R | b S — LONDON PRESS IS HIGHLY INDIGNANT Sees Nothing But Trouble in New Irish Agreement London, May 22 (By Associated Press)—Surprise and dissatisfaction are the domipant notes in the com- ment of the London morning news- papers on the agreement reached in Dublin Saturday between the leaders of the opposing political factions, Most of the editorial writers regard it as the surrender of Michael Collins to Eamon De Valera and do not see| how it will enable the Irish people to express their will respecting the Anglo-Irish treaty, Some also find a connection between the peace pact and the outbreak of Sinn Fein violence in the north. “Times" TIs Disturbed. The Times says the outrages in the north can only lead to a situation in which the last bounds of order will break. It declares that those re- sponsible acted identically with the extremists in the south the object in each case being to overcome the north's resistance to the union by co- ercion and violence. “8o serious is the situation in [Uls- ter,” it adds “that the effect of the ,agreement between the provisional government and De Valera upon it is of first importance. On the surface it would seem that Collins and Griffith} have only found peace by a surrender of their position and that the elections will be little more than an empty form:t The Daily Chronicle, ment newspaper says: “Tt may be wrong to connect in any way the agreement with the renewed hostilitles against Ulster, but if they were unconnected before the event they will inevitably be connected in the eyes of Irishmen after it." Fear New Outbreaks The newspaper fears that the Sinn Fein activities in the north will arouse burning indignation among the Pro- testants in Belfast and tax the strength of the northern government's states- manship to the utmost. Tt adds: “All Ireland would rejoice to learn of the agreement if it really meant that elections were freely to be held and that the people were to be the arbiters of their own fate but we can- not see that it means anything of the kind. It seems to mean nothing if not that the provisional government is prepared to buy off the hostility of its opponents gaining nothing in re- turn except postponement of the evil day. “No issue will be before the con- stituencies, unless it be a return of a government devoted temporarily to the maintenance of peace. The issue of Anglo-Irish peace will not be raised. | The electorate will have now power of | choice—the oligarchs of the Dail haw‘L decided to exercise it in their stead “What is to happen to the consti- tution we do not know; what will be the status of the provisional govern- ment we do not know; what is to be- come of the pledged word of the sig- natories to the Anglo-Trish treaty we hope to have explained soon.” The Daily News things the world must be growing skeptical of Irish pacts. “None but very bold men would venture to say that the new agreement would produce peace in Treland” it adds. “The bitterness of the speeches in the Dail last week scarcely suggested that there was a sufficient stock of good will or an ade- quate groumdwork of common aims for building forthwith a bonafide pact.” the govern- LADY ASTOR TO RETURN.

J, May 22 road disaster near here was averted so narrowly vesterday that 300 pas- sengers, many of them New Yorkers, are still shivering over what miight have happened The 300 were in a Central railroad of New Jersey flier. They were badly shaken when the train was brought from a sixty-mile- an-hour speed to an emergency stop. dor a second after the heavy train ground to a standstill they braced themselves against the crash that didn’t come Then they went tum- Wing out, spreading along the right of way, glad to be alive and unhurt. The accident happened to the At- lantic City express, northbound for New York, which was due at lLake- wood at 11:09 in the morning. Just us the flier was gathering speed the tender jumped the rails. Engineer Frank Rice of Bridgeton felt the sick- eéning bump-bump as the wheels| grated over the ties. Expecting every second that the derailed tender would drag the rest of the train off in a bad spill, he shot home the emergency brake. The train ran a thousand feet be-| fore it came to a stop. The tender| failed to jump back in place, as some- times happens, but by good luck it failed, too, to pull another single truck off the track. The roadbed was ripped badly and many ties were displaced. The telegraph operator at Hadden Crossing, where the express came to a stop, flashed word of the accident to division headquarters and a repair gang sped to the spot. The right of way was blocked for an hour and a half at the peak of the heavy Sunday traffic shoreward but at the end of that time temporary re- pair had been made and the road was open again. CHAINED CHILD TO A CHAIR Father Came Home To Find He Broke Link And Was Drowned Hopkinsville, Ky., May 22.— After being chained by his father at their| home, George Williams, aged nine,| broke a link in the chain while his father, Richard Williams, was absent and went to a nearby brook where he was drowned His body has just been recovered. Whether the child committed suicide or fell into the water while fishing is not known. Williams. who lived alone with his child and had to leave the house in| the daytime to work, is quoted as saying that the boy was incorrigible and that he was compelled to chain him up to prevent his running away to the creek. When the father came home late and found the boy missing a search-| ing party was organized and the child's body was found. A piece of chain about eighteen inches long was still fastened about one of the lad's ankles. The other part of the chain was found secured to a chair in the Williams home.
