Father Magennis Smiles
Society "Loyalists," He De-
clares, Oppose Represent
ative Government

The Tribune received the following
letter yesterday from Father Peter 3,
Magennis concerning whose promi-
nence at recent meeting of Irish
radicals protest was sent to Cardinal
Farley:
ITO the editor of The Tribune.
Dear sir: l notice in the Journals
OF yesterday and to-day that twenty
three society people have entered a
protest against my presiding at a
meeting in Madison Square Garden.
BY singular coincidence they call
themselves loyalists,' the Loyal Com
mittee: In the revolution days there
were loyalists,' too, peculiarly enough
from the same class as our modern
loyalists.' In the great crisis of the
young republic the loyalists' perse-
cuted, maligned and slandered George
Washington in the interests of Eng
land.
"The particular meeting referred to
by these loyalists' was convened in
the interests of representative gov
ernmcnt, the cornerstone of the re-
public, aud should those who we're
present at the meeting find them
selves in the same boat with Wash
ington, l do not think that .here is
much to object to.

Dublin and searched. All the best
known men of what is regarded as the
revolutlonary wing of the Sim Fein
are already in custody, but there is a
general impression that many inf1u-
entlal partlcipators in the alleged con-
sPlracy are persons never heard of hv
the Irish public.
Inc order for the internment of Sim
Feiners m taken into custody, according to
I1mes" dispatch from Dublin, states
that II, within seven days from the
date OF the serving of the internment
order, any interned person makes any
representation to the Chief Secretary.
1t will be referred to the advisory com,
mlttee which deals with the internment
OF aliens, and will be considered.
A leading Nationalist to-day said to
The Associated Press:
~ believe that there are undoubt-
edly German agents in active operation
IN Ireland, and that they operate at
fourth or fifth hand, so that even the
Sim Fein leaders, who think they know
everything, are quite possibly the dupes
OF knaves in the background.
You must not forget that until the
outbreak of the war Sir Roger Case
ment was very inconspicuous figure
dn Irish life, and had no prominent
association with any Irish movement.
Here may be half a dozen easements
as little open to apparent suspicion
as he then was. All Ireland knew of
him was that he was an ex-official of
the foreign Office"

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE, May 21.-The address de-
livered yesterday by French general
at the grave of Major Lufbery, the
American ace who was brought down
on the Toul sector by German airman,
was an unusual tribute from one soldier
to another. A complete translation of
this address follows:
at is not without deep emotion that
come to bid last farewell to friend
of many years, to comrade in arms,
and to render to him, in the name of
the French aerial service, q tribute of
our admiration and sympathy. Major
Lufbery was one of the first in the
struggle. Prompted by his generous
| desire, at the beginning Of the war he
endcavored to show France, in which
he had spent so many years Of his life,
the gratitude he felt by coming to take
! place in our ranks.
after having been for some time
with bombing squadrons he joined a
pursuit squadron. His remarkable
qualities soon stamped him as one of
the ablest. In Champagne, at Verdun
and on the Somme, fields of his COM
bats, he gained numerous victories over
the enemy and won the admiration of
his comrades. But it is to be noted
that his simplicity, courage and calm
remained always the same.
"Great was his Joy when the Star
| Spangled Banner was raised beside our
own flag for the same ideals Of liberty
and justice. He went with the Ameri-
can army after having fought with ad-
mirable courage in the French army,
furnishing a most noble example for all

agree to party truce and continued
to denounce us because we still be-
lieved in constitutional methods; be-
cause we aim at settlement based
on full freedom and self government
for Ireland under friendly settlement
with Great Britain, and because we
still adhere to the declaration of John
Redmond at the outbreak of the war
and believe that the cause of the Allies
is the cause of freedom throughout the
world
"The two great forces which have
been the root and cause of all Irelands
trouble in recent years have been, on
the one side, the stupidity and insin-
cerity of the British government, which
has absolutely refused, under the die
tation of Sir Edward Carson, to apply
in Ireland the principles for which the
Allies are fighting in Europe, and, Sec
ondly, the unlimited financial resources
supplied to the Sim Fein from New
York.
Therefore, feel justified in making
an urgent appeal to all those of Irish
blood in the United States to support
the one party in Ireland which is fight
ing for Irish liberty without betraying
the cause of liberty in other lands"

Italy Strengthened
BY Reverses, Says
Sir Robert Cecil

LONDON, May 22.-The Lord Mayor
of London gave luncheon at Mansion
House to-day to commemorate the
third anniversary of Italys entry into
the war. Among those present were:
Lord Robert Cecil, Minister of
Blockade; the Italian Ambassador.
Marquis 1mperiali; the French and
Japanese ambassadors, the Chinese.
Serbian, Brazilian and Belgian min
listers. the Russian charge d'Affaires
and representatives of the American
Embassy.
In proposing toast to "Italv. Our
Ally" Lord Robert Cecil expressed
Forelgn Secretary Balfour's deep regret
that he was prevented from being
present, but Mr.. Balfour charged him
TO convey his admiration for Italy and
continued prosperity and success.
Italy had had trials as severe as or
more severe, than any of the Allies,
but she was remembered not so much
Tor her trials as for the glorious wav
1r which she had retrieved them.
Naly's resistance on the lines of the
Piave would live among the most
famous battles in all ages.
Lord Robert believed that the great
feat of arms had not only been Of
great result to the Allies. but Of
enormous value to the Italians them
selves.
What had happened to Russia
showed the necessity for deeds, not
words. Well meaning persons believed
that if only you would use language

they would come and feed out of your

Dutch Blame Allies
For Food Shorta oe
Especial Dispatch to The Tribune,

WASHINGTON, May 22.-The Meth
erlands government has delivered to
the State Department through the
Dutch Legation here a rejoinder to the
American reply to Hollands protest
against the requisitioning by the
united States of that country's mer-
chant vessels.
A new element in the Netherlands
note is the charge that the Allies and
America, and not Germany, are respon-
slbie for the present food shortage in
Holland: In denial of the allegation
that Holland herself could not use her
shlps on account of the German sub
marine warfare, the note asserts Ger
many had provided a safe lane to the
Dutch ports.
The Dutch note further states that
the American reply to Hollands pro
test against the seizure of Dutch ships
was irrelevant as to the main points
making no effort to establish the legal
lty OF the seizure and advancing no
Jurldlcal argument, but merely reciting
facts.
1t is understood that the State De-
partment addressed an INJURY to Hol-
land concerning the latter's Willingness
to have the correspondence relating to
the requisitioning of the Dutch ships
published and that Holland has replied
it has no objection.
Nothing is known here respecting the
reported new Dutch decree prohibiting
the sailing of ships from Holland, but
it was learned authoritatively that any
measure of the kind does not affect the
departure from Holland of three yes
sells to replace the Java, Stella and
Hollandia, under an arrangement en-.
tered into by the two governments.
AS soon as these vessels sail from,
America three of equivalent tonnage
will be released in Holland.
The War Board has rejected a re-
quest of the Dutch government that
three additional Dutch h-owned ships in
the United States be permitted to sail
with foodstuffs for Holland. Holland
has made the point that the three ships
about to sail with grain for Dutch
ports were not included among those
requisitioned by the United States and
Britain, but were on the high seas
when the Dutch vessels were seized.
