London. Both houses Of the
British parliament ratified the treaty
creating the Irish Free State by
overwhelming majorities.
After final arguments In favor of
ratification, presented in the house of
commons by Austen Chamberlain, the
government leader, and in the house
of lords by Lord Chancellor BirkeA-
head, both houses voted emphatic re-
lection of the Unlonist amendments to
the kings address from the throne.
II these amendments had been adopt
ed, 1t would have had the effect of
killing the treaty.
The amendment to the kings speech,
proposed In the commons by Colonel
John Gretton, Conservative, express
sng regret that the treaty would in
volye the surrender of rights of the
crown in Ireland and give power to
establish an Independent Irish army
and navy" received the support OF
only fffty-eight members to 401 In op-
position
A similar amendment moved In the
. house of lords by the Duke of Nor
cumberland, mustered only forty
seven "die hard' votes to 166 against
1t.
The rejection of three amendments
by both houses OF parliament had the
effect of adoption Of the kings adj
dress without a division, which con-
stituted ratification Of the treaty.
At the resumption Of debate in the
commons, Arthur Henderson, Labor
leader, said the Labor party welcomed
the treaty and hoped 1t would be rati-
fed.
Major Rooert O'Neill, speaker Of
the northern parliament at Belfast, at
tackled the treaty, particularly on the
grounds II proposed revision of
boundaries between north and south
Ireland without the consent OF Ulster.
The prime minister, David Lloyd
George, interviewed and denied he had
said II the Sim Fem had q majority
in the counties Of Tyrone and For
managh South ireland would get the
whole Of the counties. On the con-
trary, he asserted, all he ever had sug-
gested was that the character Of the
population would be taken into ac-
count, as well as the economic and
geographical conditions.
Hope a decision would be reached
by the dali cream Republican par
lament, which is aagin meeting in
secret at Dublin, was slight. 1t was
believed the public session, at which
the vote on the treaty will be taken
may be deferred until next week.
Anxiety Is expressed as to the
treaty's fate. In Dublin, where prolon-
cation Of the dail's secret sessions Is
regarded as an unpleasant symptom.
