Washington. = President Harding
has asked the Senate to approve the
arms conference treaties so that
Americas prOfessed desire to rid the
world Of war may not become "a mol
low mOckery." III We cannot Join in
making effective these covenants for
peace" he said. and stamp this con-
ference with Americas approval, we
shall dlscredIt the influence Of the re-
public, render future efforts futile and
unlikely, and write encouragement
where today the world Is ready To nc
claim new hope"
Delivering his message In person, In
a voice and manner that betokeneti
deep emotion. the President was an
swered repeatedly by applause from
floor and gallery. He asked that rstl-
ficatiOn be given without delay, and
before he left the capitol Senate ma
chinery was set In motion to hasten
10 vote.
Five principal treaties and two sup
Elemental agreements. the frultion Of
the twelve weeks Of negotiation Just
concluded here. were 10 the bundle of
International covenants taken to the
Senate chamber by Mr.. Harding. They
propose, In short, u limitation Of ma
vdl ornaments. a new bill Of rights
for China and u four-power concord to
preserve peace In the Pacific.
All OF these agreements, saId the
President. are related portions OF the
effort Ito put an end to contrndIc-
lions. TO remove antiquities and es-
tablish clea" understandings. "None
Of them" he INSERTED, Commits the
American government to my kind Of
nn alliance, ENHANCEMENT or invOlv-
ment."
After the address Republican and
Democratic leaders predicted the trca.
ties would be ratified without long de-
bate ind by substantial mnjorities.
One one. the fOur-power PucIfic pact.
Is threatened now with organized op-
position. and its opponents lave not
yet demonstrated how large vote
they can command.
Mr.. Harding predicted that the
Chinese treaties would go long way
toward realizing the long cherished
hope for II stable and free China.
But the greater part Of his address
the President reserved for the four
power Pacific pact, against which op-
position has been organizing both on
the Republican and Democratic sides
Of the Senate.
The expectation TINT most of the Op-
position Will center about the four
power treaty was further supported
when Senator Borah, Republican, of
Idaho. and others who are fighting the
Pacific pact. indicated they would not
oppose the others.
Other Republican "irreconcilables'
of the Versailles treaty fight, declared
that with the japanese mainland now
excluded from the operation Of the
four-power treaty they were rendy to
support 1t.
Democratic leaders, particularly
those regarded close to former Presl,
dent Wilson, withheld public comment.

Dublin.-Eamon De Valera opened
The campaign against the provisional
government with great demOnatra'
ton held In O'Connell street. Mem
bsrs Of the republican and metropoli-
tan police regulated the gathering. All
traffic in O'Connell street was sus-
pended for an hour by order Of the
republican chief Of police.
About one thousand republican SOL
oilers paraded prior to the meeting.
Mr.. DE- Valera WAS accorded u great
reception. Six resolutions proposed
during the meeting affirmed that the
irish nation wns one and invisible {;
that sll state authority In Ireland Is
derived solely from the Irish people !;
that the British crown Is I'm allen
crown, and that Ireland Is no part Of
the British empire.
The resolutions further declared
that the articles OF the London agree
ment failed to represent the true de.
siree OF the Irish people; that the
treaty was obtained under duress, and
that the Dali Eireann Ii not compe-
tent to give 1t legal sanction. and
therefore, It Is null and void.
They added that to force upon Ire
land an election involving recognition
Of partition before the Dali Eireann
has expressed Its sanction ID unconsti-
tutional. An additional resolution
called upon the people for support Of
the dependents Of prisoners.
Mr.. De vaera in his speech said 1t
was q lie that the Irish people would
by a majority accept the treaty.
He added that although the meeting
had been advertised for only three
days, thousands Of persons had as
sembled in support Of the republic pro-
claimed during Easter week and which
was ratified at the Irish elections. The
London agreement was not a treaty.
but an instrument which In every line
denied Irish sovereignty. 1t was
signed, he said. under duress and was
no more binding than the Infamous act
Of union.
Mr.. he Valera said the articles Of
the agreement bound the Irish people
to exchange their republic for mon.
archy. He asked II the people wanted
az their monarch "King George Of
England" to which there were replies
Of mo. no." The king would be en-
bodied In the Irish constitution and
he really the authority Of Premier
Lloyd George and his cabinet. The
foreign monarch's forces could hold
the principal forts and have air ia
cilitIes; and when Great Britain was
at war. which was practically always.
the British government could take over
the harbors and iceland would be
belligerent. liable to attack by Great
Britafn's enemy.
The alternative policy. Mr.. De Va.
lera declared, was the policy Of the
last four years. the policy which the
present opponents Of the Republicans
once shared with them. The speaker
appealed to the Irish people again.
