The Irish railway situation apparently has resolved itself into a contest between the government and Sinn Fein, and all the moves on each side are calculated from that point of view. If there is to be a general stoppage of all traffic each side is determined to make the other responsible for it, and there will be an argument as to whether it is a strike or a lockout. The government has been accumulating transport, and has no difficulty in conveying any quantity of guns and munitions to any part of Ireland. It has therefore not chosen to force the pace by tendering munitions for the Irish goods trains, which on the refusal of the railway men to handle then: would have meant depriving Ireland ot many of the necessities of life. The trouble which has occurred has been solely on the passenger trains and has been mainly concerned wih the carriage of small parties of policemen or of troops who are being usee as supplementary to the police. At first when the railwaymen refused to carry them the soldiers or police took it calmly and returned to their barracks. Later on the government issued an order that the soldiers or police should sit tight in the railway carriages and insist on being carried. They were also directed to present themselves at the next train starting for their destination. Hence a series of spasmodic holdups of trains all over the country which cannot be relieved till the police decide to withdraw. Wherever the police Insist on being carried the trains cease to run beyond that station, and the railwaymen responsible are dismissed. But the passenger trains which do not stop at that station are unaffected, and run through as usual. On the Midland line this has meant that trains from Dublin cannot get past Athenry and Castlerea, while trains up to Dublin still run. The driver fireman and guard starting from Dublin convey their train as far as the point where the police want to get on. They refuse to go any further, and there is a regular daily list of dismissals.

Sir James Eric Drummond, secretary-general of the League of Nations, has just notified the members of the League of Nations that an office for the registration and publication of treaties has been set up In accordance with the terms of the memorandum approved by the council of the League at Its meeting in Rome In May. A statement issued from the secretary-general's office says: "Article 18 of the Covenant of the League of Nations reads: 'Every treaty or international engagement entered into hereafter by any member of the League shaH be forthwith registered with the secretariat and shall as soon as possible be published by it. No such treaty or international engagement shall be binding until so registered.' "And the council of the League of Nations declared in its memorandum of May 19, 1920: 'Publicity has for a long time been considered as a source of moral strength in the administration of national law. It should equally strengthen the laws and engagements between nations. It will promote public control. It will promote public interest, and it will remove causes for distrust and conflict. Publicity alone will enable the League of Nations to extend a moral sanction to the contractual obligations of its nembers. It will, moreover, contribute to the formation of a clear and indisputable system of international law ' " English clergymen are forming a trade union to get better pay and working conditions.
