LONDON. June 27.-Eamonn De
valera,n head of the Sim Fei
party. after reviewing carefully the
invitation of Lloyd George to sit
down at a table and settle the Irish
question smicably, probably will
call for an assembly of the Dali
Eiram before sending his formal
consent to the conference.
There is little doubt, however,
that the Irish leaders will accept
the invitation, government officials
going so far as to predict the down
fall of the Irish leader il he de-
clines to meet the British premier.
De Valera canvas of leading
Sim Feiners is resulting. it is said,
in a showdown between the con-
servatives and the extremists, of
whom Michael Collins. commander
in-chief of the Irish Republican
army. is the chief exponent.
Reply Due Wednesday.
A reply one way or the other is
expected from De Valera on We'd
nesdsy. 1t is now intimated that
the Irish leader may impose certain
conditions upon consenting to meet
Lloyd George, the first of which
will be cessation of all hostility
during the negotiations. Such a
condition no doubt would be accept
able to the British premier.
1t is noteworthy that this is the
first time Lloyd George has issued
a formal or informal suggestion of
compromise to the Sim Fein or
ganization which imposes absolute
ly no conditions surrounding it's
! acceptance. Nobody is excluded
from participation as representing
Ireland so long as he is acceptable
to De Valera as a colleague.
Collins to Come.
II Is therefore believed without
question that Michael Collins. al
though opposed to De Valera in the
policy of combating England, will
be one OF the delegates to the con-
ference.
So seriously has the government
considered this atest move for Irish
peace that Downing Street officials
say no minor questions will be al
lowed to jeopardize the undertake
ing.
In the meantime the Irish office
is participating with its program
for the pacifcation CT Ireland by
force as though the pending nego-
tiations har not been heard of.
Troops are on the march. Military
orders for the entertainment and
embarkation of reinforcements for
the troops now in the south of Ire
land are going forth constantly.
