.RETRENCHMENI PLAN
D|SPLEASES IRELAND
EDUCATIONAL GRANTS ARE IN
CLUDED IN THOSE THAT HAVE
BEEN REDUCED

10y tNNotHsfh 'f'sT''
Dublin, Ireland, Feb 28--Ireland
has just passed through vigorous
and successful agitation against gov
eminent methods of retrenchment. II
is tradition OF Irish government that
some of its services are extremely
costly in proportion to the needs OF
the people, while others are starved.
The treasury, in determining to effect
war economics, proceeded to attack
one after the other the starved ser
vices" leaving mostly untouched the
larger and less useful items. They
thus irritated the largest possible
number OF people and interests for the
smallest return in cash.
one of the starved services Is edn-
cation. The national library in Dub
lin, the Royal Irish academy of music,
the teaching OF science in secondary
schools and agricultural education all
the grants to be discontinued was
the small sum for the colleges OF
Irish. This brought the Gaelic league
into the fray, and throughout every
part OF Ireland, resolutions of public
bodies, and public meetings, culminat-
ing in meeting in the Dublin Man
sion house, conveyed to the govern
ment the popular Indignation. The
Irish Catholic bishops also passed a
series of resolutions of protest
It was not only the educational
grants that suffered. Ireland has
been receiving grant of 10000
pounds year for the encouragement
of horse breeding. The country Is a
great breeding ground for army horses
and its merits in this respect were re-
cognized before the war not only by
the British government. but by foreign
buyers. II was announced that the
horse-breeding grant was to be stop
ped though a similar grant of larger
amount given to Great Britain was not
only to be continued by increased.
Protest in parliament led TO the ex.
PLANTATION that army horses could be
more conveniently bred in England
because il was nearer to the seat OF
war, and because the provision OF
army horses might be an urgent mat
ter of hours instead of days. AS an
argument against grant for breed
ing horses in ireland this was not re
garded as convincing. Meanwhile nc
serious attack was made on the swol
len items of Irish expenditure. The
police cost over million and hall
year of pounds steAing, though fol
some years past the record OF the
country Is almost crimeless, and thu
Judges OF assiZe are constantly pre-
scented with white gloves by the sheriff
because there are no cases to try.
Ireland's taxation since the war hal
increased from about eleven millions
to about seventeen and half millions
and the treasury methods of retrench
ment would be ineffective for any rea
contributions towards war economics
They are said to have been due to thu
blunder of some minor officials I

they were defended in the house O

after the representations made by Nj

parliamentary leaders, it has been dc
cided that these small economics de

of love and love is the basis of all
things good and true. The trouble
lies in human interference with ma
lures laws. Our system of sex rela-
tons is not right, as it leads to many
serious difficulties. Here are some Of
the worst:
The right time for mating is when
love comes in the fiery period of ado
lescence. Then the young people are
in school, are too poor or have been
taught they are too young. He who
puts off marriage for circumstances
ruins two lives; he who marries in
spite Of circumstances too often does
the same; and he who loves without
marriage is unjust to him, to her and
to society under the present regime.
The great burdens of starting in life,
building a home and raising children
falls on those least able to bear it,
To enjoy love, the greatest thing in
life and every persons due, they
must meet the unfair competition Of
the unmarried shirker.
The position of wife is a relic Of
the days when women were slaves,
and when she receives the too COM
man tnhumap treatment she does she
must chose between at least two
great trials, stand it or drag herself
and children into a divorce court and
publicity. This to many is worse than
slavery. Ito be continued.)-. S.

A TAX FOR WoRKINGMEN.-
The Daily News of Nov. 81 has an
article about a comprehensive sys-
TEN of licenses just prepared under
the direction of Aid. John G. Horne,
which, if it meets the approval Of
the other aldermen, may result in
the working people paying tax for
the privilege of working in Chicago.
AS our president, Woodrow Wilson,
states, "a mans labor is part Of his
life" thus why should the working
man be taxed for his labor. AOtax
laid on working people for the priVi-
lege of working means a tax on their
right to live.
If there were minimum wage law,
an 8-hour day for all work, high
standard of wages in all occupations,
and if the cost of living were not so
high, then tax might be justifabIe
The fact that it is up to the alder
men to decide whether the working
people should be taxed shows how
little power the people really have. If
a tax is to be laid, why not put it up
to the people on the short ballot,
where the workingmen can vote
whether they want to be taxed on
their right to exist or not. This
would be better than leaving it to
the aldermen.
If the city is short of funds, why
not get at the root Of things and find
out why this shortage occurs instead
of adding to the burdens Of the work.

PEACE BY PREPAREDNESS
BELIEF OF HOKE SMITH

Atlanta, Ga, June 26.-Instead
of paying the widows or other de-
pendents of soldiers who go to
Mexico continuing pension in
future, United States Senator
Hoke Smith, of Georgia, who
was in Atlanta yesterday, believ-
es it would afford more timely re-
lief and cost the government less
money to pay soldiers families
at the rate of $50 per month dur
ing hostilities.
When the military emergency
bill comes back to the senate
from the senate military commit
tee, Senator Smith and other SEN
ators will strongly support pro-
vision for such payments. The
bill as it passed the national
house of representatives carried
the provision, but the senate mill
tary committee saw fit to strike
it out.
81 am intensely in favor Of
peace" said Senator Smith in dis
cussing national and information

l shall vote for just as many
dreadnaughts as can be built at
a reasonable cost and for an all
round equipment and develop
ment of the navy that will make
