Of Treaty.
By JOHN STEELE.
lilraio , Trlbtin t'Mblr, ( op; right, 10JI,
Dublin, Dec. 24. The adjourn
ment of Dail Eircann for Christmas
doubtless will save the treaty- with
Great Britain, The members went to
their homes Thursday night and will
be subject to the pressure of the
opinion of their constituents, an
opinion overwhelmingly in favor of
the treaty, though this opinion may
not induce all the "die-har.d" repub
licans to vote for ratification.
Some have ' committed themselves
against the treaty, no matter what
the people say, but several may be
persuaded to abstain from voting.
Such abstention would favor the
eventual passage of the treaty.
Lor a week I have, sat in the dail
listening to debate which from the
point of honesty and even of ora
tory, is on a high plane. From the
point of parliamentary order, it fell
short of the standards of the olde"
assemblies.
But that is a fault that time will
correct. This was a remarkable as
sembly in which votes really were
influenced by oratory. Those op
posed to ratification gained day by
day by the fiery appeals of women
and old men, notwithstanding the
fact that the element for ratification
had the advantage of most of the
best oratory and hard reasoning.
The best literary performance, that
ot Mini Mary MacSwiney, wiu
ipoiled by ioo great lenyth. She
spoke for three hours. DeValer
also spoke well, but too frequent!)
abandoned argument to appeal to
passion. From all points of view,
the speech which was the greatest
and which wilt live in history was
that of Cavan Dully for ratification
Lasy to St'H Goods to Women,
Says 'Advertising Specialist
''It's easy tp sell goods to women,
"Charles II. .Mcintosh, Chicago,
president of the Associated Ad Clubs
of the World, told the Adveitisuig
Svlling league at a special luncheon
to mark his visit here, yesterday
iion'n, in the Chamber of Commerce.
"Show a woman a thing that's
stylish and the right color and
she'll buv it.
','But with men it's different. Real
salesmanship is required to get their
money, ihey usually buy in a hurry
and the salesman who gives them
services and suggestions will make
the best sales, record with them.
