LONDON OPTIMISTIC
OVER IRISH PARLEY
Settlement Expected This
Afternoon as Premier and
Griffith Meet.
BY the Associa ted Press.

by the Associated Press.
LONDON, June 10.-After today's
meeting of the British signatories
Of the Anglo-Irish treaty. it was
stated that Arthur Griffith, president
of the dali eireann, would meet
Prime Minister Lloyd George this
settlement of the questions at issue
would be reached.
According to this arrangement, Mr.
Griffith went to Downing street at
pm. He was accompanied by Hugh
Kennedy, legal adviser to the pro-
visional government. and Kelvin
OHiggins, the dali minister of eco
nomic affairs. With Mr.. Lloyd George
were Winston Churchill. the colonial
secretary, and Sir Gordon Hewart,
the lord chief justice.
SO much optimism regarding the
progress of the negotiations is felt
in government quarters that it is be-
lieved that Colonial Secretary Church.
i'll will be able to make his statement
on the position next Monday, when
the house of commons reaSsembles
after its Whitsuntide recess.
Only Technical Points Left.
The main questions which created
difficulties when the draft of the
Irish constitution was first submit
ted are now understood to have been
settled satisfactorily. with the tech
nical matters still under examination
on a fair way to adjustment.
The Ulster frontier trouble has
been smoothed away. temporarily at
least. and Michael Collins speech in
Dublin last night is taken here as an
Indication that the southern leaders
are determined to avoid anything
likely to keep the wound open. Moth
ing further has been heard from Col
Inns report over the occupation of
Pettigoe by the military, and it is
inferred that the British government
has given assurances acceptable to
Dublin.
Latest reports tend to confirm that
the Belleek operation was bloodlesS,
as claimed by the government. no
trace of any republican loss having
been discovered. This has apparent
ly quieted some of the anxieties in
Dublin, where trouble on the frontier
believed its continuance would have
the worst effect on conditions in
Belfast
Would Avert Partition.
The Daily Nails Dublin correspon-
dent understa nds that if it were ar
ranged thai the British troops would
hold the border temporarily. replacing
the Ulster special constables. all the
Irish republican army regulars would
be withdrawn from that neighbor-
hood. Such an announcement, he
says, is favored in the more impor-
tant southern circles
Mr.. Collins speech at last nights
Mansion House meeting apparently
was intended as partial outline of
the future policy of the south toward
the north. To avert permanent par
tition is obviously one of its most
| important aims. Mr. Collins. among
other things advocated a conciliatory
attitude toward those northerners
who. while preferring their own To-
cal government, did not wish perma-
nent separation from the south.
I'VE must conciliate the element
capable of conciliation, not force
| everybody to fight u.s. he said.

CH|LDREN'S BOARD
CHANGE PROPOSED
Appointment by Commission
ers Advised in Industrial
Home Dispute.

Belief that the power of appointing
members of the board of children's
guardians by the judges of the police
and criminal courts should be trans
ferred to the Commissioners of the Dis
trict is expressed by Corporation Coun-
sci F. H. Stephens in an opinion on the
control of the board made public at the
District building today.
This injects a new angle into the
ment ascribed to the board of children's
guardians to close the Industrial Home
School by farming out" its residents to
private families before July /.
Duties of this character" Mr..
Stephens maintains are usually distaste-
full to the members of the judiciary as
not involving legal functions in any re-
spect. The judges of the Supreme Court
of the District of Columbia, not very
lcng ago, requested that they be re
lieved of the duty of appointment of
members of the board of education. The
members of the board of charities tWho
powers) are appointed by the President
by and with the advice of the Senate.
Duty for Commissioners.
This is another duty that should be
transferred to the Commissioners of the
District of Columbia. After the lapse of
nearly a quarter of a century the Pres
ident of the United States should not
be asked nor expected to devote any
of his time to a purely local matter of
this character.
An investigating committee of the
board of charities. which has been
conducting an inquiry into the types
of homes where children We're sent
by the board of childrens guardians
after having been taken from the In
dustrial Home School, met today at
the District building to draw up
report.
The meeting was under the chair
manship of Mrs Whitman Cross. and
no details were made public regard
ing the report. 1t is expected the
report will be submitted to the board
and its contents will be made pupilc
the early part of next week.
Corporation Counsel stephens. In
his opinion, forwarded to the Com
missioners, gives all the data at the
command of the District authorities
having a bearing on the clouded
noint: ITO whom are the board of
children's guardians responsible and
who can direct the movements OF
that board"
Origin of Power.
Mr.. Stephen points out that the
board was created by the act of
July 26. 1892. giving the judges of
the Police Court and the Judge hold

the power of appointing the board.

BILL WOULD CURB
ELECTION EXPENSE
Measure Limits Senators to
$4,000, Representatives
to $4,000.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Sweeping regulations for publicity
of campaign contributions are pro-
vided for in a bill introduced today
by Chairman Andrews of the House
committee on Election of President
Vice President and members of Con-
gress.
While the bill makes no attempt to
regulate primary expenditures In view
of the decision of the Supreme Court
in the Newberry case that such regu-
lation came within the province of
the states, it would limit expenditures
by candidates for the Senate to S1e,-
900 and candidates for the house to
$1,000. and stipulates that no candi-
date shall promise any man political
job in exchange for his support
Publishing of Contributions.
The name of every person contribut-
ing $100 or more would be published.
The bill provides that reports shall
be made by the national committees
of all political parties, congressional
campaign committees land all COM
mittees, associations or organizations
of every nature. kind and description
for whatever purpose created, organ
zed or Incorporated, or any subsid-
iary thereof, which shall in two or
more states influence the result or
attempt to influence the result of an
election at which representatives in
Congress are to be elected
Most Drastic Provision.
What is regarded by advocates of
the bill as a drastic provision pro-
vides that every person. firm. asso-
citation. except political committees
as already provided for, that shall
expend or promise any sum of money
or any other thing of value amount
ing to $50 or more for the purpose
of influencing or controlling, in two
or more states, the result of an cleo
tion of senator or representative. un-
less he or she shall contribute the
same to a political committee, shall
file a statement of the same under
oath with the clerk of the House of
Representatives.
1t was explained that this would
give publicity to individual contribu-
tions not made through political COM
mjttees and would help to account
for every dollar spent in any cam
paign.

NAVY BILL REPORT
TO SENATE URGES
$294,235,00O FUND
Increase of $42,965,000
Over Budget Voted by
House.
EXCLUDE APPROPRIATIONS
FOR NEW PACIFIC BASES
Committee Also Strikes Out Pro-
vision to Close Dahlgren
Proving Ground.

Appropriations of $294,235,0o0 are
made in the annual naval appropria-
ton bill as reported out today by the
Senate appropriations committee. This
represents a net increase of S42,s65.-
900 over the House bill. but $131.251.-
600 less than requested by the Navy
Department.
The bill is to be called up next
Monday by agreement to lay aside the
pending tariff bill temporarily. under
plans made by Senator Poindexter
republican. Washington, who will
have active charge of the naval
budget.
Much less opposition than usual
was anticipated in the Senate because
of the committees action in agree
ing with the House to an enlisted
personnel of $4,000 men and 1880
marines. but notice has been given
of objection to several of the com
mittee increases. Senator KING.
democrat, Utah is expected to move
to reduce the Marine Corps personnel
to 10000 men and to terminate ma
rine operations in Haiti and Santo
Domingo.
Chief Items Increased.
Principal increases in Navy appro-
priations noted in the committee re-
port were: Navy building. $4,000.
600; new aircraft. s6.537,000: pay.
26.o16.Ooo; engineering. s2.695,0o0,
and CONSTRUCTION and repair of ves
sells, s2,000,000.
The 100000 additional for con-
struCtion, the report said, was nee
essary in the interest of economy and
of the attainment and completion of
the plans of new ship construction
of the various classes of ships con-
templated by the arrangements made
in the recent conference on the linn
itation of naval armament and by the
additional plans of Congress and OF
the Navy Department consonant to
the terms of the arms limitation
treaty"
AS revised by the committee the
bill entails a large reduction Ia naval
expenditures, the appropriations for
the present fiscal year being S425,-
4s6, 900. or S119,000.000 more than the
bill reported today.
Naval Bases Fund Cut.
The bill carries no appropriations
requested ny tHe navy bcpdi tiiiths
for new Pacific coast naval bases, the
committee rejecting requests for
new torpedo destroyer base at San
Pedro, Calf: the proposed fleet base
at Alameda. Calf, and an aviation
base at Sand Point Wash. The COM
mittee, however, authorized $6S7,500
increases for the Puget sound and
Pearl harbor, Hawaii, navy yards. In
this connection the report said
these are the only naval bases which
the United States has on the Pacific
capable of properly receiving and ac-
communicating our largest armed and
equipped battleships."

Quick Mail Service.

BY flying at night the air mail
planes could get commercial paper
from either of the two big cities into
the other in time each morning for
the opening of banks and other estab-
lishments, and thus save a days In
terest over what would be the case
if they had been sent by train.
This night flying will constitute one
of the most radical steps in the his
tory of the air mall service. 1t is not
proposed to have the planes flying
west from Chicago to San Francisco
f1y at night, but they will be con-
fined. as at present, to daytime flying.
If the night sailing between New
York and Chicago should prove as
beneficial as expected, night flying
probably would be extended the
length of the transcontinental route.

New York. Nov. 22.-Georges Clem
enceau today prepared to rest after
having delivered, in his first address In
the United States. a warning to Ameri.
cans that German militarists were pre- .
pairing for another war.
In this address, at the Metropolitan
Opera House last night before an i'm.
i. mense audience. the war Premier Of
France voiced what he termed friendly
criticisms Of the United States for its
post war attitude. declaring that after
mixing its blood with that OF the Allies,
II had stepped out Of International af-
fairs leaving Europe in snarl.
He urged America to renew converse. I.
tions with France and Great Britain to
present a united front to Germany and
show that the terms of the Versailles
Treaty. including the payment of repa
rations, must be carried out.
He did not attempt to indicate how
America should again take up her hand
In international affairs. but said that
he might speak Of the League Of Ma.
tions as practical vehicle.
The next address which the Tiger
will make in his American tour wi,i
be In Boston. lie leaves for that city
tomorrow morning. About the only
item remaining on his official New York
appointment list is review Of the
1O6th Infantry in Brooklyn this after
noon.
Although he spoke feverently for
nearly nm hour and half last night.
the vigorous old man Of Europe showed
little fatigue.
Back and forth he paced in front Of
his rostrum on the Metropolitan stage.
The. only boundary imposed on his
rambles was a semi circle of floral
decorations.
Text Of Clemenceau Speech
NJ: Clemenceau said in part:
I'VE must have been in the midst
of q great crisis. say the greatest
crisis in events, because none OF us
can tell how long this crisis Is going to
last and whether it won't grow Mt
some time worse than 1t is now. Why
should peace be hard to live? Why
cannot we find common means for pre-.
serving peace:
II must say that this war was
brought about in the sequence Of events,
and now that it is over, we must do
something to preserve the peace. The
war caused the world to get in n situa.
tion which 1t had never been in before.
