DE VALERA ATTACKS
PACT WITH ULSTER
His Organ Disputes Collins's
Right to Lift Boycott.

DUBLIN, Jan. Gothic newspaper
Irish RepabNo, organ Of the De Valera
followers, commenting on the Craig
Collins agreement, says:
Full comment on this agreement is
impossible until we know what is be-
hind 1t. One definite fact emerges. that
an order to stop the boycott on Belfast
goods has been made by tho Dali Gov
ernment without consulting the Dali
Eireann. and that ON the strength OF this
pledge, illegally given in London by Mr..
Collins. not as a Dali Minister but as a
Free State leader, for this valuable con-
crete concession there is no definite
quid pro quo on the part of Sir James
Craig-only the shadow of q conditional
promise about the reinstatem of ex-
PEELED workers In the Belfast district. a
hint about joint action on the railways
and the prisoner question and two
clauses. the first and the fourth, which
strangely enough imply that the six
counties are going to elect for partition.
'Sir James Craig's speech on January
81 seems to confirm the choice for par
tition, while drawing a sharp distinction
between those in the south. who have
gone with Britain and the British En-
pire,, the Free Staters, we suppose. and
the hotheads who wish for republlc--a
distinction which should give Mr.. Collins
cause to reflect upon some Of his
speeches at the Dali here, as elsewhere"

ture reparations payments Is unsatisfac-
tory. I'VE have been surfeited with
promises" says former Premier Clemen-
ceau's Echo National. THE Allies must
now give the Preparations Commission
a free hand"
'.As long as the creditors are not in
accord the debtor will avoid paying"
says Information, and Bon Soir follows
the same line. adding: "It is time Great
Britain realized that every financial
complaisance to Germany means another
sacrifice by France"
L'Action FrGncaLse finds that the Ger
man propositions omount to this: "A
loan of money to Germany instead OF
asking her TO pay"
The German proposition. according TO
the Temps, replace the definite schedule
fixed last year by a provisional arrange
ment without giving any guarantee that
the provisional arrangement will be
any better carried out than was the
other. Besides involving a great decep-
tion for France. the proposals would be
disadvantageous to Great Britain, since
the increase In deliveries in kind would
increase competition between German
and British manufacturers. There Is only
one remedy to the situation In sight. and
that is International operation OF
credits"

GERMANY'S OFFER
SCORNED BY FRANCE
New Reparations Proposals
No Promise to Pay but
Demand for Loan.

PARIS, Jan. 80 s(Associated Press) -
The Allied Preparations Commission de-
clded to-day to transmit Germany's
latest reparations proposals to the AL
lied Governments and await their de-
cision as to whether they will treat the
question with Germany themselves or
refer It back to the commission to
handle. The commission makes no
recommendations. 1t Is understood, but
merely recalls the agreement recently
reached at Cannes, providing for the
payment OF 31,ooo.0oO gold marks by
Germany every ten days. pending a de-
cison by the Allies on the whole repara-
tions issue.
The only comment in reparations
circles regarding the note from Germany
was an expression of regret that the
Germans did not state the exact length
Of time during which they desire free
dom from cash payments and the actual
amount of money they would be able to
pay this year.
A copy Of the note was given unoffi-
cially to Roland w. Boyden, the Ameri-
can unofficial representative on the COM
mission, for transmission to the United
States Government. as the commission Is
anxious to keep America in closest touch
with the current reparations situation.
The French press is practically unan-
imous in the opinion that the German

ITALY EXPECTS ALL

Ready to Welcome America

The Italian Government Is continuing
its preparations for the organization OF
the Genoa economic conference as IL all
the countries that have been invited. In
Guiding the United States and France,
had unqualifiedly announced their inten-
tions to be represented.
Prefect Ricci of Genoa. who came to
Rome to-day to confer regarding the
preliminary details In connection with
the conference. has requisitioned the
Royal Palace of the ancient Doses for
the sittings OF the conference. All the
leading hostelries of the city have been
notified that they must be ready to re-
ceive the various delegations.
1t is reported that the Russian dele
cation, headed by Nikolai Lenine, will
be accompanied by thirty servants and
Ave cooks. The Russians have elected
to stay at the Hotel Germania.
Thus far no reservations have been
made for the newspaper men. The AS
sociated Press correspondent was in
formed to-day by the Minister of For
eign Affairs that there probably would
be no hotel available for the journalists
and that an obsolete transatlantic liner
moored at one of the piers would be the
home Of the writer's during the confer
ence
Hope was expressed at the Ministry
of Foreign Affairs to-day that the United
States will be represented at the confer
ence. 1t was said to be the feeling in
political circles that without American
participation the conference would not
be u complete success.
The Italian Government has not yet
named it's delegates to Genoa, but prom
inently mentioned as possibilities are
Count Sforza, who recently was ap-
pointed Ambassador to France and who
is q veteran of many Supreme Council
meetings, and Senator Schanzer. who is

responsible for many of chc automobile

also is responsible for the first real at

week several British soldiers were

these attacks were just for spite. as the
