Referendum on Ratification lndl-
Gated by Debate in
Dali.
LLOYD GEORGE IS ASSAILED
Mary McSwiney, In an lmpassioned
Attack on the Treaty, Calls the
Premier an Inscriptions Scoun-
drel-Fighting Man Talks.

Dublin, Dec. 22.-Indications multi
ply that Dali Eireann will refer the
treaty Of Lloyd George to vote Of the
of the Dali to office. Proponents of the
treaty have no fear of It's rejection by
the people.
w. p. Cosgrove, Sim Fem envoy,
while speaking in support of the
treaty, asked his opponents If they
were willing to abide by the vote of
the people.
Cries of "yes, yes" came from the
benches where the adherents of De
Valera sat.
"Such an agreement is possible"
said Cosgrove, "but, mind you, the
voice of the people shall be final"
Mary McSwiney, sister of the mar
tyred lord mayor of Cork, made an
impassioned attack on the treaty, as
sailing Lloyd George as IAN unscrupu-
lous scoundrel."
She remarked that this probably
would be her last chance to address
such an assembly. which was con-
strued to mean that she believes the
treaty will be ratified.
Il. J. Duggan, ore of the principal
aides of Michael Collins in charge OF
the Irish republican army, was prom
inent in the debate for few mo-
ments. Addressing De Valera, Dug
gan said:
This treaty gives almost every
thing Irish patriots have died for. No
combination of deputies can send the
Irish nation to its death by rejecting
this treaty.
1--WE did not evade our responsibility
the night we accepted the treaty. You
now must stand responsible to the
people,"
Earlier in the session G. Gavan Duff
fly, another signer Of the pact, told the
proceedings on the eventful night. he
said:
premier Lloyd George served all ul-
timatum upon us on December 4, and
he was not play acting. We had three
hours to decide, not enough time to
consult either Dali Eireann or the cab
met.
at was question Of either peace
or war. The situation was the most
critical of the long course Of the peace
negotiations.
1--WE were sent as peace delegates,
but were suddenly transformed into
representatives with the deciding
power of peace or war.
"If it was TO be war, then fresh
hordes of savages would be loosened
upon Ireland. We lost the republic
of Ireland to save the people Of Ire
land. 1t was with heavy heart that !
signed the pact.
1.-The pact gives Ireland power to
control her own government as well as
to resist military aggression. Our
government has the power to relegate
the king of England to outer dark
ness II 1t desires"

MACHINISTS TRIM
FOUNDRY M EN- IN
THIRD SPORT MEET
Large Crowd Watches T w o
Teams Fight Back and
Forth for Supremacy.

\ large crowd last night saw the
Machine shop group of the Stude-
baker corporation take three of the
five contests from the Foundry ag-
gregation and thereby win the third
of a series of 16 athletic carnivals to
be given this winter by the Stude-
baker employees under the superv-
sion Of Athletic Director Benny Al
len at the Y NJ. c. 4. gymnasium.
The Machine Shop organization
took the basketball game by a sub
stantial margin, Brady won the box
ing match, and the relay team nosed
out its rival. The Foundry won the
indoor baseball game and the tug
o-war
Employees of the local plant filled
the big gym and the rivalry between
the two sections was keen. The first
match was the indoor baseball game
which the Foundry took. 10 l.
Marks. pitching for the foundry team
had the machine shop batters be-
wildered and let them off with only
one run. Doc Foster Of Laporte.
handled the game in good fashion.
The Machine Shop got its revenge
i'm the second event by trimming the
foundry basketball five 33 to 4. Their
heavier net men outclassed their
lighter opponents allowing them only
two baskets. Pierce. forward of the
machine shop team, was the out
standing star Of the game, scoring
seven baskets The machine shop
displayed good work throughout.
In the third event the foundry
group came back and downed the
machine shop for a win in the tug
OF war. The contest was holly
fought, but the foundry team had the
weight in their favor and soon had
their opponents across the line.
Relay Decided Meet.
At the beginning of the fourth
match the count stood two TO one in
favor of the foundry. Brady of the
machine shop took on Crooks of the
foundry in a boxing match. The ma
chine shop fighter proved TOO much
for Crooks and knocked him out in
the second round after a hard drub-
bling.
This victory OF the machine shop
evened the count and at the begin
ming OF the relay race which was to
decide the meet, the large crowd $
interest was keyed to the highest
pitch.
The outcome of this race was in
doubt for a considerable length OF
time as the two teams were almost
evenly matched. the supporters of
the two departments were on their
feet constantly as one or the other
gained a slight advantage. After a
few moments Of thrilling racing the
machine shop nOsed out when link
beat his opponent in an exciting
finish.
Last nights meet was perhaps the
best held by the employees and the
interest manifested by the large
crowd, is a good indication of con-
tinued success for the athletic car
nivals.
