IRISH MUST ENDORSE
GOVERNMENT, REPORT

LONDON, Feb 6.-Some Dublin cor
respondents of London newspapers
say the provisional Irish government
must obtain endorsement from the
people through general election be
fore it can solve the acute problems
before it.
If an election in southern Ireland
should result in the return of a sub
stantial majority of free state candf-
dates, Premier Craig of Ulster might
agree to a conference on the boundary
question, the correspondents say.
The provisional government has as
yet failed to establish its authority in
any striking fashion, the London
Times says.
Disorder and lawlessness is in
creasing in western and southern Ire
land" the newspaper adds, and the
extremists are gaining by the delay
The political bolshevik character OF
the railroad strike is notorious.
The country is disappointed with
the failure of the provisional admin
istration to make broad and swift de
cisions and to adopt vigorous action
against the railway men, and matters
are not likely to mend until the gov
eminent obtained vote of confidence
from the people"

CALLS 1921 MEASURE
&c. 0.P, GERRY MANDER"

FRANKLIN, Ind, Feb. 6.-Argu-
ments in the suit seeking to set aside
the legislative apportionment made by
the last Republican legislature were
made in the Johnson circuit court
today. The attack on the law made
by William A. Bridges, plaintiff, is
that the 1921 law is a Republican
gerrymander designed to give the Re
publicans control of the 1923 state
legislature. Bridges suit charged Il
wanton disregard and fragrant con-
tempt for the constitution in the laws
creation of new legislative districts.
Sumner kenner, assistant attorney
general, defending the suit. denied an
unfair appOrtionment. asserting that
if the 1921 law is unconstitutional,
there would be no law for appOrtior-
ment The 1915 law, which Bridges
claims would be effected, was said by
Kenner to be unconstitutional for the
same reason as the 1921 law, only that
the 1915 law was enacted by a Demo
cratic legislature.
