By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1921. LONDON, England, August 1.—Im- perial opinion and not any man set the Irish question in the way of set- tlement. That this sentence tells the truth one can find no impartial stu- dent of politics in London to deny. Not the king, not Prime Minister Lloyd Gebrge, not Lord Northcliffe, but the force of imperial opinion, unmistak- nbly expressed, turned the trick.

But his real ability and his real statesman- ship, according to Lloyd George, will show themsglves, if at all, not so much in his powerful exposition of the abstract right of Ireland to in- dependence, but in his recognition as a practical politician of the fact that Ireland must live in some kind of federal relationship with the other communities of the Bflflsh empire. Hurried Settlement. As has been pointed out heretofore, it was ol inestimable worth to the Irish peace movement that the Brit- ish dominion prime ministers were assembled in London and that they had a man like Gen. Smuts to go di- rect to de Valera and tell him that the dominions stood with the mother country against imperial disruption. But for this circumstance Irish peace would have been delayed, doubtless for a long time. EARLY DEVELOPMENTS SEEN. Definite Steps Between England and Ireland Expected. By the Associated Press. LO\DO\ August 1.—Development in ace. ne‘ounuons between Prime Mlnlster Lloyd George and leaders of the Irish republicans are imminent, it was reported here today, but gov- ernment leaders refused to lift the veil of secrecy. Certain deductions were made from the arrival in Dub- lin yesterday morning of Art O'Brien, president of the Gaelic League, but they could not be verified. ne rumor was to the effect that Mr. O’Brien was the coureir who would take the Sinn Fein reply to Mr. Lloyd George, while another story declared that Eamon de Valera would himself return to Lon- don during the coming week, and that Sir James Cralg,, the premier of Ulster, also wa the Irish repmmmn rliament, which s been ed to meet durl Ere e s o Oy receive a sudden call to Dublin, and the the concessions to be dem: England. Some members were clared to be adhering resolutely to the parliament, when held, would ably develop some stiff opposition to the leaders, who were represented as being rosolved to adopt a compromise meas ure It was munulned, however, that Mr. de Valera and his immediate col- 5 leaguaa retained control of the situa- on and would carry the principle of mpromise against the demands of 2 | extremists.
