Nationalist in
Minority Report
FAVOR Tax Control

LONDON, April 12.-Nationalist mem
bers of the convention, including Arch
bishop Harry and Bishops O'Donnell
Diocese of Raphoe) and Macrory and
Joseph Devlin, signed minority re-
port dissenting, from certain recon-
mendations of the majority. They say:
Except for some important political
and labor abstentions, the convention
worthily reflected almost every phase
and interest and class in the varied life
Of Ireland. But there have been no
sure means of knowing how far it ex-
hibited the mind and will of Ireland
at the present time, nor any guarantee
that its decisions, Independently of the
suggestions made by the government,
would take effect in law. The Sim
Fem organization stood aloof alto
gether."
They believed that if a measure Civ
ing to the Irish full control of their
affairs was agreed to and given effect
by the government the vast majority of
Nationalists would bend their minds to
making it success.
Hoped for Contented Nation
ut locked as though the gravity of
the times, the principles Of freedom for
which the Allied nations claimed to
stand, the widespread desire for a set
Element throughout the dominions and
among our American kindred, and the
disastrous consequences of further con-
f1ict and dsunion," the report contin-
ues, might bring about spontaneous
resolve among all the delegates to es-
tabllsh our country as free and con-
tented nation within the empire"
abandonment of opposition to Home
Rule by the Southern Unionists, and
regret that the Ulster Unionists did
not give much cooperation in construc-
tive work. They advocate a dominion
system, which would put all Irish af-
fairs, including taxation. under the
Irish Parliament, while leaving foreign
relations, the army and navy and the
making of war ard peace under the
Imperial Parliament.
They hold reconciliation difficult, I'M
less. as the report puts it. "the British
people sincerely believe in liberty for
its own sake, and are willing to apply
to Ireland the principle that the sup
posed interests of great states shall
not override the rights of small ma
tionalitics"
They give a detailed argument for
Irish control of taxation, and suggest
a joint British-Irsh commission for
commercial and postal matters, pro-
pose an arrangement for imperial con-
tribution by joint negotiations, and
also that Ireland shall have the same
powers as the dominions of providing
for local defence, adding:
"Any attempt to impose conscrip-
ton upon a nation without it's sane
ton is utterly impoltic and unjust and
bound to end in disaster"
They oppose membership in the
British Parliament, as upsetting the
balance of the British parties. They
prefer joint council, but waive objcc-
tons and agree to a delegation of
forty-two members at Westminster.
They agree to Unionist representa-
ton of 40 per cent in the lower House,
and to the majority scheme for repre-
sentation of the Southern Unionists
They oppose the postponement Of vital
questions until after the war.

Nationalist Turn
All Attention Nolv
To Defeat Draft

LONDON, April PA promise of
Home Rule bill by the government has
not had the smallest effect in easing
the way to CONSUMPTION in Ireland. &C
f D"bn The Sp Unons dSp Will not P9 st
quiet and allow the bill to be rushed
through, and the Nationalists are more
concerned in the defeat of CONSUMPTION
than in obtaining Home Rule. In con-
sequence, the situation as regards Home
Rule at present is that nobody wants it.
Meanwhile, "The Irish Times" which
in the past clamored for conscription
and Wednesday Endorsed the resolution
of Ulster Unionists in Parliament &C
Dillon to make bargain with the gov
eminent. "The Irish Times" suggests
that in the six weeks before the ma
chinery for CONSUMPTION can be in
working order the Nationalists should
undertake to raise seven divisions by
voluntary recruiting-a result which, it
says, should persuade the government
to abstain from enforcing CONSUMPTION.
W. F. O'Connor, High Sheriff for the
City Of Cork, has requested that he be
relieved of his duties as protest
Irish party candidate for Parliament in
North Kings County, at the request of
his supporters, has decided, as pro-
test against CONSUMPTION, not to con-
test the seat against the Sim Fein can
ddate, although he was confident of
winning. Mr.. Dillon is said to hav.
sent him message advising him 10

to the Unionists. It was agreed that
IN the South adequate representation
tor the Unionists could only be secured
by nomination, but as the Ulster rep
resentatives had informed the conven-
ton that those for whom they spoke
could not accept the principle Of nom-
nation, provision was made in the
scheme for extra representation of
Ulster by direct election.
THE majority of the Labor repre-
sentAtives associated themselves with
the Nationalists and Southern Union
:sts in building up a constitution with
provisions of which they found them
selves in general agreement. They
frankly objected, however, to the prin-
clple of nomination and to what they
regarded as inadequate representation
of labor in the upper house.
"Throughout our proceedings they
helped IN every way toward the at
tainment of an agreement. Nor did
they press their own special claims in
such manner as to make more diff
cult the work. already difficult enough,
OF agreeing upon constitution.
Il trust l have said enough to enable
the reader of this report and accom-
panying documents to form an accurate
Judgment upon the nature of the diff
culties of the task before the conven-
ton and upon it's actual achievement.
While technically it was our function
to draft constitution for our coun-
try, it would be more correct to say
we had to find way out Of the most
complex anomalous political situation
to be found in history, might almost
say in fiction.

NEW JOBS FOR WOMEN

Before considering some of the new
est opportunities that the war is OPP
ening to women already trained or
willing to equip themselves for spe-
cial work, read these paragraphs:
"The pitifulness of the unprepareo
women and the cruelty of casting
them out on the world to earn a liv-
ing at a time of life when it is too
late to prepare and with no fitness
for needed service, is the crime gainst
the young women of the past and the
weakness Of woman's position today.
1T is no use to want to shake ones
fist in the face Of the past; the thine
to be done is to change the whole at
|titude of public opinion in regard to
labor, its dignity and power, and then
open up the world Of service freely to
those who have the will to take it

Howard Shaw, chairman Of the wom-
ans committee of the council Of ma

ton of the woman power of America,
but is enc of the strongest forces in

portunity and recognition of women,

ways in which women are invited t,
serve themselves and their country,
too:

eminent.
Examinations for positions in fer
mentation mycology have been offered
to women by the United States civil
service commission.
The War Department has made
women eligible as code clerks if they
have had three months training with
