Valera, who is styled by Ms followers as' President of the Irish Republic. inviting him to attend a conference at London in 1 company e ith Sir James Craig, Premier of NorCh Ireland. ''to explore to the utmost every possibility of settlement."' Phrases in the letter guarantetd see conduct and the right of De Valera to' choose any colleague he migh: wish to accompany him. This left the way open foe the Sinn Fein leader to demand the release of several memberksf hi Cabinet arid ottpo active spirits in the Sinn Fein organization who have been captured and imprisoned. Publication of the letter, which was in its terms similar to one sent to Sir James Craig, created a pro- found sensation in Ireland as well u throughout Brita.n. It was felt that, whatever might be the resuit of the rxeliminaries to the conference or of the conference itself. nothi..g but good could come of this attempt to carry out the wiehes expressed in the remarkable speech made by the King at the opening of the Ulster Parliament for a happier and a un- ited Ireland. Indeed, that speech was the basis of Lloyd George's plea for the con- ferente. There is • -a.fervni hope in most sections of the British press that :he end of turmoil in Ireland may be the result of the proposed conference. It would, of course. be a happy thing !Or Britain, for the Empire and tor the world. if such a conference reachA an acceptable basis of settlement. It would, of course. be an stouruiing victory tOr Lloyd George also. is no disparagement of him to say that a politician as well as a stetesman. t doubting his passionate sincerity rnd to the lrish troUbles. it is obvious hat his move placed upon other shoulders ny responsibility for failure to reath that oat. Curiously enough the letter follow a report that De Valera had been cap( ed and released by British forces making raid in Ireland. This was denied from rtain source . but was repeated in greate detail and emphasis It was added thatsn only had De Valera beeri allowed to go. b that the British have always had him u der observation and could have arrert Finn whenever they choi se since his retu to Ireland. His capture and detention fo a few hours were attributed to the ignoran of a new officer that a general order exe !ed him from being held a prisoner. h t im- portant documents, it is alleged. were taken from the house DrValera occu , hut these were retained. There is ev iiidication. it is declared, that if the tea ference suggested by Lloyd George shoul end in failure Ireland will be put under martial law and a mart ngorc us campaign will be carried on against all diourbers of t be peace, ' STAYED IN BED Canadians do not like to see questions of purely British policy discussed by some sections of the American Federation of I Labor conventions in an unfriendly spint, 1 it remains the fact that its action in many! matters of Labor policy purely have a I certain rear: here on organzations other than those affiliated with the Federation. : The rtceot .abor party convention in Britain and the American Federation meeting now dealt with were both marked , by victories fur the elements that are content to make haste slowly as against wings that believe in direct action. what- ; ever else they may call it. mountains.

It is definitely stated by Mayor Couzens of Detroit that he hair been conferring with officials of the Ontario Hydro - Electric Power Commission -with a view to getting frorn 25.000 to 60,000 horsepower of electncal energy developed at Niagara Falls delivered in the Michigan city. ! Negotiations are already under way for a I contract for municmal power and light- ; ing for a period of ten years. At this ' time W'inds Y. just are* the river from ' Detroit. is the farthest point to which Ontario power developed at Niagara Falls 1 is delivered -a distance of somewhat over 200 miles. At present Ontario could not sell power to Detroit ; all that she is developing is needed by the 273 municip- alities in the vanous power zones who are customers of the Hydro. But it is again ! stated. etnphatical y. that the hrst unit I of power horn the great Chippewa ! canal project will be ready in a , few months' time. ThuOtanal, it is esti- ! mated, will have a total capacity of 550,- 1000 ha sepower as its max2mum. A generating capacit y of 275,000 horsepower will soon be available of this It has been intimated recently that the interests tri New York City are anxious to obtain 200.000 horsepower from the Hydro pending the com,rletion of ,a projected eight -mile powe2 canal on their own side of the Niagara I. ails. This would furnish an immediate market. should the proposal be carried through. tha; would utilize all spare power generated by the chipoewa canal at full capacity. Proper precautions would 'have to be taken to see that, in the event of a sudden expansion of the demsnd in Ontario b•efore the American canal was comp'eted, this Province would have the right to cancel any contracts made with Amencan interests and take all the power itself. To the millions who have visted Niagara Falls their beauty has been the chief consideration for most. Comparatiyely kw have given thought to the utilitarian value of these volumes of water. But the report of a projected big power canal on the American side raises the question again as to how long the Falls will remain as an object of scenic beauty. When the Chippewa canal is ompleted Ontario will have some $210.• 000 tnvested in Hydro projects The 27 municipal ties now taking Hydro pow are using an aggregate of 410,000 horse wer. It is of Interest to note that the r t of the ? Canadian and American nmneers on the teanability of the St. La rence deep waterway, kom Lake Ontari o the sea. is now ready ahd has been hand to the international joint commivion. It 'estimates the cost at Sj50.000.000 an sures that 1.750,000 horsepower could developed at the watertalis of the te locks planned.

The workers on the one hand whil e agreeing to a reduction have an assured standard wage and a share in the profits. At the same time they abandon their demand for a national pool of profits and the nationalization of the mines. The owners on their part agree to a less radical cut in waees than at first decided upon. and accept the profit-sharing plan out- lined.
