The Irish Convention

Nothing has been heard from the Irish conven-
ton in the ten days since it opened its sessions,
when Sir Horace PIunkett was installed chair
man with cordial unanimty and an entire absence
of excitement was reported. Although the Irish
question NAV appear from the outside being in
almost as bad a muddle as at any previous time IN
the past century not go back further, yet there
are several elements in the situation which make a
final settlement just to the whole people seem fairly
attainable within a short time.
Besides the convention itself whose harmonious
opening is good sign, there is the alembic of the
great war in which thousands Of the best men Of
the Unionist and Nationalist parties are joined in
fighting for the empire. This great fact should con
vince the rabid Ulsterite leaders that the Nation
alists may be trusted in an Irish parliament with
the problems of local sefgoyernment, for men like
Major William Redmond, who lately made the SUI
preme sacrifice on the battlefield, not likely to
be enemies of the imperial system that they have Of
fered their lives to defend.
Another element in the situation which makes
for aaying the discomfort that in times past made
Irish politics bitter is the improved condition of the
agricuturists of the southern counties, due to the
gradual elimination of landlordism by liberal
enactments
The disastrous result of the overt attempt of the
dent of the British empire made at time more fay.
orabe for such coup than is likely ever to occur
again, should be efectual a warming not only to
that fanatical party but to the Obstetrics who under
the lead of Sir Edward Carson, by seditious demon
strations prevented the home rule bill of the impe
rial parliament from taking effect Ulster has been
guided by both business and religious prejudices in
opposing local selfgoyernment for the island. tt
has been afraid both of the Catholic majority on
general principles and of taxation by that majority
which would discriminate against the big business
of the north Of Ireland that being the seat of the
Industrial strength Of the island while the rest of it
lives mainly by agriculture
As for the remainder of the United Kingdom, the
opposition home rule for Ireland has BEEN it may
be believed, permanently overcome When liberal
ideas relating to the matter have prevailed SO far
to have the veto power of the house of lords abro
gated for their sake, to that extent home rule has
achieved successful revolution With coalition
cabinet in charge Of affairs the house of commons
has said to the Irish people, @Come together and
settle the problem for yourselves"
II the FISHERMEN, pronting by the lessons of the
war, meet the opportunity in conciliatory spirit
there is no doubt that the Slim Feiners will see that
their dreams Of absolute independence are chimer-
ical The home rule party led by John Redmond |
having proved its loyalty to the empire, may be de
pended upon to stand for anything reasonable. |

EDITOR
Where College Athletes Failed


College athletics as generally conducted have
made poor showing in the enisting of students
for military service in connection with the present
war In the first call of the government for thou
sands of students and graduates to enter the
training camps for officers, there were not enough
available intercollegiate athletes to meet 90 per cent
Of the need. Thousands of the college seniors and
recent graduates we're unable to pass the physical
examinations
This disappointing state of affairs is not charge
able to lack of merit in physical training itself but
TO the fact that comparatively few students receive
such training in anything like adequate measure.
Dr. William I. Foster president of Reed College,
made the revelation in an address before the Ma
uonal Education Association. He said that ma
orlty of these men had been without incentives and
equipment for athletic training. Statistics furnish
ed by 143 universities and colleges engaged in inter-
collegiate athletics were quoted by him, showing
that only about II per cent of the total male stu
dents participated in the games, and that not half
the students in these institutions engage in any
form of systematic or organized exercise" Further
81 per cent of these institutions are reported as
doing nothing to foster and encourage the types
of physical exercise and healthful recreation that
student is likely to use in after-college life"
Dr. Foster said that these colleges "spend about
oLAIy IIDes DIS mucn mOHey 1Or edcn memDor or an
intercollegiate team they spend for the games of
each of the other students" In this opinion he
echoes a statement attributed to the president of
Williams College on a previous occasion to this
effect: 1--WE are annually graduating few men of
extraordinary athletic ability and many men of un
developed intellectual power. In athletics few
only are highly trained, the majority not at ALL"
According to DR.. Foster, as he is further quoted,
"the only policy through which college can meet
its obligations an agency of national defense is
to have no intercollegiate games, but inexpensive
athletics in moderation for all Students especially
for those that most need them"
Perhaps similar indictment to that here report
ed against colleges might lie against noncollegiate
organizations for general athletics and particular
games Of the membership of a large proportion
of these may it not be said that many are enrolled
but few are trained?
Another interesting point not developed by this
writer is whether the state universities where mill
tary instruction is compulsory do not make a better
record than such institutions as Yale, Harvard,
Princeton, Stanford, where military training is un
known.

oooPERATIoN, pREPAREDaEss, PEACE

Official and personal expressions exchanged by
the governor of the territory and the high commits
sioner of Japan leave nothing to be added in this
advance post towards keynoting the goodwill pre-.
vailing between these nations Of the Pacific and
their unity in facing the common enemy of the pres
ent period.
It was very happy circumstance that enabled
the governor to announce at this time the organiza
ton Of q company of national guardsmen from
among citizens of japanese parentage This added
participation in the community life furnishes fur
ther testimony to the practical success of the Amer
lean ideal where the Orient and the Occident meet
Honolulu has thus far been remote from the
war, not only physically but mentally 1t has not

great struggle The demand for vigilance and I'M

The visit of the commission is a reminder that
the peace OF the Pacific is vital factor in the last
ing peace Of the world. The preparedness, the mu.
tual understanding and the cooperation that exists
In these islands in large measure sets standard
for the nations. 1t should be constant reminder
to our citizens of their great responsibilities

 Today a free man, Andrew is pro- mitigating plans for the demOcratlza- tion and purifcation of orthodoxy.

WORLD FAMINE IN MEAT HIS
 PREDICTION
Shortage In Every Land As Result of Great War ShOwn-Men Eat
 Pound of Meat Daily

LONDON, Aug. 27.-Predictions of a world famine of meat after the war were made recently by Viscount Lewis Harcourt. He said the decrease of pasture land resulting from more ex- tensive cultivation would reduce the supply of cattle, and the supply Of home-produced meat would be further affected by the decision of the war of flee to feed the army for three months on homegrown meat.
 While at the Board of Trade last year he obtained estimates of the Ger man government that it would take five years after the war to restore Germanys stock of cattle to the nor nal figure of 23,OOO,OOO head.
 He estimated that, after the war, Europe would want to obtain or i'm port l6,OOO,OOO to 2O,000,OO0 head of cattle. For several years Germany would have to feed her people on i'm ported frozen or chilled meat and would come into a market where she had never bought before. Further, the men of the Allied armies had been taught to eat pound of meat day and one could not expect that they would abandon the habit immediately.
