NO PUBLIC HEARINGS
lobe GRANTED NOW
So Replies Chairman Flood to
Pleas to Be Heard on House
Irish Resolutions.

No public hearings are to be given on
the many resolutions introduced in the
House on the Irish question.
Chairman Flood Of the foreign affairs
committee has notified all those who
have asked for hearings that there will
be none because they would be an In
terference and an embarrassment to a
co-belligerent of the United States.
A letter setting forth this decision
has been sent to large numbers of in
dividyals. organizations and others who
asked for hearings. John ]. Curly, city
collector of Boston. was one of these.
Chairman Floods letter to him fol-
lows:
Some days ago I received letter
from you, addressed to me as chairman
of the committee on foreign affairs, in
exactly the same phraseology as a let
ter sent me on, March IA by Mrs. Han
nah Sheehy Skeffington of Ireland,
which letter was signed by a number
Of ladies and gentlemen from New
York, Philadelphia and other places.
Since receiving your letter I have re-
ceived number of these letters and
viii probably receive many more of
them.

Might Embarrass co-Belligerent.

"In your letter you call the attention
of the committee on foreign affairs to
resolutions which have been introduced
In the House Of Representatives, rec
ognizfng the political Independence of
Ireland and dealing with other phases
OF the Irish question, and requesting
that date be set for a public hearing
by the committee on foreign affairs to
(a) those representatives whose reso-
lutions on the Irish question have been
referred to the committee on foreign
anairs for consideration, and (b) to
fhe representatives of responsible and
Patriotic organizations of Americans
who have fled petitions with the
Speaker Of the House and with the
committee in behalf Of those resolu-
tions.
Il have given careful consideration to
your communication and the other let
ters of similar character, as well as to
the resolutions to which they refer. and
nave reached the conclusion that it
would not be for the public interest, at
the present time, to grant your request
for such hearing. The serious con-
sideration by the committee on foreign
ana1rs OF these resolutions might well
De considered as constituting an inter-
ference in the internal affairs of an
other nation, and that nation one of
our o-bellfgerents, and could scarcely
fail to prove a source of serious en-
barrassment to nation associated with
the United States in the war.
therefore regret that my sense of
duty, not only to this country, but also
to nation associated with the United
states in the war, makes it necessary
to give an unfavorable answer to your
request for such public hearing

central officers training camps at which
new classes will be taken in every

listed men, however, in making appoint
ments and ciyilian applicants are to be

The camps will be located in conjunc-
ton with the five replacement divisions.
The three infantry camps. which will
be much the largest, will be at Camps
Lee, Virginia; Gordon, Georgia, and
Pike, Arkansas. The first Of the new
centralized classes will open August 1,
and only enlisted men will be accepted in
that class. The field artillery school

Ga, These two will receive their first
classes July 15, and also will take in
only enlisted men for the first class.
The course for infantry and machine
gun officers will be four months, and for

Representative Lever Pays
Tribute to the Character
and Work of Late Senator

Before leaving Washington last
night to attend the funeral of Senator
Tillmar Representative A. F. Lever
senior member of the South Carolina
delegation in the House. paid this
tribute to the deceased senator:
Senator Tillmap more than any
man of his state during the past fif-
ty years impressed his ideals upon the
people. He began his career as leader
Of the organized farmers of the state.
His aggressveness in his first cam
paign for the Senate brought him the
nickname of "Pitchfork Tillman." In
the Senate he rapidly impressed his
wonderful personality and in his later
years, although enfeebled in health,
he became one of the very strongest
factors in that body for wise and con-
servative legislation.
His work in behalf of the upbuild-
ing Of the Navy is showing itself in
the great efficiency Of the naval or
ganization Of today. He took a con-
spicuous part in the framing of rail-
road legislation in the days of Presi-
dent Roosevelt"

present high state Of efficiency.
