OF Rear Admiral Mexican, who would use

Il believe that the above disposition

1t is further my opinion that using them

tween the northwest point of Newfound-
land and Labrador, have by process OF
nature been gradually filling up for a
number Of years. Now this narrow pas
sage of the sea is the gateway through
which the ice foes from the Arctic regions
find their way along The coast of Canada
to the Gulf of ST. Lawrence and adjacent
waters and through its cooling effects on
the atmosphere cause severity of winter
in southeastern Canada, the New Eng
land and Middle Atlantic states and in
fact largely influence climate conditions
throughout the entire eastern part of our
country.
Now il this passage we're entirely OBJ
structed, ice would be diverted along the
northern coast of Newfoundland to the
east and would be borne away from our
shores. In these regions then the winter
weather would be much less severe and
the winter season would be much short
or. destructive frosts and unhealthfui
togs would be practically eliminated and
climatic conditions much more desirable"
1t was suggested by an English engi-
neer before the great war began that the
obstruction of this Labrador Strait would
be of vast economic value and il was
stated that the cost of the work would
be comparatively very small. since the
action Of the ice itself and water had

There is much speculation on

the Russians will accept in such a

RIVAL IRISH FORCES
ARGUE ON TRUCE TO
HOLD UNTIL MONDAY

Dublin, May 4.-(By A. P)-The
peace conference between the rival
factions in Ireland met today and de-
cided upon truce between the rival
army forces, beginning four o'clock
this afternoon and lasting until the
same time next Monday.
The conference was a most friendly
one, nd the fact that it was prolonged
is taken here to point to the arrange
ment of plan for unity which the
Dali Eireann can accept tomorrow. If
any such agreement is reached it is
believed to mean an Improvement in
the position of canon DeNalera and
his followers, who would be given a
chance to share in the portfolios of
the Dali cabinet. Likewise the dissid-
ent army supporting the DeNaleraites
would coalesce with the official army
general headquarters anG it's generals
reunited body.
Moreover, DeNalera's persistent
protest against June elections would
be met, for the new parliament to de-
bate the constitution would be elect
ed without contests, labor being given
a due share in the new body. This,
instead of displacing the dali in June,
would give it new lease Of life dur
ing the transition period (which how
ever, must end before next December
since the Anglo-Irish peace treaty
prescribnes that Free State elections
shall be held within II months of the
signature of the treaty.
These concessions already have been
virtually secured to DeValera by the
document agreed TO by Michael Col
Inns and Richard Mulchay as the ba-
sis for peace. The important point Of
difficulty concerns the area of the
new parliaments jurisdiction and
raises the whole partition question.
The rival military chiefs had no
difficulty today in arranging the
truce. which suspends hostilities. in
Guiding acts of aggression against per-
son or property and virtually stopping
recruiting by either force.

There was a heated colloquoy be-
