ruary to decide between De Valera and Collins some of the Ulster pre- mler's claims are sure to be chal- lenged.
 No Concessions In Ulster
 It was all along stated to be the root and principle of the London treaty that if Ulster stayed out she should receive none of the conces- sions won by the south. Sir James recent speech is taken by some Sim teiners greatly to modify this notion and to indicate the possibility in his mind of what would really amount to two separate and equal dominions in Ireland, a result which would be dis approved by Irish nationalist opinion generally.
 Some difficulty arises from the necessity of meeting the criticisms of the extremists on each side. The req sponsible ministers both in Dublin ana Belfast are mainly concerned With the task of maintaining public order and encouraging the flow of trade. The agreement helps them in both respects and is welcomed by the majority of people as a step on the road to eventual unity of the north and south of terms acceptable and ad- vantageous to both.

PROTECTION ASKED
 FOR J. 5. INDUSTRY
National Assn. Of Manufacturers
 Head Urges Tariff

Washington, Jan. 30. - Enactmen
 at the earliest practicable moment o1
 tariff legislation to afford American
 manufacturers that protection with
 out which they Cannot weather the
 storm of foreign competition" and te
 provide an American valuation basis for import duties was urged by John E. Edgerton, president of the nation
 al association of manufacturers in an
 address here today at the opening of
 the associations tariff convention.
 The meeting, Mir. Edgerton said was called for the purpose giving the most effective expression to the declared will of the associations
 membership in favor of that pro-
 gram, as shown in recent referen- dunn vote.
 Arguing in favor of the American valuation plan, he declared the gov ernment had the same right to fix the basis of it's tariff assessments as it did the assessment rates themselves Asserting that the lament" that the adoption of the plan would mean gov ernment profit fixing, which he said, came largely from the importing in terests, had mo foundation in reason" the speaker continued:
 Tn my own opinion the genesis of the opposition to this American val uation principal of valuation lies in the fear of the discovery by the pub lie of the favorite abiding place of abnormal profits. Let him who shouts the doctrine that the American consumer is entitled to as low prices as those in other countries point out any instances wherein the American public has shared the advantages of cheaply imported commodities Ar ticles of merchandise may be pur- chased abroad at low prices and im- ported on European valuation, but they are sold to consumers in this country on an American valuation and that valuation is determined by the cost of manufacturing and mar keting the same commodities by Am srican manufacturers. The moral is, | hat occupants of glass houses should | not too often indulge their impulses to throw stones."

BRITISH FASTENING
 TROOPS DEPARTURE
Evacuation Of Ireland Being Carried Out Rapidly

Dublin, Jan. 30. - (By Associated Press)--British evacuation of Ireland
 is proceeding more speedily than was
 anticipated.
 Each day sees a large batch oi troops leave Dublin and other ports
 Departure of the Dublin garrison is
 due to begin this week and the news
 papers are speculating a s to how the vacated barracks will be used. It is suggested they may be employed to relieve the housing shortage. Five large barracks will be available in
 Dublin and it is argued that at a com
 paratively small expenditure they
 may be converted into workmen's
 dwellings,.
 Throughout Ireland, similar build
 ings are falling under control of the new Irish government and some may be needed for the new Irish army all though nothing has yet been decided in regard to the size of that body. 1t is taken for granted that it will be established promptly and green uni forms are being manufactured in Dublin on a large scale.
 People Unmoved
 It is noteworthy that the evacuation of the British has occurred every where without manifestation what ever from the people; there has been no sign either of popular rejoicing or regret. The task is now entirely com mitted to the provisional government and the republican army has acted energetically in parts of Tipperary where the lawless element seemed about to get out of hand. Martial law was proclaimed and serious penalties threatened for the unauthorized car rying of arms. The army authorities even imposed rigid curfeW law com polling everybody to remain indoors after 8 o'clock in the evening. People who bitterly resented the British cur few law as d mark of subjugation, | have welcomed the republican curfew as one imposed by their own repre- se"to tives for the protection of the public.
 Although the evacuation of British troops is to be complete it is only rom southern Ireland. For the pur poses of the treaty in this respect 1orthern Ireland counts as though it were England and accordingly large bodies of troops are fulfilling the promise to evacuate simply by march ng across the border into Ulster.
 The announcement by Premier Sir James Craig in Belfast that the Brit sh government had promised him it would leave 12 battalions in northern reland is regarded suspiciously in Sim Tein quarters. During the Dali discussion of the treaty this disposition of troops was one of the most frequent points made by Ramon De Valeras' supporters against the igners of the pact.
 Michael Collins, head of the pro- isional government has given out othing in explanation of his recent greement with Sir James. which is welcomed on general grounds, pro- ided it does not mean more than ap- ears on surface, but the Ulster pre- oier's account of the agreement is ertain to be used by the Sim Fein arty opposed to Collins in an at empt to prove that he has assented 0 wider form of partition than outhern Ireland is prepared to admit. t was inevitable that Sir James hould make the most of the terms q seeking to secure assent to them 'om the extremists in his own parlia- 1ent but when the executive commit ee of the Sim Fein meets on Feb

HEARING ON MARCH 13.
Supreme Court Will Hear Arguments
 Concerning Connecticut Cases.

Washington, Jan. 3O.--The supreme court today advanced to March Is the hearing in an appeal brought by the State of Connecticut to determine whether it can prosecute in it's own state courts or in the federal courts cases involving alleged violations of the laws of the United States.
 The state sought in it's own courts to prosecute Thomas McAliffe, a federal enforcement officer, on the charge of having accepted bribes to influence his official conduct in cases arising under prohibition laws. The United States district court for Con- necticut. caused the case to be trans ferred to it and subsequently quashed the proceedings. A number of ma terial witnesses whose testimony is desired by the state are being detained in the Hartford county jail and for that reason among others, the state urged a prompt disposal of the case.
