TROOPS TO
REMAIN IN
IRELAND
Evacuation of British
Soldiers Suspended
In Face of Renewed
Hostilities

Dublin, Feb. 49, o Associ-
ated Press. )-The = alton of
the British troops Z her mill
tary forces from Z g was sus-
pended unexpected : lay. The
sailing of the st : S due to
leave for Holy T -, md Liver
pool with contin = on board,
was cancelled. II as thought
the suspension might be due to
the events in Ulster.
Officials at military general
headquarters said they were un-
able to give any information on
the subject, while Dublin castle
officials stated they had nothing
to do with the evacuation.
Situation Dangerous"
London, Feb. 13.-(By Assoi
ated Press. 1.-The situation in
Ireland, which had seemed to be
improving under the apparent eff
forts of Arthur Griffith and Mich
ael Collins to obtain the release of
the kidnapped Ulster men, has be-
come actutely dangerous as the
result of the Clones ARRAY on Sun
day.
The Times Dublin correspond
ent says dismay followed the news
of the clash in which four special
Ulster constables were killed,
and eight wounded and six made
prisoners, and the leader OF the
Sim Feiners, Matthew Fitzpat-
rick, shot dead. The provisional
was perturbed, as the
affair dashed the high hopes based
upon it's amnesty proclamation
and the British decisions to re-
lease all prisoners held for Of
fenses committed in England
from Irish political motives prior
to the truce in Ireland. Develop
ments are awaited with the ut
most anxiety.
Cause Not Determined.
There is some conflict in the
accounts of how the shooting was
precipitated. Irish republican
army men at Clones and their
take the stand that
armed and uniformed Ulster men
had no right to enter Free State
territory, and subjected them
selves to arrest by so doing. 1t is
pointed out that the Gaelic foot
oall players now in the Derry jail
we're arrested for similar reason
1y the Ulsterites.
The account of the shootlng
rom the same source is that Fltz-
patrick approached the Ulster con-
,tables and ordered them to raise
heir hands, promising no violence
f they surrendered. The only re-
,ly to this demand, it is said, was
he shooting and killing OF Fltz-
patrick, and then the republican
army men fired.
In Belfast, on the other hand,
It is contended the rights oil
southern Ireland were not In
,ringed upon by sending the po-
ice from Belfast to Enniskilled
,y train, although the line passes
'or a few miles through Free state
.erritory. Northern police are de-
Jared to have travelled that route
IN Thursday and Friday without
nolestation or protest, either To-
ally or from the provisional gov
,rnment.

FORD WILL
STAND PAT
ON OFFER
Muscle Shoals Propos-
al Now Before Con-
gress Final, Mayo
Tells Committee

Washington, Feb. 13.-W. B.
Mayo, chief engineer officer for
Henry Ford, notified the house
military committee today that the
Detroit manufacturer would de-
cline to modify his proposal for
the lease and purchase of the gov
ernment's properties at Muscle
Shoals, Ala.
Mr.. Mayo, appearing as the per-
sonally authorized spokesman Of
Mr.. Ford, was questioned at
length by members of the commit
tee which is conducting a hearing
on the Ford offer.
Name Not Decided
Chairman Kahn at the outset
asked whether Mr.. Ford, in the
event his offer was accepted,
would agree to a fixed capitaliza-
ton for the company he would
create to operate the Muscle
Shods work.
"I don't think he is determin-
ed" Mr.. Mayo said, but the cap
ital would be sufficient"
Mr.. Mayo said the manufactur-
er had not determined whether
the company would operate under
Mr.. Ford's name or some other
designation.
Asked by the chairman II Mr..
Ford would manufacture fertiliz-
er at loss, Mr.. Mayo testified
that "it would necessarily follow
that as a natural consequence, a
company would not continue to
work at loss" He added that in
the event the fertilizer plant prov
ed improbable changes would be
made to make the business pay
and that Mr.. Ford would do what
ever he could to produce cheap
fertilizer.
Small Profit Plan
The witness said that Mr.. Ford
did not expect to make a profit
which would justify him in paying
more than per cent interest on
the money to be spent by the gov
ernment in completing the con-
struction work on the dams.

Last year there were a number OF
people who came as guests to the
finest programs Of the year, and did
not take out membership cards. The
club cannot be supported in this way
and most of the womens clubs make
the above ruling.
Any one who is not now member
OF the club and wishes to join should
make her application to Mrs. II. S.

Hugh Walpole is to lecture before the
club. The subject will be Books and

be some on Wednesday, Friday and
