Arrangements are being made for the
Michael Davitt branch OF the United Irish
League of America to start a strenuous
campaign to raise the amount of Washing
tons promised contribution to the fund
being collected in America for the Irish
parliamentary fund. A meeting was held
last. night in Good Samaritan Hall for the
purpose of laying out this campaign and to
receive promised donations and returns
from collection books in the hands of men,
bers.
Many plans were suggested by the speak
ers the most favored of which was to OBJ
tain the services of a prominent local Irish
lecturer, to give n lecture in one of the
theaters on subject relating to ireland.
1t was set forth that the chief reason why
the movement for which the league stands
is not more ably and generously supported
In this city is a general misunderstanding
of it and a lack of knowledge of facts and
conditions in Ireland today, and of the his
cation of its people and their glorious past,
when they led the civilization OF the world.
Those who took active part and spoke on
the subject last night were President VIII
liam F. Downey, NJ. @. O'Donoghue. Prof.
James Mooney, Lot Flannery, Z. j. Nee. Ed
