General SnnutS Gives Official
Confirmation Of Reports
Just Prior to Sailing for
South Africa,
FORCE AS A SOLUTION
OUT OF THE QUESTION
De Valera Is Urged to Leave
Ulster Alone for the Pres
emit Won't Come Into an
Irish State,
(By The Assoclnied Press.)

London, Aug. 13 (By the AS
sociated Press) Official con-
firmation OF reports that the Brit
ish government had offered Ire
land dominion status was given
late today when a letter was made
public at Premier Lloyd Georges
official residence written by Gen.
eral SHUTS. South African pre-
mier, to Eamonn de Valera on Au-
gust 4. Just before General Smuts
left for South Africa.
1.-THE British prime minister"
wrote General Smuts. in the course
Of his long letter. "offers a COM
plete dominion status to the twen-
ty-six counties. subject to certain
strategic safeguards which you are
asked to agree to voluntarily as a
free dominion. 1t is far more than
was offered the Transvaal and the
Freestate"
General Smuts. In the letter,
asserted there existed an impasse.
This, he said. was that both Sir
James Craig, the Ulster premier,
and Mr.. de Valera were equally
immovable, the formef maintain
ing that Ulster would not, consent
to a change from her present
status and the republican leader
insisting that Ulster come under
united Ireland constitution.
Force as a solution of the
problem" continued Gener |
Smuts, "is out of the question. The
process of arriving at an agree
ment will therefore take time"
General Smuts explained that for
this reason he considered he could
be of no further use at this stage
of the negotiations and therefore
was going home.
Any solution on the lines of
Ulster coming into an Irish state
was foredoomed to failure at the
present, he said.
General Smuts urged Mr.. de Va
lera to leave Ulster alone at pres
ent and concentrate on free con-
stitution for the remaining twenty
six counties Of Ireland. "andI
through the successful running OIL
the Irish state and the pun of eeo-I
ncmic and peaceful forces even
tually bring Ulster into that state.r
AS | said before" reiterated
General Smuts. 81 don't consider
one single. ciean-cut solution of
the Irish question possible at pres
ent."

y Deputy Sheriff.

ages Is Decided Upon; Expect Measure to
Yield $4,000, ,000,O0
tBY THE ASSOCIATED pREss.y

Washington, Aug, 19.-Revision
of the 1918 tax law was completed
today by republican members of the
house ways and means committee
with the adoption of these addition
al changes:
Repeal Of the express and oil pipe
line transportation taxes, effective
January l, 1922.
Imposition of a license tax of $40
on vendors of soft drinks. effective
upon enactment of the bill.
Substitution of a manufacturers
tax of 12 cents gallon on cereal
beverage (near beer) for the pres
ent levy of Is per cent, effective
upon enactment of the amendment.
Imposition Of a 8 per cent tax
on the full manufacturers selling
price of the following articles, If
sold by the manufacturers at levels
in excess of those specified:
Carpets and rugs, $3.50 per
square yard; trunks, $50 each;
valises, travelling bags, suit cases,
hat boxes used by travellers and
fitted toilet cases. SIS: purses,
pocket books, shopping and hand
bags, $4 each; portable lighting
fixtures, including lamps of all
kinds and shades, $40 each; fans,
81 each, and house or smoking
coats or jackets and bath or loung-
ing robes, 50 each.
These taxes also would become
effective upon enactment of the
bill.
Announcing completion of their
work, members of the committee
said they believed the bill as
agreed upon would produce the
$4,000 100000 total which Secre-
tary Mellon estimated at the White
House tax conference last Tuesday
1t would be necessary to raise from
internal revenue next year. Not
all of this sum would be collected
on this years business, however, as
the total includes 100000, 900,
which treasury officials estimate
can be collected on back taxes.
The bill as finally drafted by the
committee will be presented to the
house Monday under present plans
