irish FREE STATE
is INAUGURATED
Ceremony Very Simple and Un-
marred by Hostile Demon
strations From Rebels
HEALEY GOVERNOR GENERAL
Only Two Of Original Signers OF
Treaty Present; TWO Dead and One
In Jall-Labor Party Explains
Its Position

Dublin.-Inauguratio of the Irish
Free State as one of the Dominions
Of the British Empire has taken place.
marred by hostile demonstrations
from the Republican minority.
The oath was administered to Tim
othy Healy as Governor General by
the Lord Chief Justice. at Mr.. Healy's
residence in Chaelizod, on the Liffey,
three miles west of Dublin, and after
ward the new Governor General ad-
ministered the oath to Prof. Michael
Hayes as Speaker of the Dali.
There were no crowds outside the
Parliament house when the Dali met.
The ministers and others connected
with the Government made their way
to the Parliament chamber by pri-
vate entrance from the adjoining gov
ernment offices, and no visitors were
admitted.
The form of the oath of allegiance
was primarily to the constitution Of
the Irish Free State and then to King
George as the head Of the peoples
forming the British Commonwealth.
When the ceremony was completed
Prof Hayes was reelected Speaker
and Mr.. Cosgrave President of the
Cabinet.
Only two OF the five Irish sigma
tories OF the treaty, Eamon U. Duggan
and George Gavan Duffy, took the
oath. OF the others, Arthur Griffith
and Michael Collins are dead, and
Robert c. Barton is in Jail as a rebel.
The Labor party authorized itr
.leadeT to make a statement explain
ing its acceptance OF the oath The
statement said the Laborites were
merely following the tactics of the
political parties of the workers in all
other countries, whether monarchical
or republican. The oath they looked
upon as implying no obligation other
than the obligation resting upon any
person in accepting the principle OF
citizenship.

SEIZE TURKISH
CUSTOMS HOUSE
British Tro ps Act When Kem-
aIistS Take Passports From
Armenian Refugees
APPEAL MADE BY THE POPE
Moslems Defy Italian Order, and Re.
fuse to Allow Embarkation of Ref
ugees On French Steamship
Chaotic Conditions Prevail.

Constantinople. - Following the ac-
ton OF the Kemalist police in confs-
eating the passports of 100 Arme-
mans as they were about to board
ship, British troops took possession
of the customs house and armed with
machine guns, protected the embarka
tions of the refugees.
The Turkish police prevented the
embarkation of refugees on a French
steamship at Samsun, on the Black
sea coast of Asia Minor, despite per
mission granted by the Italian author
tiles there.
Lausanne. - Representations were
made to the Near East conference by
the Holy See on behalf OF the Con
stantinople Christians Monsignor
Maglione, the nuncio of the Catholic
church in Switzerland, presented a
communication to the president of
the conference asking that prompt
and efficacious methods be adopted
to protect the various Christian pop
ulatiOn of Constantinople, whose sit
uation, the communication stated,
had become most alarming.
Pope Plus appeal for the protec-
tion of the Christian minorities in
Constantinople brought an immediate
response from Ismet Pasha, head of
the Turkish peace delegation.
Ismet declared the situation OF the
Christians in Constantinople was not
such as to cause uneasiness, and
charged the Greeks with the circula-
tion OF alarming reports in order tc
influence the Lausanne negotiations
in favor of Greece.
Advices from other sources, includ-
ing those Of American origin, indicate
that chaotic conditions prevail in the
interior of Turkey, with constant
pressure brought to bear upon the
Christians, especially Greeks and Ar
menians, to leave Turkey American
mail advices from Smyrna confirm re-
ports that all the British have receiv-
ed instructions to quit Smyrna, where
the relief work is continuing in the
hands of Americans.

Lausanne. - Ambassador Richard
Washburn Child, Americas observ-
ing delegate at the Near East confer
ence, declared on behalf of America
that this country wished the right to
send warships anywhere it desired
and demanded the complete freedom

dor served notice that American war
ships should be in a position to go
anywhere American citizens might be.

sian plan for the Dardanelles.

DEMAND CONTROL OF
THE DARDANELLES
Near East Conference Thrown
Into CONSERVATION by Rus
sian-Turkish Requests

Lausanne. - Making common cause
Of their demands, the Russians and
Turks threw bombshell into the
Near East peace conference when
they formally asked that the Turkish
straits be closed to all warships ex
cept Turkish, and that the Dardan-
elles be fortified by the Turks as they
were before the great war.
The demand was voiced by George
Tchitcherin, head of the Russian So
Wet delegation. Ismet Pasha, leader
of the Turkish ENJOYS, followed, say
ing that Russia's declaration was en-
tirely satisfactory to the Turks
The conference was thrown into
CONSERVATION for there had been evi-
dence that the Turks and Russians
were drifting apart and would not ex-
ecute their threat to form a bloc
against the allies.
Lord Curzon, head of the British
delegation, and Eleutherios Venizelos
head of the Greek ENJOYS, left the
meeting without speaking Both were
most pessimistic over the develop
ments.
BY pooling their demands, the
Turks and Russians threaten to pre-
cipitate a deadlock of the straits ques-
] tion Immediately.
The American delegations of OBJ
servers, headed by Richard Washburn
Child, American ambassador to Italy,
is supporting the allied viewpoint.
This viewpoint is as follows:
Turkish straits shall be neutralized
and shall be open to ships of all
classes belonging to all nations The
control of the straits shall be vested
in an international commission ap-
pointed by the League of Nations.
