NEW ROAD OUT IF
 TEMPE ABOUT DONE

The Scottsdale- Tempe road. on which work began June 15 of this year, .s practically completed, according to J. E. McClain, of Tempe, road overseer for district No. of Maricopa county's highway department.
 A few stretches here and there yet remain to be touched up" but It Is open tC traffic, and motorists who formerly toiled over the Hogback on low gear. as well as doaded trucks which had to unload at the bottom and make the hill in two trips, now have an 1S-foot band of good highway leav- ing the Tempe road 70 yards east of the state road camp and passing north eastward under the viaduct of the power canal to join the county road three miles south of Scottsdale.
 Private subscribers added s1,000 to | the Sl,S00 appropriated by the board of supervisors of the county, over 100 cit izens of Scottsdale, Phoenix and Tempe | being on the list.
 1 Practically the same route as the old
 trail is followed, except that the long grade over Hogback is avoided. The 1 road passes through a corner of Papago Saguaro National Monument park, and after it has passed under the viaduct of the power canal, continues
 to angle in a general northeast direc- tion until it strikes the northern bound ary of section 10, whence it strikes due
 east to the corner of the old county road. The remaining three miles of
 road into Scottsdale will be developed
 as part of the county's $4,000,000
 project and will be paved.
 A representative of The Republican
 recently made a trip over the new road
 with MT. McClain. Roscoe c. Perkins, engineer for the county highway com : mission. laid out the route after Me Clain had inspected a number or
 projects. and this work was completed f by Harold NJ. Bargman, county engi- neer

INSANE PAIR ESCAPE;
 ARE STILL AT LARGE

Two patients at the state hospital for the insane are at large-Sam Lucas, negro, and Freddie Fernell, Irishman. Lucas thinks that he is Jack Johnson, and came to town with the avowed purpose of making mince meat of two friends of whom he is no longer con- spicuously fond.
 Fernell wants to go back to Ireland, and can't think of anything else. He is rational at times, and was released some time ago on his promise to go to Kansas and work in the wheat fields. He got no farther than Prescott, how ever, before he was overcome by home- sickness, not for Ireland, but for Phoe- nix. He returned and was placed in the custody of three guards, from whom he escaped.
 Neither Lucas nor Fernell had been i located at late hour last night.

our,AlIies in the Near East
by cnAnLEs EyANs HuenEs

Probably at no time in the history OF the world
have there been so many fatherless and mother
less children MS there are today. Tens OF thous-
ands, probably hundreds OF thousands in Ar
menla, Syria, Caucasus. Persia, Mcsopoiania
and Palestine are not only without parents. bul
are without any strong parental government to
give them the help and projection which orphan
children OF other lands enjoy.
American Consuls and missionaries cable
the American Committee Tor Relief IN the Near
East almost daily regarding the situation, One
message from the Russian Caucasus pleads FOR
the support OF 10000 children at an average
expense OF two dollars per month per child,
Another from Tifis reports 10000 children IN
one region waiting for an answer to a previous
eabegram requesting help Reports from other
points indicate similar conditions. Among the
many appeals Il Is possible for this committee TO
assume responsibility for only the most pressing
cases, and II Is upon these that the committee
would focus the attention OF the American peo-
pie Splendid help has been rendered the little
ones IN other lands, hut these in Western Asia
are no less human than those who have already
been aided by American charity, II Is the duty
OF Americans, as well as privilege TO respond
TO this great opportunity and help keep alive the
best civilization that Western Asia his developed.
All expenses OF administration for this relief
are privately met, so that every dollar sent TO the
committee Is used directly by their agents in
purchasing food and supplies for the needy who,
according to the best adyiccs and from audited
reports. receive the fui benefit OF the funds sent
them.
Out Of the horror and nightmare through
which these people have passed comts the gratity-
ing word that we can be OF assistance; that our
efforts win prove ayailing. and that we can share
with these orphan children the bounty whith we,
as Americans. have enjoyed for years. The work
done by this committee has been most unselhsh
and effective under conditions OF great personal
sacrifice. May america respond 10 their appeals.

MARATHON RACE HELD DENVER
 ON JUNE Z

DENVER, Colo, May g (by Asso- ciated Press) ).-The seventh annual marathon race held under the aus pices of the Rocky Mountain News, will be held over the Littleton-Denver course, distance of ten and two fifths miles Saturday morning June z.
 The race which annually attracts the best long distance runners of the Middle Western states will have more entries this year than ever before, judging from the number of applicants that made known their intention of entering the western classic when the date was announced.
 Many of the men who have partici- pated in the race in previous years were.unable to enter last year because they were in some branch of the ser vice, but with their return and the re, sumption of athletics at the colleges of the state on greatly enlarged scales the entry list this year promises to be the greatest since the revival or the race seven years ago.
 The race is open only to amateurs, the winners to receive trip to the National A. A. U. track and field championship meet which will be held sometime this fall in the east. Special medals will be given to all service men who participate in the race.

 "In the name therefore of the people of Ireland, ask that the Irish nation may be invited to give their adhesion to the covenant of the league of na- tions, and that membership of the league-a membership available under article seven even to colonies who have freely and legilatiyely subscrib- ed to the supremacy of the English imperial parliament-shall not be de- nied to the government of free, in- dependent Irish republic"

BECOMES EXPERT AS
 ONE HANDED GOLFER

DEL MONTE, Cal, May 23 (by As sociated Press).-The possibility of achieving athletic success even under the handicap of extreme physical disa- bility is being demonstrated on the golf links here by Captain F. A. Sut- ton, a British army officer who lost a hand in the great war;
 Always a golf enthusiast and rated a first class player, Captain Sutton had forever dismissed from his mind the possibility of ever being able to indulge in his favorite game again. The possibility of, at least, amusing himself by one handed putting oc- cured to the captain The experiment was success and he continued to i'm prove in accuracy. Incidentally he was strengthening his remaining hand and arm by constant use.
 It was not long before he was try ing out some of the other clubs and, in the course of short time he found himself going through with his swing quite as he did in the old days. Today, there is not club that Captain Sut- ton is not able to manipulate and he is able to go out and play round with any of his friends without asking anything in the way of a handicap ad- vantage. In fact he is considered the marvel of the course, and always at tracts a gallery.
 Recently he paired with Jack Ne, vile, former California state cham

IRELAND WANTS TO BE MEMBER
 OF NEW LEAGUE

PARIS, May B (by Associated Press).-Here are the claims of the provisional government of the Irish republic" to the right to participate in the peace conference and to join the league of nations, as free and in dependent, laid before the conference in the form of a memorial presented to Premier Clemenceau by Sean T. O'Ceallaigh, the Sim Fein delegate of the republic" in Paris:
 Ireland is a nation which has ex- ercised the right of self-determination in harmony with the principles formu- lated by President Wilson, and accept ed by the belligerents as the only sure foundation for a world peace" read the memorial. Ut Is not only in the past that Ireland, generation after generation, has striven by force of arms as well as by all pacific means to regain her national freedom. At the general election last December. the issue, and the only issue, placed hefore the Irish people was the inde- pendence of their country, and by majority of more than three to one the representatives elected by the constr tutional machinery of the ballot box are pledged to the abolition of Eng fish rule in Ireland.
 "In none of the small nationalities with which the peace conference mas hitherto occupied itself is the unani- mity of the people so great; in none has the national desire for freedom been asserted so unmistakably and with so much emphasis.
 "Following upon the general elec- tion. an Irish National Assembly has met: an Irish republic has been con- stituted and proclaimed to the world; a. president has been appointed and with him ministers to direct different departments of state; a program of domestic policy has been issued; and an appeal has been addressed to the nations of the world to recognize the free Irish state that has thus been re- called to life.
 But while the national will has been declared and the mechanism of free government is ready, the former is being stif1ed and the latter par alyzed by England's ruthless exercise of military power. The president is fugitive; the Irish parliament t forced to conduct it's business in se cret; the most elementary civil rights are abrogated; courts martial are sitting at every center; and the goals are filled with prisoners, vic tins of every brutality and indignity whose only offense is that they have sought the freedom of their native land. It is in these circumstances that the Irish nation, through me, ad dresses the peace conference.
 Ireland manifestly comes within the scope of the principles that have been endorsed by civilized nations and it is for the application of these principles that the peace conference is now sitting. Ireland is weak; Eng land is strong. Ireland in every pos sible way has asserted her right to freedom, which England, by sheer militarism, is intent now as always in the past to destroy It is only by the exercise of tyrannical power that Ire lands right to freedom can be denied It is to the great principle of national freedom, represented in the peace con

In driving approach shots and putting, he quite held his own both in the mat ter of distance and accuracy. He has made a medal score of 84 over the course which is better than large majority of players are able'to accom- plish. He is considering entering a Decoration Day tournament which IS to be held here.
