The alignment of forces in the Dai
Eireann at the time of adjournment as
taken Thursday evening seems to in
sure the adoption of the treaty by com
Portable majority. The adjournment OF
the debate has been a real victory for
Collins and Griffith as against De
Valera. 1t will give time for Irishme Ell
here in England as we'll as Irish on the
other side of the channel to get their
bearings on the situation. and l be-
lieve it will strengthen the hands of the
advocates Of the pact
De Valera Omits Common Citizenship
But as / see the situation, Arthur
Griffith's shadow may have real
substance for Irishmen on this side of
the channel however shadowy it may
be for lrishmen in Ireland. For the
latter it may be Il mock matter of form.
For Irishmcn here it may have a seri-
Gus meaning.
The oath contained i'll the agreement
enyisages Irishmer as in common cit
izenship of Ireland and Great Britain" :"
De Valera's oath affirms the associa-
ton of Ireland with British common
wealth, but omits reference to the COM
mon citizenship of 1rishmen in the
United Kingdom.
What does this mean? There is as
yet no explanation. But the obvious
implication is that it affects Irishmen
here as well as in Ireland. A large
part of the population of Great Britain
is Irish by birth or part Irish by pa
rentage. We have no quarrel with
them. They are with us in all of our
activities. They are not only with us.
but of us. Their blood is co-mingled
with ours. To do anything which would
make them aliens would be to cut out
what has become vital to both of us.
Concerns Irish In England
But even if this may be strained
Of De Ealera's meaning,
it is quite cellar that Irishnren coming
here in the future would come as aliens.
Whatever De Valera may have in his
mind, that is the clear literal meaning
OF the words. Therefore, it is plain
that the Irish question in this aspect
ceases to be a question only for Irish
men in ireland, and becomes one for
consideration for Irishmen in Great
Britain also.
Meantime, while the Irish conference
is adjourned the Washington confer
ence has inspired the British people
with new hope The French demands
were disturbing element and caused
England to watch the later sessions
with so~re anxiety, but is already such
a volume of agreement as to insure
success The conferences constitute
n great effort which entities those who
are responsible to say that they are
working to truly celebrate the birth of
the Prince of Peace The results at
Washington are q grand Christmas
gift to the world.

Riga, Latvia-(C Correspondence OF
the Associated Press
whose death rate in 1919 reached the
devastating percentage of 76 out OF
every 1000 inhabitants, is growing
healthier, according to an official boil
shevik radio dispatch. The death rate
for the first SIX months of 1921 was

, We heard from England that France
was counselled to evacuate the left
bank of the Rhine or in any case to
reduce the number of men stationed
there. This would be destruction pure
and simple to the treaties of 1919. The
details of conversations" passed-and
nothing was decided. 1t is said every
thing is to be rediscussed.
French May BaIk
One cannot predict at this time the
fate of any of the astonishing projects
brought forward at London l can
say, however. and it is necessary for
America to know it. that if such plans
materialize French opinion, which has
supported for two years So many mu-
tilations of of French rights, will balk
It is only too clear that London once
more has tried to consider only Ger
many's capacity to pay. The Frenchs
people would consider their will to pay.
Everything points today to the fact
that any bankruptcy at this time on
the part of Germany would be fraud
ulent.
Owing in gold. Germany has for two
years tried to cheaper her paper money
by government waste and prodigious
subsidies, all the while keeping the
gold earned through expectation. Thus.
Germany is forced to artificial bank
ruptcy. Will she be permitted to stay
in bankruptcy? This is not a question
of ability. 1t is a question of desire.
1t seems there will be no attempt to
make Germany change her mind. Vain
ly the reparations committee declares
that Germany can pay. Vainly Chief
same opinion. But no coercion is en-
visaged; nothing is discussed but post
ponements.
French Getting Impatient.
Instead, we are told to retire our
troops from the Rhine So as to re-
duce Germany's charges. We are told
further to sit at the table with Stin-
mes and krassin, representatives re-
spectively of German Imperialism and
Russian bolshevism. In the face of
all this, we must keep our hope that
common sense will return. If the
present way is kept up it will realize
an evaporation in France equal to the
patience of the last two years
Newspapers. inspired by the govern
ment, do not say this, but it is the
duty of an independent man to say it
because it is true.
The more one seeks to maintain and
consolidate peace and understanding
between France and Great Britain. the
more one should raise the cry of alarm
against such adventures.
We are beginning to tire of discourse
being constantly substituted for acts
and we believe this method merely
opens the way for future troubles.
There is now among the parliament
elements. majority which would base
peace with England with right but
viii not accept an iniquitous peace nor
Il peace of Insecurity. for such peace
is essentially dangerous.

Small Envelopes Barred
IN Mails at Xmas Rush

In an effort to relieve congestion
in the mails at Christmas time,
warnings have been issued by postal
authorities directing the attention
OF the public against the use Of small
envelopes containing cards and sea
son greetings. The obvious reason
for this. II ia pointed out. is that the
small envelopes become lost and are
extremely difficult 10 handle.
Caution against the use of en-
velopes smaller than "a by 4 in.
is made n view OF the fact that
cancellation marks on the envelope
CELEBRATES the addresses and the en-
velopes are too small for the facinE
tables which necessitates three extra
landings. The resultant confusion
IS such. II is said, that the delivery
OF other mail is held up at a time
when the greatest burden is placed
on the postal system.
