Britain Plans to Take
t Over Saloons in Ireland
By Associated Press
London, May 9.—The parliamen
tary correspondent of the Daily
News says Joseph Devlin, nationalist
member of parliament from Belfast,
on behalf of Irish interests, has of
fered the government half the pub- j
lie houses in Ireland for 2,000,000 I
pounds sterling. The offer would ]
mean the closing of between 7,000
| and 8,000 establishments and is fa- ;
vorably considered by Chief Secre
! tary Duke, who will consult the gov
ernment.
The correspondent says the ad-1
ministration is ready to adopt state !
purchase of the liquor interests in ;
Ireland, but is undecided in regard
to the rest of the kingdom. The
parliamentary situation is unfavor
able as far as Great Britain is con
cerned, nearly one hundred members
of the House of Commons being j
pledged to oppose' state purchase.
