posed to a dual parliment for the island,
iaw Prime Minister Lloyd George to-
day, Lord Middleton stating the case for
them, while the Ulsterites had before
them the Governments refusal of their
counter proposals for settlement of the
Irish question.
John Miller Andrews, Secretary OF
Labor In the Ulster Cabinet, upon his
return to Belfast to-day made it clear.
in q statement to the press. that the
Governments proposal to Ulster was
or a single parliament for a united
Ireland, and that Ulster had replied that
she must have a separate pariiament-a
suggestion which neither the Sim Fem
ers nor the Southern Unionists would
agree TO.
His statement read: "a disgraceful
betrayal OF Ulster has been attempted
by the Coalition Cabinet. The sugges-
ton has been made that we should
agree 10 parliament for all Ireland
with dominion powers. We have in
formed his Majestys Government that
we are not prepared to admit the
ascendancy Of any parliament other
than the Imperial Parliament over ours
or to agree TO reserved services being
transferred to a parliament for all
Ireland which undoubtedly would be
controlled by those who are enemies of
the empire"
Our Premier and his colleagues have
pointed out to his AIajesty's Govern
ment in the clearest possible way that
any discussion based on a parliament
for all Ireland must prove fruitless, and
we have asked that this proposal should
be withdrawn before any conference
takes place between his Majestys Gov
ernment and the Ulster Cabinet In the
interests OF peace, which every right
thinking person desires, we accepted a
parliament OF our own as a compromise
and final settlement. II Is for our op-
ponents, if they desire peace. to accept
and work their parliament in southern
Ireland in the same spirit. with the OBJ
ject of producing a happy, prosperous,
reaceful and loyal Ireland. The Ulster

the prosecution that Landru cremated

NJ. Moro Giafferi of counsel for
Landru said he would plead insanity for

Landru has assumed the role OF Good
Samaritan in his answer TO the charge
OF numbering Mile. Andree Bateley, his
seventh alleged victim. Nile. Bateley
was the only girl in the list of his ter

all elderly or middle aged. Landru said he
merely had befriended the comely girl

court he therefore could not have nlur'

Not only the future of Ireland, but
the future Of the present British Gov
ernment, and even the future of the
empire will be at stake in the Cnionist
party conference opening in Liverpool
Tomorrow night. The Irish negotia-
tions here are practically at :; stand
still pending that conference, while
tho Lloyd George Government is para
lyzed in SO far as the Washington con-
florence is concerned until it's fate is
settled In Liverpool.
It Is understood that Ulster must
make the next move, the Govern
inent's reply to the rejected Ulster
counter proposals being a relteration
OF the original plan offered and con-
tanning no fresh suggestions
1t is fact that if Ulster and the Brit
fsh "die hard" Unionists muster even a
respectable minority, much less ma
sority. the whole course OF British politi-
cal events will thereafter prove uncer-
tain and disturbing. and anything Lloyd
George does will be open to challenge
rs never before since he became Prime
Minister. What the Government forces
lear is that this minority may become of
respectable size through accretion from
scattered rural Constituencies whose
voices are seldom heard save in routine
| party councils In Westminster
The consequence is that the Govern
hlent Is taking every step to make sure
that It's case is presented at the Liver
pool conference in an amply sufficient
fashion. Admittedly, however, the ''die
hards" and Ulster are working with cen
tury old religious and political bigotries.

the single exception of the Ulster wing
What the Government forces are count
ing on Is convincing vote OF confidence
at Liverpool which will enable the Irish
negotiations to be concluded with Ulster
becoming fully aware OF the utter futility
OF recalcitrancy. If the situation ever
arrives at the stage where Ulster is
willing to sit down In conference with
the Government and the Sim r'ein and
work out the details of some agreed
compromise plan. it Is considered likely
that Lloyd George will then make a
quick decision that these details can be
worked out without him and that his
presence in Washington Is imperative.
But under the present circumstances
the Prime Minister Is determined that
he must stick out here until Ireland
and the future of the Coalition Govern
ment is settled.
Signs here arc that the group known
as the die hards" are already casting
sheep eyes at the Washington confer
ence decisions as u means of enlbarrass-
ing the coalition.
The "die hards'' have many connec-
tions in the army and navy and in
armament firms, and they are already
beginning to question the wisdom OF re-
ducing the navy when it has to protect
the British sea lines OF communication,
which are as important to Eng!ands life
as the trans-continental railroads are to
that of the United States. Also they
are pointing out that the British navy
has TO protect the entire empire and
Australia's coast line. which alone is rs
long as that OF the United States.

be successful in merchandising a man
must be primarily a merchant, but he
must also be something Of banker and

grasp the great secret Of how to keep
his stock turning over. Goods In guam :

the eye, but unless It Is constantly
going through the process Of sale and

only in so far as it sells, and this means
knowledge of what the public wants and
when II wants il.
The administrative end is even more
intricate. Take this store for illus
