ELECTION TUESDAY | HOLDS IRISH FATE Sosgrave and De Valera Both Predict Victory in Oppo- site Appeals. By the Associated Press. DUBLIN, Irish Free State, January Bt.—The Irish Free State votes Tues- day in the most fateful general elec- tion since the government was born of anguish and bloodshed a decade ago. In substance, the people will be asked o decide upon their whole political and economic future. ‘They must choose between momen- tous courses—either to follow Presi- dent Eamon De Valera in his fight sgainst the might of England along the pain to absolute independence from ‘Beitain or to reinstate former President William T. Cosgrave and help him try to develope the country within the British commonwealth of nations. The fierce campaign that followed upon Mr, De Valera’s dramatic disso- lution of the Dail January 3 closes Monday, with Mr. De Valera's last ap- peal from Dublin where he opened the campaign, while Mr. Cosgrave's final | rally will be at Cork | T.e final results of the vofing will| not be known until the end of the| weck due to the preferential ballot sys- tem, but it should be known within 48 hours whether the government is likely to be changed. Both Predict Victory. Both leaders continue to predict vic- tory. Observers expect a close fight with the narrowest majority or even & stalemate of the parties. The Fianna Fail, the De Valera party. announced it was confident of winning one extra seat in Dublin as a result of better organization and a house-to-house can- vass of the 81.000 electo: Mr. Cosgrave's headquarters today is- sued a “warning” to all of its support- ers advising them to “vote ea as it is possible otherwi y sonated and lose y . | The battle closing has been fought in the midst of economic blight | which settled over Southern Ireland as a result of the virtually prohibitive tar- iffs Britain impesed when Mr. De Val- era refused to continue to pay annually £5,000,000 (currently $16,750,000), com- prised mainly of land annuities. The immeodiate result was almost to Kkill the cattle trade, which is the Free State’s principal industry. From the start of the campaign Mr. | Cosgr: hammered into the people this, in essence: Vote for De Valara and you vote to complete the ruin of our country which his anti-English policy already has well under way. Vote for | me and I will adjust this Anglo-Irish | dispute immediately, restore your mar- | kets and again put you on the road to prosperity. Independence Promised. Mr. De Valera's answer has been: Vote for Cosgrave and you vote for England, | who wants him elected so that she can keep us in sul tion and extract mil- | lions in money from us. Vote for me and I will create a new industrial struc- | ture not dependent on cattle raising and will make you economically inde- pendent of England. ¥ ¢ 153 scats to fill in the Dail are six parties in the field | candidates divided as fol- | 1 (De Valera, 102 a Ngacdheal (Cosgrave). 85; . 10; Center (which takes the old Farmers Party), | 19: Ind=pendent Labor, 3. > last gove.nment Mr. De Valera did not have a majority over all parties, | but was dependent on the seven Labor votes for a slender margin to keep him | in office. It was because Labor showed signs of antagonism to him that he de- | cided on a new election. The new Center party is composed of farmers under the leadership of | Fren: McDermott, long connected with | American finance. The party was cre- ated to oppose Mr. De Valera and to| give farmers greater influence in the affairs of the country. There has been much speculation as to how strong this party will prove since the farmers are the ones hardest hit by the tariff war.| In one of the m(:ét Wi(mpaésmx\wdlerl;r campaign appeals Mr. De Valera, ?pbcaakmgptw:y at Kilrush, County Clare, said the hardships the Irish people are enduring now are nothing to what they | would face if they allowed themselves %to be broken by Britain.” The President urged the Irish “to let | England see that they stood by their fights as they did in the fight against eonscription.” MEMORIAL RITES TODAY FOR DR.

SHERIFF ACQUIRES " BILLYTHEKID" GUN Santa Fe Officer Finds Colt: Pat Garret Used to Kill Young Outlaw. By the Assoclated Press. SANTA FE, N.

Should the McNary-Crosser merchant airship bill, which has been passed by the House and now is pending in the Senate, fail of enactment during the present session of Congress, the result will be the breaking up of the greatest airship construction organization in the world and the end of all airship building in the United States, it has been learned. § For the building of the two giant Navy craft, the U. 8. 8. Akron, world’s largest airship, and th» U. S. 8. Maccn, now nearing completion at Akron, Ohio, the Goodyear Zeppelin Corporation has : assembled from all parts of the world the foremost authorities in airship en- ! gineering, design and construction. This organization, the finest in the world, must be broken up and scattered if the McNary-Crosser bill fails. Upon | passage of this bill depends the future of the American commercial airship. If the bill is passed, the construction of the Macon will be followed by the building of a giant passenger airship and the gradual building up of a great American merchant airship industry. If the bill fails, the entire organization will be broken up upon comvletion of | the Macon next April and all Ameri- can airship progress will come to a standstill. MacCracken Gives View. Reports that the Goodyear organiza- jtion must be disbanded in event the bill fails were confirmed here yesterday by William P. MacCracken, jr., former Assistant Secretary of Commerce for aeronautics and attorney for the air- ship group. Mr. MacCracken said that it probably would be impossible to keep together even the smallest nucleus of the great organization which has been built up over a period of years. Disbanding of the organization which built the Akron and is completing the Macon will deal American aeronautics a blow from which it will be many vears in recovering, in the opinion of aviation leaders here. The present | world airship progress is confined to, ithe United States and Germany and, if the McNary-Crosser bill is enacted | ,these two nations will co-overate to ' build up a great merchant alrship system. Should the bill fail the United States will drop out of the picture and Germany will be left undisputed mistress of the world's airship industry. Germanv now is completing construc- tion of the greatest airship ever under- taken, a huge passenger and mail ship which will aid the veteran Graf Zen- pelin in the pioneering of merchant airship transportation. | Code of Law Provided. The McNary-Crosse* bill, now pend- ing on the Senate calend-r, would sct up a code of law for merchant airships somewhat similar to the merchant ma- rine laws. It also would authorize the carrying of mail by airship in interna- tional traffic, on the same basis of pay- | ment which now applies to steamship mail. The bill would provide laws governing matters of insurance, dam- | ages and salvage of goods and material. | It would permit the setting up of agen- cies for development of airship traffic eimilar to those which have been | created for the guidance of steamship | companies. In the absence of such laws it is use- | less to build airships for civil use. since it would be impossible to build up in- | ternational traffic. the only field in which the dirigible now can be em- | ployed efficiently and profitably. in the opinion of the country’s airship leaders. Washington has a direct interest in creation of a merchant airship in- | dustry. since the American terminal for transatlantic airship traffic would be located in the vicinitv of the Capital, probably at Hybla Valley, near Alex- | andria, Va., on a site which has been | under study for the past three years by Goodyear engineers and meteor- clogists.
