SCORES ROOSEVELT ACTIONS ON CANAL Bartered Honor of Nation With Band of FiIibusterS, Is
 Charge of Thomas
By Associated Press

Washington, January s.-President Roosevelts action in connection with the acquisition of the Panama canal zone was attacked and defended today in the Senate.
 Urging ratification of the Colombian treaty involving payment Of $25,0O0, OOo indemnity to Colombia for the partition of Panama, Senator Thomas democrat, of Colorado, charged that President Roos- evelt acquired the right of way for the canal from band of filibusters by bar tering for it the honor of the nation"
 The late former President was defended by Senator Kellogg, who told the Senate he could mot sit in silence and listen to reflections on the character and states manship of Theodore Roosevelt without expressing myself.
 The Panama canal, it's history. con struction and success is an open book, said Senator Kellogg Tt has been dis cussed, investigated and now supported, l am convinced, by the American people and the civilized world
 Not only that, but John Hay, great American and great Secretary of State, helped write that history. So did Elihu Root another, and so did Phiiander Knox. Theodore Roosevelt said once, it is true, T took Panama Did he say he took it unjustly or in contravention to international laws?
 Does the Senator think our treaties with Colombia guaranteed her against loss of Panama by insurrection? That belief is not borne out by the judge nent of authority or the facts. Does he think revolution was an exceptional thing in Panama? There were 50 revolutions in Panama in 50 years"
 Did our treaties authorize the landing of American marines to prevent Colom- bian troops from expressing revolu- tion?'' asked Senator Pomerine, dem- ocrat, Ohio.
 ''Yes,' Senator Kellogg replied .spec- ifically we had treaty power to protect the communications across the Isthmus and the Panama railroad. But I am not here now to discuss the treaty or the canal. I want to register only my opin- ion that the requirement. of the Canal rights was one of the great acts Of a great President in a great era of Amer ican history

LONDON, Aug. 1b.-Optimism con-
tlhues the prevailing nosc in London
opinion on the Irish question. The
general view is that Eamonn de VAL
era. leader OF tho republicans in Ire
land. having sought but failed to OBJ :
tain improved terms, is In n position
no worse than he was several days
ago, and that since the negotiations
arc being conducted by both sides to
the controversy with consideration.
there is no reason they should break
down.
Although the Irish republican par
Lament will convene in Dublin to-
morrow, no decision with regard to
the governments peace proposals is
expected for several days--until the
assembly has had full opportunity to
debate the question at issue.
Public opinion here considers that
the letter OF Jan c. Smuts. the Sos1h
African Premier. to De Valera. urg-
ing acceptance of the imperial gov
crnments proposals, is likely TO prove
the central and deciding factor of
the issue.
The belief is expressed, however.
that the Dahl Eireann will decline to
assume responsibility for decision,
but will refer the problem to plebis-
cite of the Irish people. either by u
referendum on the question OF ac-
ccpting or rejecting the govern

ton to the southern parliament, in
which case II is believed the advice
of General SHUTS will have the
greatest weight.
After freedom for ths last month
from their load OF anxiety incident
to the guerrilla warfare. II is felt
here that the Irish people will be re-
luctant to give decision which
would mean return of hostilities.
but will prefer to act on the advice
OF General SHUTS ana accept the gov
ernment's terms and leave to time the
settlement of the. Ulster problem.
