PROPS AMENTS Projected Parliament to Have Large Powers of Local Self Government, Is Stated. By William II. Braydcn Special Cabla to The J annul and Tha Chtcaco Daily Newa. (Copyright. 181. by Chicago Dairy New Co.) Dublin. Ireland, Nov. 21. Infor matlon reaching Dublin as to the conclusions of the cabinet commit tee on home rule corroborates the forecasts already sent The Journal and the Dally News. Though some of the details have not yet been set tled, the main outlines of the scheme are known. Two parliaments will be proposed one for Ulster and one for the rest of Ireland.. They will have large powers of local self-gov ernment, and the financial arrange ments will be much more generous than those povlded by the home rule act now on the statute book. But the will be reserved powers, some Of which will remain permanently witn fn control of the imperial parliament Some will be exercisable by the supreme Irish parliament when it is possible to brin it Into being. No Irish authority will have any military or naval power, fha atrateelc unity of the British isles being provided for as at present. The nature of the powers of the supreme trlah nil rl lament will be largely if not mainly determined by the agreement and desires of the two provincial parua mertts. COLONIAL MODEL FOLLOWED This plan seems to follow pretty close ly the colGnlal model which may be de scribed as dominion home rule. In Aus tralia and South Africa there were local parliaments in operation before there was a federal parliament and the federal parliament was formed after a confer ence by agreement between the various units. Instead of imposing unity upon Ireland and compelling a reluctant pow erful minority to support a majority which it distrusts and fears the scheme of the cabinet committee leads Ireland to find its own unity In a process of time. It recognizes that there Is euch a distinction between Ulster and the rest of Ireland as to entitle it to its wn choice of methods. Some means of reconciling Ulster with the rest of Ireland are admitted by all sides to be necessary and demanded by all principles of justice. The difference arises as to how it is to be done.

Nov. 21. The overwhelming reactionary victory in the French elec tions is prominently featured by the German press, with the exception of the radical papers. It has given additional stimulus to the already strong trend to ward the conservative and nationalis tic parties, with correspondingly de pressing effect on the Socialist elements.

' A graphic description of conditions In Berlin Is evidenced in this photograph which recently reached this country. Although the government troops are In control of the city, t ho Reds have many clashes with them and much property damage and loss of life results from the encounters. Sinn Felners believe that if they had their way they would reconcile Ulster though Prof. De Valera must have had his doubts of the eventual results when he suggested that any discontented peo ple in the northeast corner might clear out in six months If they were not satis fled. WA5T TO Wiy ULSTER OYEB Constitutional nationalists always have said that Ulster must be won over. County Plunkett's most promising sug gestion was to bring Ulster into the Irish parliament and let her leave it after a time If the basic facts of the case sets the Irish local government going at once while making its widest extension depend upon an .agreement to be worked out between the opposing elements themselves. Instead of victor and van quished it sets up two equal powers and commits Ireland as a whole to what soever Joint authority they can agree in constituting. Sir Edward Carson would prefer to go on as at present and share In the parliament at Westminster as fully as Yorkshire, but the govern ment plan is one that he could accept without feeling that he had been defeat ed or had let his followers down. DOMINION LEAGUERS OPPOSED The main line of attack on the plan has already been indicated by Irish com ment. The dominion leaguers instead of welcoming it as the adoption of Jheir principles have condemned It in ad vance. What they demand is that the whole question should be left to Ireland to begin with and let Ireland, as a whole, determine what shall be its supreme and what Its subordinate governing bodies. Though in the colonists Individualism preceded unity in Ireland, they want unity first Count Plunkett says this plan really makes Belfast into a sort of superstate and gives it the right of vote on the powers of the future joint parlia ment But not all of the members even of his own party take this view. I Inter viewed today one of the most prominent and influential members of the Irish convention, a roan of nationalist tradi tion who was an active nationalist when Sir Horace was still a unionist and who Is now a member of the dominion league. He thinks the government plan is quite workable and approves Its analogy to colonial experience. He would, of course, prefer the unity of Ireland from the be ginning but the facts have convinced him that the best and quickest way to ultimate unity may be this diversity to begin with. The longest way round is the shortest way home. PARTITION IS INTOLERABLE From the nationalist side the cry will be universal that It is a scheme of par tition and that partition on any terms is intolerable. It is a cry which will be joined in by many people on the plat form who will tell you frankly in the smokeroom that partition is the only way out. A good deal of the difficulty in Ireland at the moment is caused by What a Woman's rx n M in d Tells Her, not btim it Every woman knows in her own mind that no other baking powder is as good as Royal Baking Powder She may experiment for a time with cheaper baking powders with the false notion that she is saving a few pennies, but all the time she knows that her baking is not the same that sometimes it tastes queer or loses its freshness over night or causes indigestion. Sooner or later there comes a day when she wants her baking to be especially good, and then she remembers the adage "Bake it with ROYAL and be Sure" Contains No Alum Leaves No Bitter Taste unwillingness to say what you believe because you think you are expected to say something different. Hence if the government makes its scheme depend on open expressions of approval by general Irish opinion it will never pass. But if it is imposed it will, as the emin ent dominion leader when interviewed said, "have everybody's face." Men who oppose it will gladly work with it when it is passed. The Sinn Feiners will not sacrifice a Jot of thefr logical position. Their sim ple demand is that England should clear out of Ireland altogether and this would only be weakened by discussing the de tails of any scheme whatever. Accord ingly they will follow the advice of Ar thur Griffith, Prof. De Valera's deputy, and refuse all conferences and negotia tions on the matter. Their discussions will be as limited as was Carson's on the home rule. They will say. "We will not have it" But I know one very dis tinguished Sinn Feiner who is of the opinion that, although they should lie low for nothing, they ought to be pre pared to take over the work of the gov ernment scheme when it arrives. CABINET REPORT NOT FINAL The report of the cabinet committee is not final. It has been considered by the cabinet as a whole but the committee was so large and included men of such different views that their agreement is not likely to be disturbed. However, a bill framed on the lines of the scheme is not expected much before Christmas and many things may happen meanwhile. SWEDE FIRMS ACCUS E AMERICAN EXPORT E BREAKING CONTRACTS Importers Threaten Action to Re ' cover Losses From Alleged Violations of Agreements. By Hal O'Flenerty Special Cabla to The Journal and Tha Chtearo Dally Newa. (Copyright, 1919, by Chicago Dally News Co.) Stockholm, Sweden, Nov. 21. Scandi navian Importing firms are highly In censed over the bad treatment they say they have received at the hands of American exporters, whom they accuse of having broken a countless number of contracts made since the armlsttae.l Different business organizations heTe are planning to take action in an effort to recover the losses suffered. The chief complaint Is made against the representatives of new exporting firms that sprang up in America as soon as the armistice was signed. These has tened to Scandinavia, where they booked orders for any manufactured product, regardless of whether they had stocks of it or not, taking the chance of getting it from the manufacturers. CREDENTIALS SEEMED ALL RIGHT The brokers brought over credentials purporting to show that they were offi cials of concerns with reputable backing, but almost without exception they have defaulted on their contracts, leaving im porters on this side waiting for many months for delivery. This is having a depressing effect upon the business of reputable American concerns that have been trading with Sweden, Norway and Denmark for many years. There a"re Indications now that the state of affairs is considered so serious that an official report will probably be made to the United States government. RECEIVES SAMPLE ONLY One Swedish firm last week received the first sample of an order given a year ago with no possibility in sight of obtaining the remainder. Another paid 10 per cent upon a contract for a large lot of American shoes, but the firm on the other side refused to make delivery because prices had gone up and It also refused to refund the amount paid. Another complaint prevalent here Is that American exporters misunderstand the Scandinavian credit system and are continually muddling their orders. The result Is that England is getting a good portion of the business formerly given to American firms. Still .Vnother Strike London, Nov. 1. Declaring that their work should be performed by paid work ers, now that labor is more plentiful, the Knutsford pensions committee has gone on strike.
