LABOUR'S DECISION
STRICTLY QUALIFIED SUPPORT FOR REPUBLICAN PARTY WILL PUT COSGRAVE OUT Rec. Feb. 22, 11.10 p.m. LONDON, Monday. The Dublin Labour Party has announced that it will put Mr. Cosgrave out, and Mr. de Valera in a position of dependence on it. The party will impose strict limitations to the Republieans' programme, particularly with regard to tinkering with the Treaty, though this is uniilcely to prove an obstacle to an alliancp between Labour and Republicans, as Mr. de Valera has already announced that he will again consult the electorate hefcre denying the Treaty. On present prospects Mr. de Valera will have a voting majority in the new Assembiy of at least seven, but may have only three. Indeed the final result may depend on the polling at Leitrim. When asked regarding Irish representation at the Ottawa Conference, Mr. de Valera replied: "Our trade with the Dominions is so small that negotiations may be eerried on nearer home than at Ottawa."
