Dail Breann Cabinet
Considers Proposals
Dublin, Dec. 3. (By The Asso
ciated Press.) Members of the Dail
Eireann cabinet assembled today to
consider the British ' government's
latest proposals for an Irish peace
settlement. ' There is little optimism
as to its decision,- and - Sinn ' Fein
peace delegates to London are re
ported as believing the revised terms
will be unacceptable to Eamonn
De Valera and his advisers. v
The exact nature of the proposals
is not: known but they .are. said to
be based on an all-Ireland parlia
mentary, government. Ulster, it is
understood, would be required to re
main in this parliament at least six
months, when 'she could withdraw
at her option.
One version of the new terms is
that they deal with the Sinn Fein.'s
objection to swearing allegiance to
the crown by providing .that , alleg
iance be .' sworn to . the Irish free
state, the commonwealth of nations
known as the British empire and to
the king as head of that community
of nations.

Results of Yesterday's Confer,
ence of "Big 3n Under
Study by Japanese
Dec. 3. (By the. As
sociated Press.)' Negotiations in the
naval ratio question were practically
at a standstill while the Japanese
delegates awaited furthej word from
Tokio.' " - '
,By today the results of yester
day's conference between the princi
pal American, British and Japanese
delegates were under study by the
Japanese cabinet and the diplomatic
avisory council.
All indications were that whatever
had been proposed as a means of
bringing the United Statei and
Japan together did' not involve any
abadonmcnt of the 5-5-3 ratio pro
posed by the United State and sup
ported by Great Britain but rather
concerned other considerations
which the Japanese regard as nec
ccssary to them.
Question of Fortifications..
fliirf nmono' these was understood
to be the question of further fortifi
cation of the Americ-n bases in the
Pacific, which the Japanese wish to
see checked. The relation of forti
fier! hasis is such to fleet ratio that
there was a suggestion the Japanese
might regard the 5-5-3 proposal 's
nn) jnmncistent with their standard
of national security if details regard
ing them could be arranged. ."
There was a decided impression
among other delegates, not repre
sented in yesterday's conference of
the "Big Three" that a means of ap
proach to a settlement had been
found outside of any alteration of the
5-5-3.
In general discussion, of the secret
negotiations there is a general feeling
that "the Anglo-Japanese: alliance is
being dealt with and that there soon
will appear a plan, approved by bftth
Great Britain and Japan, to abandon
that much discussed agreement and
substitute it with some sort of agree
ment to which the United States
might be a party. -' - '
Arbitration Treaties.
One suggestion is for a set of ar
bitration treaties between the three
powers; with, a provision, that Japan
would not be involved in a war with
out six months' or a year's notice.
Another consideration .being dis
cussed involved Japan's p'ositjpn in
China.
The general feeling among dele
gates is that concessions to Japan, if
they may be properly so termed, may
be nude, which will cause it ta accept
the ,5-5-3. intact.-, , -..-,v

Season at Louisville,
But Frost Mp Near

gardeners here have for the past
few days enjoyed the unusual thrill
ot cutting roses from outdoor plants
Hut frost and cold weather, tore
casted today by weather bureau of'
ticials, may end the (realc season
that made the roses bloom.
In a number of gardens, buds
which had resisted the early frosts
bloomed under the urging of warm
rains and sunshiny skies. Some of

their leaves by autumn frosts, fur
nished their quota of full-petaled
nowers.
The gardeners derlare that the
roses are exceptionally frasrrant and
beautiful because they have not been
attacked by insects.
