Free State's League
Standing, Opponents
Say, is not Individual
DIBLIN, Feb. 7—The attitude of
the British government towards reg
istration of the Anglo-Irish treaty
with the League of Nations summed
up in the declaration that the treaty
was an internal concern of the Brit
ish empire and of no international
significance, has served to strength
en the position of the Ulster and of
the Republican parties in their antag
onism towards the league.
In this matter the two extremes of
Irish politics find themselves on com
mon, ground in disparaging the im
portance of the Free State’s member
ship in the league, both contending
that the Free State has no weight
in the league apart from Great Brit
ain.
The Republicans contend that the
recently expressed attitude of Great
Britain towards registration of the
Irish treaty confirms their asser
tions, while the Ulstermen deny that
the treaty was properly a treaty at
all.
Meanwhile, pro-league opinion in
Ireland has been expressed on the
treaty question by the recent sub
1 mission by the Irish League of Na
tions Society to the international or
ganization of a protest against the
British action.
The Irish Society, which is non-po
litical, numerically small, and is head
jed by Senator Janies Douglas, vice
I president of the Free State senate,
: argued that the treaty was rightly
| and necessarily registered and that
failure to register would have been
repudiated by the Free State of the
covenant.
