IRELAND
AMENDMENT TO TREATY. MUST NOT BE DELAYED. BY CABLE—PBEBS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT Received Aug. 6, 1.55 p.m. LONDON, Jug. 5. Messrs Thomas and Henderson arrived in Dublin this morning. Mr Cosgrave and Cabinet joined them at the Vice-Regal Lodge, and they lemaii.td in consultation for the -<st of the day. It is understood that Mr Cosgrave strongly opposed delaying amending the treaty until October, and indicated he could not be responsible for developments in the Free State if the necessary legislation was not pushed through. The Daily Telegraph’s Dublin correspondent says that persons in close touch with the Cosgrave Ministry declare that Mr Cosgrave put the alternative before Messrs Thomas and Henderson of pushing the Bill through or facing such a change in soirthern Ireland as would force, the Cosgrave Ministry to resign. Mr Cosgrave’s position is complicated by the attitude of many of his supporters in the Dail, who have the support of an influential body in the Free State army.—Ans.N.Z. Cable Assn.
