London, June 13.-1t is signifi- cant that Michael Collins Sunday ad- dressed a meeting in company with :De Valéra in Support of the panel candidates, and it is believed that De Valera has agreed to modify his views for the present. But this is not certain for, as Lloyd George has himself stated, it is absolutely im- possible to follow De Valera's line of reasoning or to predict what course he will take in any given set of cir- cumstances, That apprehension with regard to the future has not been al- together allayed is indicated by the [fact that the British election ma- chinery is being kept ready for im- mediate action in case of differences arising within| the cabinet although there is less demand in the newspa- pers for an electlon at once.
