QUICK SUPPORT URGED.
London Press Wants Parliament ia
Meet at Once.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, January 1.-THE West
minister Gazette calls upon the Brit
ish government to assemble parlia-
ment as soon as possible. next week
at the latest, to give formal authority
to. the new Irish government. The
newspaper calls attention to the an
alogous position of Arthur Griffith s
provisional government until it re-
ceives this authority. and says the i'm
perial parliament should fulfill its
moral obligation and see the thing
through quickly.
"The free state. with its provisional
government. is at present an even
more shadowy entity than was the
Irish republic" the newspaper says.
There is urgent necessity to give II
definite legal status. particularly with
reference to maintenance OF order,
collection of taxes and expenditure of
public moneys. Until this is done, the
whole legal system will be reduced
to chaos, the executive acts, of f'every
member of the provisional govern
ment will be illegal, and judges be-
fore whom such acts may be chal-
lenged will be obliged to treat them
as illegal.
Some sort of order may be MAIN
tanned by direct physical force, but
certainly there can be no law until
the provisional government itself is
a lawful authority

; An agreement was understood to
have been. reached at a White H0uee
conference today on the rate. TO be
charged the American Relief Admin
istration by tha Shipping Board nOr
carrying. grain to- Rnssia, but, the
terms Of the agreement were not i'm
imedfately announced.
Participating in tbs conferences
with the President were Secretary
Hoover, swhp in nead Of the relief adj
ministrRtion. and Chadtmafa, Laslsep
and expsrts of tho Shipping Board
Mr.. ~Hoover's position had set forth
as q relief that government ships
should carry the grain purchased out
of the $4,000. 900 appropriation. made
by Congress-. at less than cost, so as
to save as much Of the appropriation
as possible for the purchase OF grain.
The. Shipping Board has contended
that this could not be done without
an executive order, and the confer
ence today was arranged to reconcile
the two views.
Grains for the starving and distress
ed people of Russia should be mil1ed.
prepared, and put up in small pack
ages for distribution there, Senator
France Of Marylond. suggested in a
letter to. Secretary Hoover, Of the
Of Commerce. Senator
France says that this will give work
to many Americans out Of work. and
besides there are no facilities In Rus
sia for preparing the grains for food.
