Meetings Along Border ir
boundary Dispute Marked
by Calm.
BY WILLIAM III. BRAYDEN.

Fly Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News
DUBLIN, September 27.-Meetings
this week along the Ulster border
warrant the inference that physical
fighting with the Free State is q
long way off.
Though the meetings were held
In districts in which the Free Staters
arc in the majority. there was no
Interference and each side, even N
the storm camps of Derby and En-
niskillen. demonstrated undisturbed d
by the other.
Strong feeling of both sides is
confined to speeches and there have
been no riotous incidents. Though
Ulster speakers express unwavering
determination to hold what they
have got, their speeches were not in
fammatory and threats of possible
violence came mostly from English
visiting members Of Parliament.
Good Legal Case Seen.
The Ulster government believes il
has a good legal case whatever the
boundary commission decides. and At
torrey General Richard Best hinted that
lawyers have discovered means of
staving off the loss of territory. In
Dublin Free State ministers are con-
fident and deny London press rumors
attributing to them a secret settle
ment with Sir James Craig.
They will make no move until the
British government passes the boun-
Diary bill and the Dali indorses it.
Then they will be ready to talk terms
with the north, and htey expect reali
zation of the inevitable will make Sir
James anxious for peaceful settle
ment, which all Irishmen on both
sides of the border desire.
Denounce Partition.
Republicans who have denounced
partition of any kind all along as a
blot on the treaty, criticize the Free
States handling of the situation, and
today De Valera's official organ says:

'Tf the people want to avoid . bloody
outbreak in Ulster. they must call
halt to MIR. Cosgrave and Mr.. Mulcahy
and demand the resignation OF all the
usurpers. The boundary problem and
partition, too. will settle themselves,
and that without shedding blood be-
tween two creeds in Ireland, when
the people stand as they stood in 1921
behind the republic and enabled Presi-
dent De Valera to speak for the unit
ed, determined and uncompromising
nation OF Ireland. saying to England:
Leave our shores: abandon your
claim to Ireland or any part of 1t; we
want our island and will make peace
for nothing else"
Free Staters, on the other hand, say
that listers unwillingness to join
the rest of Ireland is strengthened by
De Valera's doctrines.
