IN SEVEN VOTES OF 1E1NGTHEADDRESS Amendment Regretted King's Speech Did Not Assure Integrity of Six Ulster Counties; Carson Charges Government With Breach of Faith and Asks Whether It Is Handmaid of Sinn Fein. LONDON, Feb. 8—The house of lords also debated the Irish matter today, Lord Londonderry moving an amendment to the address regretting that the King's speech gave no assurance of the Integrity of the six county areas. Careen Charges Breach of Faith. Lord Carbon, supporting the nine nd pie nt, rtlterly attacked the government for a toreach of faith. The joy bells, he said, had -stopped ringing over the great peace. In Ireland, and the people were now brought down to the realities of tho situation. Alluding to the northern kidnaping, he asked whether parliament was to heeome tho handmaid of Sinn Fein outrages n Ireland. Lord Carson complained that tho prime minister hod treated the boundary question in a frivolous manner, and that there had heen n dishonorable breach of faith, lit? demanded that the government declare itself clearly one way or the other on the subject. Birkenhead Answers, Lord High Chancellor Birkenhead, replying on behalf of the government, said he ventured the bold prediction that when fuller Information was forthcoming, It would be found that these acts of violence had not proceeded from any one under control of the provisional government, and he would be astounded If they had not proceeded from men who would be repudiated and punished. If possible. It was not surprising ln a country lately occupied hy 70,000 troops, that thero should be a number of lrreconclllables and lawless men, but It was to be hoped that when the voice of Ireland waa heard In the elections, the party of moderation would be supported by nn overwhelming majority. Iatord Birkenhead warmly appealed for moderation In speech on both sides, so that the spirit of reason would prevail, ond Sir James Craig and Michael Collins would arrive at a clearer adjustment of views. If they failed to achieve that happy result, there remained only the treaty, and he wns conscious of no ambiguity In that. •Viscount Grey Participate*. Viscount Grey nlso appealed to the government to make It clearer whether under the treaty there would be partition areas. Lord Londonderry's amendment was rejected, 46 to 39, only the small majority of seven for the government.

British Government Authorizes Ulster to Employ Britttt Troops; Collins, Called On (or Explanation, States Raid* Due to Apprehension Over Fate of Deny Prisoners; Sir James Craig Sends Fiery Manifest From London; Military Will Guard Boundary; AaV ! nal Argument, Sayi Chamberlain, Why Provisional / /emment Should Bel Speedily Given Authority. LONDON, Feb. 8.—The Irish Bltua tion took a startling turn today with the news of wholeeale and organised kidnaping raids against prominent Plater Unionists in the early hours of tbe morning. The numerous victims, including n-any special constables who were dispatched to aid in - topping the raids, were spirited t> unlown destinations. The capture of a score of raiders showed that the/ were attached to the "Irish Repuhl- an army." Winston Sponce- Churchill, secretary for the colonies, was able to an n.-unce in parliament late tonight that a response* had been received from Mr. Collins explaln'.hg that the raids were due to apprehension over tho fate of the Derry prisoners, and thnt tbe provisional crovcrnment was tak- "ng necessary sttps to secure their release. It waa announced that the men captured in Sllgo had already returned t ■■ their home, but whether a«< a result o:' the Imperiil gu\ernment's action is not known. News of releases elsewhere have been received. Troops to Guard Boundary. The northern government was unable tn invoke the aid of the military, and had to depend upon the special forces, which apparently were not strong enough to prevent the kld- naplngs. The northern government appealed* to the imperial government, which took prompt steps to meet the situation, authorizing the Belfast gov* •rnment to employ British troops for guarding thc boundaries, at the same time sending a message to Michael Collins, the provisional president, de mending that proper measure* be In itiated for the release of the captured men and prevention of a repetition of outrages. Sir James Craig, the Ulster premier, who is ln London for the purpose of spurring the Imperial government Into action, has sent a stirring manifesto to the Ulster people, charging the British government with responsibility for the outrages, and declaring Ul Hter's determination not 10 yield anything. Arthur Griffiths, president of the DiiI Kireann. when Heen In Ijondon tonight, confirmed the views niready given hy Mr. Collins that the raids were reprisals for the treatment of the Dprry prisoners. Chamberlain Makes Announcement!. LONDON, Feb. 8,—Austen Chamberlain, the government leader, made these announcements in the house of ommons early tonight. He said that on receipt of a telephone message from Colonel Spender, secretary of the Ulster cabinet, on behalf of Sir James Craig, the premier, detailing the kid- napir j tho members of the gortrn* menf ■ re met and decided to semi telef s to the general officer com- mar „ the troops in Ireland, and] to ' • .ae] Collins, new head of tha pro ■ nal government. M.il have already called on the) provisional government," added Mr, Chamberlain, "to release the prison-* ers taken acrops the border. Thei troops ln northern Ireland will act int support of the civil authorities and in defense of the frontiers until a new one is established, whenever the gov-* ernraent of northern Ireland requeatai their assistance." The telegram to Michael Collins repeated the Information from Colonel Spender, and ndded: Wlra to Collins. If anything approximating this bad happened, his majesty's government: takes the gravest view of the situation. Such acts are a breach of tha true and Imperil the treaty. They will be glad to hear from you at onci if you are taking Immediate steps to insure the release of the prisoners and provide against any recurrence) of such outrages." Mr. Chamberlain's statement was made in reply to ■ hot protest ff*m Capt. Charles Oralg, member for Antrim South, and a brother of the Ulster premier, who challenged the government to make clear Ut policy om he boundary question. He warnedl the government that bloodshed trom Inevitable, as the northern government would not allow marauders from the free state to Invade its territory nnd kidnap people and blow un bridges Mr. Chamberlain, after reading his telegram to Michael Collin* and the commander In northern Ireland, added that one reason the government was anxious to get etautory authority for the provisional govern-* ment was that the provisional government might have authority to pre- vent lj.wbref.king and, tf necessary, to punish lawbreakers. The most-age from Colonel Spender read by Mr. Chamberlain, repeated the details of the excesses known to have been committed, and oddedf lhat the northern police had cap- tured 11 men who. It had been proved, belonged to the "Irish Republican, army" from Lei trim, and who WOtw in possession of bombs, revolver* add. transports. Replying to charges by Captain. Crnig that ihe government had made a deiih'-rate attempt to plaoato southern Ireland nt the expense of north Ireland, Mr. Chamberlain denied that Ulster's right would Oo prejudiced by the appointment of *** boundary commission. He also .repudiated the suggestion that the government had broken faith.

President Sir Montagu .pjos uiMIV 'Your dirretors have heen accused of being stampeded into n bargain with the Rank of Montreal. It (s eon- tended that with government assistance no sale of the Merchants* bank assets would have been necessary'. It is true that the hank might have continued buslncsn for n lime at least, by borrowing heavily from the Dominion government. "If the bank had done so however, and continued to curry on. it would have Incurred tho loss or confidence of the public when the government statement appeared showing the reduction In the rest nnd when it he- c-ime known that the dividend would have to be reduced to at leaft half the amount pnid without the bonus In order to build up the rest ogaln. The price of the stock would have fallen immediately to o price below our prcs em offer and there might have been n pnnlc on the exchange, and n 'run' on the bank by depositors. The fact is, however, that owing to the secrecy thnt was ohserved during our negotiations, no rumors of nn alarming nature wer* circulated, alTd notwithstanding the heavy loss in our investment, we ore n long way short of such a disaster. "Your directors feel that the above recital of the facts will acquit them of the charge of having acted without due deliberation. Joint Deal Out of Question.

I hope I hava made lt clear to you thnt the directors adopted the only- wise course open to them, and fhe best in your Interests, and that It is essential to confirm the agreement with the tlnnk of Montreal. The alternative Is one which we hesltmo to contemplate." Sir Montagu also remarked that the Rank of Montreal's offer would not be renewed, and that If the meeting refused to accept it the latter bank would withdraw Its offer. Examiner Reports. Following the president's nddress, II. H. MncKensta presented a synopsis of his report, as follows: Toward the end of August last year Sir Montagu Allan phoned me thnt he nnd other directors of the Merchants' bank felt doubtful if they were correctly lnf<tfmed an to the actual position of the bank, and asked If I would undertake on examination of its business and glvo him a report ns to how It stood., I pointed out that I was very closely associated. In my position as manager of the trust company, with the Bank of Montreal, and that if I made such an examination it might appear to bo-disclosing tho affair* of the Merchants* bank, a rival institution, but I told him that if that point did not create any difficulty nnd if he obtained permission of the Rank of Montreal, I would do so on the understanding that I was making thi.*- examination for the Merchants' bank only, without reference to the Bank of Montreal. "This was duly arranged, and the Bank of Montreal neither sought nor obtained from me any Information regarding the Merchants' bank, nor did they ask for any Information regarding my report until the latter was presented to them later by Sir Montagu. "My report, therefore, did not constitute a report to the Bank of Mon-,, treal. of the assets of the Merchants bank; It was merely for tho Information of the directors of the Merchants' hank, as to »the entries they should make In their books, so that their stotement might pre.sent a correct account of its condition." Sir Montagu moved the formal resolution transferring the bank's business to the Bank of Montreal. N. K. Lnflamme, M. I\, the well- known lawyer, announced amidst laughter that he represented tw.* shares. He asked for more Information than had been supplied by 8|r Montagu. He woWed to know tile date when the directors first feared the bank's position was not sound. Sir Montagu Allan—About August, 1921. It Is very difficult to give exact information on thla. aa theories begin gradually and expand. Mr. Laflamme then asked if the monthly returns were mnde to the government regularly. Sir Montagu—Yes. Mr. Laflamme—V/hen was Mr. MacKenxle's report first submited? Sir Montagu—November >12, 1921. Mr. Laflamme—Were the monthly returns made to the government for thnt month? Sir Montagu—Yes. Mr, Laflamme—Did t.hoy ihOW thc hank ns Intact? Sir Montagu—Yes. Mr. Laflamme, after apologizing for practically crojis-exnminlng the president of tho bank, said that he was only doing so in the Interests of other shareholders, and naked: "Did all the directors, or only some, conceive fears ns to the bank's standing?" Sir .Montagu—I am not sure. It is very hard to say. i Mr. Iattflamme—Tlten, to be. exact, did any beside yourself and the vice president hear of them? Sir Montagu—I don't remember. Did Not Dlnrlow Fnars. Mr. Laflamme—Did you communicate your fears to your fellow directors? If so. to whom? Sir Montagu—I don't remember. Mr. l^aflamme—Is It true that you did not disclose your fears at all? Sir Montagu—I don't remember. Mr. Laflamme—1# there any reason whv you did not do no? Sir Montagu—I don't think so.

Feb. 8.—Now that the shareholders of the Merchants' Bank of Canada have agreed, to absorption of thel" institution 'by the Bank of Montreal, permission of the government will be necessary before the two hanks can be merged. Following tho meeting of the Merchants' bank shareholders application must be made to the government for authority to go on with the undertaking. This application will be dealt with by the treasury board and permission will be granted If the board sees fit to do so. There is no reason to think that It will be refuse-lain the case of the Merchants* bank and the Bank of Montreal.

Mrs. Wlnfleld Dill, now of Windsor. N. R, was living in Halifax at that time snd went through this trying experience and the shock wrecked her nerves. She writes as follows: "I was living ln Halifax at the time of the explosion, and It wrecked my nerves so that I could not do my housework, I would take such nervous spells that 1 would be under the doctor's care. I saw Mllbum's Heart and Nerve Pills advertised, «o I took two boxes and they helped me so much I took six more, and now I am com pletely relieved.

Settlement Policy for Canada Why shouldn't the experience of the soldiers' settlement board be used in framing a general settlement policy for the Dominion? The basis for civilian settlement would be different ih detail, but fundamentally the same as soldiers' settlement work. The report of the board shows that up to the end of 1921, 27,371 returned men have been assisted with loans to the extent of $87,495,815. Of this sum nearly $50,500,000 was for the purchase of land and the removal of encumbrances. It cost, therefore, more than $1800 to provide each man with a farm, so that the era of free land seems to have gone. More than ten millions went for permanent improvements and nearly twenty-seven millions for stock and equipment. It would, of course, be impossible to provide for the ordinary settler on this scale. But he might be assisted in various ways. For instance, it is said that $961,139 was saved by arrangements with manufacturers of implements, harness, etc., and $3,840,909 in reduction from the vendor's option in the case ojf land purchased. In the selection ami purchase of land the government might render substantial assistance to new settlers. Experience in regard to training soldiers in agriculture and overcoming various difficulties would also be of general value. Developments in Science WfieiToile "hears of an American statesman addressing an audience of farmers a thousand miles away with only the atmosphere as a medium, he certainly can be excused for pondering a moment on the possibilities of the forthcoming century. The man who laughs at any idea now, regardless of its absurdity, is likely to be asked to swallow his mirth in a very abort time. Developments of science are coming in such rapid succession that it would seem that the process of evolution must surely be quickened. The changes the present century is making in the living habits of civilized man fnust far surpass in extent at least that which occurred in any previous century. In 1822 the most optimistic dreamer could not have foreseen the state of affairs as they exist today. There seems every reason to believe that a century hence our sons and grandsons will be living amid scenes of which we have scarce imagination to foretell. Men have ventured into the realm of prophecy enough to predict a future existence in which daily life and habits will be carried on in the air. Cities built in the upper regions are no more beyond the pale of possibility than our present systems of travel and communication were to inhabitants of the earth some centuries ago. , What is just as important, if not quite so specatcular, are the strides the world is making in its additions to the store of hu- \ man knowledge. Astronomy I and mathematics have reached / s, period of perfection at which \ the mind must stand aghast. Photographs and records are now being made automatically of objects and movements which do not even make an impression on the human eye. A wonderful instance of the perfection of actence occurred the other day when instruments recorded a shifting of the earth on its axis and the consequent move- Ment of rocks thousands of miles below the sea level in tlu most remotest sections of tha globe. . In the force of these develop- nts would it not be strange there were at some future p discoveries that will upset t decided thoughts and on practically every fflicienf Uftuctk* AsKlpHmon ARE YOU ALWAYS A "OOOD HOUSEKEEPER?" We home-keeping women all like to be known aa "good houiekeepers." Yet there are rare moments when we should Kut something elee before our cood ousekeeping. What le thla something cine? It Id the voice of the heart. For. when our housekeeping duties olash with our answering eome generous impulse of the heart, lt le time to make those duties a secondary consideration. I think I can beat Illustrate what 1 mean by telling you the following truu little story. A few day* ago a nelgti boi-'s child ran In to Bee me, bringing with her an old-time doll that belonged to her grandmother. "What a wonderful dolly!" I exclaimed, "Did your grandmother get It for Christmas or on her birthday?" "No," said the child, "tt wasn't given to her on any special occasion. Her father bought tt for her when she was five years old; she had seen It ln a shop window and she kept walking past lt and looking at it She did want It ■o very badly! Finally ahe went Into the shop and asked the store-keeper If five cents, which ahe had, would buy it. He told her that she would have -to have five dollars, to buy tt. So she went home disappointed. But what do you think? Her daddy went downtown and bought that dolly for her as a surprise! Wasn't that finer' This little story touchod me deeply. Por. tt la the story of a man who dared to defy convention and answer the dictates of hts heart. In the bygone day when that doll was bought, few parents bought their children toys savo on Christmas or a birthday; Indeed, it was considered almost Improvident so to indulge a child. Yet here wss one parent who didn't care what the world thought—who rose above convention to give his little girl a thing that she "wanted so very badly." There ia a message in such a little tale for you and me, housekeeper readers. We are too prone to put convention and the viewpoint of others before our human Impulses. I have seen housekeepers who thought It their stern duty to sweep a room, when an elderly dear one wishod ardently for yarn whieh sho had not the strength to go out and buy for herself—but which would keep her happy and her fingers busy for hours. Of course, our rooms should be swept; but they may be swept tomorrow as well ns today, and we should feel justified In changing Our working schedule, now and then, to do a little errand of love such aa this. And I have seen mother*, who have inot their children's hopefully chorused, "Let's go on a picnic, mother." by a regretful look at the summer sunshine and a reminder that "mother must do her baking." Of course, we should do our baking—but perhaps the children would rather go wlthijuX-ctike for once than mlsi brightening thost only-too-short childhood days with a Joyous picnic. i . "r ' Yes reader friends, the Hchool boy s slangy "Have a Heart!" is a phrase which the average housekeeper tmould heed more frequently than she doe**, because Bhe has allowed her work to rule her. , , (This artlclo was written at the request of a reader who wrote me saying- "Please write some more of your nice ecoldy articles; they do me good.") Tomorrow—Answered Letters. All inquiries addressed to Miss Kirk- man In care of the "Efficient Housekeeping" department will be answered in these columns in their turn. This requires considerable time, haw-aver, owing to the great number received.

It might help some It the manufacturer would use a miniature figure of an undertaker as a radiator cap ornament. Old-timers say that the'unusual thickness of the hides of motorlsta indicates a severe spring for pedestrians. It is really encouraging - the way diplomats turn at last to the sensible thing after every darn-fool scheme has failed. Things might be worse.

Canadian Catechism On Forestry Age of a Tree. Q.—As a school teacher I have been recently asked the question of why n tree should ever die. Can you answer this for me? A.—Theoretically, a tree should never die, for while the old central part ot the trunk may decay this is of.llttle moment so long as now layers are regularly put on at the circumference. The growth of a tree Is entirely in the cambium layer at tho outer edge and not at the heart The fact Is, of course, thut trees succumb ul- ways to external causes. Insect, fungus diseases, fires, excessive cold or drought, are factors that limit the nctuat life .of trees. The redwood trees on the California coast, some of them 80 feet in diameter, have attained an age of from 3000 to 4000 years. There ore also trees on the island of Tenorlfe, off the African coast, which aro believed to be equally as old. Fur-Hearers and Fires. Q.—Some people claim thut forest fires have actually increased the fur bearing animals in t-je rar north. Is this true? A.—The Hudson's Bay company declares such a theory emphatically untrue.

Canada's fur trade is decidedly menaced by the present plague of forest fires. Quebec's Forest Fire Ixmw. q.—la there any way of finding the forest fire loss uf Quebeo province in 1821? A.—According to the provincial forester, Quobec lost 1200 square miles by flro last year. This, of course, represents an enormous loss, and it Is the duty of every citizen who enters the forests of Quebec to join hands with the fire rangers in making a repetition of such loss impossible in 1922. The great majority of fires doing such damage to ono of Quebec's great resources were duo to human carelessne-ss and the attitude of "don't care." Vulue of a Shade Tree. Q,—Is there any way ot estimating financially what a sliado tree in good condition In front of my residence Is worth? Has there been any court decision establishing such a point? A.—In New York state the court established a record by handing down a verdict of $500 each for destruction of a tree by a construction company. In this case an arbitrary value was placed on tho tree ty means of lta diameter, as, for instance, $2 per inch^ That is. a tree 18 Inches lh diameter would be worth $36.

After an unbroken series of victories in the East Kootenay Hockey league, the Sullivan Mine Camp nix met their Waterloo when they clashed with tho Nelson Seniors horo Inst night at the rink. They lost by l score of 6-3. A crowd of between 400 and 500 fan. witnessed the battle, whieh in point of real hockey excitement ranked second to no match of the season. The game was unmarred by any unsportsmanlike tactics, there being only three or four minor penalties, although Referee Bishop passed nothing up. Play opened with the teams foellng each other out. It waa quickly seen that tho visitors had real class. They were a good weighty team of fast travelers, good stick-handlers and goOd shots. Thero was some nice combination play on both forward lines, with very swift checking prior to Richardson's score from center ico In seven minutes. Kimberley carried the battle lo the Nelson end and gave Notman a hot lime. Caldwell had tough luck. On an Individual rii-.li ho pen-rtrated thc Nelson defense, drew out Notman and then nhot wide. Desirrau lost two excellent chancea when his individual burets flxzled out while Grant waited for the pass. In eight mlnutea Desireau took a tumble. Drawing out Caldwell, he passed. Grant* took it like a bird and notched the aocond for Ncson. Kimberley beselged the Nelson net again, and Gill In a glorious mlxup bulged the twine. Kimberley led off the second with a wicked and successful shot by Srnlth on Griffith's pass In two minutes. For a quarter a»" an hour there was end to end play, with a regular barrage of shots poured In on the rival goalies. The wonderful work of Notman only saved the situation for the home boys. At 17 minutes Dcslreau cut loose again, trailed by Grant. The pass came. So did the score. The visitors took the leo in the third confident that their superior weight would tell to their advantage. But thero waa nothing doing. In this period the Nelson team played like a charm. They simply played the red shlrtB off the ice. Miller, Grant and O'Genski played the combination gamo right and did pretty things In checking and covering up. Grant took the puck behind ln two minutes. It came out to O'Genski and waa shut through hy Miller. It was pretty work. Griffiths, who had been off for two mlnutea, came on. He was In ft hurtV. He ran up from the .faca- off and scored for the visitors on his own. Grant got sway with a loose puok to wore In six minutes. It was for Nelson a defense game then, with Caldwell, visitors' star do'ense man, and Blumeanunr making fine Individual bursts, only to be snubbed on Richardson or Desires u. Griffiths nnd Smith did Home nice passing, but could not get Inside* Cyclone Richardson, whoso spectacular rushes ware always the signal for double cheeking, closed the game brilliantly with a whirlwind snake dance up the Ico to acore wtihln 30 seconds of time. After th»» gnme «*.**. ever Captain Caldwell and Secretary Alec Berry visited The Dally News office to congratulate Nelson on winning. The Kimberley boys had no alibi, thay said, and wera fairly beaten. They classed the Nelson boys as "good .-■ports," and were only anxious to see them tour the Crow. Goal Summary.
