IRISH DISPUTE
CONFERENCE WITH SIR JAMES CRAIG. RUMOURS OF UNDERSTANDING. «T (ÜBLB-PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT LONDON, Aug. 21. The Belfast correspondent of the Daily Herald says that despite every attempt to keep secret the result of Mr Baldwin’s and Sir L. Worthington Evans’ conferences with Sir James Craig, it is freely rumoured Unionist circles that an understanding was reached. Ulster, though refusing to nominate a boundary commissioner, does not intend to oppose the establishment of the commission by Britain. If the commission’s report vindicates the Ulster viewpoint regarding the intention of article twelve, and recommends only minor rectifications, Ulster will accept the findings. On the other hand, if it recommends the transfer of considerable areas to the Free State, Ulster will reject the findings and challenge Britain to do her worst.
