RU[EFOR IRELAND
Tells of Unity of United States
Labor and Government in
Speech at Derby.

DERRY, England, September s.
Samuel Gompers. president of the
American Federation of Labor, and
William Bowen, president of the In
|ternational Bricklayers' Union, today
visited the British labor congress
which now is in session here and de-
|livered their fraternal greetings. Mr..
Gompers, who spoke at some length,
was enthusiastically received.
After speaking of the complete
agreement that existed between the
American government and labor on
the subject of the war. Mr.. Gompers
said he did not agree with the old
governments of England and their
treatment of Ireland. {.
Thinks Demands Just.
M sympathy was with Ireland,
and now is. with the heart Of real
Ireland" he declared.
He added that after the Boer war
the conquered Beers were found fight
England should have pledged itself to
grant Ireland her just demand for home
rule.
After telling the labor congress
what American labor was doing in
the war, MIR. Gompers said:
II would not prolong this war one
minute longer than is necessary. But
L would be unwilling to shorten it
one hour if it meant that the military
machine was to continue and would
bring the next decade into another

Vote on Size of Army.

II am also charged with voting
against the amendment to make the
Army either 100000 or 100000. The
difference between an Army of $4,000
and 100000 in the great military pro-
gram now in progress is intinitesi-
NAL: it is what the lawyers call lex
de minimis. The law does not bother
with trifles.
II admit that under peace condi-
tionS I was i'll favor of building up
the National Guard under federal
rules and regulations and under fed
eral control rather than q large rcsu-
lar standing army. 1t was this plan
that was adopted in the ma tional de-
Tense act: by reason of it we were
able to put i'll the war between 100000
and 500,0ao men with experience and
service In view of the splendid rec
ord of the Rainbow Division, which
represents nearly every state i'll the
Union. and a separate division of New
England national guardsmen. upon
the western battle front, 1 have no
apology to make for my stand i'll be-
half of the citizen soldiery.
1T may not be generally known. but
IT is a fact, nevertheless, that at no
time since my membership on the
committee, in any annual appropria-
ton bill. has the War Department.
either under a republican or demo-
cratic administration. asked Congress
TO appropriate for the maximum num-
Der or men provided for by law.
Until recently. and only since the
war has been declared. Congress has
always fixed the maximum number of
men for the Army. and the War De-
partment has estimated for the num-
Der to be appropriated for in each
annual appropriation bill For in
stance. up to the time of the Spanish
american war. the standing Army of
the United>States was limited by law
10 $4,000 men. After the Spanis,
american war it was increased to
100000.

"One relates to the vote on the

for a league OF nations to enforce peace,
us proposed by President Wilson In his
fourteen principles and endorsed By al
lied statesmen. was criticised and ap-
proved today IN the senate.
a, Senator's Walsh. OF Montana, and
Owen. OF Oklahoma. both Democrats.
praised the plan and commended the en-
dorsemcnt Of it by Premier Lloyd
George and other British leaders In re-
cent speeches. while Senator PoinceH-
,er Republican. of Washington. declared
such L league would necesSitate revision
Of the federal constitution and virtually
would be bringing about the aoroga-
lion OF the Monroe doctrine.
Senator Penrose Of Pennsylvania, Re-
publican. characterized the plan as a
novel idea" which should be carefully
considered. He also inquired as 10
whether the league was not being adro-
Gated for the purpose OF furtherinS free
trade.
During the debate. Senator Owen de-
clarcd that league Of nations was re-
Spons;ble for bringing autocracy IN
Europe to its knees" lie denied that
,hc league as proposed would IN any
way interfere with this countrys tariff
or industrial affairs and oeclhseo ln'S
IS the logical and opportunc time for its
establishment.
Regarding opposition OF Colonel
Roosevelt to the admission Of Germany
into the league. Senator Walsh. in ap-
proving the plan, said that unless Ger
many Is admitted. the other nations OF
the world must continue to maintain
large land and sea forces.
Senator Walsh read from writings or
