Ne York; Feb. 3rd.—Great Britain’s gradual recovery to normal or pre war conditions is forcible illustratedin the re- cent upward course of her exchange. Two years ago, February 4th, 1920, de- mand bills on London suffered the most disastrous collapse in this market with all other international curreacies falling to the unprecedented low quotation of $3.19. Today. on the continuance of a ten day advance and on buying which shows to trace of foreign origin the same bills found ready sale at 4.30 7/8. This marked a recovery in the two years of al- most 1 12 in the pound sterling, but is SY R - 51. LU uUd son Vi Ignorance of public affairs is no longer excused: it is not sufficient to dep2nd on books: you must keep pace with the pro- gress of current history. The busy man or woman cannot take time to wade through the great padded daily papers, while the monthly reviews are too_ency- plopedie, heavy and stale. THE PATH- FINDER just fills the bill without empty- ing the pockethook. In it not only is the PR ¢ ; skilfully and imparti%lly e but a large variety of general macter is included, making it—as 2,000,000 devoted readers testify—the brightest, most helpful, and most enter- taining paper published, regardless of price. Cut out other periodicals, if ne- cessary, but insist on having the Path- finder, whatever is worth while you will find condensed in this paper; there is more real meat in it than in any dozen other publications put together. Take the OLD RELIABLE and you will ave the best there is. When a paper keeps growing and growing for 28 years as the Pathfinder has, there must be good reasons for its success; time weeds out the useless, while the fittest survive. What the dictionary is to languace, the Pathfinder is to current history; it is an incex to the world’s progress, essential for all up-to-date people. Tts cost is nothing in proportion to its value—only $1 for 52 issuss. Single one-year subsecri' tions accepted at the dollar rate; three-year at $2; five- year at $3; five subsecriptions to one or more addresses 60 cents a year, per sub- scription. Combination rates offere! by the Pathfinder duplicated. B. R. LARSEN, Christiansted, V. 1.1 still far below the price of 4.86 5/8 at whiah this form of exchange ruled before pening of the world war. London, Feb. 3rd.—Sir James Craig, the Ulster Premier, declared in a state- ment issued this morning -that he had been told by Mr. Collins, head of the Southern Ireland Provisional G vernment at their conference i Dublin yesterday that Mr. Collin had made promise of bringing into the Irish Free State almost half of North Ireland, including Fermanagh, Tyrone large parts of Ar- magh and Down, Londonderry City, Enniskillen and Newry Sir Jamessaid he had suggested to Mr Collins a weeks ad- journment for consideration of the situa- tion regarding the boundaries between Ulster and South Ireland, but that Mr. Collins had replied, that the differ- ences separating them were so wide, that postponement would be wuseless. The Ulster Premier’s statement was made to the press after he had conferred with Mr. Winston Churchill, the Colonial Sec- retery at the Colonial Office, following Sir James arrival from Dublin. In it Sir James emphasized the gravity which he attached to the hitch in the negotia- tions mith the Provisional Government I went‘o Dublin yesterday, he said, to discuss®with Mr. Collins certain out- standing questions hoping to promote peace in Ireland. It was oniy when 1 #iarted from Belfast however, and read- ing the morning papers that I suspected a change of attitude on the part of Mr, ®sllins. [ noticed that he had received deputations of the Sinn Feiners from different parts of Ulster the previous day, demanding that their areas should be taken into the Free State Mr (ollins replied to the deputations that they were only trying to force open the door and using unnecessary energy in doing so. Mr. Arthur Griffith, who also was pres- ent said he and his fellow delegates had urged the claims of these distriets for: weeks during the negotiations in London and the result was that the Free State should extend over Ireland, that Ulster should have the option of voting herself out within a month, but that if she did so a boundary commission woald be set up to decide if such distriets shouald come into the Free State. That, said Mr. Griffith was the position today, I decided, continued the Ulster Premier, to have the matter cleared up immediately, 30 as to nbhviate even a shadow of {urther mis- understanding, and [ have to admit that in the conversations with Mr. Collinsg vesterday the difficalties rezarding the Ulster boundaries have revived in an in- tensified form. I am offering to lay down my views for the whnle British Cabinet added Sir James, and will consult my colleagues in our local Parliament and in the Imperial Paruament regarding the steps to be taken in consequence of the serious situation, one which is not of my making, but which I earnestly tried to avoid. London, Feb. 2nd. -The cendition of Sir Donald MacMaster, M. F. for the Cherstsey division ¢f Surrey, who has been seriously ill for months, is now very sarious. Rome, Feb. 4th. -Another ballot for the election of a successor to Pope Bene- dict was taken by the conclave of the sacred college this morning, but without result, no candidate receiving a sufficient number of votes. Washingion, Feb. 4th.-.Tust after three o’clock this morning the sixth plenary ses- sion of the arms conference got under way for the final acts of the history making events, which have conSumed exactly twelve weeks. Todays programme was a formal completion of the Far Eastern pro- gramme by the adoption of several treaties already agreed to and to clear the way for the final session Monday, when an address by President Harding will close the con- ference as it was begun on November 12th.
