The. Dublin Outbreak
and PrOcraStinatiOn of
British Towards Ireland

One could laugh had he not to cry
over the Irish rebellion in which farce
and tragedy mingled, says Reid's
Mirror. The uprising was il1-planned.
It was not numerically strong. It
was not equipped. The continental
"aIlies'' of the revolutionists> yielded
an 'inconsiderab1e support and threw
the organizer of the rebellion to the
wolves. It was all indescr1bably
pathetic in it's splendid folly, in its
chi1dishness. Well may it be sur
missed that Sir Roger Easement is in
sane. The pity of it lies in the handle
it gives to those fanatics in the North
to obstruct the way to Home Rule.
The spokesman of the most of Ire
land, the men chosen to represent
Ireland had secured a measure of
Home Rule, the application of which
was suspended by the war, and the
most of Ireland was and is loyal to
Great Britain because of such Home
Rule as has been agreed upon. Most
of Ireland stands by the agreement
of loyalty for self-government A
few irreconcilable impracticals jeop-
ardized the pact and the realization
of Ireland's hopes. They sacrificed
their lives heroically but use1essly.
That they hurt their own land is
plain; that they helped Germany is
not apparent. They have only St1nen-
ed the English, Scotch Welsh back
bone, to say nothing of intensifying
the loyalty of the Colonies. Such is
the immediate view Of the matter. In
the longer and larger view, however
the uprising should convince the pre-
dominant partner in the British En-
pire that abandoning procrasttnation
in justice to Ire1and/is the only thing
that will finally and fully pacify that
country. Only justice will wipe out
the legacy of hate running from
Strongbow's day to this. England
cannot honor a rebel like Carson with
a place in the cabinet. and put
mutineer like French in command of
her armies and obIiterate Connolly
and MacNeil with shrapnel. Eng
land owes more to Redmond, Dillon,
O'Connor, McGhee and the Nation
a1ists than she owes to Carson, in
her present desperate extremity. She
owes to Pearce and Easement the
same 1eniency she showed to Carson
and French. The act of the rebels
was. an evil one, but England must
remember that back of it are memoir
les of eight centuries Of intolerab1e
wrongs and atop of them two years
of the hope deferred that makes the
heart sick Now more than ever
| England needs ireland. Woe unto
her if her policy towards the rebels
henceforth be such as to- disaffect
! the loyalty of the Irish Nationalist
and those Irish soldiers who captur-
| ed a. section of German trenches on
| the very day when the Irish Repub-
| 1ic'' was declared, so fatously. on
Stephens Green. "God Save Ireland q"
If not, there is no saving England.

Treating of Health Insurance." I.
NJ. Rubinow, Phi. D., executive 'secre-
tary of the Social Committee of the
American Medical Association. New
York, said in part:
Health Insurance is perhaps the
most important constructive proposal
in social legislation before the Ameri-
can people to-day. Statistics indicate
the occurrence among the wage work
ers of the United States of perhaps ten
million cases of illness year, of which
two and q, half million cases last four
weeks or over and cause serious eco
nomic distress for as many families.
"Proper organization of medical aid
is, perhaps as important a measure as
the granting of financial assistance.
Statistics indicate that perhaps 40 per
cent. of Illness among wage workers
remains WITHOUT medical aid at pres
ent and good deal of the aid furnished
is insufficient in quantity or inefficient
In quality. 1t should be the object of
compulsory Health insurance, as agi-
in the reach of the working class, the
latest achievements of medical science
and art Only in this way can the
health conserving effect of insurance
be realized.
s"That the health insurance move
ment is rapidly growing in this coun-
try is evidenced by the introduction of
bills in New York and Massachusetts,
and blythe existence of a social insur-
ance commission in California and the
employment of a social insurance in
vestigating committee in the U. S. Con-
greSs.''
Miss Amy F. Acton, of Boston,
a lawyer and representative of a new
department of the Massachusetts State
Board of Charity speaking on state
chartering of Incorporated charities,
said that everything done in the name
of charity is not defensible. She start
1 ed out with the theme that private
charity is a public trust.
Turning the search light on the
statutes of Massachusetts, as an exam
pie of the shortcomings of all of her
states, Miss Acton. said: that under
those statutes trustees of charitable
institutions escape personal liability
for debts incurred by the corporation
the organizations gain perpetual ex-
istence; its real and personal property
are exempt from taxation and cannot
be attached in damage suits, and
funds are forever impressed with the
trust, unless the purpose of the trust
is changed under authority of the
courts.
Through failure to realize that the
community is the real party in inter
est, that private charity is public
trust, the private charities in most
states occupy a practically uncharted
country where any adventurer may
stake a claim" Miss Acton said in con-
c1usion.
That social agencies, like a certain
weII-known make of automobile,
might be run through a standardizing
process and be turned out guaranteed
one hundred per cent. efficient, was i'm
piled in an address by Charles M. Hub

AMERICA is USING.
DOMESTIC PERFUMES

New York, May 11-American
manufacturers virtually are monopo-
LIKING the domestic market for per-
fumes, says the report of the secre-
tary of the Manufacturing Perfum-
ers' Association OF the United States.
The association finishes it's annual
convention here today. The secre-
tary said there has been a heavy re-
duction in the imports of perfumery
in the present fiscal year. American
manufacturers are taking advantage
of this situation to push the sales of
their products in the United States.
Many of them are anxious to build up
an export business but fears were ex-
pressed that this would be transi-
tory.

Must Decide According to
international Law, Says
Privy Council.
RULING PLEASES
u. S. CLAIMANTS
Appeal Allowed in Case OF SeiZ-
ure of ZamOra'S Cargo
of Copper.

London. April the Judiciary
Committee OF the pr!vy Council has
decided to permit an appeal from the
order of Sir Samuel Evans. president
OF the prize court, that the War Office
might requisition the cargo Of copper
seized from the Swedish steamship
Zamora last spring.
This decision is regarded as OF great
importance by representatives Of
American prize court claimants. who
believe IL assures them satisfactory ad-
Justment in British prize courts with
cut diplomatic intervention. One OF
these representatives. who Is inter-
ested IN claims amounting 70 millions
OF dollars. said to-day:
"The decision Is milestone IN prize
court procedure of the present war. In
large measure it abrogates the famous
dictum Of Sir Samuel Evans, that 1t is
imconceivable the British government
should promulgate any Order IN Coun-
Gil which would not be enforced by de-
cree of prize court.
an a few words, the decision allow
ing an appeal reverts TO the oldtlme
practice of British prize court justices,
who did not hesitate TO rule against
the government when it appeared to
them that Orders in Council promul-
gated by the crown were in violation
of accepted international law.
I'VE are naturally delighted, for
after the Evans dictum we felt that our
only chance of securing redress was
diplomatic Intervention, which Is diff
cult to resort to until the cases have
rassed through the prize courts. thus
ontailing delav. which meant ruin to
small shippers"
The decision lays stress on this point
by stating that the prize court must
provide means Of redress for any one
aggrieved by acts of a belligerent
lower. for otherwise he must appeal
through diplomatic channels at the risk
Of disturbing international amlty.
Therefore. every belligerent power
must appoint and submit to the juris-
diction of prize court, TO which any
aggrieyed person may have access, and
which will administer international as
cTposed TO municipal law.
A case for diplomatic Intervention
would arise only if decision amount
ed 10 a gross miscarriage OF justice.
The council decision was rendered by
Lord Parker. Lord Sumner, Lord Par
moor, Lord Wrenbury and Sir Arthur
CHANNEL.

I'm the centre OF the stage was a
white altar. hanked on each side By
temple pillars. with a blue sky and
bluer sea in the background. The gym

a partisan gathering Of students and
parents, who cheered themselves hoarse
to aid their favorites.
