HOPE FOR PEACEFUL
SOLUTION Of IRISH
PROBLEM IS FADING
Ulster and Sim Fein Represen-

Have Reached Critical Stage.
LLOYD GEORGE is PUZZLED


Ey Associated Press to Every Evening.
London, Nov. 25.--As Premier Craig
Of Ulster went into conference with
Prime Minister Lloyd George today,
II was admitted officially that the Irish
peace negotiations had reached a
grave and critical stage"
A prominent member Of the Sim
Fein bore this out
THE situation is too serious for
talk" he said. Arthur Griffith. Mich
ael Collins and George Duffy Cthe Sim
Fein delegates) have gone to Dublin
to take council with Mr.. DE Valera
and the DAN Eireann cabinet, and 70
receive instructions as to the attitude
they are to adopt. They viii return
70 London Saturday night TO meet Mr..
Lloyd George after he has received
Sir James Craig's reply"
At today's interview Mr.. Lloyd
George was unable to give Ulster as
surance that even II she agreed to his
proposal the Sim Fein would admit
the point Of allegiance to the king
as King Of Ireland Such admission
has been refused by the Dali Elreann
representatives, who are declared to
view Ireland's position solely as that
Of an independent state which. how
ever. might make treaties with the
other states Of the British empire and
I possibly even acknowledge the king
as the president Of a federation Of free
states.
This Is nothing like the settlement
plan the British government had in
mind, and it appears that II the Sim
fF'ein maintains its attitude the ne
gotiations must be broken off with
the resumption OF warfare an irnned-
late possibility.
An effort is being made by the
moderate element in Ireland to induce
the Sim Fein 10 modify its views.
it is understood. but so far without
effect
1t was learned later that Arthur
( Griffith would not leave on his trim
10 Dublin until tonight. As he is the
foreign minister in the Dali Eireann
Cabinet, with no local Irish duties. his
visit to Ireland is believed TO be due
s?lely to a desire to consult Eamon
h Valera before the possible final
DAak up.
The Ulster members of the In
perial government who resigned be-
cause OF the differences between the
government and Ulster have been con-
tinuing their duties 1T the govern
ments request, and it IS not expected
that. in the event of the failure Of ne
igotations, acceptance Of their resig-
nations viii be necessary, as would
have been the case il a break came
over listers position alone.
The interview between. the Ulster
premier and Mr.. Lloyd George today
lasted an hour, Sir James said upon
leaving that he did not know whether
there would be another conference
this afternoon. but that he was going
20 Belfast tonight.
