DAY INTENSELY EXCITING
Crowds Outside Burst Into
Cheering After Waiting
for Hours.
DE VALERA RESIGNS OFFICE
Tense, Strained Silence Pre
vails During Count Then
Comes Gasp of Relief.
DUBLIN, Jan. 7. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) The treaty creating
the Irish Free State was ratified to
night by the Dail Eireann. By a
majority of Beven 64 to 57 it gave
its approval to the document signed
by its delegates at London.
Coincidentally Eamonn de Valera
announced his resignation from the
presidency of the Irish republic.
The news was received with the
jrreatest enthusiasm, and the patient
crowds, which had waited for hours
outside in anticipation of a decision,
burst into cheering, even before the
official figures were announced.
Day Full of Excitement.
Ratification came after a day of
intense excitement and heated con
troversy. Although the result was
as had been expected, the majority
was greater than had been counted
on, almost up to the last minute. 1
A tense, strained silence prevailed
while tho vote was being taken, and
a gasp of relief went up from the
supporters of the treaty when the
result was announced. A dramatic
scene ensued when De Valera stood
up and in broken voice, which vi
brated with emotion, declared that
"the republic" must be carried on.
Eventually he broke down so com
pletely that he was unable to pro
ceed. The Dail, with one accord,
applauded and cheered him.
Situation Still Chaotic.
The situation at the adjournment
appeared to remain chaotic. The
Dail will meet Monday and there
was no disposition revealed by De
Valera and his followers to abandon
tho factional struggle.
Future control of the Irish repub
lican army tonight was the subject
of anxious speculation, as Charles
Burgess, who strongly opposed the
treaty, is minister of defense. So
far as the public is concerned, Dub
lin seems delighted over ratification.
Arthur Griffith and his colleagues,
on leaving parliament, were wildly
cheered, and the city tonight was in
jubilant spirits.
On the announcement of the vote
figure, Mr. de Valera declared that
the Irish people had established a
republic and until the Irish people
in a regular manner disestablished
the republic it constitutionally went
on. This would be a sovereign body
in the nation, to which the nation
looked for supreme government. It

Old Issue Revived by Recent Dis
coveries In Britain Promises to
Be Much Discussed.
LONDON. Jan. 7. (Special Cable.)
The great mustache question is be'ng
revived once more, and we may ex
pect to hear a pood deal on the sub
ject this year.
There are various impelling cir
cumstances. Those gushing young
persons who are still torturing the
English language for new phrases of
delight over the royal engagement
have noted, of course, that Lord Las
celles Is the possessor of a real old-
fashioned mustache, and the heroes
of newspaper serials should be des
tined, therefore, to be equipped with
mustaches for some little time to
come.
To this must be added the thrilling
discovery, by our indefatigable pho
tographhers, that one of the king's,
sons now is cultivating a mustache
and that neither he nor Lord Las
celles is a supporter of the appalling
tooth-brush variety.
Further, we have In the public eye
Just now such eminent wearers of the
mustache as M. Briand and Lloyd
George, on whom the eyes of the
nations are turned; and that other
popular hero, Michael Collins, also is
muKtached.
Whence it comes that nameless
prophets in such matters foresee a
return to the later Victorian model.
MEDIATOR LOSES ARM
Quarrel Between Brothers-in-Law
Causes Maiming of Aged Man.
TILLAMOOK. Or., Jan. 7. (Special.)
As the result of a dispute over a
check, William Sede-rberg and O. D.
Spencer are in the county Jail and
James Spencer In a local hospital
minus his right arm.
The two men first named are in the
garage and trucking business at Rock
away and became involved in a quar
rel over a check. - James Spencer,
father-in-law and father of the men,
went to the premises for the purpose
of bringing about a settlement. Seder
berg mistook him for O. D. Spencer
and shot the aged man in the arm,
which it was found necessary to am
putate. BREAD SELLS AT 4 CENTS
Bakers Say 5-Cent Loaf Iniossible.
Stores Prove Otherwise.
CHICAGO, Jan. 7. Bread at 5 cents
a loaf Is imp6ssible, bakers who con
ferred today with Russell J. Poole,
secretary of the council high-cost-of-Hving
committee', asserted.
While the bakers were arguing
that it wag impossible to sell a loaf
of bread for 5 cents, two State-street
department stores advertised 16
ounce loaves for 4 cents.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 7 The 5
cent loaf of bread returned here to
day. The pre-war price was an
nounced by a large department etore
for the 16-ounce loaf.
FARMERS ARE OPTIMISTIC
Something Worth While Expected
of Coming Conference.
. WASHINGTON, D. C. Jan. 7. The
feeling that something "worth while
will come out of the national confer
ence on agriculture here January 23
has been voiced by practically all of
the more than 200 delegates Invited,
Secretary Wallace said today.
President Harding no doubt will
open the conference, which will be an
open one, Mr. Wallace said. The dele
gates will meet, he added, without
any previously arranged programme.
MUIIITIOIISCACH FOUND
Stores Buried by Italian Commun

TURIN. Italy. Jan. 7. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) The Turin carabineers
today discovered large quantities of
munitions buried in a cemetery near
here. The stores Included machine
guns, bombs, rifles and several small
cannon.
The planting of the munitions was
traced to a number of communist agi
tators, they said, some of whom were
arrested.
Senator Sees Danger in
Movie Proposal.
EVIL PURPOSES SUSPECTED
Call to "Biggest Republican
Politician" Decried.
OFFER HELD SIGNIFICANT
Industry Is Hurting Itself When It
Stirs I'p Politics Like That,
Says Mississippian.
WASHINGTON, D. C, Jan. 7. Sena
tor Harrison, democrat, Mississippi,
protesting against acceptance by
Postmaster-General Hays of the ten
dered position as head of the motion
picture industry, declared in the sen-
ate today that If the motion picture
prpducers "get the biggest politician
In the republican party to head that
Industry we must look upon it with
suspicion."'
He had no doubt Mr. Hays would
accept the offer and retire from th
cabinet. Senator Harrison said, and
he was "fearful" that If the former
republican national chairman "be
comes the head of the motion picture
industry he will place a censorship
upon some democratic pictures that
should be shown."
After describing the size of the
motion-picture business and its influ
ence a-nd freedom from politics up to
this time, the Mississippi senator de
clared that, should the United States
Steel corporation come here and make
an offer to a cabinet member of a
salary equal to that reputed to have
been tendered Mr. Hays to direct Its
policies, and he accepted It, "not only
would he be condemned, but the ad
ministration would also be con
demned." L-andla Incident Cited.
Senator Harrison referred In con
demnatory term to the offer which
Judge Land is accepted from or
ganized baseball, and asked:
"Why Is Mr. Hays selected by the
motion-picture Industry to accept a
fabulous salary? What is the purpose
of making this tender? Is it because
he i close to the powers that be?
Is it because he controls four or five
hundred thousand poetoffices and the
mail? Is it because he has the ear
of the president and si13 in the circles
of the administration? Is it because
lie helped to elect the house of rep
resentatives, whose duty it is to
frame tax laws and tariff measures?
Is it because he played such a large
part In the election of senators who
control the policy of the administra
tion in thia body?"
The senator said he could not
imagine that tho Industry sought Mr.
Hays as a star, to show with Mary
Fickford, Douglas Fairbanks and
"Fatty" Arbuckle.
"They have chosen him because
they think he can do the work," .he
continued. "Is it because of any ex
ceptional ability which he has shown?
Is it because he can elevate the mor
als of the industry? No. These are
not the qualifications that have
caused the tempting offer. There is
more significance to the offer being
made to the postmaster-general than
to any other cabinet officer. He
came into prominence because he was
a great organizer a.td politician.''
Taxen Picture Concern.
"Many' questions come up in the
senate and the house that affect the
motion-picture industry," the senator
suid. as he referred to the tax upon
it which had been proposed, as well
as to Items in the tariff bill now
pending.
I do not know whether they think
that through his closeness to certain
senators or because of hi attachment
to the president he can work wonders
in the new tariff bill or the supple-

"Stool Pigeon" Makes Arrange
ments, but Officers Appear
on Scene on Signal.
Opium and cocaine valued, at re
tail to addicts, at $75,000, was con
fiscated last night In a booth of the
Hoy Sun Low restaurant from So Hoo
and Chin Chung in one of the largest
raids ever made on the coast. The
Chinese had agreed to sell the nar
cotics to a federal agent for $36,500.
The restaurant management was not
implicated.
Patrolmen Shaffer and Burdick,
narcotic officers, learned that So and
Chin were endeavoring to dispose of
the drugs. They communicated with
San Francisco and Harry Haley, fed
eral narcotic Inspector, came to Port
land and associated himself with the
police, William M. McCarthy, Port
land federal narcotic agent, and J. E.
Brown and W. D. Morris, also federal
operatives.
Several days ago a "stool pigeon"
whose name was not revealed ap
proached the Chinese and obtained
samples of both drugs by "flashing"
a Toll of bills and assuring them that
he was a purchaser. The samples
were analyzed and found to be pure.
The price agreed upon was J36.500.
The "stool pigeon" professed to be
afraid to trust himself alone In
Chinatown with that amount of
money on him, so arrangements were
made to complete the transaction in
a booth of the Hoy Sun Low restau
rant, across the street from police
headquarters. As the "stool pigeon"
made certain that the drugs were In
the booth, the federal agents and the

Part of Money Obtained In Repay
ment of Debt Would Be Used
for Veterans.
THE OREGONIAX NEWS BUREAU,
Washington,. D. C. Jan. 7. A plan to
use a part of the money due from
America's associates in the world war
to pay a bonus to the eoldiers is to
be unfolded to congress within the
next few days. It is learned from au
thoritative sources.
It is known that conferences have
been held within the last week by
republican leaders of the senate. In
cluding members of the finance com
mittee. In which the president partici
pated, at which the more important
details of a new allied debt funding
bill were agreed upon.
The new bill accepts the house plan
of a commission of five to administer
the act. This government is to take
the bonds of the allied debtors for
the 111,000,000,000 of their indebted
ness, the Interest as at present agreed
upon to be 5 per cent. Tho commis
sion will be, empowered to fix the
time of payment of this Interest, the
fact being appreciated that some of
the debtor nations are not now able
even to pay the Interest on what they
owe.
The British being able unquestion
ably to pay the interest on the four
billions or more which they owe.
Great Britain's bonds will be under
written by the United States govern
ment and then be sold to the Ameri
can people, the money thus derived
being used to pay the soldiers the
bonus for which they have been
clamoring so long. The national ad-

Rest of World Invited to

BUT LITTLE IS LEFT TO DO
Aircraft Limit and Rules of
Warfare to Be Decided.
PARLEY IS N EARING END
No Indication of Progres Seen in
Far Eastern Discussions
During Day.
WASHINGTON, D. C, Jan. 7, (By
the Associated Press.) The Washing
ton Conference about completed Its
armament limitation programme to
day by voting poison gas into the dis
card. As In the case of the new rules to
goverri submarines, the prohibition
against use of gas was adopted by
the five great powers as applicable
among themselves, with an Invitation
to the rest of the world to Join In the
agreement. .
That left on the armament waiting
list only two topics limitation of
aircraft and general revision of the
rules of warfare and both seemed
likely to be passed over without defl
nlte action.
Air Warfare Itrpnrt Madr,
An air warfare sub-committee has
reported after much study that
limitation of airplanes appears Im
practicable until a conference of
wider scope has been convened, al
though it was suggested that some
restrictions on use of llghter-than-alr
craft might be worth attempting.
A future world conference for con
sideration of the rules of war also
has been suggested and sentiment
among the delegates seems to favor
it. Italy, however, hopes to see the
present negotiations develop some
agreement-against ""bombarding un
fortified cities. '
So far have the armament discus
sions proceeded that tome delega
tions are looking forward to a
plenary session Wednesday or Thurs
day to publish the completed limita
tion treaty and to record further
steps taken on the far east.
I'roKreaa t 'indicated.
In the far eastern discussions,
today's deliberation contributed no
surface Indication of progress, des
pite an appeal by the Chinese to
Secretary Hughes and .Mr. Balfour
to suggest a way out of the Chinese
Japanese deadlock on Shantung.
Facing a situation that both
described as delicate, it was apparent
that the two parties could not agree
even on a method by which media
tion could be attempted. The Chinese 1
wanted to avail themselves of the I
offer of 'good offices." made by Mr. i
Balfour and Secretary Hughes, but
the Japanese held that such a step
would be valueless unless China was
prepared to make concessions she
hitherto lias refused o consider.
Payment Method Factor.
A solution hinges on the method
of payment to be arranged for
China's purchase of the Tsingtao
Tslnanfu railroad, and both sides say
they have gone as far as they can
toward a compromise. In American
quarters, however, the opinion was
expressed that the difference was so
small as to make a final disagree
ment unthinkable.
It is considered certain that Mr.
Balfour and Secretary Hughes will
use every reasonable means to bring
the two groups together.
The general belief was that with
the armament negotiations ended, the
far eastern side could be wound up
in another week or. ten days. That
would seem to forecast a final ad-.
journment about two weeks or so
hence, but not so soon as some dele
gates had expected. Prince Toku
