MASTER BAKERS STRIKE IN
 TRANCE LASTED s5 HOURS

Paris. Dec. CBy the A. P.).-shS bread strike which began yesterday has collapsed. The master bakers informed the minister of agriculture today that the baking of bread would be resumed to-
 aorruw.
 The strike of the bakers had laSted twenty-five hours. Its collapse Is attrib- uted to the energetic attitude taken by the government, which had indicated it's intention to use army bakers to meet the crisis.
 The government took good care to e1- plain to the public that the price of flour had not varied to any extent since May, and that hence 1t was fighting againSt profteering. The government also en- deavored to show that the value of bak- cries had increased fabulously during the past few years.
 When the committee of the master bakers union visited the minister of agr- I culture today the minister was told that the bakers were prepared to listen to the appeal he made to the chamber of depu- | ties yesterday. The minister replied that he considered it his duty to receive the bakers committee but that he could noi discuss the situation thoroughly until | work was resumed in Paris and the sup ply of bread assured.
 | N. Cheron, the minister of agriculture l added that he always had favored a slid- | ing scale, by which the price Of bread
 would fiuctuate with that of four. Ths
 bakecs then agreed to abandon the lock. | out, and the five, hundred bakers who had
 speeded to Paris from various army cen. ters to bake bread had made their jour
 ney for nothing.

BRANDS VIOLATIONS OF THE
 18TH AMENDMENT SCANDALoUS

Washington, Dec S.-Representative Tinkham, republican, Massachusetts, made public today letter to President Harding commenting his reported inten- tion to refer in his message to congress to widespread disrespect for law as exempIified by defiance of the 18th amendment and suggesting that all parts of the constitution be enforced equally and impartially."
 with the greatest respect" Mir. link ham wrote, may I draw your attention to the fact that, whereas the 18th amendment is permissive in its authori- zation to congress to pass legislation to enforce it, the second section of the 14th amendment which comma hds congress to reduce representation in proportion to disfranchisement is mandatory and pre- seriptive, and is now scandalously and completely unenforced and nullified." Mir. .Tinkham asserted that with fla grant and widespread disfranchisement i established by indisputable evidence now before congress and by common knowl- edge and the second section of the 14tl
 amendment unenforced, the very tenure 1 of the office you hold and the representa- tion of the lower house of congress is 1 tainted with unconstitutionality."
 I Mir Tinkham suggested that the pres ] ident call attention of congress to its present unconstitutional composition"

DE VALERA REPLIES TO THE
 MANCHESTER GUARDIAN

Dublin. Dec. 3.-(By The A P.)-Ths Irish Republican Bulletin today con- tains a message from Esmonn De Va lera, replying to an article printed in the Manchester Guardian. which asserted that the Irish people had accepted the Irish treaty.
 The Irish electorate" says the De Valera message. did not decide for the Free State last December, and has never decided for it but it has unequiv- ocally decided for and ratified the TO- public at two general elections and maintained it's choice through three years of terrible suffering.
 T repeat my challenge: VIII the Eng fish government withdraw hs threat Of war and pledge itself to abide by the result of the free plebiscite the Irish people have taken to decide between d republic and the proposed Free State.
 Irish republicans have not opposed and will not oppose in arms, any deci- sion so reached. and we pledge ourselves to the world not to do so. Will your government give a similar pledge7 If not, why not?
 "That is the test by which all can judge whether there is or is not Englisfl dictation, and whether the Irish people are really free to decide as they please.

THREAT BY LEADER OF THE
 IRISH REPUBLICAN ARMY

Dublin. Dec 3.-(By The A. PA letter signed by Liam Lynch, chief of staff of the army council at general headquarters of the Irish republican army in Dublin, addressed to the speak CT of the provisional parliament, accus- es the parlianents army of violations of the recognized rules of warfare in the treatment of prisoners.
 Finally" says the letter in part "you are now pretending to try Irish repub- lican prisoners before your make-believe courts. You already have done to death five men after such mock ceremonials. You now presume to murder or trans- port soldiers who had brought Ireland victory when you traitors surrendered the republic
 1 Next to the members of your pro- visional government, every member of 1 your body who voted for this resolu- tion, by which you pretend to make le- 1 gal the murder of soldiers, is equally guilty. We therefore give you and eact | member. of your body due notice that
 unless your body recognizes the rules
 of warfare in the future, we shall adop very drastic measures to protect ouI forces"
 i A copy of the letter was sent to MT Johnson, the labor trader. with a GOV l ering note saying: "The continued par
 ticipation of your party in the proceed ings of this illegal parliament can b.
 construed by us only as international
 co-operating with the enemy forces il the movement of a number of our sol
 diers, a great proportion of whom ar drawn from the ranks of labor l MT. Johnson declined absolutely to say, anything with reference to the let ter today All the members of the pro
 visional government and their supporter are taking precautions against possi ble attack.

PRESIDENTIAL NOMINATIONS
 COME BEFORE SENATE TODAY

Washington, Doc 3.-Confrmatior Of upwards of thousand presidential nom nations will be the task of the senate on meeting tomorrow I | ten o'clock in the final shting of the extra session.
 Unlike the house which has no special business before it, the senate is ex- pected to work until close to 12 o'clock before adjourning sine die. The regu- lar session will begin at noon.
 Probably the only business transact ed i'll either the house or senate at the initial meeting will he the routine ap- pointment of a joint committee to go to the White House to notify the pres ident that the last session of the eTth congress has convened and that his | message is awaited.
 Republican senators made possible confirmation of at least a portion of 1 the nominations by voting in party cau- | GUS late yesterday to abandon complete | ly the Dyer anti-lynching bill against
 which the democrats had successfully flibustered for several days. Senator Underwood of Alabama, the democratic leader, was informed today of the de- cision of the republicans and in accord
 with promises made during the filibust- ,, CT let it be known that the democrats
 would offer no further obstruction. Foremost among the nominations to be taken up is that of Pierce Butler of Minnesota, to be an associate justice ot the supreme court succeeding William K. Day. Some opposition to confirmation of MT. Butler has been expressed but Senators Kellogg and Nelson of Minne-
 sota have said they expected no freat difficulty inasnuch as the nomination received an unanimously favorable re- port from the judiciary committee after
 inquiry into the objections.
 Hundreds of other nominations, in ciuding a large number of postmaster:
 and army appropriations are expected tt be approved by the senath without op
 position. The nomination of Walter L Cohen negro, of New Orleans, to b. controller of customs at New Orleans is expected to fail because Of the opposi
 lion of the Louisiana and several othe southern senators.
 Republican leaders had planned t , have the shipping bill passed last weel 2 by the house, reported to the senate to morrow but tine democratic fiilibustel prevented reference of the legislation t
 committee. It is expected to be report
 ed Tuesday and leaders plan to talk | it up Wednesd y.

Washington. Dec. G.-The campaign for government ownership Of postofficc build- ings throughout the country was renewed by Postmastrr General Work in his an nual report today :O congress.
 Not only would policy Of public own ersh;D relieve the government of much oc it's present housing congestion, the postmaster general said, but it also would mako for liuarcial economy since rentals cf more thar Sl2,Uo0,000 now bciES paid over annually without tangible return could be invested instead in property of a permanent value.
 Government owned buildings, he pointed oIi, arc free from taxation. while the government as lessee must pay enough rent to enable the landlord to meet his tax bills. In the same way he asserted that whereas the government could bor- row money "on practically per cent. basis to build postoffices, when it leases it pays a rental sufficient to permit the lessCr to borrow money at per cent, and in some cases as much as 10 per cent"
 Other legislation recommended by the postmaster general included passage oi the bill pending in the house to increase the interest rate on postal savings de ! posits from to per cent and the ratc = 1 3 1-2 per cent establishment of a system | of pensions for postal employees who have been in the service more than thirty years; reclassIfication of departments ] employees; a salary readjustment to per 1 init full pay for overtime; authorization 1 for motor vehicle rural mail routes uI | to sevenIy-five miles in length; ma!nte nance of guaranty fund derived iron assessments levied upon postal official for funds and property. to make goo, | losses from the failure of such official
