HOME RULE PASSES
Measure Will Now Become Law
Despite Opposition of
Lords.
ENDS HARD FOUGHT BATTLE
Final Vote on Bill Was 351 to 274, a
Majority of H-ProVisions of
the Law.

LondOn.-The Irish Home Rule Bill
passed its third reading in the House
Of Commons by vote of 351 to PA,
majority if II.
An amendment is to be passed at
once, if the Unionists agree, to meet
some Of the Ulster demands.
Upon the rejection of the present
bill by the lords, which is taken for
granted, It will automatically become
law with the kings signature, and
within the next twelve months the
new Irish Parliament will be sitting
at Dublin. The bill itself provides
that it shall not become operative for
eight months from the date of its pas
sage nor in its entirety later than if
teen months; but there is special
provision which compels the organiza-
ton of the Dublin Parliament within
year. Although constitutionally
King George would have the right to
withhold his approval, it is known
that he has not the slightest inten-
ton of doing so.
The quick vote on home rule at the
demand of the Unionists came as
the day, f1ocked to Westminster and
crowded the galleries in expectation
of vigorous, old-time debate.
Features of Bill.
The bill, which will become law
whether the house of lords assents or
not, contains the following provisions:
A senate of forty members, a house
commons of 164 members.
Irish parliament cannot Iegislate on
peace or war, navy, army or any ma
val OF military force, foreign relations,
trade outside Ireland, coinage or le-
gal tender.
1t cannot make any law, either di-
rectly or indirectly, to establish or
endow any religion, or prohibit the
free exercise thereof, or give a pref
erence, privilege or advantage, or
impose any disability or disadvantage
on account of religious belief, or &C.
clesiastical status, Or make any re-
iigious belief or religious ceremony
condition of the validity Of any mar
rage.
Temporary restrictions are placed
on legislation, on land purchase, old
age pensions, national insurance, Ia
Dor exchanges, Royal Irish constabu-
larry, postomce and other savings
banks, and friendly societies.
The executive remains invested In
the sovereign or in his representative.
Forty-two members still will be sent
from Ireland to the house of COM
mons
ri
council TO give the final decision as to
the constitutional validity Of any act
passed by the Irish parliament
The Irish exchequer to defray the
cost of the Irish administration, ex-
cept for reserved services mentioned
above.

FIGURES FULL OF MEANING.

The recently taken school census of
Chicago. typical of that of most large
American cities. presents a wonderful
picture of the melting pot at work.
RoundIy speaking. Chicago has two
million and a half of people. Yet less
than a third-752,111. TO be exact
are native born whites whose parents
were also born in this country.
More than a third, S76,2SS, were
corn abroad, while there are 754,570
whose parents were foreign born.
From the countries now at war
Chicago has Germans TO the number
Of 399.977. 231,346 Poles. 166.134
Russians. 1860 Irish. 1O2,749 BO-
hemians, 5S.4S3 Austrians, 45,714
English. 44.744 Canadians. 31,s63
Hungarians. 24,65O Lithuanians, H.
~ Scotch. 5.649 French. 1892 Bel
gians. S45 Servians and 81 Japanese;
while from the nations on the fringe
of the big war and likely any minute
TO become involved in it there have
come 1888 Swedes, 1OS.16O Italians,
47.496 Norwegians. 22.394 Danes.
S,621 Greeks. 1872 ROumanians and
1.1O2 Bulgarians.
Arranging these figures in two col
umns I'm the lineup of their reported
war sympathies. which is partly guess
work. we discover total Of S73,64S
presumably hoping that the allies
may win and 711,605 entertaining
similar wishes fr the Germans and

Which shows how wise was Pres.
Wilson's appeal for American neu-
trality and how much trouble we
might make for ourselves were we to
reproduce in our common country the
hatreds and jealcasies of stricken
Europe
And which also reminds US how
necessary il is for our common wei
fare that we should understand each
other and emphasize eur loyalty To
America first
