that he would not discuss the principle

Reject Prcmicr's Terms
On August 81 the Irish again reject
ed Lloyd Georges terms, but offered to
meet the Premier once more if he
would discuss government by consent
of the governed There was no reply
to this until September s, when De
Valera was invited to send delegates to
a conference at Inverness, Scotland on
that Ireland must remain within the
empire.
This invitation was accepted on Sep
TENDER 16, with the reservation that
Sim Fcin delegates must be regarded
as representatives of q separate state
This reservation almost wrecked the

explaining that if Ireland did not make
clear the status of her representatives
her position would be prejudiced.
Lloyd George was obdurate, and re-

basis of an Independent Ireland. On

reply that he accepted the original in

abandon any principles, adding: eve

Harding and Secretaries
To Debate Genoa Call
Officials Make No Comment
on InritatiOn to PaFfici-
pate in Economic PurIev

From The Trtbures Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, jar. 7. - President
Harding will confer with Secretary Of
State Hughes and Secretary Of Com
merce Hoover early next week TO de-
termine definitely whether the United
States will take an active or passive
part il, the forthcoming economic con-
ference st Genoa, Italy, in March. The
invitation from the powers to this gov
eminent vas received at the State De-
partmcnt to-day from American Ambas-
sador George Harvey, now at Cannes.
Responsible officials to-day declined
to make any comment on the possible
extent Of American participation in the
conference, although it is known that
at least an American observer will be
vised on all questions discussed.
There was keen interest in confer
ence circles over the calling of the
economic conference. The question that
is being most freely asked is TO what
extent the United States will accept
the invitation to attend
The general feeling is that America
cannot we'll afford to refuse to partici-
pate. but it is considered probable she
will go in conditionally. And it Is
not unlikely that she will insist on

before going to the help of Europe
The Administration. it is understood,
is divided on the question of partici-
pating in the conference. The Cabinet
discussed the subject for two hours
last Tuesday. At that time there was
nothing formal before it and no con-
clusion was reached.
The fact that Russia has been in
vited is one of the points causing this
government concern. The United
States has not recognized Soviet Rus
STA. And unless she changes her de-
clared intention Of the past there will
be no negotiations with unrecognized
Soviet Russia.
In arriving at decision the Admin
istration must take account of the sit
uation on Capitol Hill Administra-
ton critics in Congress will be quick
to say that the conference is a scheme
to get the United States to underwrite
Europe, thing which this country re-
fused in rejecting the League of Ma
tions. The question of attending the
conference is certain to become in
volved in the foreign debt refunding
bill which still is to be passed by the
Senate.

Reinsch Wants Japan to
Define Interests in China
Believes Situation Could Be
Cleared Up by Frank
Avowa! bv Toxic

DR.. Paul S. Reinsci,. former United
States Minister to China, speaking yes
to-day at a luncheon Of the Foreign
Policy Association at the Hotel Astor.
said he believed that if Japan should
be asked to answer truthfully if she
had any special interests in China
much would be done to clarity the pres
ent discussion between the two ASH
alic nations.
DR.. Reinsch pointed out that there
were two kinds of special interests
which foreign nation could have in
China, economic and political. China, :"
he said, welcomes the trader, but if
the trader has political motives behind
his establishment in China there is
bound to be fear on the part of China.
Japan has never defined what she
means by special INTERESTS Everything
indefinite generates suspicion and
fear
Japan, according TO DR.. Reinsch, in
sists that the Shantung Railroad be
run by a Japanese traffic manager
China cannot see just what is behind
this demand. DR.. Reinsch said that
China was a safe place for foreigners
and that during his years OF travel
through China he always found that
strangers were protected.
Other speakers were DR.. Sidrev l..
Gulick. lecturer at the Imperial Uni.
versity of Kyoto from 1907 to 1913, and

Morgan i. O'Bricn, member of the
American Committee for Relief in Ire

"This has been great step forward.

broad lines for the development Of its
resources. The Irish people are en-

to both countries concerned. The jubi-

Major Michael Kelly, Of the Irish
Veterans Association, was not certain
as to what the outcome OF the ratifi-
cation would be. He said: Eve don't
know what will transpirc after the
signing of the treaty ratification. 1t is
a critical time, and the ratification has
been fought bitterly. It is too early to
talk. 1t is difficult problem, and
don't know what the attitude of the
opponents will be. We will wait and
see who is in the Cabinet and who is
at the head
Judge Alfred ]. Tallcy, Of the Court
of General Sessions, said last night:
Il hope the ratification means peace.
If the Irish people are left to work
out their own destinies, in five years

will be begging the Irish nation TO

and the only notice Of motion is one
by the Speaker, Professor MacNcill
Affirming IN general terms Ireland S
independence and sovereign status for
which all sections of the Dali might
unanimously vote
The Dali held two sessions, but the
vote could not be reached in the fore
noon and adjournment was taken until
1880 p. M. The speaking was then re-
sumed.
Arthur Griffith made the final argu-
ment for the treaty and was frequently
interrupted by applause.
ne launched into tribute to Michael
Collins as "the man who won the war;
III my name s to go down into his
tory, want it associated with the
name of Michael Colins," he exclaimed.
Defending the treaty, Mr. Griffith
! said If the delegates were guilty of
treason against the republic let them
be tried for it. He termed tho point
regarding the oath "damnahlc hypoc-
risy,' calculated to cost the lives Of
thousands of 1rishmen.
Defies All Intimidation
Mr.. Griffith admitted that the treaty
had faults. but declared il was the be
that could have been drafted that
would have been acceptable to the
British government. He declared its
opponents were trying to reject the
treaty without giving the Irish people
Il chance He referred to Abraham
lincoln in his debate and said the
American martyred President used to
say he would always consult tho viii
elected him but those who opposed his
election.
Heatedly resenting repeated attempts
to interrupt him during his address,
Mr. Griffith cried:
There is no power in this junta to
intimi date me. any more than Dublin
Castle could"
Independent With Ratification
When the Dali resumed its sessions
al 1880 o'clock Speaker MacNcill. who
has strongly supported the treaty, gave
notice of a motion IN his own name,
reading as follows:
"That the Da | Eireann ai1irms that
Ireland is a sovereign nation. deriving
its eighty in all respects from
the will of the people OF Ireland; that
all the international relations Of Ire
land are governed on the part of Ire
land by that sovereign status, and all
facilit es and accommodation afforded
by Ireland to another state or country
arc subject TO the right of the irish
government to take care that the lib
erty and we'll being of the people q
Ireland are not endangered
The object of this motion was to as
sert the principle that ratification of
the treaty was in accordance with in
dependence.
Deputy O'Byrnc then spoke in oppo-
stion to the treaty and Patrick Bren-
nan, Of County Clare, in support OF it.
d. Ryan, Of Wexford, speaking in
opposition to the treaty, said he did
not believe the representative pubic
bodies of his constituency favored the
treaty, but at any rate they had no
better right to speak for the people
than he had. William Hayes, of Lin

Deputy O'Rourkc, of Roscommon, in
favor Of the treaty, said he was pre-
pared to vote for Mr. de Valcra's docu-
ment No. 2 in the interests of unity
He would have voted against the treaty
before Christmas, but since consulting
his people. including the ode hards, "
who saw no alternative but accordance
lie would vote for the treaty. because
he would not take responsibility for
war He would be just as pleased
however. if the treaty were defeated
and he had TO fight again for the re-
public, he declared.

next speaker. said the Southern Union

the republic, had called upon him to
vote in favor of the treaty: The treaty

power in Ireland. III his opinion, than

would vote against the treaty.
Joseph McGulness, OF Longford. who

support of the treaty He said he could

Luton. He declared they had gone
on their knees TO the President to Sc

DE Valera Denies Seeking Split
Mr. De Valera protested angrily
against this remark and Said the com
mittee had put to him an absolutely
impossible proposal. He declared the
same method was tried on him as was
tried in America. What he was asked
f do simply meant letting the Free
State come into existence and take root
and then trying to pull it up again.

Situation Remains Chaotic

DUBLIN. Jan: 7 (By The Asso-
Grated Press. The situation at the
adjournment of the Dali appeared to
remain chaotic. The Dahl will meet on
Monday and there is no disposition re-
vealed by De Naleva and his follow
ers to abandon the fractional struggle.
On the announcement of the vote
tonight. Mr.. De Valera Immediately
rose and declared that the Irish peo-
pie had established republic, and
until the Irish people in regular
manner disestablished the republic it
constitutionally went on. This would
be a sovereign body in the nation, to
which the nation looked for supreme
government, it was the executive I'M
til the people disestablished it.
Nobody was disposed to challenge
this proposition, for the general cpin-
ion all along had been that during
the transition period Ireland must
keep her representative assembly I'M
til the treaty was converted into an
act of parliament and the Irish would
have an opportunity to erect a legis
lature of the free state to replace the
Dall.
Michael Collins in quiet tones fol-
lowed De Valera He said he did not
regard the result in any spirit of tri-
umph. He claimed that the men rep
sponsible for taking over from the
British government control of the Irish
administration should get fair chance.
In every country what mattered most
was public order, and he appealed to
the other side to appoint joint COM
mittee of both sides to carry on the
government. This was greeted with
cheers
Mr.. Collins declared that President
De Valera held the same place in his
heart as ever.
Denounced by Mary MacSwiney
Then followed a violent speech by
Mary MacSwiney, denouncing the re-
SUIT as worse than the betrayal of Ire
land in the days of Castlereagh Wis
count Castlereagh, Marquis of London
derry, who was Chief Secretary for
Ireland in 1893, was instrumental in
carrying the union in 1900.
Mr.. de Valera rose again, supposedly
TO reply to Mr.. Collinss overture.
However, he took no notice of it, and
merely appealed to all his own sup
porters in the Dali to meet him at the
Mansion House tomorrow afternoon
at ] o'clock. This evidently hurt MIR.
Collins very much. but he quietly said:
If the visible presence of myself and
colleagues is so distasteful, there
might, at any rate, be some accommo-
dation between the parties for the pur-
pose of public order
Minister Burgess Immediately re-
torted: Il will take care that the disci-
pine of the army is preserved"
The assembly then separated, to meet
1T II o'clock Monday morning. No
a2eada for that. session are indicated.

 THIS YEAR
Forced to Abandon Po- lar Leap On Account of Unfavorable Ice
 Conditions.

Nome, Aus 30,-Capt. Raolo Amundsen, Arctic explorer, has definitely abandoned fer this year his plan for an airplane flight across the North Pole to Spitzbergen or Grants Land, but plans to hop off next spring it became known today with the arrival here of the coast guard cutter Bear from Point Barrow. Amundsen, who is now at Point Barrow, said the start he'd been delayed by unfavopable ice con- ditions and that the season ie too far advanced to permit any chances for success.
