MEG arrity Denies He
Aided Sabotage Plan
Denounces Publication of Won
Bernstorf Correspondence as
English Propaganda"

PHILADELPHIA, Oct I2.-Joseph Nc
Clarity, mentioned in the correspond
ence between German Ambassador Won
Bcrnstorir and Berlin as being suitable
TO carry on German sabotage IN TINS
country. issued a statement to-day IN
which he denied having any connection
with German plans. Publication OF the
correspondence by Secretary Lansing
was characterized by McGarrlty as
English propaganda
His statement in part follows:
"To this cowardly English propa-
ganda ! can only answer there are no

"As TO what Roger Easement. the
Irish patriot martyr, had to say OF me
while he was in Germany | know moth
ing, nor will ever attribute anything
but the Hottest motives to him.
at is a cowardly act TO accuse the
dead, who can make no defence. Espe-
ciallv is it cowardly when emanatlng
from the source which the English. gov
ornment publicly thanked through its
press for the betrayal Of the man who
was irving to do for Ireland what
Washington did for the colonies. Wash
ington was as much servant of Eng
was before the Irish rebellion.
"If we men Of the United States are
out to free the small nations, let us
show our good faith by libcrating that
small nation which has suffered the
most, which has suffered the longest.
Let US liberate ireland. whose sons
have shed more of their blood to make
these United States free and to defend
that freedom than any other nation OF
its size and population in the world.
Failing in this, history will show
we fought more in the interest Of Eng
land than in the interest of humanity
and small nations. as we proclaimed on
entering the war"
Mccarthy added that if any one
wanted 10 know his stand on the Ger
man submarine campaign they should

ulting over the loss OF British ships.
