U. s. SAWMHL WORKERS SMASH
 SCOTCH RECORD

London, June 21 = The famous New England sawmill unit, in which 325 Eastern college men enrolled for civilian forestry work a year ago, finished it's allotted task at Aridgay, Scotland, and was disbanded.
 Within two hours after disband- ment almost all the men in the unit had enlisted in the American forces 40 in the army engineers and 100 in the navy. The remaining S5 will start soon for the United States to en- list in various branches of the ser vice.
 The men who enrolled with the army engineers went straight into a training camp nearby, while those who enrolled in the navy were hard at work on American ships today. The committee which had charge of the enlistments was composed of Sydney Simmonds, Harvard, of Bel mont, Mass; Lloyd Aldrich, Tufts, of | Rutland, Vt; Earl Broadway, Maine University; William Pierce, Cornell and Blanchard, the former Harvard hammer thrower.
 The unit received an enthusiastic tribute from the British authorities on the comletion of the task assigned l to it. Although the Americans had only portable sawmills they broke all records for the amount of work ac- complished. Their task was expect ed to occupy them until late in Aug ust, but so eager were the men to gel l it finished in order to ioi0 the Ameri- can Expeditionary Forces that they I worked unheard of hours and gave the authorities the greatest demon
 stration of American hustle" ever seen in Scotland.

BRITISH POLICY . TOWARD IRELAND

Earl Curzon's Speech Taken to Indicate Home Rule
 Bill Is Delayed.
ONE PAPER DECLARES
 CONSCRIPTION IS DEAD
Even Journals Not Regard ed As Rigidly Partisan
 Are Severe in Comments.

|, London, June 21.---The speech by Earl Curzon Tn the House of Lords last night is regarded in the lobbies of Parliament as an admission of breakdown in the governments Irish policy, and it is believed that no fur ther attempt will be made, at least for some time, to introduce a home rule bill
 It is understood. that the govern ment now favors a federal solution of the problem which will be applica- ble also to Wales and Scotland. Pre- mier Lloyd-George has consented to meet deputation from all parties in both houses of parliament desirious of setting up a commission to draft such federal scheme.
 Earl Curzons speech is treated in this mornings newspapers as a sen sational development and is made the itheme of sharp comment.
 Home rule is dead; Irish conscrip- tton is dead,' says the radical Daily News, land the whole Irish policy of to the ground.
 Apart from military considerations, the condition of Ireland today is a AlOShtl OL SNCl PiOICSolOh bO ilACA we give utterance as vindicators of the ideals of justice and freedom"
 The Unionist Morning Post in its comment on the development says:
 The government once more has burned its fingers very badly by a mixture of rashness and inconsistency. = What will be the effect of this ab1ect surrender to the intran- isigeance of Irish discomfort and the arrogance of the Irish Catholic hier archy remains to be seen. *.'
 Less rigidly partisan newspapers are hardly less severe in their scom. ment.
 Irish priests and bishops have played a leading part in killing both home rule and conscription," says the Daily Express.
 f The Graphic says: '"The worst ele- ments in Ireland have been allowed Eby the committee of the government Ito get the upper hand. Much sterner measures are required !before order can be restored"

more have sold themselves to the militarists. One of the most remark able developments of the war has been the close alliance between the militarists and the socialists. In the ory there is nothing so divergent as socialism and militarism. War, in so- cislist propaganda, is anathelma yet we not only saw the German social ists endorse the war waged against the proletariat of the world but their leaders actually bartered away the lives of one million of their own peo- pie, for a price thstt has never been made public, in the great German offensive that was pledged to win military decision in favor of Ger many. The bargain Was that the socialists would make no opposition to the campaign from which so much was expected and everything prom ised, even if it cost one million Ger man lives.

MORE FEACE CAM0UFLAGE

Their peace offensive knocked ..,eo cooked hat by the allied victories on the west and east fronts, the kais- CT is forced to extreme measures of deception but they will be as trans parent and ineffective as all his other schemes. The Hun mind seems so dense tht it can not understand tlit the keener mincS of men in the allied nations see through his plum der:ng clumsy subter.uges
 In an attempt to meet the declara- tions of President Wilson and the British and French premiers that they will deal only with representa- tive governments in discussing peace, the kaiser has set up dummy repre- sentative government which deceives no one. He has made premier the Prince of Baden who has a somewhat acceptable though by no means con sistent record as pacifist and has given irresponsible seats with him III Cue CdDllet tU Illc 1e- NCT O1 Juc German socialists and one or two others who have been busiest in peace propaganda along characteristic German lines

They hswa absolutely no mandate from the peo- pie or from the reichstag and are not responsible either to the people or to the reichstag.
