Additional Work For Judges

The advent of third candidate will
place additional burdens on the jud-
ges of election, and probably necessi-
tate additional instructions by the
counsel to the Supervisors of Elec-
ton. The voters have never before
been called upon to make two marks
on the ballot for the same office. and
unless they, too, are instructed neg
lect to comply with this provision in
the law may be prejudicial to the
chances of the candidates who would
benefit in the event of none receiving
majority of all the votes cast.
There is always a possibility of the
lowest man, after being dropped, be-
ing obliged to transfer his votes to the
second choice, and the candidate re-
ceiving the most of these would win
out. The law is mandatory as to this.

VALERA AGREEMENT UP

Special Cable to THE New YORK HERALD.
Copyright, 1929, bv THE New YORK HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau.
London, May 81.
The Full conference of the sigma
tories Of the Irish Free State treaty
met at 10 Downing street this eve-
ming with Mr.. Lloyd George. who de-
layed, his weekend at Chequers Court
to preside. There will be another ses-
SION tomorrow. No statement was
issued, but THE NEW YORK HERALD
correspondent was informed that the
discussion in no way impaired the con-
fidence repeatedly expressed by the
British in the sincere desire Of Michael
Collins and Arthur Griffith to adhere to
the spirit of the treaty.
There appears, however, to be some
divergence of opinion regarding the
legal Interpretation of the terms of
the Collins-De Valera agreement, es-
pecially those affecting the election.
The British are inclined to feel that
the agreement curtails freedom and
that the plans for an election mini
mize the essence and the spirit OF the
Free State act.
At the same time the Irish are trying
to get satisfaction as to Ulster. Prob
ably this question will be gone into
thoroughly tomorrow.
Mr.. Collins arrived this morning, and
after meeting with Mr.. Griffith saw
Winston Churchill. the Colonial Secre-
tary, at the Colonial office. He drove
there in his own car with his fiancee,
Kitty Herman. who Immediately drove
away. Mr.. Collins remained nearly two
hours and later conferred half an hour
with Mr.. Lloyd George. Mr.. Griffith join
ing them. The British signatories then
met before the full conference.
The Irish are insisting that they have
been loyal to the terms of the treaty,
trying to convince the British that coali-
ton will be to the best interests of the
Irish Free State. The main feature Of
that coalition that causes British
anxiety Is the five to four ratio repre-
sentation in the Dali Eireann of the pro
and anti-treaty forces The text of the
pact has been placed before the British
and explained in detail. The fact that
the Prime Minister is going to Chequers
Court and not attending to-morrow's
meeting is regarded as a good augury.

affairs Strengthened Out TO make =

Considerable significance may be at

by an American authority close TO the
proceedings OF the international Bank
ing Commission. The bankers are meet

Provisions of Agreement.

The informal agreement entered into
by Minister Hermes and Sir John Brad
bury during the German Finance Minis
ter's conversations at Paris and which
Will serve as a basis for the German
note essentially contains promises Of
the stoppage OF currency initiation and
oudgetary and administrative economy
The question of levying new taxes Is
temporarily left in abeyance, as the
Government hopes to adopt other re-
forms.
1t was said after to-day's Cabinet ses-
sion that new levies would prove doubt
ful sources OF added revenue, and that
unless Germany was given tangible aid
from abroad in the form of loan even
new tax laws would not suffice to save
the situation
With the exception of Chancellor
Wirth. virtually every member of the
Cabinet as well as President Ebert
approved of DIR. Hermes' procedure at
Paris. The Chancellor's apprehensions
are said to have been provoked by the
Finance Minister'S suggestion that new
taxes might be raised
Subsequently the Chancelor's fears
were partly allayed. The German note
will set forth that the force majeure
ieSei Ndlion was more IN lne nature Oh
a symbolism and that Germany prefers
to have the Allies know that an interna-
tional loan, after all, is the crux OF
the situation growing out Of the Repara-
tions Commissions demands for May 81
The Chancellor and the Minister of
Finance will open the debate on the
note in the Reichstag Monday. after
which the coalition party leaders will
announce their approval of the Govern
ment's course. The note will be for
warded to Paris Tuesday.
