| NI0uE REASON FOR
ASKING DIVORCE

Is Brooklyn, N. Y, Dec. A unique
reason for asking for the change of
q Judge to try a criminal case was
advanced this week in the Court of
Special Sessions by counsel for Mrs.
Margaret Sanger, charged with violat-
ing the penal code in imparting knowl-
edge of birth control" The claim
was that Justice McInerny is preju-
diced, and that the alleged offense is
not crime.
Justice McInerny denied all preju-
dice against the complainant, at the
same time as, for the sake of justice,
he asked that he be excused from
sitting. He confessed to prejudice
against any violation of the penal
code, such as murder or arson or cor
rupting the morals of youth, but this
should not unfit him for trial, as a
wholesome disregard for crime is
shared by all men.
In asking to be excused, Justice Nc
Inerny made the following statement:
81 have made applications to the
district attorney to be taken off this
case if such step seems to be desir-
able. AS to Mrs. Sanger's statements,
they do not bother me in the least.
Abraham Lincoln would never have
been born had birth control been prac-
ticed. AS to my action in other trials
of this nature, the courts have already
held that the law on which birth con-
troll advocates have been convicted is
constitutional. l will continue to rec
ognize it's constitutionality until it is
declared otherwise by higher courts
The claims of Mrs. Sanger and her
attorney, made before any decision as
to the constitutionality Of the law
were scored by Justice Kelby, as fol-
lows:
81 think this woman should have
the decency to wait until the consti-
nationality of the section was de-
cided"
To this he added word in which
all clear-thinking citizens concur:
''If these women want to go to Jail
and make martyrs of themselves !
think they can be accommodated.
Maybe they like to see their names in
the newspapers. If it were not for
publicity l believe this woman would
have closed her clinic long ago."

U. s. NOTES AROUSE DIPLOMATS.

". y. wv 60 AnOO0G OIFeOmAJ ..
The dispatch of the notes sent by
President Wilson to the warning
European nations last week, urging
them to outline terms ON which they
would be willing to make peace,
brought the greatest army of diplo-
mats to the state department seen
there in months.
The German, British, Japanese, Ital-
ian and Brazilian ambassadors were
among the first of the visitors; the
Bulgarian and Persian ministers also
called, as did charges from other lega-
lions.
Secretary of State Lansing in call
ing in the diplomatic representatives
of the belligerents is understood to
have made it clear to them individu-
ally that the United States expected
the replies of their governments to be
absolutely frank in all details.
In German quarters the conviction
that the Presidents action would sure
~ lead to some sort of considera-
ton of peace terms was expressed in
the following authorized statement by
Count Won Bernstorff, the German am
bassador:
Now I am perfectly convinced that
there will be conference" Despite
the fact that President Wilson's notes
state specifically and unreservedly that
he is mot proposing peace. he is not
even Offering mediation" they are re-
garded in official circles as of such a
nature as will compel all the belliger-
ents to make more of reply, than a
mere acknowledgment of receipt.

DANISH WEST INDIES WILL BE

Since Denmark's parliament has ap-

ton will press measures in Congress

American naval strategists for years
have regarded possession of this little
archipelago, lying SO miles east of
Porto Rico, as absolutely necessary to
prevent any European power from &C.
quiring it, and moreover, to establish
there great naval base and coaling
station for the United States fleet

to quell the rising and even then only
when heavy artillery was brought into
action.
But Commandant McDonagh con-
tended that the chief result of the re-
volt would be upon the international
situation. 1t would present Ireland's
case to the world in logical and force
full manner and would unmask Eng
lands hypocritical claim as defender
of small nationalities." And finally he
reasoned that if the capital of Ireland
could be held by the National forces for
period of five days, Ireland's right
to representation at the peace confer
ence was placed beyond dispute, and
Ireland's national honor indicated in
the eyes of the nations.
Commandant McDonagh referred
time and again to this aspect Of the
revolt, declaring that the Irish ques-
ton must be solved at the conference
which would arrange the terms of
peace. In order to qualify for such
representation ireland must have as
sumed the role of belligerent, and
initiated hostile action against the
enemy. Furthermore, he stated, a re-
volt would prevent, or at least post
pone, any attempt at CONSUMPTION in
Ireland.
In reviewing events since that time
one is forcibly struck with the pre-
cision of Commandant McDonagh's
forecast. When last saw McDonagh
he was standing with Major Mcbride
outside the factory, in conversation
with a British officer. The terms of
surrender were then being discussed,
and after some time an automobile
containing two more British officers
appeared. One of these was taken into
the factory and detained there as a
hostage, while McDonagh accompanied
the others to the Castle, where Pearce
then was, leaving Mcbride behind till
he returned, when the formal surren-
der took place.
This was on Sunday afternoon,
April 3Dth.
AS to the present conditions in Ire
land, it is evident that Great Britain
hopes to starve Ireland into submits
sion and will probably attempt to en-
force CONSUMPTION at an early date.
Lloyd Georges accession to power will
in all probability usher in an era of
vigorous effort, part of which will en-
brace the CONSUMPTION of from 100000
to 175,000 Irishmen. Whether the
new government will be so foolhardy
as to attempt this is another question.
In districts where Irishmen have arms
they will resist the draft. Where they
have no arms, some may yield to force,
but one cannot vouch for their loyalty
when trained and armed, even at the
front, or when intermingling as a
leaven with English or Scottish regi-
ments. In any event, the Irish race
has progressed far on the road to ma.
tional freedom, thanks to the rebels

FRAlR PLANS NEW START IN LIFE
FOR Ex.CONvlcTS.
illinois Approves Suggestion Of Fran
ciscan for Establishment Of
Home.

The state of Illinois has accepted
the plans made by the Rev. Peter
Trumbley, o. Il. NJ, for the amellora.
ton of conditions for discharged con-
victs of the state prison. Much inter-
est is taken in the venture, for upon
its success may depend similar action
throughout the country
Father Peter through his duties as
chaplain of the Joliet penitentiary,
discovered that the average convict
returned sooner or later to the state
prison for criminal acts. Upon ex-
haustive research he learned that in
most cases this situation ensued be-
cause the discharged convict received
no encouragement; rather that he was
an Outcast and no one cared for his
future.
The state empowered Father Peter
to visit prisons throughout the coun-
try, investigate conditions and report
on his findings. This resulted in the
acceptance of his suggestion that a
home be established whereby the eX-
convicts might be housed, educated
and placed in positions, remaining I'M
der the guidance of the priest, who,
after surveillance of a year or two
could issue recommendation for
those meriting it, and thus be better
able to secure future success.
In many places during his tour of
investigation Father Peter delivered
lectures, his discourse ON 1.-The HUI
man Side of Prison Life" at the Cath
Ole University OF America especially
attracting widespread attention.

MEN OF INAUGURAL
COMMITTEES.

Two of the most important commit
tees having to do with the second in
augural ceremonies of President Will

known members of the knights of Co.
lumbus, viz:
James S. Easily Smith, a graduate

The Court of Honor is, during the
inaugural ceremonies, that part of
Pennsylvania avenue extending from
Fifteenth to Seventeenth street, direct
ly in front of the White House, and
the duty of this committee is to super
intend the construction, decoration,
lighting, etc., of this court, in which
the President and his immediate and

and Medals, has Daniel J. Callahan as
chairman. Mr.. Callahan is the SUI
preme treasurer OF the knights of Co.
lumbus, and is one of the most promi-
nent citizens of ". District of Column
!, bia. Without losing touch with his
large business, which has placed him
in the forefront of the commercial
world, he has always taken promi-
nent part in the political affairs of the
capital. In the business world he is
regarded as a. man of initiative and
resources, and is particularly well
qualified for the duties of chairman of
this committee.
Both gentlemen are members of
