Prime Minister Lloyd George's re
ply to the latest note from Eamonn
De Valcra which was dispatched to
Dublin early today, follows:
"Sir: His Majesty's government
has given close and earnest consid
eration to the correspondence which
has passed between us since their
invitation to you to send delegates
to a conference at ' Inverness.
"In spite of their sincere desire for
peace, and in spite of the more con
ciliatory tone of your latest com
munications, they cannot -enter into
a conference upon the basis of this
correspondence.
"Notwithstanding your personal
assurance to the contrary, which
they much appreciate it might be
argued in the future that' the ac
ceptance of a conference on this
basis had involved them in a recogni
tion which no British government
can accord. On this " point they
must guard themselves against any
possible doubt. There is no purpose
to be served by any further inter-
cnatige 01 explanatory ana argumen
tative communications upon this
subject. The position taken up by
bis majesty! government ' is funda
mental to. the existence of the Brit
ish empire and they, cannot alter it

flperaJior' vtith your "delegates, an

every possibility of & settlement by
personal 'discussion. - ' T1
"The proposals which we have already-made
have been taken by the
whole 'world as proof that our en
deavors for reconciliation and settlement-
are no empty form and we
reel that conference, not correspond
ence, is the most practical arid hope
ful way to an understanding uch as
we ardently desire to achieve.-,
"Wie therefore send you httewith
a fresh invitation to a conference in
London on October 11, where we
can ; meet your' delegates us the
spokesman of the people whom you
repretent with a view to ascertain
ing how the association of It eland
with'? the community of nations
known as the British empire may be
best reconciled with Irish national
aspirations, I am sir, yours faithfully
' i "LLOYD GEORGE."

Tokio. Sept. ..-( Ry The Asso
ciated Pre.) A a part of her fun
duiitctttul policy at the Washington
conference Japan will not permit the
"scrapping" of the "21 demand
agreement with China and will not
tolerate interference in the Shantung
question, t wat declared to The At
Miciated I'm yesterday by a Jap
anese in nn authoritative position
He averted Japan considered these
matters as accomplished fact which
concerned China and Japan directly
In the general discussion of Far
Eastern matters, however. Japan
was said to be willing frankly to
cxpl.vn her position regarding these
questions.
I he Government m preparing to
istic hpeeial instruction!! to the Jap
anese delegates concerning the limi
tation of armament. ays the Nichi
Niehi Shi. Hun. It is indicated that
the project for the building of eight
battleships and eiuht battle cruisers
originated in the idea that this pro-
cram was necessary for the national
defense, but that Japan has come to
recognize the project lias lost its
original significance.
She is therefore prepared in agree
ment with the powers, to carry out
such curtailment, it is said as would
make her navy strong enough to
maintain the peace of the Far East.
The choice, of Prince Tokugawa as
head of the Japanese delegation
meets with national favor and gives
