ponents of Irish independence to Oh
tain recognition at the peace confer
ence. The situation as explained by
the president is tina, the conference
is concerned with territory taken
away from the enemy and not pos
sessed by the allies, whereas the Irish
question relates to territory which Is
recognized by international law as
belonging TO Great Britain.
Delicate Problem Involved.
The senators, many OF whom have
been boldly advocating Irish freedom,
were urged TO carry this view OF the
matter to the people of the United
States. At least one of them-Sena-
tor Phelan OF Caliiornia-accepted
the presidents view OF the situation.
After the conference with the presl-

The specter Of starvation was again
used by the government yesterday as
the chief weapon to obtain the ma
tional assembly's consent to Ger
many's surrender. Both Hermann
Mueller, the foreign minister, and
Premier Bauer in spirited speeches,
called upon the delegates to save the
fatherland from unspeakable misery
by ratifying the treaty. For If II
were not ratified. they argued, the
blockade would be continued and even
intensified to an insuiferab'e degree.
Another poin, made by them which
weighed heavily in favor OF ratiica-
ton was that the German prisoners
of war in allied countries would be
held back until Germany had put the
last official seal upon her uncondl-
tlonal surrender,

lifted and the fatherland could begin

Reverting again to what he called
the violent peace terms he said;

have dismembered Germany, with
millions of our compatriots torn loose
from us. We can only assure our de-
parting brethren that we shalt do
everything TO sustain their national
conscience until the time when all
national problems, will be solved

Chance falls on the latter. In love
and trust the girl yields to him.
Next day Austin sets out to get a
minister to marry them, but is cap
tured and hurried back to prison,
leaving Nella to grieve, unknowing.
Nella goes to the city to join her
mother, now widowed, and becomes
secretary to John Radd, author, who
loves her and has previously asked
her to marry him. She grows to like
Radd and, terrified for her future,
marries him. A son is born, and she
permits him to believe the child is

Three years later Radd, hunting for
fiction material, visits the peniten-

the story of his nameless love--Aus-

At home the author dictates the
convict's tale to his wife. The poor

Austin tried to keep faith, is COM

Released from prison Austin visits

Radd tenderly asks Nella for the

tells her to choose; if she wishes to

easy, but if she remains she shall still
be his loved wife. The poor creature
is dumb.
