LLOYD GEORGE FAVORS
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
Deputation Urging the Speedy
Adoption of Scheme Told
of Sympathy for Scheme
London, July 1,
Premier Movd George, replying to a
largo deputation from both houses of
Parliament that called on him a day
or two ago to urge the. necessity of
speedv adoption of a scheme of Federal
devolution, expressed himself In hearty
sjmpathy with this He declared, ac
cording to the ofllclal report, that he
had alwavs been a strong federalist
He realized, ho said, that Parliament
would bo utterly unable to deal ade
quatelv with post-war problems, If at
the samn time it was taxed with the
locil affairs of Scotland. Wales and
IreHnd but it would be Impossible to
carry through such a measure during
the war unless assured of something lIKe
general nssent of Parliament.
How fir devolution would help to
solve tho Irish question ho did not like
t predict 'It Is nover very safe to
Inriulgt In prophecv when the talk Is
about Ireland," slid tho Premier, "be
ciuse there has been so many prophe
cies and thej have alwavs ended In a
dispute Hut If a scheme Is adopted
which would glo equal treatment on a
federal basis to Ireland, England, Scot
lind and Wales. ou can say to Irishmen-
'Well, we are giving ou exactly
what wo are talking ourselves, nnd
what Is good enough for us ought to
be good enough for jou'
That said tho Premier, would satisfy
the dominions "which, on the whole, are
convinced that we havo not extended to
Ireland the measure of freedom which Is
her due
"When vou come to America," he con
tinued, 'there is no doubt at all of the
feeling there I have received letters
within the last few days from very
prominent Americans who are thorough
ly pro-English and who have a. great ad
miration for this country. They nre un
happy In their hearts that the Irish
question has not been solved What Is
wanted Is to propose a solution which
will enable us to say that we have dealt
justly with that country."
Speeches in behalf of the deputation
were made by Iord Brassey, tho Earl of
Selborno nnd John MacKinnon Roberts
and William Adamson, members of the
House of Commons. Mr. Adamson, rep
resenting labor, said that that party
would not acquiesce In the attempt to
set up a federal form of government
being made the excuse for ' hanging up
home rule for Ireland."
No representative from Ireland was
included tn the deputation
