DeValera Raises Technicality
and Calls Qown Delegates
Mike Collins ResentsKing
George Makes Speech, and
Ulster to Stand Aloof.
PL'M.IN', Dee. 11. The question of
ratification or rejection of the Anfc'lo
Irish agreement by tiie Pail Eiroann
has been postponed until Thursday,
when a public session will be held and
the deputies will debate the matter
and come to a decision. This was de
cided upon at today's meeting of the
Jail, called to consider the agree
ment. :leanv, bile the Dail in secret ses
sion this afternoon was discussing the!
dispute between the delegates to the
London conference who were the sipn-j
ers of the agreement, and Kamoun de
Valera, the republican president, and;
his adherents on this issue, as to
whether t ho delegates had the power
to conclude the at-'ieement.
In the argument during the hour's
public session Mr. De Valera assert
ed tin: delegates had not obeyed the
instructions of the cabinet, a charge,
which both Michael Collins and Ar-j
thur Griffith resented.
It was a question of whether the;
delegates bad failed to report to the
cabinet before siirnine; the agreement. I
.Mr. Do Valera insisted this was an
important point, but Mr. Griffith
claimed it was not a material one, for
while he and his colleagues had power
to sign an agreement they had no au
thority to conclude one.
l'resident De Valera argued that the
treaty should not have been signed
vfithout it having been referred to
Dublin. One reason why he had not
been a delegate himself, he explained,
was that an opportunity for delay
might be afforded.
One of the tensest moments of the
debate .was when Michael Collins de
clared emotionally:
"I have been called a traitor. Let
the Irish people decide whether I am
or not."
LONDON, Dec. J-!. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) Opening the special
session of parliament called to con
sider the Irish peace settlement, King

unbearable by the physician, whose
life she had ended v illi a bullet.

had on her life. A year ago she
thought she had succeeded. The rela

Then, on the eve of her marriage to

GOI.DEN'DALE, Wash., Dec. I I.
Mild weather in tho Klickitat valley
has taken the snow off of the wheat
fields. Warm rains have started the
grass on winter ranges and stock men
who saw their profits vanishing for
tho coming year during the recent
heavy snow are optimistic.
