Invitation By Prime Minister Is
Accepted by Irish Repub-
lican Leader.
BRITISH is WILLING TO
GRANT DOMINION STATUS
Ireland, However, Must Be Will
ing to Drop Demand for
a Republic.
tax rhe Assoelated Pre...l

LONDON, July 10.-The British
prime minister, Mr.. Lloyd George, and
the Irish republican leader, EamCnn
de Valera, will probably meet son :
day this week to discuss a basis for
a general conference on an Irish settle
ment. Mr.. Lloyd George has asked
Mr.. de Valera to name the day, and
has added further invitation to amy
colleagues whom you wish to bring
with you
Irelands struggle for freedom has
been a long history of bafhed hopes;
otherwise the present situation would
be full of promise for final peaceful
settlement. But while past history
does not afford food for over-con-
fidence-a point emphasized in the way
OF warning by Mr.. de Valera himself
in manifesto to the Irish people
there are some aspects which differ
entirely from any previous peace effort
First, the whole British nation now
is practically willing to grant Ireland
dominion status, if Ireland is willing
to drop the demand for republic.
Second, the dominion premiers now
in London are ready to support ac-
cording to all indications, Irelands
claim for dominion status with fiscal
autonomy and voice in foreign af-
fairs, the latter being an important
aspiration of the dominions themselves.
Such help from the outside as that
afforded by statesman of the calibre
of General Smuts, the South African
premier, who admittedly has much in
fluence over the government policy IS
an asset which Ireland has never be-
fore enjoyed.
Third, this is the first time that
Mr.. Lloyd George is any peace negotia-
tions has imposed no conditions what
ever.
Finally truce has been arranged
for an indefinite period No date has
been fixed or hint of any notice re-
quired to denounce it. The whole sur
rounding circumstances in this latest
peace effort would seem to prove that
both sides are deeply in earnest in
desiring success.
on the other side of the picture is
the attitude of the extremists among
both Sim Feiners and Orangemen, and

matter of drilling deeper TO known

to the local producers. This does not

upon the resources of the fields. As
has been pointed out in articles which
have appeared in various periodicals

given figures which demonstrate that
small production from deep wells is
disastrous to operators with oil quoted

wells show an increase OF sc. and
