THE IRISH TREATY,

CONFERENCE OF SIGNATORIES ANRANGED,

HILP FOR NORTHERN GOVERNMENT.

LONDON, May 22,

In the House of Comcions Mr. Churchill said that the agreement signed at Dublin on Saturday appeared to raise the most serious issues affecting not merely the character and validity of the forthcoming election but also the treaty itself. The Government had therefore invited the Irish co-signatories to the treaty to come London to discuss the matter with the British signatories. It was expected that the conference would he beld | during the week-end.

As regards North Ireland the Government was cou- Edent that the Northera padiament would continue to grapple with the serious task of restoring and maintain- ing order. Foot additional batt lions had opportunely landed in Uister on May 20 raising the strength of the imperial forces to nineteen battalions. Any further reinforcements demanded by the Northern Government would be sent.
