Il is understood orders have been given
10 all sections of the Irish volunteers

Irishmen maintain the right TO say
whether they shall be conscripted or not,
Captain William A. Redmond, son of the
late John L. Redmond. declared in
his first speech i'm the House of Com
mons since he was elected to the
constituency formerly held by his father.
His speech was during discussion of the
Government man-power bill The cap
lain was in military uniform and occu-
pied his fathers old seat in the House.
In 1914, he said, Ireland was Utmost
ablaze with enthusiasm on the side of
the Allies, but the sentiment of the
Irish people had since changed coward
the war, owing to distrust of the British
Government and in the word of British
ministers.
BY the Governments present action

be In open hostility to the war. 1t would
require armies in Ireland to recruit bat
xllons, while If the Government trusted
Ireland that trust would not be betrayed.
Captain Redmond warned the House that
II the Government pursued its present
policy there would soon be no Irish
party in the House of Commons, but
iAere would be a much harder nut to
ctack-Ireland
After Captain Redmond had spoken,
