(By Ass'd Press) —Eamon De Valera and his cabinet began today what promised to be final consideration of the Sinn Fein reply to Great Britain's terms for a settlement of the Irish question. The executive committee of the Sinn Fein was also in session but the Irish par- liament did not meet, an adjourn- ment over today being taken so that the cabinet might be free to devote its entire attention to the note to be sent to London. It was expected that work would be expedited and that the completed draft of the Irish reply would be ready for submission to the Dail at tomorrow morning's session. It was apparent yesterday that Mr. De Valera and his colleagues wished to bring the cabinet, the par- liament and the Sinn Fein executive committee into accord on the subjects to be covered in the reply to Great Britain and it seemed that differences of opinion had developed over the nature of the note. There were in- dications that new elements had entered into the situation and it was believed the republican leaders found it necessary to take more time before committing the Sinn Fein to a course of action that had not been most carefully considered. .
