breeding types from slaughter. The
result is that in Germany, regarding
which we hear such sickening tales of
want and shortage, there are more pigs
than there were in the first year of the
war;
What is the position of Ireland. Pigs,
were exported and slaughtered without
the least hindrance. That is the first
cause of the present dearth. Secondly,
there was no regulation of feeding
materials and as these grew dearer
pig rearing for profit became impos-
sible. Within the past few weeks the
authorities suddenly wakened up to
the fact that a pigless Ireland was an
immediate likelihood. So they made
hasty rules against the disposal of
sows. And as generally happens with
ill-considered measures, the regula-
tions are causing plenty of annoyance.
However, as officials lose nothing by
bungling they can view the situation
calmly.
The Irish standard. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn. ;) 1886-1920, 1917-03-10

Britain as caresses and those of Ger
many as murderous?
care we to take the acts of one ma
tion as grounds for an alliance and
friendship, and the acts of the other
as basis for war and hatred, when
the acts of both nations have not been
done because of any antipathy or SYM
pathy for us, but because they are in
the throes of life-and-death struggle?
II am not justifying the acts of eth
err But should we, under all the cir
cumstances, palliate the acts of one and
condemn the acts of the other, or
should we in good conscience protect
American rights on land and sea and
condemn all their illegal and inhuman
acts, both great and small? Should we
hold one to strict accountability and
let the other pursue an uninterrupted
course?"
If We Declare War On Germany.
Hon. William S. Bennett, of New
York, said in the House on February
22nd:
''Most people now see that there is
no present necessity for a declaration
of war against Germany. If we de-
clare war, the following serious ques-
tions must be considered.
"First.-No nation has followed our
lead and broken off relations with Ger
many. If, therefore, we declare war
we definitely abandon our present posi-
ton as the most powerful neutral and
alone add strength to the allied side.
We give up definitely finally, and for
ever all right to speak for and with
the neutrals after the war.
"Second.-We enter, as an interested
principal, the tangled web of European
diplomatic intrigue. We assume part
in the decision of questions in which
we can have no possible concern.
'"Third.-We give our European al
lies the right to be taken into consul
tation in connection with the affairs
of the Western Hemisphere.
'Fourth.-As a practical matter we
waive all the claims of our citizens,
growing out of this war, amounting to
millions upon millions, against Great
Britain, France and Russia
The Irish standard. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn. ;) 1886-1920, 1917-03-10

make Ireland a colony of the United
States of America.
Should the United States decide to
depart from it's policy of splendid
isolation" and mix in as a world power
in future, it will need a naval and
military base in Europe. Ireland,
with it's numerous natural harbors and
its geographical position, is the ideal
place for naval base. The majority
of the Irish in Ireland would welcome
the chance of becoming American citi-
zens without leaving the Gould Sod"
The millions of Americans with Irish
blood in their veins would gladlx,wel
come the mother country as an ad-
ditional state in the Union. The Brit
ish Government should welcome the
change, which would transform Ire
land into friendly American neighbor
from it's present state of sulky and
rebellious member of the British EN-
pire. American manufacturers would
take advantage of the change to make
Ireland their headquarters for Euro
pean trade. American tourists would
make Ireland their first stopping place
in Europe, and the Americanized Ire
land would soon become one of the
most prosperous nations in Europe.
The transformation of a turbulent
and impoverished Ireland under Brit
ish rule into a happy and prosperous
American colony is no "pipe dream -
and may be more easily accomplished
now than at the peace conference.
How? BY purchase. "Englands diff
culty-Ireland's opportunity" has long
been the slogan of Irish patriots. The
British Government needs money,
foodstuffs and men to win the war. If
offered tempting price England may
be induced to dispose of the Irish
white elephant" and in this way raise
quite considerable amount of money.
Should the deal go through successful
ly and the United States enter the war
as belligerent the foodstuffs would
continue to be shipped, also the war
munitions; the British army of occu-
patton in Ireland would be automati-
cally released from duty there and be
available for the fighting front, and
the young Irlshmen who cannot be in
duced to fight under present conditions
would rush to the recruiting stations
without any CONSUMPTION to fight under
the Stars and Stripes.
But directors to this proposition will
say, England may decline to sell Ire
land to the United States" Very we'll,
then, the United States may decline to
sell England munitions and foodstuffs
and may prohibit the raising of war
loans. D. T.

Pertinent Remarks Of congressman
Sweet and Bennett.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 2s.-Hon.
Burton E. Sweet, of Iowa, in the House
of Representatives, said on Feb. %:
Has not Great Britain repeatedly
violated the rules of international law
applicable to neutral nations, pilfered
our mails, intercepted our cargoes
bound to neutral ports, destroyed our
commerce, and interfered with cur
freedom of the seas?
Are we to treat these acts of Great
