Bill to Legalize Irish Army Bucks Criticism Dublin, SPpt 21.—A bill to legalize the Irish National army, which hith- erto has operated without legislative authority, has fust been framed and is the subject of much eriticism from both Labor .and Conservative mem- bers in the Dall. The measure con- stitutes an army code similar to the king's regulations for the British army, and would be effective only for one year. At the end of that time, the bill provides, the army question may be reconsidered. Labor leaders oppose the measure 424 MAIN ST.. Henry | because of the distinction between of- ficers and men, while the Conserva. tives urge that it bs modelled more closely after British Dominion army legislation. Other critics object to the present method of combining the oftices of minister for defence and commander-in-chief, and have started agitation to have the defence minis- try made a separate and eivillan of- fice, It the measure, which is known as the “Defence Forces Bill" passes, it will give the army a legal status for the first time. To date, the 50,000 men comprising the national forces have served on an emérgency basis. The bill is elaborate, comprising 245 clauses, and providing for the es- tablishment of an Irish military col- lege for officers, for the creation of an army reserve, and making the de. signations of military rank. All soldiers will be required under the measure to take an oath, pledg- ing “true faith and allegiance to our country.” - The present strength of the army has caused much discussion, as it fs in excess of the proporition with the British army, agreed to in the treaty. Answering the critics, General Mul- cahy announced recently that by.next March he expects to reduce the total of armed forces to 80,000, BECLEY 5 BL‘K All Morning Special, 7 to 12 A. M.
