CANADA MADE PROPOSAL
For Holding Conference on Eastern Sit
uation.

London, July canadian Press -
Premier Lloyd Georges Statement in
the British House of Commons, con
cerning a proposed international con
ference, regarding which replies from
Japan and the United States were anx
iously awaited, confirms the announce
ment previously made in well-informei
quarters that such a conference would
be sought.
In view of the BEjtish prime minis
ter's statement there can now be no
harm in stating that the original pro-
posal for such a conference came from
the Canadian government early in Feb
ruary last. 1t was then suggested that
the dominion government, through the
department of external affairs, be en-
powered to consult with Washington
TO sound it out, so to speak-on the
possibility of a Pacific conference.
What the replies of Japan and the
United States NAV be mob IL hcre
appears TO know. IL il felt, however,
that insofar as the Un.tad States is
concerned there weuld be a great
chance of its response being more fa-
vorable if the Anglo japanese alliance
should be denounced.
Should it be found that the contin-
ued existence of the alliance was stand
ing in the way of conference, then it
is certain that some of the dominion
prenliers will press for the necessary
II months notice OF denunciation being
given at once.
Meanwhile the British press makes
no attempt TO disguise the fact that il
regards the situation as one Of the
vastest moment, involving, as it does,
tie whole future of armament and the
peace world.

ENGLISH ARE HOPEFUL
But They Have Not Placed Full Faith
on Conference.

London, July s.-Deliberations of the
Sim Fein and the unionists OF South
Ireland meeting at Dublin to-day ATE
hoped to develop some basis for peace
negotiations which will end the era Of
bloodshed that has prevailed in Ireland
for many months. English political
writer's in this mornings newspapers
seemed TO believe the prospect of an
agreement should be regarded more
with hope than with faith. In many
quarters indeed, the situation was
viewed as giving little occasion for op-
timism.
This view was based largely on the
belief that Eamonn De Valera. leader
of the Sim Fein, adhered unalterably
10 his demand for the establishment Of
an Irish Republican, and that the Brit
ish government, as well as Ulster. took
its stand upon the Irish act, recently
passed by the British Parliament.
II was stated that Earl Middleton,
South Irish unionist leader. who was
in London 10 confer with Prime Minis
ter Lloyd George and others who were
named to Dublin last sight had taken
with him an intimation that any set
tlement must be in harmony with the
Irish act, in accordance with which
the Belfast Parliament was created
Whether. in the face OF such an a..
titude, Mr.. DE Valera, would accept
the prime ministers invitation to Lon
don was regarded in many quarters as
extremely doubtful Where the more
hopeful view was taken, however, il
was believed that Mr. De Valera might
reply with a counter-proposal. This, ac-
cording to information received by the
Associated Press from Belfast, might
take the form of Mr.. DE Valera insist
ing that the government put its card,
on the table" before disclosing his own
hand. II was said he might maintain
that. as Mr.. Lloyd George had proposed
a conference between Ulster, South Ire
land and the British government, the
onus of the situation was upon him
Another view held in Ulster was that
the Sim Fein could not stand the f
nancial strain Of prolonging the conflict
and. therefore, was disposed 10 come I D
