FLOOD OF ORATORY
FREE STATE ELECTIONS EIGHT PARTIES IN FIELD PROPORTIONAL RE P R E SF. N - TATI ON (Aust. and 17.2. Cable) Dublin, Jan. if. With 250 candidates belonging to eight parties, the flood of oratory over th© country is increasing daily. Thor© will be over 1000 meetings on Sunday. Neither Sinn Fein nor I.R.A. is running its own candidates. Th© number of parties will make counting votes under the proportional representation system laborious, and consequent]),- even th© Dublin results are not likely to b© announced for four days after the poll. Mr E. d© Valera, answering questions, said that if he were returned he would bo willing to resume negotiations with Britain on the land annuities, ‘‘but only on the basis that wo retain what ig our own.”
