CRAIG HOPES FOR
PEACE IN ULSTER

Belfast, April 4.-(By A. P.)-Sir
James Craig. premier of Ulster speak
ing in the northern parliament today.
said the agreement signed in Ireland
last week was an earnest attempt TO
bring peace to the whole of Ireland.
He said the agreement would not sort
out the sheep from the goats. and If
the activities of the Irish republican
army ceased there would be peace in
Ulster
Sir James was hopeful that within a
year the Catholics would take their
seats in the northern parliament and
assist in solving it's problems. He said
he himself would not lead Ulster into
the free state parliament, because his
whole political career forbade such a
move.
Several members Of the parliament
criticized the agreement but there was
no attempt to force a division on the
subject.
