BELFAST, December 16.—Sir James Cralg In his letter to Mr. Lloyd George says that in a statement Mr. Lloyd George gave him November 25 the premier promised that Ulster's rights would in no way be sacrificed nor compromised until new porposals had been placed before the cabinet of northern Ireland. “Therefore,” the letter continues, “it was with grave concern that we no- ticed that an agreement which ma- ‘erially involved Ulster's interests had been signed by his majesty's gov- crnment without our being consulted. A question vitally affecting our inter- ests is the decision to establish a com- mission to review the boundaries be- tween northern and southern Ireland. “No Precedent in History.” “There is, I believe, no precedent in the history of the British empire for taking a territory from an established government without its sanction. Moreover, this is a breach of the gov- ernment of Ireland act of 1920, which was put into operation only last June. “At our meeting December 9 you complained that it was only intended to make a slight readjustment in our boundary line, so as to bring into northern Ireland loyalists who now are just outside our area and transfer a corresponding equivalent number of those having Sinn Feln uympathles to the area of the Irish Free State.” Sir James says he reserved to the Ulster ‘government the right of dis- senting from the appointment of the boundary, commission, and he protests against “the declared intention of your government to place northern Ireland automatically the Irish Free State. Antagonistic to Liberties. “Not only is this opposed to your pledge,” the letter continues, “but it also is antagonistic to the general prin- ciples of the British empire with re- gard to the liberties of her peoples.” The Ulster premier says it is true that Ulster is given the right to contract out of the agreement, but only after her automatic inclusion in the Irish Free State. “The action of the British cabinet in this matter, the letter goes on to say, “is a complete reversal of their policy as declared in the king's speech at the opening of the northern parliament, and also in the published correspondence be- tween you ard Mr. De Valera. This policy was that Ulster should remain out until she chose of her own free will to cnter an all-Ireland parliament. “Neither explanation nor justification of this astounding change has been at- tempted. We can only conjecture it is a surrcnder to the claims of the Sinn Fein. Takes Up Allegiance Insues. Regarding the question of alle- glance, the letter says the concession to the Sinn Fein of a different oath than the other dominions take “would seem to make it impossible for Ulster ever to enter the free state.” It adds Deaths Reported. The following deaths have been reported to the health department within the last twenty- four hours: 768 Watts, 66, 1345 Shepperd. 14, Georgetown Hospital. = “Coclptiaa,” 1 months, Provigynce Hos- 37, Freeamen's Hospital. ‘lorence Court Ap! St Automatlcally 'lhn further adverse criticism against the treatv might be made regarding the council of Ireland and the judi- ciary, but that this will be withheld for the present. “In spite of the tnducements held out to Ulster under your arrangement Wwith the Sinn Fein,” says Sir James, “we are convinced that it is not In the interests of Great Britain or the em- pire that Ulster should become sub- ordinate to the Sinn Feln government. We feel that in the years to come the empire will realize the advantages of having in northern Ireland a popula- tion which is determined to remain loyal to British traaltions and citizen- ship, and we are grad to think that our decision will obviate the necessity of mutilating the union jack. “In the long run the British nation will come to recognize that the action’ we are taking is in their interests and it will accord to northern Ireland such 8 measure of protection and such fair consideration as will counteract thi disadvantages due to her position a : (rontler state of the United King- om.” A NEW BIG FOUR ‘Why wade through articles on the Far i}num Con- ference?
