No--* Speaker MaeNeiU as DaU Eireann convened for continuation of the treaty debate. "We will sit all night if necessary. We want to conclude the business berore ChrlstE- ;;S. There will be no limitation on the ■length of the speeches. It appears the ■ treaty will be ratified by a small majority. but In any event arrangements ■ will be made for a general vote Uuon the ■ •abject.’’ I Deputy O'Kelly attacked the oath of Bfcllegiance saying. ■ “I will never take an oath of allegiance ■to a king of England. The English ■ kings have been peosecutlng Ireland for ■rxo years.” , TREATY OF “SUBJECTION AM) SERVITUDE.” O’Kelly, who is minister of education In the Sinn Fein cabinet, characterized the pact as a "treaty of subjection and j servitude." "It puts four Gibrattars and four aerial •tatiops on our coast,” added the minister. The most dramatic speech of the debate was made by Mrs. Thomas Clarke, widow of a member of the Dail who had been executed by the British. She vigor- , ously opposed ratification of the treaty, j "When I last saw my husband in May, i 3916. he was about to be shot,” said Mrs. Clarke. “But there was a flash of victory in his eyes. He believed he had saved his Own soul by his devotion and that he was helping to save Ireland by his death. lie believed Ireland would never submit until she got absolute freedom. My mother ■hared a similar fate as my husband. I hope no Irishman will take the wrong j turning at this critical moment.” OFFICIAL ARMY 61 TPORTS TREATY. Richard Mulcahy, quartermaster gen- j eral of the Irish republican army, sup- ' ported the treaty, saying: “No one wants a treaty of occupation ' by which our ports will be held by the : English. De Valera’s alternative to the I treaty under discussion has not been fair- ] ly treated by the adherents of the Irisn ; past, but at the same time the followers j of De Valera have not been fair. They h3v e failed to see that either acceptance ; or rejection of the alternative propo- ; ■als might mean political chaos ar.d per- , haps war. I wish to make it plain, how- ■ ever., that I myself do not fear war. It ■eems to be only a question >f the King •nd this is only a bogey. The question ol' sovereignty must r> st with the people.” REVOLT THREATS

Its Dublin correspondent: “Disastrous forms of opposition to the British-Irlsh treaty are being organized. “The old ‘Fenian’ element certainly would have continued the separatist struggle, but without the assistance of Eamonn de Valera It would have made a poor showing. “The only hope now in the event of ratification is that De Valera will be Strong enough to hold in chck the most dangerous elements of this party. “Reliable news about some of the battalions of the Irish republican army is disturbing. “Sinn Fein clubs are being revived in many parts of Ireland on the basis of an extreme revolutionary program.” RICH REALTOR SHOT TO DEATH Plumbers Discover Body of Man Supposed to Be Away From Home.

Senator Asks Conference on World Finance Would Invite Russia, Germany and Other Nations to Discuss Economics. WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.—The President would be authorized to call an international economic and financial conference under a joint resolution offered in the Senate today by Senator France, Republican of Maryland.

FRENCH PRESS DEMANDS FOR LIGHTER SHIPS Submarine Issue Becomes as Critical as Former Jap Contention. LONDON, Dee. 22.—Premier Brland of France today handed American Ambassador Harvey a memorandum contatrlng certain information requested by Secretary of State Hughes on naval armaments. Ambassador Harvey immediately cabled the information to Washington. By GEORGE R. nOLMES. WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.—A stage equally as critical as that presented by Japan’s demand for an Increased capital ship ratio was reached by the armament conference today when France laid before the assembled powers her program of auxiliary ships—submarines, cruisers and torpedo boats —the possession of which her spokesmen deem vital to France's safety. The strictest secrecy surrounded the French program. The French worked it out themselves and the spokesmen of the other great powers professed ignorance tefore the session ns to the exact nature of the French proposals. The little submarine has replaced the big battleship as the fighting issue of the conference. Fpon the ability of the powers to reach an agreement concern- I lng submarines rests the whole success ; of the conference. This much was ad- i mitted as the delegates assembled behind closed door? In the Pan-American building to start the bail roiling. MINIMEM DEMANDS BELIEVED 50,000 TONS. While the French remain silent about their auxiliary craft program, the be- | lief prevails among other delegations that M. Sarrault and Admiral De Bon will demand a minimum of 50,000 tons of undersea fighting craft essential to French safety. This figure is only 4,000 tons less than proposed for Japan in the original Hughes program and it Is regarded as certain that any such figure for France will meet with bitter opposition from British representatives. Great Britain will mate an eloquent plea and a hard fight for the abolition of the submarine, but her spokesmen already are aware that the fight Is lost. Americans, Japanese, French and Italians all -wish to retain the undersea boats as an offset to Britain's preponderance in the shipping world. But Britain will make her fight anyhow, that tho reedrd may show she tried and failed. The British then will concentrate their efforts at lowering tho tonnage allotments to the last possible degree. FRENCH VICTORY PARTLY WON. The French went Into the meeting with a victory partly won. It was th> original intention or the conference fri mer* to ' have all navies regulated by 'the ratio j system—s<H).iK) tons of capital si.<i,s call- ! lng for 90,000 tons of submarines and commensurate auxiliary craft and, is In ! the case of Japan, 300.000 tons of capital i ships calling for 54,000 tons of undersea ' craft. If this ratio were carried out in j the case of Franee it would leave her j approximately 32,000 tons of submarines whi'-h she considers entirely satisfactory. !

The other powers have yielded on this question. It was learned officially. The strength of each nation in each auxiliary fighting 6hlp will be determined on a system of national needs instead of a system of ratio. The ultimate tonnage that will be allotted to Frauce. therefore. will depend upon how much she can convince the other powers that she needs. EXPERTS SPLIT OYER USE OF GAS IN WARFARE WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.—A split between the American experts and those of other nations over the question of gas in warfare—with America standing out alone against its total abolition—was disclosed today In Italian official quarters. The American experts have taken the attitude, according to an Italian spokesman, that while the abolition of gas Is highly desi.-able. It Is impossible of accomplishment because no nation with chemical factories can be relied upon to refrain from using it in war time.

WATTERSON DIES IN JACKSONVILLE (Continued From Page One.) enlisted as private and served successively ns aide-de-camp to General S. Forrest nnd Polk. In 1802-63 he edited the ChnttanooT-s Rebel, printed in n shop on wheels and moving in evasi on of Northern armies. The war over, Watterson went to Louisville. In 18.18 he merged the Journal and W. N. Halderman’s Democrat Into the Courier- Journal. He soon became known as the country's foremost proponent of a acidified North and Fontb. Watterson probably struck the highest note in the scale of personal journalism. Even today one thinks of Watterson upon hearing the name of the Courier Journal. "Marse Henry” ns he was called, traveled no broad middle roa 1 Ills trenchant pen stuck Unmercifully Into persona and projects he opposed. Those persona nnd things he favored benefited by ns graceful expression as ever found Its way to print. Watterson has been praised as one of the greatest essayists of the age. He had many elosc friends nnd many warm enemies. But let a friend whose cause he championed deviate one step from Watterson’s conception of right, they came to a parting of the ways. Watterson and Cleveland were friends, j played poker together. But they fits- I agreed and Watterson's pen turned in ! full force against him. “Marge Henry” originated the phrase, ; “tariff for revenue only.” It Is gener- | ally believed Watterson and Cleveland disagreed on the tariff Issue. The editor called the President “the 1 wrecker and miner of his party," “a ; bull la a china shop.” But Watterson disagreed with Koose- ; velt, yet revered him. In the heat of political battle he called him “Half a . Southern and all r Rebel.” He styled himself a "Lincoln Democrat and a Jefferson Republican.” In later years Watterson traveled a i great deal, spending some time In Europe, I "studying people.” He hobnobbed with diplomats and j royalty. He sold his paper to Judge Robert \ Bingham In 1918 nnd became the coun- j try’s first “editor emeritus,” writing j editorials as fancy or event impressed j him. During (he wnr he penned the phrase that was used broadcast in the call to arms—"To Ilell with the Hohenzollerns ! and tho Hapsburgs 1” He finally dropped all connection with j the paper and published his memoirs ! and autobiography under the title, j “Looking Backward.” The memoirs appeared concurrently In the Saturday Evening Post and the Courier-Journal. The last months of the journalist's life were spent on his farm near .leffersontown, Ky. He went to Florida for the winter because of falling health. Henry Waterson spent a hair-century of his life In Kentucky but the Nation claimed him as Its own.

No one can fill his place. A multitude of admiring friends will share the sorrow that the death of the Illustrious editor has brought upon Mrs. Watterson so many years his companion and comrade.” MARKS END OF MARVELOUS CAREER LONDON, Dee. 22.—Ambassador George Harvey, himself a veteran editor, today declared the death of Col.
