American members Of the crew OF
the ZR-2 recently had chafed over
the decision of General Maitland
not to permit the giant craft to
leave Howden until sailing condl-
tions were perfect Maitland was
criticised more or less for what
was considered overcautiousness.
Like the ZR-2 the R-34 ended its
career in disaster. She was cut in
two by a violent wind and left a
wreck outside her aidrome near
Edinburgh in January, 1921.
This vessel had had thrilling eX-
perience on her transatlantic
flight, and the collapse Of the ZR-2
would seem to have afforded Gen
eral Maitland some justification for
his hesitancy in sending the Amer
icars across seas with the ZR-2 in
the face Of weather odds.
Thorough Inspection Made.
In the construction Of the ZR-2
it was thought that many OF the
serious defects or the smaller ship
had been remedied. The vessel un-
derwent daily policing or cleansing.
then the engineers tested and re-
paired the six engines, the riggers
inspected the controls. gas bags,
valves. the outer cover and thin
surface. Constant hull inspection
on all dirigibleS is necessary BECAUSE
of the breakage Of small braces and
wires. The outer cover fabric
sometimes gets torn or blown loose
at the joints and repairs were made
Immediately to prevent the holes
from becoming larger. Gas bags
were inspected by going over them
with n leak finder. which register
ed any trace OF escaping hydrogen.
The fabric in the ZR-2's bags was
very thin and light and when it
chafed through it resulted in a loss
of gas. lowered purity and lift
reduction.
In flight the ZR-2 was operated
as far as possible along the lines of
a sea-going vessel. The ships alti-
tude capacity was 25.000 feet.
The crew of the ZR2 selected TO
bring her across the Atlantic to the
United States included IA officers.

IRISH CANNOT
AGREE AMONG
THEMSELVES
Sim Fein Parliament
Holds Secret Session
to Discuss British
Proposal

Dublin. Aug. 22-The Dali
Eireann held two secret sessions
today to consider the question OF
What Shall be It's reply to the Brit
ish governments peace offer. It
adjourned tonight without having
arrived at any decision, but VII
meet again tomorrow in private,
simultaneously with the gatherings
Of the Sian Fein executive commit
tee, which is somewhat similar 70
the national political party com
mittees in the United States.
There is little likelihood Of there
being any public session Of the Dali
Eir-ann until Friday, by which
time it's reply may have been sent
to Mr.. Lloyd George.
Secret sessions. the Irish Repu-
lican parliament to draft the Sim
Fein reply to Britain's peace pro-
posals began here today. The puD-
lie meetings last week and slose-
cuent conferences between Eal1ionn
D Valera and his colleagues we're
believed to have laid the ground
for an early reDly.
The presence Of Harry J. Bcland,
who represented -ir. De Valera IN
the United States after the Sim
Fein chieftain had returned to' Ire
land was considered as important
and his arrival yesterday, was look
ed upon as significant.
There have been indications that
a certain amount Of dissen2ion eX-
listed IN the rank and file OF the
parliament over the attitude to ee@
taken toward the british offer Of
doainion status for Ireland and It
appeared probable today th.a
n.any members would speak on the
question before final decision was
reached.
Press comments by Dublin news
papers would seem to reflect q de-
sire on the part Of the Sinn Fem
not to utterly reject BriJishS o:fer,
but rather to obtain from Prime
Minister Lloyd George statement
giving details Of the governments
Offer. Objections have been made
THAI Ireland, because OF her geo
graphical position would not c--
given the same sort Of dominion
government that is enjoyed by Can
ada or Auatrala, and it has been
held that the prime minister should
define Lis exact position in this
respect. Organs Of the Cnienlsts
have been urging acceptance OF the
governments proposals or at least
the submission Of .heEa to plebis-
cite in Southern ireland.
The attitude of Ulster up to today
haa apparently been unreLentins,
so far as making common cause
with the Sim Fein in attempting 20
reach settlement with Great Brit
ain was concerned. It seemed the
decision of Sir James Craig to
stand aloof during negotiations pc
tween / lblin and London had not
been reconsidered. The weekend
passed quietly in this city but It
was marrsd in Belfast by the explo-
sion Of q bomb.

Pres. Wannamaker Of

Says That Della
ton Policy Was
Cynical and
Crime


reserve board policies in connec~
ton with price and currency defa-
ton are cynical, cruel and inexcus-
able'' and constitute financial ty-
ranny and commercial criminality
J. S. Wannamaker, president Of
the American Cotton association
charged today before a joint con-
gressional agriculture commission.
The boards methods, he added, are
.heaping up gold in the United
States at the expense Of all civil
ization.'
Speaking, he said, for agricuilur-
al producers, the witness asserted
the federal board and banks We're
responsible for the general prize

was being exerted upon ''banilers
who are afraid Of their shadow,
who may find all ther loans called
by the reserve banks any minute.
and dare not disobey its orders,
according to Mr.. Wannanaher
who asked the commission to rec
ommend legislation for general re-
vision Of the reserve board person
mel.
He proposed that the personnel
be composed Of IL members. nom
mated from the various districts
as representatives Of industry in :
stead of banking, who should be
appointed by the president and
confirmed by the senate. urth@r
he suggested that the commission
recommend the instant reduction III
fderal reserve rediscount rates, to
basis of 3 1-2 per cent on Liberty
loan collateral.
.The federal reserve banking
system, created to serve the people,
by its administration has made the
people servants OF the system" he
asserted. Its policy will require
the American people to pay with
DEBATED dollars a national debt
borrowed in inflated dollars"
Price declines that have been ef-
fected lately. he declared, would
mot help CONSUMERS. because they
have left nothing for. agricultural
producers to do but combine and
reduce production SO low ia the fu-
ture that prices will give US some
margin Of profit and let US pay our
debts.' ,i.,s (
II heard as early as 1918 that
plans were being rigged to put ON
defation," Mr.. Wannamaker said.
This eliminated in what was
called buyers strike in 1920.
We never had a buyers strike, it
was a buyers panic. the result OF
unceasing propaganda sent out to
make people afraid Of prices, to
spread the fear that prices were
to go lower
by whom was this propaganda
spread ?" queried Representative
Funk (Republican) of Illinois.
''I"ll first take up the case Of the
reserve board" continued Mr.. Wan
r.amaker, land I'll ask the commits
sion to ask that board the amount
paid out for publicity during the
last IS months for correspondence
and the distribution Of newspaper
material"
Senator Harrison (Democrat)
Mississippi, asked if the reserve
board had publicity men and Mr..
Wannamaker replied that his i'm
preston was that they have and
that they are we'll paid.
Mr.. Wannamaker put into evil
dence statements and bulletins
! which he said the reserve board
issued during last two years and
which he said clearly showed It's
purpose to bring about declining
prices
