Bernard Shaw Declares
Shot IriShmen Martyrs
BY associated Press

London, May 10.-George Bernard
Shaw. discussing the executions of the
Sim Feiners in an open letter to-day
SAYS:
My view is that men who were shot
in cold blood after their capture or
surrender were prisoners of war and
il was therefore entirely incorrect to
slaughter them. The slaughter of a
man in his position makes him a
martyr and a hero. The shot Irish
men will now take their places beside
Emmet and the Manchester martyrs
in Ireland besides the heroes of Po-
land, Serbia and Belgium in Europe.
Nothing in heaven or earth can pre-
vent it,"

punitive expedition in Mexico was evi-
dent on both sides of the Rio Grande
to-day, Notwithstanding the situation
was not materially altered by the con-
ferees in their three-hour talk last
night. The optimism appeared based
largely upon the admission that an
other conference would be held, per-
haps to-day, and that General Obregon
and his military advisers maintained
attitudes of hopefulness.
The net result of the conferences
already held is that The Mexican repre-
sentatives yet insist upon placing the
question of the withdrawal of General
Pershing's forces ahead of the ques-
tion of cooperation. General Scott
was expected to receive from the War
Department a communication from
which reply could be delivered to
General Obregon's counter proposal
for a Joint patrol of the border by the
troops of each country on its own side
OF the line. With this agreed to, Cen
eral Obregon believed that cooperation
in the running down of bandits that
raided across the line might be more
effective.
Whether the conference will take
place before late day was unknown
either at General Ohregon's headquar-
ters or at General Scott's. Because of
the new phases suggested by General
he would consult with CarranZa and
that delays in communicating with the
Mexican capital might make the hold
ing of the conference before to-mor-
row impossible.
Obregon Not Worried
The ordering into the border coun-
try of more regular troops and militia
appeared not to worry General
Obregon and those military men with
him. nor did Juan \. Amador, sub
secretary OF foreign affairs. appear
perturbed. They assumed that the in
creasing of the forces along the border

fold-yes, a hundredfold-more mis-
cries than all the other evils COM
bined
The filler evil is now regarded as
crime by all the State departments of
agriculture where poultry food or cat
tie food is concerned. AS far as ship
ping food from one State into an
other is concerned the federal gov
ernment also recognizes the filler evil
as a crime. The manufacturer who
practices it is required to leave some
inconspicuous tellIale evidence be-
hind in the form of small print upon
the label.
In such foods as are consumed in
the State in which they are manufac-
tured and do not cross the State line
INTO another State, even this telltale
evidence is not required except in a
few communities, where an alert
commissioner of agriculture is active.
The experiment stations of nearly
every State in the Union have shown
to the Agricultural Department the
enormity of taking cow-food and
earth-food, which have been followed
by many successful prosecutions,
never heard of by the common people,
although such prosecutions have been
based on no other ground than the
evil so complacently tolerated in the
preparation of human foods.
In other words, cattle food and fer
tl1zer are considered by the State
and federal governments as of more
Importance than human food. AS we
go along the reason for this will be
revealed and in it's proper place the
remedy will be suggested
DR.. Wiley's first work, away back
in 1882, was the election of worth
less filters from the earth-food fer
tilizers sold to farmers for replenish-
ing their soil with the food elements
consumed by last years crop and
which therefore had to be put back
into the earth in order that there
might be a crop the following year.
The commercial cow-food, loaded
with foodless materials like the COM
mercial earth-food was found to fail
utterly in the work which 1t was in
tended to accomplish, and now, after
| thirty-fiVe years of common-sense ex-
pertence with soil. plants and animals,
with thorough knowledge of the
meaning and cause of soil starvation,
crop failure, and animal disease, our
poor human beings persist in pooh
poohing the idea of pure food for
! their children.
Pure food for the soil: pure food for
the plant; pure food for the animal:
for man and his children-anything
Those who manufacture foodless
foods for human beings tell us we
have no constitutional right to inter
fere with their industry. Education
of the masses, however, will bring
about the necessary change. The
facts VIII follow in battalions.

A slight creak of the door warned
the wire that it was being opened
cautiously. She knew that the listener
had heard Reeves last sentence. Yet
Jane could not warn him that he was
overheard.

she found that Mary Baird was gazing

that startled the young wife.
She remembered the expression an

had stopped in to see him.

Jane went down the carpeted steps
swiftly, but so softly that the pair
talking in the kitchen did not hear her
approach.
The door leading into the. dining
room was open. and as Jane reached
the foot of the stairs she stopped, ar
rested and startled by the shrill note
of protest in the voice of the woman
who was arguing with the master OF
the house.
What do you mean ?" she was de-
manding. That I'm not to eat with
you any more?"
That's Just what do mean," Au-
gustus returned.
But ] always have" the woman de-
clared. 1--WE lived here going on

Shut up" he ordered. you'll do
as sav. Now that 1 have a wife, |
expect her to sit at my table and you'll
wait on us. Understand ?"
You expect me to wait on that
the woman began.
But the mans repeated order to
shut up" interrupted her, and, fear
full of hearing more, Jane called her
husband. She felt that she could not
endure listening to this conversation
that was certainly not meant for her
ears.
"Augustus!" she spoke loudly
Shall l come right in?"
AS she appeared at the door OF
the kitchen, her husband laughed
awkwardly.
Yes, come right in" he said. "I've
just been telling Mary that you want
her to teach you a lot of things about
cooking and so forth. Now, Mary, il
everything's ready, you can bring in
the supper"
Jane pretended not to notice the
third place laid at the table. 1t was
evident that Mrs. Baird had been in
the habit of eating with Augustus and
had expected to do so now. Why need
she change this habit just because
the head of the house was married
The wife felt sorry for this woman
who had done her part faithfully ever
since before Reeves first wife had
died. She found herself wondering if
the first Mrs. Reeves had considered
herself above sitting at the table with
the housekeeper
Jane was young and impressionable
Moreover, she wanted to like Mary
Baird and to be liked by her. Who
was she simple Jane Hardy, that she
should sit still and be waited on by q
woman who was many years her SEN
Tor and who was, possibly, as well born
as she?
When the sausages and cakes had
been placed on the table, Jane could
hold her peace no longer.
Augustus" she ventured. as Mary
went back into the kitchen for the cof-
fee, "why not have Mrs Baird sit down
here and get her supper with us?
There is no reason why she shouldn't
do It, is there?"
