the editorial wrltors of today's I.ihidon

not see how It will enable the Irish
people to enpress their will respecting
the Anglo-Irish treaty.
Tho Times doelares thut thoso re

being to ovorconto tho north's resis

"At the elections Ireland was to have
decided whether sho. accepted or re

to withdraw that question from the
people and cstaBlish an executive in
which tho republicans have a voice
virtually equtil with tho pro-treaty

The commission expressed hope

"exercise what is suptxised to be his
great power for a thorough cleanup in
the whole picture business."' 4
"We hope Mr. Hays and the produc
ers will keep up the work," continues
tho report. "Kegardieas of 'what they
do we must demand the enactment -of

Immigration Authorities In

Shocked Mother of Famous

to Remain in the U. S.
WASHINGTON. May 22. Immigra
tion authorities are investigating the
conditions upon which Hanna Chaplin,
the aged and shell-shocked mother of
Charles Chaplin, motion picture actor,
and Sidney Chaplin is allowed to re
main in the luited States. This be
came known today with the issuance
of an order by K. J. Henning, assistant
secretary of labor, granting stay of
time to enable Mrs. Chaplin and coun
sel employed by; her sons to present
legal grounds for permitting her to be
a semi-permanent resident in the Unit
ed States.
Mrs. Chaplin, herself an actress, it
was explained, was mentajly deranged
by shocks suffered during one of the
first ot the German aerial raids on
London during the war. When the
war ended ber sons desired to take
her to California to give her environ
ment and treatment which would ease
her condition and possibly, it was
hoped, restore her reason. She was
after son!e difficulty given permission
to enter the United States and remain
for one year.
The Chaplin brothers, upon her arri
val in the United States gave assur
ance that she would never become a
charge on public charity and installed
her In a cottage at Santa Monica, Cal
ender care of trained nurses and with
expert medical and neurological atten
tion. Tho attending physicians report it
was said, that her mental condition
has improved steadily, despite her age,
and counsel also have presented a
statement that Charles Chaplin is
worth more than Jl.000,000, contend
ing that tho extraordinary circum
stances Justify Home yielding in the
legal barriers against admission to
the United States of aliens, either per

A decision in Mrs. Chaplin's case, it
was said, was expected to be announc

British Steamer Egypt, Hit By

aries Among Missing.
BREST. May 22. (By the Asso.
elated Press) Ninety eight peasons
are missing and 242 were saved ot
those who were on board the British
steamship Egypt when It wag sunk
off the island of t'sliant, Saturday
night by a collision with tho French
steamer Seine, according to the latest
figures.
Among those missing are two
American women, Mrs. M. L. Sibley
and Miss V. M. Boyer, whose home
addresses are unknown here. It is
possible thut some of the missing. In
addition to those brought here, may
have been picked up by the steamer
Cap Iracon. The Cap Iracon was
nine- miles away from the scene und
replied to the distress signals with
the assurance that she was speeding
to the spot. According to the Egypt's
purser the ship floated only about 20
minutes after her plates wero
crushed In by the Seine. The Egypt,
he declares was not moving at the
time of the accident, lying to on
account of the dense fog and sound
ing her siren continuously.
Mrs. Sibley and Miss Boyer were
missionaries on their way to India.
The Egypt went down In 400 feet
of water. She carried $300,000 in
gold besides a consignment of mull
for India. So far ono mag pouch has
been picked up, but nothing else ex
cept tho wreckage from tho crash
was found on the surface.
The ship's officers did not save
even the vessel's papers.
It is not questioned by most ot tho
survivors, however, that many of tho
S00 odd persons wero thrown into
the sea or Jumped from the sinking
ship when they were unable to obtain
places In the few lifebouts that were
lowered.

J. P. Morgan in Paris. .
PARIS, May 22. (By the Asso
ciated I'ress The French parlia
ment will re-convene tomorrow in an
atmosphere of anxiety, chiefly over
the prospective use of military to
bring pressure on Germany.
Expiration of the time given Ger
many to accept the reparation com
mission's conditions is only one week
off. but there will be no immediate
action, since Premier I'oincare,, al
though determined to go ahead alone
it necessary, will take time to Induce
the allies to join him if he can.
The cabinet is regarded by the , best
posted members in parliament as
sure ot a big majority in approval of
Its policy of energetic action.
Some apprehension is felt lest this
situation make still more acute the
difference which has arisen in the
entente.
PARIS, May 22. (By the Assoclat.
ed Press) The allied government's
represented on the reparations com
mission are looking with consider
able hope upon the prospect of a per
manent solution of-the German repa
rations questions growl n if out of the
meetings of the committee ot inter
national financiers including J. P.
Morgan of New York, . which will
begin in Paris Wednesday. The cir
cumstances under whiqh th com
mittee was formed indicate that the
governments of France, Great Brit
ain, Italy and Belgium are disposed
jn advance to receive the conclusions
of the committee with great defer
ence. .
Sir John. Bradbury, British minis
ter, member of the reparations com
mission was under stood to have
made the first suggestion that the
commission should invito eminent
persons in both allied and neutral
finance to examine into the question
whether an international loan could
be issued for Germany to facilitate
over a long term of years her cash
payments to tho allies.
PARIS, May 22. Roland W. Boy.
den, an observer for the United
I States government, took part In the
deliberations and gave his unofficial
, opinion. The commission requested
I Mr. Boyden to ask the state depart
j ment at Washington if it would ap
prove ot an American member of the
'commission. The state department
replied expressing unofficially its
unwillingness, it is stated, that an
American financier should be Invited
as n private individual.
The commission in determining
who should bo invited from America,
agreed that no one having direct re
lations with German finance could
be considered and decided upon Mr.
Morgan as the banker representative
of American flnunce as having u
clear appreciation of both the Ameri
can and allied interests. The invita
tion wag .transmitted to Mr. Morgan
through tho etato department and ho
accepted as soon as ho knew that it
was looked upon favorably by th'o
American government.
The German government was con
