IRISH LABOR TO AID

LIMERICK, April 2S.-The fate of the

to-day while the executive OF the Irish
Labor party conferred with the Limerick
strike committee. The conferences lasted
throughout the day. An alliance with
the Labor party 10 proposed.
1t is reported that tho strike leaders
are disturbed by a rumor that the mer-
chants are becoming FESTIVE over the
heavy losses to their profitable trade
which the strike involves
The meeting. which was held in the
Mechanics Institute, continued until
nearly II o'clock this evening, when
the announcement was made to the
eagerly waiting crowd that tho pro-
posals under discussion were OF such
Importance that a decision on them
could not be reached until Thursday.
The people we're of the belief that
there would be a continuation of the
strike and that ultimately the movement
would prove successful because OF the
added statement by the representatives
at the meeting that promises CT support
were coming from all quarters and that
the reports of the subcommittee we're
most satisfactory.
After the announcement the crowd

POPULAR SUPPORT
SOUGHT BY WILSON
Appeal Believed to Aim at
Public Sentiment.
Special DespotcA to The Sun.

WASHINGTON, April 23.-The imme-
d ate object Of President Wilson'S public
statement In Paris regarding Italy's
claims IL believed here to be to bring the
pressure Of French. British and Ameri-
can opinion to bear against the Italian
contentious. Whatever advantage the
President may hope to derive from Ital-
ian public opinion Is discounted here In
advance. although adm ttedly some OF
the radical and opposition elements In
Italy may be stirred by the appeal. but
as there elements are made up mostly OF
Socialists and near Boisheviki the less
effect they have on Italian AFFAIRS the
better for all concerned, according TO
Italian spokesman.
Yet a pronounced stand by the Brit
ish, French and American press, IL II
sides with the President, may have an
effect on the italian people and tho
Italian leaders. SO far it Is difficult
10 forecast just how genuine the sup
port for the President will be. The pre-
diction is that France will give moro
support than Great Britain.
The Jugo- Slavs here are celebrating In
honor of the Presidents public state
ment, which they hail as a death blow to
the italian aspirations as announced by
Itsly's leaders In n statement issued
tonight DR.. Voyslav NJ. Yovanovitcll.
director Oh inc OlHCldi pu-
reau Of the Kingdom OF tho Serbs Croats
and Slovenes, said:
The firm and frank declaration of
President Wilson has made an excellent
impression in Jugo-Slav circles In the
United States. I need not refer to the
pleasure which the declaration OF Presi-
dent Wilson has given US.
But I will go even further and say
that the Italians too owe him a debt of
gratitude, as he has saved their states
men from taking a decision which would
nave compromised irrevocably the future
peace of the world. This will be clear
to every intelligent italian once the
fictitious excitement about the question
OF the Adriatic. largely due to an ex-
cessive propaganda OF the reactionary
and military parties in Italy, has died
away.
Italy was taught to believe that the
seizure OF Jugo-S)av territory was the
only profit she would derive from the
war. The people do not yet realize that
the real fruit Of their victory was the
liberation of italy from tho grip OF Ger
many. Now Italy will take her place In
the comfy of nations charged with the
| preservation of tho peace SO dearly

main difference is on accomplishing
this by cession through Japan or by

HAND CRENADES TO
ENCOURAGE SAVING

Millions of hand grenades manu-
factured to carry death and destruc-
tion to the German army, are to be
diverted to the peaceful purpose OF
encouraging thrift among the school
children Of America The grenades
with the explosive charge absent, will
be distributed by the savings divisions
of the treasury department through
the savings directors of the twelve
Federal reserve banks. Each grenade,
when it reaches it's ultimate owner,
will have been transformed into a
miniature bank which will hold
pennies and dimes to be saved until
they can be converted into Thrift
Stamps and War Savings Stamps.
The distribution of the grenade
banks will be under the control of the
district savings directors. The plan
contemplates the award Of grenade
bank to each child under ten years OF
age who earns enough money to buy
War Savings Stamp during the va
cation period and who brings to his
teacher, when school opens, story
telling how the money was earned:
Children over ten years of age would
the resumption of school following
buy two War Savings Stamps.
The grenades, in bank form, are
completely equipped as for active
service except for the explosive
charge. On the face Of each grenade
will appear the inscription "Buy w.
S. S."
Bemidji's quota Of the banks will
probably reach the city shortly after
the resumption of school following
the summer vacation.

ways, there has been great increase
of interest in the construction of

proved highways are -one of the
states greatest needs, I do hereby
designate June II, 1919, as good
roads day, and urge that on that day
the people comply with the legisla-
tive enactment. and that until next
election, every effort be made~to call
the attention Of our voters to the
necessity Of adopting the proposed
