Irish question was held in Downing
Street today, the participants being the
mnjerity of the Government's negotia
tors, includ'ng Prime Minister Llevd
Geerge, Winsten Churchill. Austen
Chamberlain. Lord Birkenhead and Sir
Gorden Hewnrt.
It is believed the meeting mainly con
cerned itself with the legnl steps neces
sary le fulfil the Government's pledge,
te Ulster that the Flutcr Parliament
would be enabled te function properly
and be provided with funds.
Action nteng these lines). It Is pointed
out, does net seriously affect the gen
eral negotiations for un Irish settle
ment, for under the Government's plnu
l Istcr would be left n local Parlin
mnt with mere power than the present
Parliament lins.
Desmond Fitrgerald. of the Sinn Fein
delegation, snld en behalf of himself
and Ills colleagues, that they were tak
ing no part in the talks new In progress
between Sir James Craig, the Ulster
Premier, nnd Mr. Lloyd Geerge, nnd
were merely waiting until the British
I rlme Minister could put te them a
practical preposition recognizing the
unity of Ireland.
Envoys Return Frem Dublin
Michael Cellins nnd Geerge Gavun
Duffy, the two Sinn Fein negotiators
who went te Dublin nt the week-end,
returned te Sinn Fein headquarters in
Londen today. It is net expected, how
ever, that they will he nsked te further
conferences with Britain representa
tives before Friday, by which time the
consultations between Mr. Lloyd Geerge
and Sir .Tnmes Crnlg nnd the letter's
colleagues in the Ulster Pnhlnnf !,
i have been summoned te Londen' will
pessiuiy de concluded.
Success or failure of the pence
negotiations new rest with Ulster, in
the opinion of Sinn Fein delegates here,
who declare that their prope-nls te the
British Premier with respect te Ulster
arc liberal enough te allow or a settle
ment if Ulster se choesca.
The serious view taken in official
circles is said te be due te the stiff
attitude assumed hy Sir .Tnmes In his
conferences with Premier Llevd Geerge.
He ia represented us signifying that the
proposed basis of .settlement submitted
bj the British Premier would, in his
opinion, seriously imperil Ulbter'H
rights.
Lloyd Geerge May Resign
Should this attitude be upheld by the
Lletcr cubinet und the Government pro
posals rejected, it is regarded as pos
sible that Mr. Llevd Geerge will curry
out his threat le tender his resignation
as Prime Minister. Everything, conse
quently, Is thought te depend upon
developments Thursday, when nn im
portant conference will be held.
According te the Dully Mail. Premier
Craig has been given u document set
ting forth the terms agreed upon by the
peace conference committee, and' has
been asked le submit Ulster's opinion
of these terms in detail, stating hew fur
she can come into sigi cement with nil or
any of them. The most important point
the newhpapcr says, concerns the con
stitution und powers of un all-Ireland
senate.
Until the Ulster Cabinet has consid censid
ertiel the proposals and submitted Its
icplj, the new spinier adds, there can
not presumably be any definite turn te
the Mtuutien, which necessarily con
tinues full of difficulties and nn'xieties,
anil which may always be regarded as
extremely critical" until a settlement
Ls reached.
