Dublin. June 17. The univers
verdict last night was that with the
exception of one instance in Dublin,
Ireland never had such a tame election
as that which took place last night to
hoose members of Parliament.
In this city raiders, neaded by Rory
O’Connor of the Irish Republican
army made off with the documents
and tally sheets of the National Uni
versity polling precincts. Elsewhere
in the city and County Dublin the day
was devoid of incident. The voting
was somewhat more brisk than had
been expected. A large number of
women cast their ballots at the polls.
The general estimate last night was
that about 50 per cent, of the voters
on the register Exercised the
franchise.*
The publication of the constitution
evoked no expression of opinion from
Eamon de Valera, leader of the Re
publican faction. Mr. de ValerA de
clined to speak concerning it on Hie
ground that he had not had time
to read the document. Rory O’Con
nor, however, was bitter on the sub
ject. “The thing is too rotten to talk
abou£,” he exclaimed when asked his
opinion on the constitution.

against any reduction, was included
in the decision. It was signed by

the board.
Definite recognition of a ‘‘living

abnormal post-war conditions were

any scientific living or saving wage

would "give increased consideration
to all the intricate dejails incident to
