Ireland Free State Created in British Pact
The report outlines the treaty creating the Irish Free State as a sister nation of the British empire, with Ulster given a transitional status and a later boundary decision.

The accompanying Pacific peace plan, endorsed by United States, Britain, Japan, and France, seeks status quo, mediation, and eventual naval reductions, easing tensions in the Far East.
