FREE SPEECH DEFENDED
BY AUSTRALIAN JUDGE

Melbourne, Victoria, Australia a
public address in this city, Justice
Higgins, president of the common
wealth arbitration court, opposed at
tempts by the government to check
free speech. He said it was "arrant
nonsense" for men to stifle discussion
of a public question on the theory
"My country, right or wrong" If this
term meant, as it used to mean, that
men were to believe, or say they be-
lieved, their country to be right when
they believed her to be wrong, that
they ought to help the government for
the time being to do an injustice be-
cause it was doing it in the name of
their country, that this was "arrant
nonsense"
Although the speaker declared his
conviction that his country was right
in the European war, he said his per-
sonal opinion did not affect the pres
ent argument There was no obliga-
ton, legal or moral, of expediency on
a loyal subject, when his country was
in war, to say that his country was
in the right. There was no such
divorce between truth and patriotism,
between justice and loyalty, as certain
otherwise teachers would have them
suppose.
of CnX prt1Yf 1nT1t q G
open to criticism, and the gravest act
that any government could commit
the act of making war-was not an
exception. Justice Higgins referred
to the war against the American col
onies, pointing out that there were
public men in England, who, regard
less of charges of unpatriotism, urged
the reasonableness of the American
view. Those were the men whose
names were now the most cherished
and honored of that epoch-the Earl
of Chatham, Rockingham, Fox, Burke,
Savile, Hartley, Keppel.
Let men retain the right of full
freedom of discussion, he urged. Let
minorities have their say. The best
way often to kill a mistaken opinion
was to let it be exposed to the full
! light. Let men say what is in them
and not make of them liars and hypo-
critics. AS for themselves, continued
Justice Higgins, it was an essential
moral discipline to let those who diff
fered from them have their say, to
consider their views and if they found
that they had been wrong, to admit it
and change their ways.

WANTS UNIONS
"CONTROLLED'

The Wall Street Journal is worried
over the eight-hour demands of rail
road employees. The editor wants
these brotherhoods controlled" by
law. He accords a workman the right
to quit his job for any reason or no
reason-but. if a number of these
workmen exercise this right collective
ly, that's a different proposition.
Therefore the Wall Street Journals
remedy is to weaken the Clayton law.
Some day the country will realize
that a certain section of the Clayton
law will have to be repealed" says the
editor, "and that labor combinations
will have to be subject to legal con-
troll. The right of the individual to
cease working when the conditions
displease him, or without any reason
at all, can not be abandoned. But

PROSPECTS BRIGHT FOR
AGREEMENT ON ARMY BILL
Standing Army of 100000 Men and n
Peace Strength of 100000.

Washington, May Hope for an
agreement in conference on the army
reorganization bill seemed brighter
tonight after an all-day session of
the conference committee in which
basis for negotiation of differences
between the senate and house on the
regular army was reached.
Senate conferees agreed to yield on
the proposed standing army of 250,-
600 men and TO accept peace
strength of 10000 men, provided the
house would accept the expansion
system of organization in the senate
bill. Under this system the regular
army could be increased in time of
conflict to 100000 or more. House
conferees tentatively agreed to this
proposition upon which to base agree
ments as to detail. organization of
units and other features of the meas
ure. The Chamberlain bill before it
was amended in the senate placed the
maximum strength of the regular
army at about 100000 men, whereas
the house bill left it at 100000.
Although the conferees are exert
ing every possible effort to reach a
complete agreement. some of them
fear that all disputed points cannot
be worked out without referring some
points back to the senate and house
for further instructions. Senate con-
ferees still are holding out for the
federal volunteer army. as well as
their proposed system of federaliza'
tion of the National guard, but the
house leaders insist that they event
ually will win their fight to eliminate
| the volunteer army and retain the
house national guard provisions.

FROM SAME
PLATFORM
GOV. T. C. RYE AND EX-GOV.
HOOPER SPOKE SUNDAY
AFTERNOON IN FAVOR
OF PROHIBITION.

CHATTANOOGA, TENN, April 80.
Gov. Tom c. Rye and Ex-Governor
Ben w. Hooper spoke from the same
platform here this afternoon in a
meeting at the city auditorium held
under the auspices of the local inter-
church federation and the Tennessee
Anti-Saloon league.
J. D. McAlister, superintendent of
the league, also made a speech, SO,
Letting financial support for that or
ganization and making a collection
of funds from those present.
Ex-Governor Hooper reviewed his
work for prohibition in Tennessee,
saying that on every occasion that
had presented itself since he had been
able to vote he had stood for the alb
clifton of the liquor traffic, and 80
help me God" he exclaimed, Il shall
always be found voting and working
for prohibition" and for any and all
things that will make it more effect
ive"
He denounced a local newspaper,
declaring that the liquor traffic in
Tennessee was not dead and that if
any one believed it was all he would
have to do would be to go to that
newspapers Office. He said that the
reason the anti-saloon leagues fight
had been effective was because that
organization had adopted the plan of
the liquor force in the matter of
having mo politics."
Gov. Rye, who followed, declared
that there were no longer any diff
ferences between Tennesseans on the
liquor question-that prohibition was
settled fact and would always be
the law in Tennessee.
Mr.. McAlister asserted that Chatta
nooga was the headquarters of prop
aganda, Systematically managed, to
prove that prohibition was a failure
in Tennessee, and read from a maga-
zine an article to show the falsity OF
this propaganda.

IS CLAIMED TO HAVE BEEN
OF GERMAN ORIGIN. THE
REVOLUTION DENOUNC-
ED BY JOHN REDMOND.
THE SIM FE|N MOVEMENT
SHOWS THE CONDITIONS IN
- MONEY CFNTERS,

NEW YORK, April 3d.. c. Walsh.
editor of Ireland, received a cable
gram today from John E. Redmond
| in which the Irish nationalist leader
reiterated his recent statement that
the Dublin insurrection was organ
lied in America as we'll as Ireland
by ''the irreconcilable enemies of
home rule" and begs "our people in
America not to be disturbed by this
futile and miserable attempt to de-
stroy Ireland" for it has definitely,
finally failed"
The message said
"The attempt TO torpedo home rule
and the Irish party, has failed. Dam
age has been done, life has been lost,
but the ship has not been sunk. The
whole thing has been organized Ly
those in Ireland and in America who
have always been the open and ir-
reconcilable enemieG of home rule and
of the Irish party. Though the hand
of Germany was in the whole thing,
it was not so much sympathy for
Germany as hatred of home rule and
of u.s. which was at the bottom of
the movement. 1t was even more an
attempt to hit us than to hit Eng
land.
"The whole disgraceful plot is
viewed with execration by the Irish
people. 1t was partly the creation of
the Sim Fein and was almost en-
tirely q Dublin movement; cranks
and German agents there, partly of
the remnants of that mass of dis
content and anarchy which was left
by the disastrous Larkinite strike.
In a few small towns there were at
tempts at disturbance which were
easily suppressed but Ireland as q
whole has remained perfectly tran
quill.
"As to the opinion of the Irish race
have received communications from
all parts of the world declaring We
hement condemnation by Irishmen of
this insane and wicked attempt to
destroy all Irelands hopes just at
the moment when, after centuries of
vain struggle they were about to be
fully realized. beg our people in
America not to be unduly disturbed
by this futile and miserable attempt
to destroy Ireland. 1t has failed
definitely, finally failed.'
