·PARLIAMENT.

THE IRISH PROBLEM.

LONDON, July 24. Mr. Thomas, after further discussion, said they must again get into touch with the Irish Trade Union Congress. He appealed to the govern ment not to make the mistake of ignoring that body as unrepresentative If the government made a deal with the Irish labour party they would soir the problem. On the subject of Poland, Mr. Thomas demanded frank recognition of the Russian government and asked whether the government was prepared to enter upon negotiations with Russia immediately.

Mr. Lloyd George said: "No. We invite them here to discuss, in the first place, peace with eastern Europe, and once such discussions begin they are very apt to end in clearing up all misunderstanding."-

THINGS TO BECOME VERY MUCH WORSE.

LONDON, July 24

The official report of the Deputation from the Trade Union Congress to the Premier to present congress resolutions on the subject of Ireland states that Mr. Lloyd George, replying to the Spokesman, Mr. Thomas, said that Labour's scheme for home rule was truncated dominion home rule. It was idle to discuss such a matter except with somebody able to deliver the goods as the deputation was not. He saw no sign that Sinn Fein was prepared to discuss anything except absolute independence, which could not be discussed.

Mr. Thomas declared that the bridge. between the two extremes of Irish opinion could be found through a Parliamentary committee of the Trade Union Congress and an Irish parliamentary committee.

Mr. Lloyd George replied: "You may know more than I do, but I zu convinced that things on the other side are going to become very much worse and very much sterner. We cannot allow.this to go on. Therefore anybody anxious for peace must act quickly.”

BEATTY ON THE NAVY.

OUR PRINCIPAL BULWARK AGAINST AGGRESSION

LONDON, July 24: After receiving the freedom of the city of Huddersfield, Earl Beatty, in a speech, said that to-day's Navy, both in commission and in reserve, was the minimum compatible with the safety of the Empire. The Navy's policy regarding construction had been to investigate the problems of the war and to co-ordinate all the lessons so that when the time came, as it must come, for them to put these lessons to useful purpose, they should be applied with wisdom and understanding. The best brains in the Service were being devoted to maintaining the Navy, in such a condition that it would continue to form the principal bulwark of the Empire against aggression.

UNREST IN IRELAND.

LONDON, July 2ad. "In the House of Commons, replying to Mr. Devlin in regard to the trouble in Belfast, which Mr. Devlin described as due to an organised attack on Catholic workers at Queen's Island, Sir Hamar Greeawood stated that there had been a good deal of looting. The military bad-been-fired on and bad returned the fire. About 70 per som had been treated in hospital; 25 for gunshot wounds, from which three had died. A

tmber of the Police had been wounded, but not seriously.

The city is quiet this morning, but there was further fighting daring the dinner hear. Two iron workers and a soldier had been wounded. There was a considerable military force in the city, and the com mander had been fully empowered to take every step to guard against further dis

order.

The Uisterman, Mr. Donald, and Sir Faward Carson protested against Mr. Delia's description, and declared that the trouble was due to the Sinn Feiners pro- ducing revolvere at the meeting of protest against the murder of Colonel Smyth.

Mr. Devlin denied there were Siná Febers. He asserted that the people were incited to attack the Catholics.

LONDON, July 2nd. In the House of Commons Sir Hamar Greenwood said he would ask the House to pass certain legislation as soon as possible. The Government had introduced a Criminal Injuries Bill, which would enable it to intercept every grant from the Exebe quer to any person in authority in Ireland who was acting illegally. The action of every Council or other public authority was being examined and very drastic action would be taken to uphold the authority of the Crown.

Another Bill would establish's Tribunal superseding the Courts, which had failed to function at the recent Assize, owing to the absence of jurors, who were intimated by the reign of the revolver.

He would also submit a Bill enabling the Lord Lieutenant to establish a Tribunal to deal quickly with every criminal offence. committed in Ireland.

Sir Hamar referred to the widespread terrorism which prevented people from giving evidence in cases, and the dificulties in the way of laying charges, but under the legislation proposed it would be possible to mete out punishment in proven cases more adequate to the crime.

In the meantime, any decision of a Sirn Fein Court and any transfer of title under that Court was illegal and would be upset as soon as possible.

He denied there was any coercion in Ire- land. No soldier was there, except to pre- servo life and order. (Cheers.) "The peo ple of Ireland were terrorised by a few, and it was the Government's duty to break that terror, and give the Irish people a. chance to voice their real views.

He continued The situation is bad and gay grow worse, because the forces of the Crown are asserting the Government's authority. I regret to say that the House and the United Kingdom must brace itself to face a bitter period in Irish history. There will be a determined, organised attempt to establish an Irish Republic by means of murder and intimation. attempt will not be abandoned without much more bloodshed, and can only be defeated by the united determination of all parties and creeds to condemn it resolutely and oppose such savage methods."

He extended an invitation to representa- tion from every quarter, as regards the best way of settling the question of saving Ireland from ruin, and concluded his tell- ing speech with an appeal to the Bonsa for united support. (Loud Cheers).
