the government in recognition of their
unselfsh service abroad, were sticking

first papers was entirely waived when

DUBLIN, May 10-The net result
of the visit to ireland of three Amer
lean delegates representing Irish So
cieties in America apparently has
been to convince the American visitors
that the great majority of the Irish
people desire a republic and nothing
else. Another apparent effect has
been to convince doubling sec
tions of the Irish people hat the es-
tablishment of an Irish republic Is
practical.
The American visitors dealt with De
Valera as though he were a real pres
ident n when Frank Walsh n of
the Americans. announced that he
had reason TO expect that a safe
conduct" would be granted to enable
De Valera n Count Plunkett to go
to the Peace Conference, the Sim

and set all the wires working to check

All this has made a deep impress
