IRISH PEACE
MOVE GROWS
Meeting of Faction Leaders
Opens Conferences.

LONDON, May 6.-Irish peace develop
ments Of the utmost Importance are I'M
der way today. The conference in Dub
lin Of Sir James Craig, leader Of the
Ulster Unionists, and Eamonn Devalera,
president of the Irish Republic" was
characterized by the Daily Express as
''the most important event in Irish his
tory since the 1915 rebellion
viscount FitzAlan, the new Irish vice
roy, has come to London to consult with
Premier Lloyd George while a meeting
of the Ulster Unionist party was sum
moned at Belfast to receive q report from
Sir James Craig on the result of his con-
versations with DeValera
The hope for a compromise between the
hostile political factions in Ireland was
running stronger than at any other
time in recent years. The opinion pre-
vailed that the Irish troubles may be set
tied under the plan for a dual parliament,
one in Dublin for southern Ireland; the
other in Belfast for northern Ireland.
Both have been summoned to meet next
month.
However, there is a strong possibility
that a compromise between the Sim
Feiners and Unionists may eventually re-
suit in merger Of the parliaments into
single body.
