world depends can be brought.
No JurisdIetIOn Over Irish.
4-Why was the case Of ireland not
heard al the peace conference? What
is your position on the subject Of self
determination for Ireland?
Answer-The case OF Ireland was
not heard at the peace conference be-
cause the peace conference had no
Jurisdiction over any question Of that
sort which did not affect territories
which belonged to the defeated en-
pires. Ny position .on the subject Of
self-determination for Ireland is eX-
pressed in article IL OF the covenant,
in which, 1 may say, I was particu-
larly interested because 1t seemed to
me necessary for the peace and free
dom of the world that a forum be
created to which all peoples could
bring any matter which was likely
to affect the peace and freedom OF the
world
Ask About British Votes.
The President, il was learned, has
also received from other labor bodies
questions about the British votes in
the League OF Nations assembly, and
questions about the treaty clause
whereby Japan gets the German
rights in Shantung. These queries
will be answered soon.
Labor organizations OF san fran

dent. There was no such conference

up doubtful points in the treaty in
InterrOgations.
President Well Rested.
The President today was feeling
completely rested from his efforts in
the Northwest, and quite Mt and ready
for a strenuous two days in the bay
cities. He spent yesterday recuper-
atinE, strolling about the train during
long stops in the mountains. and
shaking hands with the crowds at sta
tions. But he retired early. and those
who met his train after $3.50 o'clock
failed to see him.
The President in his recent speeches
has been talking more and more di-
/ rectly to, leading treaty opponents.
in Portland, he named Lodge. 1t was
believed he might say something with
regard 70 Johnson in san Francisco
although heretofore he has pursued a
policy OF ignoring those trailing"
him.

day was enriched by the addition OF
another car occupied by the Federal
manager OF the Southern Pacific. 1t
was noted this car was more up TO

used by Wilson and which was first
brought to the coast. railroad men
say, when Roosevelt used it in his
