IRISH CONSTABLES
CANNOT GO TO WAR
Treasury Will Not Make Up the DIFF.
ference in Pay. Redmond
Is Angry.

DUBLIN, Feb. 1S.--There is consid-
erable irritation in Ireland over the
action of the government in refusing
to the members of the Royal Irish
constabulary facilities to enlist. There
are ten thousand of these policemen
in Ireland. They are men of splendid
physique and enough of them to form
two battalions of the Irish Guards are
keen on entering the army. Dublin
Castle. which controls them, offers no
objection 1t Is the treasury which
stands in the way. The policemen If
they enlisted would be exchanging 25
shilling q week for shilling a day.
The treasury, which has met this diff
ficulty in the case of other public
servants, and the government, which
has urged on private employers the
duty of setting their men free for the
army by guaranteeing them all or a
part OF their wages, will not in the
case of the Irish police follow their
own example and precept There is
thus a deadlock. John Redmond. in
presence of the lord rd-leutenant and
chief secretary at n public meeting,
has condemned this action Of the
treasury. 1t is serious hindrance to
recruiting in Ireland, since it is diff
fcult to persuade people n the country
districts of the urgency OF the need
for men when they see the police kept
hack, though at the present they have
very little to do.

vision meets opposition as strong as
the complaints because of lack OF or

ings with the ships.
Whatever losses may have been
sustained by individual owners whose
vessels have been taken by the ad-
miralty. the general result of high
freights has been an enormous profit
to the shipping trade. The Statist
estimates that the net gains Of the
shipowners have risen from $780,
900, 00C in 1913 to the rate of sl,250,-
100000 for the current year. The
shipowners have to pay 80 per cent
of their surplus profits (war profits.
so-called) in special taxes. but even
with that deduction the total gain Is
enormous.
AS for the curtailment Of pulp i'm
ports, the newspaper and publishing
interests can furnish the strongest
reasons why their industry should not
be hampered. Tobacco should be en-
cluded because it is particularly re-
quired by the soldiers. and also to
keep the many worsmen in the cigar
and Cigaret trades at work. Fruit
should not be excluded because II Ia

And finally any and all attempts to
decrease the output and sale OF
whisky, beer and other beverages IN
the United Kingdom are always
greeted with a tempest Of opposition
from the Interests, which include
stockholders as we'll as sellers and
from the consuming public.

Business Has Been Con-
Quoted on Economically
Unsound Basis
BILL IS INTRODUCED
Would Create Bureaus and
Fund to Take Care of
the Mortgages.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press)
BERLIN, Feb. 25.-The war prom
ises to bring about much-needed re-
forms in the real estate situation IN
Germany and in Berlin in particular.
Serious difficulties under which the
real estate business was transacted
long before the beginning of the con-
flict have become so critical now that
the Prussian diet as had to step in
with proposals for financial assistance
and a radical readjustment of the
methods of valuation and assessment.
The Fundamental trouble, to the
layman at least seems to be that the
real estate business, particularly In
Berlin, has been conducted on an
economically unsound basis, approxi-
mately at times wildcat char
acter At least a good proportion or
German real estate men have for years
proceeded in "a hand -to-mouth'
standard. Thus the man wanting to
build for investment has pursued the
practice of starting with nothing
much more than the land on which
he was to erect a house, has mortaged
this land to get funds for building,
has mortgaged the building to get
money to complete 1t, and has relied
and had to rely on his rents to pay the
interest on his mortgages.
Gross Overvalucs.
The evils Of this system have long
been recognized, and have been ac-
centuated by the fact that gradually
there has crept in the custom of
grossly overvaluins property for the
purpose of increasing the size of
loans on mortgages. But the whole
house of cards has threatened to top
ple because the war has brought with
il financial stringencies that made the
payment of rents impossible in many
instances, and made the payment Of
interest and principal on loans i'm
possible too.
The situation thus created has been
held in hand only by degree OF con-
sideration on all sides-banks have
either renewed loans or have not
called them, and real estate pro-
prietors and landlords have had sor
rowfully to agree to wait until the
end Of the war for much Of their
rents. The combination Of the old
evil system under which real estate
has suffered for years. and the effects
of the war 'on rents and loans has
practically put a stop to investment
at least for the period Of the war.
Valuation Bureaus.
Nor does the immediate outlook
after the war look bright. chiefly be-
cause capital is going to be exceed
ingly busy elsewhere. As a remedy
for the situation, there has been in
troduced into the Prussian diet bill
calling for the establishment of
valuation bureaus" all over Prussia.

600 marks with which to ease up the

JAPANESE OBJECT TO KAISER
WARD IN THEIR NEW HOSPITAL

turning 1t over to the hospital the
Germans stipulated that German
made surgical instruments should be
used in fitting out the operating
theater.
The feeling among the pro- British
section Of the community is so strong
that an endeavor has ben made to
raise q substitute fund, and this has
already reached $4,000, but the Ger
mans declare 1t is beyond the power
Of the trustees to change the condi-
tions Of their gift
The controversy centers mainly
about the naming Of the ward after
the kaiser, and in this matter the
Germans will accept no compromise
The Japan Chronicle, voicing the
pro- British view. declares 1t is i'm
possible to agree "to the association
Of building for alleviating suffering
with the name Of one who stands as
the apotheosis of the frightfulness OF
the German general staff"
The hospital controversy follows a
less important but more sensational
incident which occurerd when news
was received in Kobe of the blowing
up of the Lusitania. A prominent
British member Of the Kobe club pro-
cured long bamboo pole and thrust
It through a picture of the kaiser's
yacht which was hanging on one of
the walls. Largely as the result of
this incident the German members of
the club resigned almost to a man.

LONDON. Feb. 15.-Miltary service
tribunals, consisting of anywhere
from seven to twenty members, are
sitting throughout England hoarin;
applications for exemption from men
eligible at the front. Many COM
plants have begun to go up over the
lcniency shown by the tribunals 10
single men who have offered rather
fantastic reasons for evading service
In the army. Complete exemption has
been granted in comparatively few
cases. but postponements have been
most frequent, and the tribunals now
are being warned that every single
man excused means the earlier calling
out of the groups of married men
attested under the Derby plan.
There is every indication that it
will not be long after April next
when the first of the married men
will be called to the colors. Thus
far the married men in the army have
gone only through voluntary enlist
ment. The compulsory service act
does not apply to them as yet, but
thousands have attcsted their readi-
ness to serve when the supply of sin
gle men Is exhausted.
Domestic Duties.
MANY SlHbiS men, WIN mothers or
sisters dependent upon them, are
making the claim that their domestic
duties are just as sacred and Just as
deserving of the nations considera-
ton as those of the married men.
They make the further plea that their
family obligations were imposed on
them through no act of their own,
whereas the married man assumed
liability for others through voluntary
choice.

ally go to the workhouse. and | am

The tribunal thought otherwise.
Exemptions are sought upon the
theory that the applicant Is in
dispensable' to the conduct of The
business in which he is engaged. OFT
en- the pleas are made by the employ

age:

III AVRE. Feb. 21.-Germany in the

II has been officially denied by the
Belgian cabinet here that peace pro-
pOsals were discussed or ever brought
forward by Germany. That denial is
literally true. for the proceedings

mitted to paper. nor did the German
government appear in the negotia-
tons. From a source worthy OF

| The papal nunclo accredited to the
court of Brussels, who by reason OF

the belligerent countries, submitted

Albert and his cabinet. He did 80 un-
officially. and even in the verbal con

to understand that nothing was said

purported to be, and probably was.

Discussing the bill, the Japan Times
said: America is finding to ner

the conduct of some German Amer

the fau,t may be said to be partly
due to the neglect or indifference
with which the United States has,
for years. allowed the agents of the
German government to cultivate
among the German-Americans their
allegiance and devotion to the Faith

States mas seen enough of the evils
and dangers of dual nationality.

GREECE TO PRINT
NEW STAMP ISSUE
Much Confusion Now as Result OF
Innumcrablc Charitable

ATHENS, Greece, Feb. 1S.-De-
signs for new issue of Greek post
age stamps have been approved, and
unless the Serbian occupation of
Corfu interferes with the printing Of
them, the new stamps will be on sale
within a few months. Greek paper
money is printed in the United States,

The matter of stamps for letters in
Greece has become complicated by
the fact that during the holidays
such as those around Easter, no let

of both stamps shows a dying soldier

From an artistic point Of view they
are very ugly designs.
