Southern Ireland, basing her position upon the treaty of 1921 which created her the Free State, claims the unden- iable right of a boundary dispute. England, in response to the demand appointed a commission, headed by Mr. Justic Feetham of South Africa to consider the troublous question. It is now apparent that England looked upon it only as a commission which would attempt, to adjust some dis- puted points in the boundary between the Free State and the North, while, the Free State apparently h'oped to gain Armanagh and Tyoone, and as much else as they .could. Northern Ireland refused to appoint a com- missioner, basing her refusal upon the point that she was not a party to the treaty of 1921, having voted her- self out of the union. When appealed to, the Judicial committee of the privy council decided that Ulster was not bound. However, the government deter- mined to carry their point, and a bill was drawn un which was intended to give the government power to appoint a commissioner for the North. The fate of the bill is unknown. It passed the house of commons, coming up for its second reading on 30 September. The Dail Eiranan, the Irish parlia- ment, passed it a few days ago. The bill was however , stopped in the House of Lords by the prorogation of parliament, pending the coming elec- tion. This is a very brief account of some of the phases of the Irish Boundary dispute which threatens England at this time, and over which they are seething in the throes of general elec- tion. The final outcome of the mat- ter of course depends upon the new parliament. Labor will of course sup- port the act of their first ministry in handling the situation, but it is doubt- ful if labor will find itself in a posi- tion to carry out any of their ambi- tious program. The liberals seem about at the point of dissolving the partner-? ship with the laborites, and threaten to seek glory in their own right. With- out the help of the cohorts of Lloyd George and Asquith, the Irish bill will probably slip out of the reluctant fingers of the labor minister, to be tabled for some time. The result then is problematical. At any cost though, union of some sort should be sought between the two rival factions. As it was pointed out yesterday, to legalize a complete sep- aration of the two countries will mean the putting off of a definite solution for many years. should investigate conditions and for-i mulate a plan not only for the pay- ment of reparations but for enabling m U S I C Germany to pay them.

THE LEAGUE NOT AN ISSUE (Continued from Page One.) "(a) That the past four years have resulted in stagnation in the foreign policy of the United States, retarda- tion in the process of world economic recovery, and a growing distrust of the United States in foreign countries," (b) that the United States should join the League of Nations and the World Court, and (c) that the "only way to bring the United States into the League within a reasonable time is. . through the election of John W. Davis as President." "(a) In the calling of the Washing- ton Conference, in the bold and rama- tic proposals for the cessation of com- petitive naval armaments, and for the acceptance of the several agreements of that Conference, by which the Pa- cific Ocean has ceased to be an area dangerous to the peace of the world, the Secretary of State, Mr. Charles E. Hughes was the master mind, the guiding spirit, and the tireless work- er. From the point of view of actual constructive contribution to the peace of the world, involving problems fac- ing world powers, the work of the Washington Conference is the most important during the four years com- plained of. A policy which has pro- duced such results can not justly be called "stagnant."

While these ten persons were ex- ceptionally talented, there were three, four, or five times that number show- ing all but equal promise, and the final selection at best becomes a lot- tery.

ARK ,YRON, INC., SAYS -1 "(c) The statement of the Signers that by the election of Mr. Davis the only way is provided for joining the League goes farther than either the. Democratic platform or the utter- ances of Mr. Davis himself. The plat- form promises an advisory referendum on the question. Thus in opposition to the efforts of Mr. Newton D. Baker, and no doubt mindful of the events of 1920, the Democratic convention vot- ed down, by over two to one, Mr. Bak- er's resolution for . a clear cut ad- vocacy of the League, and the entrance of the United States into it. Mr. Davis stands upon his platform-he is in favor of joining the League when the American people signify their desire to join it. So do we all. So does Sen- ator Jim Reed of Missouri, who says that upon such a declaration he can stand upon the Democratic platform and support Mr. Davis. "The fact is, that when the Demo. cratic party in convention assembled defeated Mr. Baker's resolution and substituted the phantom referendum it effectually made the League of Na- tions a closed issue, at least in this campaign.
