MORE OPPOSITIONs
TO LLOYD GEORGE;
POLICIES EVIDENT

London, Feb. 15.-New political
alignments and the proposal Of legis-
lative and governmental issues Of
importance to the people
of Great Britain were foreshadowed
when parliament reassembled here
today after a recess Of seven weeks.
Opposition to the Lloyd George min
istry and discomfort with many Of the
policies it has pursued in the recent
past, seemed to have reached q cli-
max. and it appeared the stability Of
the cabiDt would be given it's crucial
test before the final adjournment Of
the session next summer.
Attacks on the government seemed
certain to center about Ireland, the
conditions prevailing in that island
and the plans of the premier for the
future government of the Irish people.
supporters Of the coalition
government were among those who
were most bitter in their comment on
the Irish situation, and appeared to
be united with the opposition.
Collapse Of the Lloyd George regime
not forecast, as it was foreseen
he probably would be able to control
enough votes in the commons to
carry through his ministry's plans,
but it was evident that tho premier
would be called upon. to fight in his
most vigorous manner IL he was to
come unscathed from the struggle:

SINN FEINERS WILL
BE GIVEN REGULAR
PRISON TREATMENT

Dublin, Jan. 28.-Severe criticism of
the treatment of prisoners confined at
the Ballykinlar internment camp on
Dundrum bay, County Down, is pub
lished by the Irish Bulletin. a Sim
EeiR publication. 1t is sserted that Sir
Iamar .Greenwood's statement in tho
house OF commons that the informed
men would be accorded treatment
similar to that normally given prison.
crs Of war is far from correct.
The prisoners are given wholly in
sufficient food and many of them go
this food they are unable to make the
most of, as they do all their own
cooking and are allowed less than half
the supply of coal necessary"
There is no hot water in the camp,
no wash-house and no drying room,
the article continues, and it is there
fore necessary for the prisoners to do
water and dry their laundry wherever
they can. r"4r,.
"Many of the prisoners" the state
ment goes on. care practically bare
footcd',' saying hat no arrangements
have been made for supplying them
with boots or even for repairing those
they have.
1t is charged that, while the prison.
ers are permitted to receive parcels,
"alnlost invariably part of the contents
is pilfered by the English troops in the
camp" The prisoners suffer intensely
from cold and undertaking, it is stat
ed.
Every batch Of prisoners who have
arrived at the camp during the. last
month" the article goes on "have
complained of their treatment en-
route. One batch Of 2e men left a GER
tain camp near Dublin on Sunday
evening and did not arrive in Bally-
kinlar until Tuesday evening. During
this time they received practically no
food. the military guard having for
gotten the prisoners rations." ,

WISCONSIN WOULD
ANNEX PENINSULA

fri eedfS't cont M,Sefs between baO; 's:; Miohts
gan and Wisconsin over possession Of
a strip Of land comprising about 100
square miles: and that. has resulted in
the effort Of Wisconsin to have the
entire northern Michigan PENINSULA
separated from Michigan and annex
ed to Wisconsin. had its start "a years
ago, when Michigan was admitted to
statehood.
The tract in dispute. that has an
assessed valuation of less than $10,-
O00. 600. has been a part of Wiscon-
sinssince the boundary line was estab-
lished in 1897 but Michigan repeat
eddy has claimed the district on the
the surveyors.
A few years ago the Michigan leg
islature created a special commission
to arbitrate the dispute, but the gov
Lernor'of Wisconsin at that time de-
clared there was nothing to arbitrate.
The Michigan commission Is to make
another attempt at arbitration, a new
governor having taken office in Wis
consin January /. Members of the
Michigan commission have announced
suit may be started in the United
States supreme court to settle the
boundary question If Wisconsin again
refuses arbitration.
The strip OF land over which the
84-year-old dispute has been waged
contains the town Of Hurley, scene Of
the recent prohibition raids.
Michigan came into possession Of
1.-THE upper peninsula as a result Of the
s~o-called Toledo War" that resulted
in 1885. or two years before Michi-
gan became a state. Ohio had been
admitted to statehood in 1902 with an
northern boundary. The
act of. 1906, organizing Michigan ter.
ritory. had fixed the Michigan boun-
diary to include the land in which the
city Of Toledo apd adjacent territory
lis located. When Govern Vt Lucas Of
Ohio issued a proclamation assuming
lcontrol of the district the governor OF
michigan called out'the militia, which
proceeded to Toledo to prevent Ohio
from taking control. a few shots
were fired but there was nc blood
shed.
Congress settled the dispute by
granting the land to Ohio and giving
michigan the northern peninsula.
