N signed the Anglo -.Irish agreement were plenipotentiaries. Another ..criticism of de Valera is that, even though he is justified in holding the view he does, he should not have issued his manifesto until the meeting of the Dail Eireann. There 1:5 no doubt expressed here, however, of de Valera's sincerity. He is upholding the principles of the re- i public declared three years ago by the Irish people. The treaty, in some measure, contravenes these princi ples. ' Huge Majority1' Sure Dail Kireann may decide to leave to the country the acceptance or re jection of the .document. In tho case of a plebiscite it is predicted that 99 out of everyl'OO Irish people will sup port the treaty. In the present dispute it is interest ing to note that Bishop Fogarty. one of dc Valera's leading supporters and his nrincipal constituent, lias declar ed 111 favor of the treaty, saying: '"It is well worth the price paid. Ireland is now free to live her own life without interference." It is certain that there have been no recriminations between de Valera, - land Griffith and Collins. If a n TBR n p in W -I lata.
