Grafton In such an effort and further
defined us follows us its own concep.
tions of the principles involved:
That there can be no hope for peace
or stability until the tax burden re.

been reduced.
That such reduction 10 possible

problems are solved by common con.
sent.
That among these problems the Pa.
cific and Far Eastern questions occu.
py II position of "unQuestIoned I'm.
portance."
That although there Is no intention
to dictate the scope Of the conference,
the discussions should touch upon
matters (which have been" of interna.
tional concern as well as those now
admittedly controversial; and
That the question Of naval arma.
ments might well be considered first
though there should be no barrier to a
full consideration of armaments Of ev.

suggestion that solution of the Far
Eastern situation should include
common understandings with respect
to matters which have been and are
Of international concern"
State Department officials would
not Interpret the text Of the note, but
the general assumption here was that
under this definition a way would be
found to discuss such questions as
zap and Shantung, which "have been"
Of international concern. but which
Japan now is inclined to regard as
closed incidents.

ted. On the other hand. Mr.. Lloyd
George has informed Mr.. De Valera
that there can be no compromise on
the question Of the right of Ireland
to secede from her allegiance to the
king. The premier tells Mr.. De Va.
lera that the conditions of the pro-
posed settlement contain no desire on
the part Of Great Britain for British
ascendancy over Ireland or the i'm.
pairment Of Ireland's national ideals.
"Our proposals present to the Irish
people," says the premier, '.an oppor.
tunity such as never has dawned In
their history before. We have made
them In a sincere desire to achieve
peace, but beyond them we cannot
CO."
Mr.. Lloyd George leaves open the
door for possible further negotiations
with Mr.. De Valera by saying that
the government will discuss the ap-
plication Of the principles Of its offer
whenever acceptance Of the principles
Is communicated to lin.
The official records In the Irish
peace negotiations were made public
Unexpectedly. They show seemingly
a deadlock, based on vital difference
between De Valera and the premier
De valera's renewed insistence on In.
dependence and that Ulster shall be re-
garded merely as q minority faction
Of an Irish nation.
The disclosures constitute the keen.
est polotical sensation since the close

cussing the question whether the door
had been closed on further negotiations.
They seemed to find in the concllia-
tory tons Of the correspondence, how.
ever, ground for hope that some bridge
might yet be built across the chasm
Of difference over the question Of In
dependence.
1t was the consensus of opinion that
all depends on the temper OF the Dali
Eireann when 1t meets In Dublin on
Tuesday but that altogether Ireland
stands at present at the most critical
point Of her history.
Great Britain offered Ireland COM
plete autonomy In finance and taxa.
tion, military forces for home defense,
her own police, and, among other
things, control Of the Irish postal
service.
