John Redmond, the Irish leader, said his
object in rising was to emphasize that
what the premier and Mr.. Asquith had
said was the absolute unanimous senti-
ment of the house OF commons. The Irish
troops. he said, had shed a luster upon
their race. and. however torn by dssen-
sion or misfortune their country might be
at this moment, he believed that the
whole Irish race today was filled with
pride and gratitude for their achieve
ments.
The gallant Irish troops have during
the last year and half had no bitter
trial imposed upon them in the events
happening in their own country" he de-
clared. These events have not touched
their valor or their loyalty They have
remained one in their motto
But. nevertheless. many Of them had
thought that they were going to fight, not
only for the liberty Of the world, but, In
a special sense. for the happiness, pros
perity and liberty Of Ireland. Now they

evident that the Germans have no

there is profit for them in such an
