IRISH SITUATION GIVEN MUCH THOUGHT Leaders of Several Schools Confer at .Dublin Meeting. Hopeful Views Held After Conference. Dublin, July 4.-For three hours to day Eamonn De Valera, the Irish Re publican leader; Arthur Griffin, -foun der of the Sinn Fein, and four south ern Unionists, Earl Middleton, Sir Maurice Dockeril, Sir Robert Henry Woods and Andrew Jameson, confer red on the Irish situation with a view to preparing the way for possible ne gotiations with the prime minister and the Ulster premier. Crowds gathered outside the "Man sion house where the discussions took place, wav ng American flags, many falling -an their knees and reciting prayers for the success of the con ference. The Unionists representa tives met with a cordial reception from those assembled. The members of the conference were reticent regarding what took place at the meetings but points of agree. ment were reached on the finiancial (iestion and the disadvantage of par tition. Popular sentiment is very hopeful of peace. This was voiced by the lord mavor in a 4peeeh at the meeting of the Dublin corporation after the confer ence, in which he said that he was breaking no co'nfidlence in declariing that much good will come of it. In a statemflenlt to the Associated Press today ai important official in touch 'xith all sides of the situation asserted that the government was prepared to make large concessions, the far reaclhing effect of which Mr. Ie Valera would appreciate. Ile added that fears that Mr. Do' Valera would be hampiered by physi cI forces were baseless. The view is entertained here that Sir James Craig's absence from the contference may be even advantage 1us to the present ne.gotiations since any concessions nece'ssar'y fr'om UI si;er might easier be made by the Ulster premier in London than Dub. !in. This-view, hov'ever, is not shar. ed by the members of the conference who have preferrwl that all Ireland should be represented. An exciting incident was enacted after the conference. A large Re publican flag decorated with Ameri can emblems hanging from a window in Iominis street was removed by soldiers. A girl siezed the flag and escaped. Later the flag was hung from a rope across the street. Auxil iary police climbed to the roof and cut the rope; when the flag fell it was siezed by watchers, but was re captured by the auxiliaries. A shot was fired during the confusion and the girl was severely wounded. WATSON ATTACKS ItESER\'E SYSTEM Union City, Ga., July 4.--Address ing the annual rally and barbecue of the Georgia Farmers' Uion here today, United States Senator Thomas E.

Mr. 'llarvey referred to the Anieri can relief work during and after the war, which, he said, "can not fall to live forever as one of the linest achievements of history." "The second misapprehension to which I referred is that my own coun tryien who have been led to doubt that the peoples of Europe have been doing the utmost for themselves be fore seeking help," the ambassador sa!d. "I have to confess that before I left home I held somewhat to that surmise myself. I do so no longer. During the past two months I have been privileged to talk freely and frankly iwith representatives, oflicial and unofflcial, of every stricelon staite in Europe and I have not heard one complaining word nor received a single request for benefaction.
