Quit Cabinet to Aid a Set
Element, Sir Edward
Tells Irish
u. S. Not Concerned
America Entered War for Her
Own Ideals, Ex-Minis-
ter Asserts

BELFAST, Feb. I'm a speech be-
Edward Carson said that circumstances
had arisen at the Irish convention in
dicating the possibility of trouble over
the steps the government should take
If he remained in the government, he
declared, he would have to be q party
to its deliberations and support any
policy it adopted. On the other hand,
he was not free, because of his pledges
as Covenanter.
1t was plain that, the convention hav-
ing been set up and Ulster having en-
tered it, the Obstetrics must remain
to the end and consider every proposal
with view to seeing whether there
could be q solution satisfactory to the
people of Ulster
This he described as cone that would
enable the people to feel that they
still maintain their status as citizens
of the British Empire and are protected
in their business and daily lives against
TIE possibility of harmful interfer-
cnce.'
Says Ulster Will Not Surrender
He protested against any attempt to
create an atmosphere that Ulster is
unreasonable, declaring:
ulster alone in Ireland has shown
any reason at all. Some of our old
friends and supporters, who are calling
out for settlement, really mean sur
render. If by settlement people have
IN their minds surrender, there will be
no settlement.
"a greater insult could not be
offered to q nation than is put forward
and suggested that unless the Irish
question is settled America will no
longer go on with the war, or will
prosecute the war with less vigor. Any
thing more ridiculous or insulting it is
impossible to conceive"
America has not come into the war,
he said simely to help Britain and out
of friendship to Britain. but to fight
for the same ideals of freedom and lib
erty, because she saw the world threat
ened by the domination of (, military
class.
ITO tell me that America, with thes
nigh ideals and having abandoned her
isolation to come into the European
war, was Influenced by the Irish ques-
ton is childish" he asserted $50 far
from helping settlement in Ulster
that kind of thing puts the mems backs
up"
OvatiOns to Sir Edward,
The series Of receptions and ovations
that Sir Edward is receiving here does
not appear to promise we'll for har-
monious solution Of the Irish questions
IN the near future.
Sir Edward arrived in Belfast Thurs
day and was welcomed like victorious
general. He motored through streets
that were decorated in his honor and
received d formal welcome from the
Mayor in behalf of listers Unonst
Council and an informal one from sew
eral thousand assembled persons.
Sir Edward to-day conferred with
the Unionist Council, and, it is under
stood in order to identify himself more
closely with Ulster he will resign his
seat in the House of Commons as the
representative for Dublin University
and run as a candidate for a working
class constituency in Belfast.

Professor Hart Insists 1t
Is Impossible to Sep
arate Them
Germany Disheartened
People Find Load Too Hard
to Bear-Bitter Against
the President

The first line defence of the United
States is on the Western front, be-
tween the French and British, DR.. AL
bert Bushnell Hart, of Harvard Uni
versity, told members of the Rcpubli-
can Club here yesterday. He was
speaking at luncheon in the clubs
quarters, 3D. West Fortieth Street.
Il have two sons in the service"
Professor Hart said, "and i speak as
Il man who has a STAKE. But I feel
there is q stake greater than the lives
OF all of Us. Unless we fight for the
KIND of peace we want, we will see
formed in Europe stupendous nation,
IN whose government we shall have no
share and which shall have ire
mendous share in settling our destiny.
victory by Germany means the end
of democracy and the ultimate sue
cumbing or invasion Of the United
States.
Germany would be glad of a peace
based on the status quo. But if she
is permitted to restore the status quo
we shall have an empire with the prin-
cIples OF Turkey, for so many years the
crime of Europe.
Germany's Scheme Of Empire
Germany has not helped her allies
because of friendship. Her plans all
are calculated to force through her
Central European scheme of empire.
"a peace based on the status quo
means the sacrifices of the war in vain.
AS far as the Austro- Hungarian EN-
pre- goes, it does not really exist The
Will OF the general staff in Berlin is
supreme throughout the lands Of Ger
many's allies. And it is not the pur-
pose of Germany that there shall ever
be anything but nominal Austro-
Hungarian Empire"
DR.. Hart declared he could not be-
lievc at is possible to separate the
German people and the German gov
eminent. The Germans realize their
government has given nationality and
power to them. The leaders in Ger
many, publists, statesmen and clergy,
have all united in the detestable theory
OF German supremacy"
Commenting on German domination
of South America, DIR. Hart said: eve
have no definite evidence that Ger
many planned any invasion of South
America. But wherever there are ten
Germans, she sends a consul, then a
warship, then minister and them
Americas educational system has
1alled Tor the last hundred years, Dr.
Robert M. McElroy, formerly of Prince
ton University, and now educational
director for Che National Security
League, declared.
Propaganda Necessary
Because of this failure" he con-
tinued, propaganda is necessary to-
day. 1t is necessary because our edu-
cational system has failed to imprint
ideals into the minds of our people
which will enable us to think and act
as a nation. rather than sass polygl0s
groups of peoples.
Right here in New York City there
are 100000 people who neither speak
nor write the English language"

after 9 o'clock last night. burst in the
front door, and before several men in
rear room could make their escape
had doors and windows blocked. The
men, according to the police, were play
ing stuss, a popular gambling game in
the Williamsburg section.
Fast as the police worked, they were
only just in time to nab. one of their
prisoners going through a window.
When the policeman grabbed him he is
said to have told the officer that no
was too prominent to be arrested. The
policeman wasn't impressed, nor was
he when the man said he was AdoIph
Levy, Republican leader Of the 2fst AS
sembly District.
Three other prisoners were taken by
the police. At the Stage Street station
they gave their names as Ryman Lip

Louis Feinberg, thirty-six, Of 9O2 Myr-
tie Avenue. and Max Abrahams, forty
TWO, OF AZ DdydIu oIieee' Ge'y aHu the
last two were charged with disorderly
conduct. An additional charge OF main
tanning a gambling house was placed
against Lipschitz.
This is the first raid to be made by
the police in the Williamsburg district
since Commissioner Enright took office.
Oddly, the raid was made in the very
precinct where three weeks ago the
Commissioner was doing duty as a
lieutenant.
Two Of the officers Knobble and
Williams in their anxiety to recover
cards and chips which they claimed the
men had thrown into stove when the
police burst into the room suffered
slight burns on the hands. But they
recovered the evidence.

CAN KEEP INSURANCE
Ex-Soldier's Policies May Be Con
verted into Ordinary Life

Preparations by the government fol-
reinsuring the lives of soldiers anc
sailors on their return have been hast
ened by signing of the armistice. AL
though regulations have not yet beer
fully drafted, it is certain that each
of the 1880, 900 men in the military OF
naval service now holding voluntary
government insurance will be permit
ed within five years after peace is de-
clared to convert it without further
medical examination into ordinary life
20-pay life, endowment maturing at
he age of 81 or other prescribed forms
of insurance
This insurance will be arranged by
the government, not by private COM
panies, and the cost is expected to be
at least one-fourth less than similar
forms offered by private agencies.
Private companies would not write in
surance on many wounded men.
The government will arrange to coll
lect premiums monthly, If men wish to
pay this way, or for longer periods in
advance. This may be done through
postoffices
The minimum amount of insurance
to be issued probably will be $1,000,
and the maximum $4,000, with any
amount between those sums in null
tiples of $500. There will be provi-
sion for payment in case of disability
as well as death, according to the
tentative plan. The insurance may be
purchased by any soldier, sailor or
marine officer, enlisted, and by wo-
men members of the army or navy
nurse corps; providing they already |
hold government voluntary life insur-
ance. About 95 per cent of the 1885,
BOO men in the service are covered by
this insurance, which expires after
they go back to civilian life and pay
ng premiums. This is the old system
devised to replace the pension plan
IF providing for ex-soldiers and sail
)rs.
