ECONOMIC VROPOSITIONS TO Washington, Dec. 13.—(By The A. P.) —Some of the foreign diplomats in at- tendance_at the arms conference have re- ceived word which they interpret as in- dicating chat Lloyd George, the British premier, *is yreparing to take the initia- tive In wosld economic matters, having become convinced from the results of in- quiries made here that the American government does not intend to call an international economic meeting, at least not in the near future. The British prime minister's plan acl cording to the information in the hands of these diplumats, contemplates the can- cellation of all war debts owing to Great Britain by ltaly, France, Belgium, Rus- sta, and the smaller Balkan allies, amounting with Interest to upward of two billions sterling. Premier Lloyd George, it is recalled, proposed fo. Fresident Wilson that ajl inter-allied debts including those owing to the United States should be cancelled but his present design, according to the understanding does not include the re- newal of that suggestion to the United Etates. He is said to intend to annul the Gebts of other countries due Great Br.iain, subject to conditions, ome it is understood, being that France should for- glve the debts of allied countries to her amounting to about the equivalent of two tiilions of dollars and another being a reduction of German reparations due to France by 13,511,000,000 of francs. This is the amount the French government borrowed of Frgland during the war and is about as large a sum as that loaned to France by the United States, which was 15,285,000,000 francs at the exchange then used of 5.45 francs to the dollar. —_— NEW ENGLAND LIME C SUFFERS $125,000 FIRE LOSS » North holiday would Dakota, e proposal to retain the Mutsu in of the Setsu is in line with the contention of Japanese naval ex- perts of during the first discussion an’.lw naval o that experts of al naho:.\'@ were agreed that ships armed with l - inch guns could rot lie in (hn_hfi(ll-,rl n2 modern craft armed with 14-inch, 3-inch or 16-inch rifies.

IRELAND INTENT UPON THE 2 ACTION OF DAIL EIREANN TODAY Dublin, Dec. 13 (By the A. P.).—Great interest and some anxiety prevails in Dublin, in fact throughout the whole of | Ireland, tonight concerning tomorrow’s meeting of the Dail Eireann, which is to decide whether there shall be peace with Great Britain. It is considered possible that there may be no direct vote in the parliament on the question of acceptance or rejection of the treaty arranged in London—tha® it may be referred to a plebiscite of the people to decide whether the agreement which Arthur Grifith and the other Sinn Fein plenipotentiaries made with the Britsh government shall be accepted. The question rests with tire Dail Eire- ann, which was elected on a republican mandate, and while a majority of the people of southern Ireland are declared to be desirous of peace, there were few tonight who would venture a guess on the final result. This powfly will not be arrived at until Thursday cvening, . There will be 120 members of the Dail Eireann present at the session tomorrow in the Mansion ' House. Among these will be Arthur Grifiith, who will move the adoption of the agreement reached in London, and who can safely count on forty votes in the affirmative. Eamonn De Valera, who is opposing his old com- | rade, is said also to have forty members behind him. How the remaining forty members will vote nobody but themselves | knows, The women members generally have been counted as being among the die- | hards, but ‘it is reported that some of ‘them who suffered most during the Gls- turbances have decided to forget the past and vote with Mr. Griffith and his fol- lowers. Even though Mr. Griffith has been in Ireland through all of the country's re- cent troubles, and is declared to be in close touch with the Irish people, it i3 gonsldered that he has a hard battle to ght. S The bishops of all the' Irish dioceses met today to discuss their attitude tow- | ard the Anglo-Trish agreement. They | held a two-hour session at moon, after ! which they issued a statement saying that fhey would awalt the action of the Dail Eireann before making a pro- nouncement. This evening they held a private meeting to decide what steps they would take after the Dail Eireann has . reached a decision. One of the bishops said that if a plebiscite is decided on the bishops would use all their influence among the people for acceptance of the agreement. e ULSTER NOT TO INJERFERE WITH IRISH SETTLEMENT London, Dec. 13 (By the A. P.).—Sir James Craig has sent a telegram to Mr. Lloyd George saying: “In order to main- tain the sequence of events it is of the utmost importance that my letter to yoy of July 29 should be included. I theres | fore am supplying a copy to the press” | The Ulster premier's letter of that date announces to Mr. Lloyd George that his vroposals for an Irish settlement have | been exhaustively examined by Sir James and his cabinet. It proceeds to dilate on Ulster's unabated desire to retain British citizenship and to point out the sacri- fices Ulster made in agreeing.to self- government and the establishment of an | ter parliament, “much against our wish, but in the interests of peace.” Complaining that southern Irishmen are now repudiating the act of 1920 and pressing for wider powers, Sir James says: “To join in such pressure is repugnant té “the people of morthern Ireland. In the further interest of peace we therefore respectfully decline to determine or inter- fere with the terms of any settlement between Great Britain and Southern Tre- land. ' It cannot then be said that ‘Ulster blocks the way.’ _ “Similarly, if there exists gn equal de- sire for peace on the part of the Sinn Fein, they will respect the status quo in Ulster and refrain from any Interference with our parliament and rghts, which under no circumstances can we admit " Expressing reliance in the British peo- ple to insure that Ulster ig not prejudiced by any terms entered into between them and Eamonn De Valéra, Sir James de- clares: “Our acceptance of your original invi- tation to meet in conference in London still holds goed. But I feel bound to ac- quaint you with the fact that no meeting Is possiple between Mr. De Valera and myself until he recognizes that northern Ireland will not submit to any authority other than his majesty the king and the T parliament of the United Kingdom and admits the sanctity of the existing pow- ers and privileges of the parliament and government of northern Ireland.

Chicago, Dec. 13.—(By The A. P.)— Slashing extra provisions for the first two hours of overtime after the regular eight hour day's work from rules gov- erning railway maintenance of way em- ployes, the Urited States Railroad La- bor Board has set up a schedule of ten hours a day at the regular hourly wage for common laborers in new rules an- nounced tonight to replace the national agreement maae under government con- trobw The princinle of “eight consecutive hours shall ccnstitte a day's work” is retained, nowever, and time and one half pay is granted after ten hours' work. The new provisions make possible a ten hour day without penalizing the ra roads which were compelled under the federal agraement to pay time and one half after eight hours. Practically all section gangs work more than eight hours a day due to time necessary for necessary weather. The rules hecome effective December 15, exactly une year after the agreement was made between the United States railroad administration and the United Brotherhood «{ Maintenance of Way Employes and Railway Shop Laborers. They. apply on all railroads where agree- ment has not been already reached on rules to supplant the national agreement. Many rulss had been agreed upon by a majority of roads and in such cases the federal counter parts were remanded for further coasideration to reads not reach- ing an agreement. These included rules on seniority, promotion and special ser- vice where local conditions were held to govern. Wage schedules were eliminat- ed as a part of the rules agreement. Removal of the two hours’ overtime penalty was declared by labor board at- taches to cut many millions of dollars from the carricrs’ annual payrolls. Normally the new rules would affect 585,000 but at present the force is con- siderably less, due to subnormal traffic conditions and.also to the seasonal ma- ture of the work.
