DELAYED
Tuesday Unlikely.
Dublin, Dec. 19.-(By Associat
ed Press) The Dail Eireaun,
which met shortly before noon to
day and began consideration of
motions for and against ratifica
tions ot the Anglo-Irish treaty,
adjourned at one o'clock until
3:30 p. m. There was every indi
cation that the speech making
would continue through tomorrow.
In question was an alternative
proposed peace agreement drawn
up by DeValera. .. '
Question of Life
Speaker MacNeiU said Mr. De
Valera had requested that the
document be regarded as confi
dential until he put forward his
own proposal In - the public ses
sion. Arthur Griffith and Michael
Collins protested, but the speaker
, said he could not allow debate on
this point, and Mr. Griffith then
Fact Introduced for, moved the ratification ot the
Ratification Today itrfy- , ' , -
T?ii T11A4- -D ' Speaking to his motion, Mr.
JJU6 ailOt ei 016; Griffith said this was not a ques
tion of the mere rights of the
people; It was a question of' the
lives and fortunes of the people
of Ireland, and he was not going
to hldefrom the Irish people that
President DeValera's alternative
proposal would mean. .
"Not once did we demand rec
ognition of the Irish republic,
knowing It would have been Im
possible to secure It," he said, re
ferring to the London agreement.
Concessions Outlined
He read a letter which . had
been received from Prime Minis
ter Lloyd-George early in the ne
gotiations, saying the government
proposed making Ireland co-equal
with the other British dominions
and to secure for Ireland a place
in the league of nations. The let
ter also promised the withdraw
al of the naval and military forc
es from Ireland when the agree
ment was ratified.
Mr. Griffith said the oath of
allegiance agreed upon was one
"which any Irishman can take
with honor." -
Hearty applause was given him
as he resumed his seat.
President DeValera then rose
to move the rejection of the treaty
"I am against this treaty be
cause that will not end the con
flict between Great Britain and
Ireland," he declared. "I am
against the treaty because I am
for peace, not war."
DeValera vigorously denounc
ed the treaty as "subverting the
public." He dwelt at length upon
the allegiance feat'e of the doc
ument, inveighing in impassioned
Dublin, Dec. 19. (By Associat
ed Press) The Dail Kireann be
gan at 11:27 o'clock this morn
ing its public session for consid
eration -of the Anglo-Irish peace
treaty. Every seat in the hall was
taken when the speaker, Profes
sor John MacNelll, called the
meeting to order.
Griffith Moves Adoption
Adoption of the treaty was
moved by Arthur Griffith, for
eign minister In the Dail cabinet
and signer of the London agree
ment. Commandant McKeon of coun
ty Longford, one of the best
known of the Irish republican
army leaders, seconded the Grif
fith motion, saying:
"The Irish people want sub
stance, not shadows."
- Immediately after the meeting
began argument arose as to wheth '
sr. the document introduced by
Kamon DeValera, the republican
president, at the private meeting
of the Dail last week should be
Introduced at the public session.
It transpired that the document
tones against what he declared
would be the Ignominy of the
Irish people taking the oath of
allegiance to the British king. H
paid tribute, however, to the del
egates who signed the pact, say
ing what they did "was In their
excess of love for Ireland."
Mr. DeValera, continuing his
argument for rejection; declared:
n King ueorge came over , to
open . the Irish parliament, you
would see black flags In the
streets of Dublin."
He likened the treaty to' the
act of union, declaring it would
lead to endless strife.
Summing up he asserted the
treaty was entirely inconsistent
with Ireland's position and that
if it were ratified, Ireland would
continue subservient to England.
Cries. of, "no" from supporters
of the treaty followed this decla
ration.
Austin Stack seconded Presi
dent DeValera's motion, saying
that he stood for "complete inde
pendence and nothing short of
it."
Count Plunkett also spoke in
support of the motion for rejection.
During bis address President
DeValera said if a 'provisional
government were set up by Grif
fith and Collins in Dublin castle
It would be regarded by the peo
ple as a usurpation. They had
been chosen by British power as !
the authority In Ireland, he de
clared. Mr. DeValera said this was the
moment when a "grand police"
was possible and under It King
George would come to Dublin.
Cries of "no, no" from his sup
porters. ,. There were loud cries of "no"
when Mr. DeValera said the Irish
army would be his majesty' ar
my and the Irish minister his ma
jesty's ministers.
The republican president asked
if the Dail representatives had
')")" "liars" when they said the
people at the election had demand
