A despatch from Dublin ah has been officially announced that the Dail Eireann has been summoned to meet in Dublin, August 16, for the purpose of reviewing Lloyd George's offer and deciding upon a reply. The attitude of Ulster also will be considered. : The summons will be sent to all Dail members, including those in jail, and it is taken fos granted in Dublin that they will be immediately releas- ' ed, although no formal request for their freedom will be made. A despatch from London says:-- The British Cabinet has already given power to Sir Hamar p ood, Chief Secretary for Ireland, to release Dail Eireann members should it seem advisable, and it is understood he will} take the receipt in jail of sommons to attend the Dail Eireann as a re- quest for the r of the p 5 Many are in English jails | 'can- not reach Ireland before Sunday or Mcnday at the earliest. Censational stories were published in some English papers.on Thursday, s:cting that Ulster had definitely and { ~2lly 'refused to have anything to do wi h the peace proposals, and insisted ur:n retaining her present status. RUSSIAN RELIEF IN HANDS OF HOOVER Motor Trucks Ar Are Needed to Reach Rural Districts Far "from Railways. A despatch from Paris says:--The entire organization for Russian re- lief is in the hands of Herbert Hoover. When Walter L. Brown, European director of the American relief ad- ministration, arrives at Riga from London for the purpose of distribut- ing relief in the famine districts of Russia he will find scores of all classes of Russians and people of other nationalities, anxious on one pretext or another to accompany the relief administration's forces inte Russia, accordimg to a dispatch from Riga. . United States relief head- quarters there are being besieged by applicants volunteering to make the trip, some out of mere curiosity, some anxious really to be of assist- ance and others frankly saying that they are trying to get into Russia to see what has happened to relatives, friends or their property. Baltic jnewspapers are printing a number of rumors regarding events in Russia. One is to the effect that Leon Trotzky, the Bolshevik minister of War, has been named food dictator, and that heavy reinforcements of troops have been rushed into the fa- mine district to quell the starving masses, who are pictured as beating down the guards, invading cities and eating everything they find. All such rumors are without any sort of con- firmation. In Moscow, according to recent ar- rivals in Riga, there was no indica- tion of famine. Small numbers of refugees had managed to reach that city, but it. was said the Government was attempting to direct the masses into the fruitful regions of Siberia and the Ukraine, instead of permit- 'ng them to go to the cities, Owing to the fact that many vil- ges where starvation prevails are far from the railroads, one of the i rincipal needs in the relief work will be a large number of motor trucks. nied. yet, for the reason that no ol oo versations have taken Dace, between representatives of the and the winter.'
