PLEAS MADE IN
EASEMENTS BEHALF
Prominent British Newspapers Ask
For Clemency For Convicted Leader
Of Sim Fein RebelIion-Coneress
Aroused to Act.

London, June 30.-The Manchester
Guardian, one of the most influential
papers in the country today made a
direct claim for clemency for Sir
Roger Easement, sentenced to death
for high treason yesterday.
While admitting that no other sem
tence but that of death could have
been given by the court the Guardian
says:
Easement was fanatic and his
crime, like those Of others Of this kind,
was free from the taint of sordidness
and menace. The death penalty will
do nothing to kill such dreams as his.
Rather it will give them life.
For the sake of the new Ireland
which we hope to see, it is a moment
for clemency."
An indirect plea for mercy is made
by other papers on the ground that
the death would not assist in settling
the problem in Ireland.
