eyentiul one aside from one exciting in
cldent. lhIs was when the farmers par.
ty, representing tie Opposition, in the

sought unavaijingly to induce the Govern
meut to liberate imprisoned Republican
members of the Chambers so as TO enable
the Republican Party to hold a meeting
and discuss It's full policy. This proposal
o evoked a brief but SoneWh, heated
debate, which showed that the Govern
ment had not the slightest intention to
recede from its present attitude to-
wards the Republicans. Mr.. Michael
Hayes was unanimously chosen speak
err of the Dsil. Deputy Geary, leader
of the Farmers Party, in urging the
Liberation of cannon De Valera and
the other Republicans under arrest.
argued that A Republicans had been
elected 10 the Dali by the people and that
they should at least be given the oppOr-
tunity to get together in order to deter
mine whether they would obey the rule
of the majority and adopt constitutional
methods. Mr.. Wilson, also of the farm

prisoners ana argue against release.
Then Mr.. Cosgrave spoke. In quiet
tones he began by saying that the
present was not the proper time to
raise such a question. He also re-
vealed the fact that the Government
was aware Of a visit by Republicans to
certain members Of the Dali to have the
question Of the release of prisoners and
the question of the abolition of the oath
raised in the Chamber. The country,
Mr.. CoSgrave continued, had given its
verdict. The Government had done every
thing to meet the Republicans a year
9 and thereby had brought the treaty
into jeopardy and to the edge of an
abyss, yet homes of members of the
Government were burned and their IA
miles shot. With increasing warmth
the Premier declared that the Govern
ment would not yield to s~entimentalism
in favour of men who had done their
utmost and failed and now hoped for
positions as Generals or Presidents. lie
pointed out there were only Is members
of the A members of the Dali in gaol and
asked what the Others were doin~. He
added that there must be evidence of a
real change of heart on the part of
the Republicans before the Government
would change its tactics. Throughout
Mr.. Cosgrave had the House with him
and no division was requested. The
House adjourned without further Incl
dent. 1t will reassemble tomorrow af-
~ternoon, when the President will nomi-
nate his cabinet and a committee will
be elected to choose ministers, not mem
bers of the cabinet, who evil be directly

Mrs. Collins said: Tt was with deep regret that l learned of the serious illness in the home of your oracle. and I hope for her speedy r-ct cry. I am very glad, indeed, to attend the meeting this afternoon. Just two years ago I had the pleasure of as sisting in reorganizing the Birming- ham camp, and since then I have taken a very great interest in it's affairs. l always look forward eagerly to reading the fraternal notes in the newspapers. and in that way l keep posted on what you are doing, and I find that members throughout the state enjoy and ap- preciate the Birmingham papers very mucn. want to congratulate our state supervising deputy on the re- markable growth of the society. and I note with pleasure that your dis trict deputy, Cora E. Chambers, led the state in the membership cam paign. l have been told that a good deputy is born and not made, so I think you are very fortunate in hav- ing these two good workers.
 Florence, Clanton and Fort Payne have already gone over the top in the membership campaign, March to March, and we expect several others before the finish. Birm 1ngham must surely not be left behind, and only ten more members are needed before the quota is reached.''
