IRISH OPINION

Declaring that the governments conscrip-
tion-home rule policy is disastrous for Ireland at
this time Sir Horace Plunkett, chairman OF the
Irish convention in a letter to the press, sug-
gests the immediate establishment of a respon-
sble government in Ireland way out of the
difficulty.
"At the gravest crisis with which the Empire
has ever been faced" said the letter, the gov
eminent has staked her existence on two-fold
Irish policy-conscription and home rule. They
cannot achieve both except at the cost of much
present blood and the lasting hate. They might
achieve the first and by it make the second i'm
possible. In my opinion they would fail in the
attempt and have to go on leaving both undone.
Their successors then would have to find way
out of the worst situation in my memory, which
goes back to the Fenian days. fifty years ago."
Asserting his opinion that it is impossible
even to achieve the double purpose, Sir
Horace, says further, "I believe there is only one
alternative namely to set up responsible gov
eminent Ireland.

FRENCH APPOINTED
Intment of Field MARSHAL Viscount

The appointment of Field Marshal Viscount
French as Viceroy of Ireland comes somewhat
as surprise. 1t was known that the British
government was experiencing considerable diff
ficulty in finding a successor to Baron VIM
borne and that this was the reason for the de-
lay in announcing officially the appointment of
Edward Short as Chief Secretary, which was
known unofficially many days ago, but no one
anticipated such a purely military appointment
as that of the celebrated Field Marshal. His
name has been mentioned it is true, but only in
connection with scheme with placing the Lord
Lieutenantship in commission, way out
of the difficulty, but it was declared from au-
thoritative sources, that the name of General
Mahon was generally favored as likely member
of the triumvirate
Vscount French is of Irish extraction. He
has seat iE Ireland, is colonel of Irish rege-
ments, and popular figure in the country.

FLIMSY CHARGES.

Bolsheviki demands that the American and
French consuls at Vladivostok be recalled have
brought official statement from David R.
Francis, the American Ambassador, or from Mr.
Nouelens, Ambassador of France. The definite
made by Mr.. Tchitcherin, the foreign minister
were coincident with the arrival of Count Won
Mirdach, the German Ambassador to Moscow.
Regardless of the strong pressure put upon
the entente emissaries in the last few weeks to
recognize the Soviet government, which is
making full of the Siberian incident, the position
of the embassies remain unchanged.
The Bolsheviki demands on Mr.. Francis We're
First, the removal of John K Caldwell, Amer
lean consul at Vladivostok, second, investiga-
ton of his part of the alleged negotiations with
the American Legation at Picking, and third
statement of the attitude of the American gov
eminent toward the Soviet republic.
Mr.. Francis has sent communication to the
Bolshevik government regarding the alleged
participation of Americans, French and British
in Siberian counter revolt plot, in connection
with which the Bolsheviki put plainly the ques-
ton of recognition of their government.
The American embassy, the note says, care
fully scrutinized the documents submitted by
the Russian government. In the American view
point, the documents fail to show any connection
of American officials in these plots.
The American embassy, the Ambassador
points out, interrupted the documents to show
only that persons plotting counter revolt con-
templated asking the assistance of Mr. Cald-
well, Consul, Admiral Knight, and the repre-
sentatives of the allies in Pekng including the
American minister, but fail to show either the
consummation of the hope of the revolutionary
in this direction, or that the Americans par
ticipated or promised aid in any way.
1t is unfortunate that in the present state of
Russian international relations such flimsy
charges should arise.

in battle of shot as traitors when captured. If
they are honoraby discharged and take off
their uniforms over there and some months
afterward try to come back into this country
they arc barred on the ground that they have
