DUBLIN LOSING CONTROL {Erin Governments Must Assert Au- thority if They Retain Brit- ish Good Will. BY GEORGE N. BARNES, British Parliament Leader. By Radlo to The Star. LONDON, March 25.—The sudden strength of the conservative section of the government, emphasized by the various suggestions that Lloyd George might be forced out, is due largely to the happenings in Ireland. The re- cent developments in that unfortunate country have given occasion for re- jolcing on the part of her enemies. Neither in north nor south Ireland has there been established any ade- quate protection of life. The rival forces are glaring at each other across intrenched fortified border positions. Men of the Irish republican army are Indulging in raiding and | looting. still _believe that the south Irish voters will accept the treaty if they are allowed to decide for themselves. Even If this should be so the trouble may only assume a new phase. There are two gleams of hope dis- cernible across the Irish channel. In the gouth Arthur Griffith has forbid- den the republican army convention, which had been projected by the ele- ment in opposition to the newly formed government. In Belfast Sir James Craig, the premier, has called in Sir Henry Wilson, late chief of the British general staff, to restore order in that volcanic city. Welcome Signs Seen. These are welcome signs on the part of the powers that be. Of course, much depends upon the out- come of these movements. If the Irish governments are to regain the good will of the British people then they must somehow assert their au- thority and restrain the unruly forces inside of their own borders. It is only natural that the Irish situation should have forced the ex- isting state of unstable equilibrium within the political parties here re- sulting in the decided tilt toward the solidification of the conservative parliamentary contingent. It must be remembered that before Premier Lioyd George left for his rest in Wales by the orders of his doctor, allegience to him publicly was de- clared by the conservative chiefs, while the main body of the rank and file were urged by them to follow suit. Instead the latter met with the “die hard” minority and separat- ed without any definite commitment. The coming weeks will, I believe, see a very changed situation. Conservatives Must Choose. The conservatives will have to choose between the resignation of the premier or a complete return to their loyal support of his policies for recon- struction of Europe as well as Irish pacification. 1, The Genoa conference opens April 10, and the premier is determined to address the house of commons and Insist on a vote of confidence before | | going to Italy. If I may venture into j the region of prophecy I should say that he will get what he demands. The conference will be a clearing of the European air, and, if all turns out well there, the coalition will, | perhaps, receive a new lease of life. The — conservative self-confidence must be short-lived, for, even were Lloyd George to resign and a con- servative ministry be formed, it would be at the mercy of those same , irresponsible “dle hards,” who oppose the Irish settlement, and who oppose jevery other principie or measure of democratic administration that may {be submitted to them. If an election followed immediately on Lloyd George's resignation the conservative majority would almost certainly be wiped out. However, the' conservatives right now are assertive and successful in the government. The liberals are being replaced by members of the party traditionally opposed to liberal- lsm. The reason, as I already have pointed out, is the developments in Ireland. Restoration of apparent or- der there would soon change the sit- uation.

BERLIN, March *25.—Prince and Princess Eitel Freiderich, who have arrived at-Doorn to spend 2 few weeks at the home of the former kaiser, say that they have come to get away from the suffering caused by the ' “Berlin scandal.” Both in- dignantly deny the stories circulat- ing in the continental newspapers to the effect that the princess had been intimate with Baron: Plettenberg. This charge was made the basis of a divorce suit instituted by Pletten- herg's wife, a pretty music hall ginger, . Iving in Westphalia. Dublin Losing Authority.

Among the gifts to the orchestra conductor of the famous playhouse at a recent benefit in honor of his twenty-five years' service was twenty-five pounds of firewood. The singers recelve salaries, the best of which, 1,500,000 rubles monthly, will pay for only a pound and a half of Lread daily. Many of the best singers have left, but there are still thirty-five principals, with a chorus and bal- let. Several performancs a week are given. Many of the ats are free, and a box for six persons costs only the equivaient of centy. Mme. Marie de Ribas, coloratura soprano, has contracted tuber- culosis, ‘but frequently sings lead- ing roles. She is a granddaughter of the Gen. de Ribas, who was e: delegated by Catherine the Great in 1794 to bulld a city here. The volce of M. Kanchan, well known as a tenor, has recently changed to baritone, due to nerv- ousness growing out of lack of food. Hiy salary Is 15,000 rubles a day, the price of a half pound of bread. _— LLOYD GEORGE ENDS REST.
