IRISH-A AMERICANS
 WILL AID IN FIGHT

Boston, November 2S.-The members of the United British League of America, determined to meet squarely the issue of American dollars'' raised by the union ists in the campaign just begun for the election of a new parliament. today is- sued an appeal for funds to be sent to Ireland to assist the home rule party. This action was taken at meeting held here today by the Boston members of the national executive committee of the league, including IT. D. Fitzpatrick, na- tional treasurer, and John buckingham, national secretary. In its appeal the committee says:
 "Ireland's claim for home rule stands in the forefront In what Is destined to be the most memorable general election in the political history of the last two cen- turies in Great Britain The demand for Irish home rule is linked inseparably with the demand of the masses of the British people for the reforms which they have so long and so vainly demanded.
 Tn it's desperation the house of lords has been driven as a last resort in the effort to save itself from extinction to cry out that its destruction is being wrought by the aid of American dol lars
 The campaign cry that American dol lars are about to wreck the British con- stitution is of course simply meant as catch cry for the defeating of the forces of progress. But the fact remains that American dollars contributed to strengthen the Irish party in this con- test are going to play an important part in the result of the struggle"

 PILGRIM FATHERS

Washington, November 2S.-Presi6ent Taft, at the eleventh annual banquet of the Society of Mayfower descendants in the District of Columbia, tonight eulog- ized the character of the Pilgrim fath- CTS, the occasion being the celebration of the two hundred and ninetieth anniver- sary of tlH signing of the compact In the cabin of the Mayfiower.

 'I wish to testify to my gratitude at being advised that I am a descendant of one of those who came over in the May flower" said the President. "The time was when thought those who came over in the Mayf1ower plumed themselves as belonging to the aristocracy of the na- tion. On the contrary. believe now that they showed a humility and proper spirit of republicanism and democracy"
 Speaking of the landing of the pilgrims, which was so important in the early his- tory of the United States, President Taft declared it was because the pilgrims were among the first who Handed and stuck in that country of pleasant sum- mer residences-New England.
 They showed the uses and needs of written constitution" he continued. '.They showed a great capacity for self government. that, without making invidi- ous comparisons, has lent moral fibre and moral duty to the whole settlement of the United States.
