon make way for new tonnage.
In the case of the United states, ne
asserts. a consider ble number OF the
vessels are not fitted for ordinary
trade and will never be put in proilta-
BILE operation. ~.
From study of the situation. Mr..
Ballard declares that since 1914 there
has been an undcrproduction of Slips
amounting to 2,250,000 tons. rms
figure is based upon the actual increase
as compared with ordinary require
ments under normal world trading ~
ia estimated that the increase in TINS
time would be 100000 tons, against
an actual gain of IL ,679 900 tons.
1t is pointed out also that the aver
age tonnage withdrawn from the mar
ket for condemnation for the previous
ten wears amounted to 156,686 tons a
wear. and that from 1914 to 1919 at
least 934,128 tons should have been
replaced. Actually, he says, only
121,154 tons were discarded, so that
more than 100000 tons is overdue for
condemnation.
While he does not attempt to mini
mize the present depression, Mr.. Bal
lard says in "The Shipbuilding and
Shipping Record" Of London. that
these factors must soon come into
play. In this connection it is renem-
bered that Mr.. Lasker, chairman of
the Shipping Board, said recently that
of the 400 steel cargo ships owned
by the board, about one-third are ships
we'll suited for peace commerce, one
third are fairly good and the remain
der useless.
Explaining the actual production of
ships since 1914, Mr.. Ballard gives the

Hurley Urges Full Use
Of Oil-Burning Vessels
Give America Advantage Over
Rivals, He Says, in Pledging
Assistance to Lasker

From The Tribune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.-Howard ~
Hurley, of Chicago, former chairman
of the Shipping Board, to-day person
ally assured A. D. Lasker, the present
chairman, of his support in building up
the American merchant marine. He
declared that much of the criticism
directed against the board was unwar-
ranted.
81 have every confidence in Mr.. Las
ker and his efforts to upbuild a mer-
chant marine" Mr.. Hurley said 81
think he is doing absolutely right in
tying up the ships. but we ought to get
behind the millions of tons of steel
shipping that we have and impress the
country that they are fine vessels. We
have about ten million tons of steel
ships 80 per cent of which are oil
burners, which gives them a decided
advantage over all foreign ships.
at is fortunate that Mr.. Lasker in
duced Mr.. Powell to Join him as presi-
dent of the Emergency Fleet Corpora
ton. He speaks the language of ship
ping, and as he has built large num-
Der of ships for the Emergency Fleet
Corporation he knows that we have
millions of tons of fine ships that
should be patronized by American
shippers.
There are only per cent of all of
the other ships of the world oil burn
ers. Coal burners have 25 per cent
less efficiency"
