John Redmond Tells House of Commons Treatment of Ire land Is Calling and Full of Menace.
SAYS ACT OF ASQUITH
 BETRAYED IRELAND
Contrasts Irelands Feeling of Friendship for Allies at Be- ginning of War to Feeling There Now.
(By Review Leased Wire.)

LONDON, Oct 1S.- The Irish question was again brought to the
 fore in the House of Commons to-
 day with the introduction by John
 Redmond of a motion criticizing
 the system of government of the
 island. The motion reads:
 That the system of govern
 nent at present maintained in
 Ireland is inconsistent with the principles wherefore the allies are
 fighting in Europe and is or has
 been, mainly responsible for the
 recent unhappy events and for
 present state of feeling in that country"
 Ireland Feels Betrayed
 Mir Redmond told the House of Commons that the inclusion of Sir Edward Carson, the Ulster Unionist leader, in the coalition government. when the cabinet was reconstructed, meant to thousands of Irishmen the belief that they had been betrayed. He said he had prayed that Premier Asquith leave Ireland out of the coali- tion. The premier had refused and the result was galling.
 MT. Redpond moved his resolution in the presence of a crowded house. Among those in the galleries were Baron Wimborne, the lord lieutenant of Ireland, Baron Charles Beresford. Baron Pieri and Baron Stanfordsham, King Georges private secretary.
 Situation Dangerous
 The Irish leader said it was undeni- able that the situation in Ireland was full of menace and danger and he con- trasted this state of affairs with the genuine enthusiasm for the allies in Ireland at the beginning of the war. He proceeded to review the situation in detail

 "NationaIsts Snubbed"
 My object is to allay, not to in flame feeling. I do not want to make a party speech and accordingly start my survey with the outbreak of the war.
 From the very first the efforts of the Nationalist leaders were thwarted and snubbed and. looking back, am amazed at the success which, under the circumstances. attended their ef- forts. Thirty thousand nationalist volunteers had enlisted and if it had not been for distrust of Ireland in the early phases of the war the number of volunteers would have been trebled
 Promise Of Army Unkept
 The promise made by Premier As auth as to the creation of an Irish ar my corps also never had been acceded to, he commented.
 The difficult task of the nationalists to popularize the army had been sys- tematically thwarted, MT. Redmond continued. The new national univer- sity was not allowed to organize an officers training corps, while a num- Der of private schools had been grant ed the privilege.
 Changes were made but too late, he declared. Taking each thing individ- ually he went on. the effect was small but cumulatively the effect was enor- nous and the undoubted enthusiasm at the beginning of the war began to die away.
 The Cause Of Rebellion
 The final blow came in the forma- tion of the coalition government, he said. From that day. recruiting for the army had diminished and recruit. ing of the Sim Feiners had increased From that day things went from bad to worse and finally came the rebel lion.
