ove FACE BITTER FIGHT OVER IRISH POLICY Lloyd George Ministry Secure in Control of Commons, but Crisis Looms as Parliament Is ‘Assembled (By Associated Press.) LONDON, Feb. 15.—New political alignments and the proposal of legislative and governmental issues of tremend- ous import to the people of Great Britain were foreshadowed| Cinsumption during the six months when parliament reassembled here today after a recess of seven weeks. discontent with many of the recent past, seemed to have reached a climax, and it appeared the stabil- ity of the cabinet would be given its crucial test before the final adjourn: ment of the session next summer. Attacks on the government seem- ed certain to center about Ireland, the conditions prevailing in that island and the plans of the premier. for the future government of the Irish people. Former supporters of the coalition government were among those who were most bilter in their! comment on the Irish situation, and appeared to be united with the oppo- sition. The domestic situation, cen- tering about cohditions of unemploy- ment and high ‘taxes, brought new elements to the side of those oppos- ing Mr. Liofa George, while the policies te premier adopted relative to trade with Russia and acceptance of a British mandate for Mesopo- tamia seemingly went far toward dis- integrating the apparently over- whelming majority held by the pre- mier in the House of Commons. Collapse of the Lloyd George regime was not forecast, as it was foreseen he probably would be able to control enough votes in commons ‘to carry through his ministry’s plans, but it was evident that the premier would be called upon to fight in his most vigorous manner if he was to come unscathed from the struggle, Ceremonies incident to the opening of parliament were invested with all their pre-war splendor, but the pa- geantry of the day was shot through with a sinister note, as elaborate pre- cautions had been taken to protect members of the royal family from violence and to prevent untoward in- cidents in both houses. Visitors were excluded from gallevies and lobbies in the houses of parliament, and heavy reinforcements of constables and guards had been stationed at the ap- proaches of Westminster and thru White Hall. At strategic points sharpshooters had been placed to check any attempt at disorder. ‘The ancient practice of searching the vaults beneath the parliament buildings, which was instituted in 1606 as a result of the Guy Fawkes gunpowder plot, was carriéd out with far greater thoroughness than usual this morning by yeomen from the Tower of London, who wore their picturesque uniforms. Hundreds of thousands thronged the streets 6f London from early day- break to watch the royalties on their -way to parliament. King George and Queen Mary rode n a gilded coach which left Buckingham palace short- ly before noon. The Prince of Wales drove from St. James palace and reached parlia- ment ahead of the king and received tumultuous applause. With old-time pomp, parliamentary committees met the royal personages and after donning their robes, the king ascended the throne in the house of lords, where the commons mem- 3 were summoned. The Prince of 8, gorgeously robed, sat on the king's right. Ambassador and Mrs. John W. Davis and L. Lanier Winslow, first secretary of the American embassy, nted the United States. The Spanish, Freneh, Italian and’ Japan- ese ambassadors introduced an inno- vation by driving to the eeremonies in their state coaches.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.—Counsel for Donal O'Callaghaff, Jord mayor of Cork, today sought to have the state’ department reconsider its decision that their client was without rights as @ political refugee and subject to depor- tation because of his arrival in Ameri- ca as a stowaway without a.passport. Department officers said careful consideration would be given the claims of O'Callaghan’s counsel, but it was intimated that the department still regards the case as one of the department of labor to pass upon, O'Callaghan has been classed as a “seaman” by Secretary Wilson and was ordered to leave the United States last Friday, He now is registered at a hotel here. Labor department officials still were) reticent as to thestatus of O'Calla- ghan’s case, but some of them said secrecy regarding the extension of time ‘for his departure had been de- cided upon so he could get away with- out the knowledge of the British gov- ernments GUARD REORGANIZATION PROPOSED IN COLORADO (By Assoctated Press.) P DENVER, Cold., Feb. 15,—A meas- ure providing for the re-organization of the State National Guard was on the calendar “for consideration when the House of Repres:B‘atives of the Colorado legislature convened today. Another measure, sponsored by Sena- tor Peterson of Pueblo, providing re- vision of the workmen's compensation act, was scheduled to come up in the Senate.

Gland Subject, 19, Has Mind of One Year Old (By United Press) + CHICAGO, Feb. 15.—Nineteen-year- old Mary Zundak, whose broken men- tality was mended«by the transplant- ing of a monkey's thyroid gland in her neck, was marooned in a hospi- tal here recently while physicians waited for philanthropists to come to her aid. 5 4 Mary’s brain snapped when strick- en with infantile paralysis when she was six months old and for 18 years she lived in a basement of her pa- rents’ home at Joflet, Ill., where she was discovered by health officers. The girl could neither talk, read or walk. The parents, foreigners, kept her se- cluded because they thought that the best way to-protect her. Dr, Max Thorak, surgeon and chief of the medical staff at the American hospital here, volunteered to attempt the restoration of the girl's normal faculties. He performed the opera- tion of transplanting the monkey’s gland. A monkey was chosen be- cause it is‘the nearest to the human species and it was thought that one of its glands would be able to fur- nish the spark which would fire the brain, suppressed for eightcen years. Since the operation, two months ago, the girl has shown improvement in mind and body and hospital autho- rities are now faced with the prob- lem of educating her. She is still un- able to speak clearly, Thorak said, but he believes that if she can be given the care, she will develop speech and learn to talk and think. “Someone has got to care for the child,” said Thorak. “She should be placed in the care of someone who could give her an education. Doc- tors cannot spare the time. It isa pity, because Mary is unable to think for herself and ebe cannot walk prop- erly. She is st in the class of a year-old baby. “The thing’ to do is to get the aid of some philanthropist, to pay some woman to care fer the girl. Several people would be willing to raise the girl if they could be given financial assistance.” \ Reimbursement of Mexican Victims Proposed in Bill MEXICO CITY, Feb. 15,—All land owners in Mexico who were deprived of their property as a result of de. crees issued during the Carraza ad- ministration would be paid under the provisions of a bill, submitted to the presidential legal staff today by Presi- dent Obregon.
