VIOLENCE AND
Home RULE
Wilson Says He Is in Complete Sym
pathy With the Egyptian Demands
for SelfGovernment.

1t is understood on excellent author
ity that the United States recognizes
the British protectorate over Egypt.
This step seems attributable to ef-
forts of the Egyptian Nationalists to
make play on Mr.. Wilson's fourteen
points against the British possession
of Egypt. President Wilson is under
stood to have every sympathy with the
idea of the gradual evolution of Egypt
to some form of representative or au-
tonomous government. At the same
time he recognizes the great offices
rendered Egypt, by the British admin
istration and feels strongly that
bloodshed and outrage are not the
methods by which a people can prove
its political maturity. Hence his rec
ognition of the British protectorate
is a hint to all whom it may concern
that President Wilson does not wish
his position to be misunderstood.
A note recognizing the British pro-
tectorate in Egypt was communicated
on Tuesday to General Allenby, spe-
cial high commissioner for Egypt and
the Soudan, by the United States con-
sul-general at Cairo. The text of the
note follows:
II have the honor to state that
have been directed by my government
to acquaint you with the fact that the
President of the United States recog-
nized the British protectorate over
Egypt, which was proclaimed by His
Majesty's Government on December
1S, 1914. In acknowledging this recog-
milton, the President must of necessity
reserve for furthur discussion details
thereof, along with the question of the
modification of any rights which may
be entailed in this direction.
I'm this connection desire to say
that the President and the American
people have every sympathy with the
legitimate aspirations of the Egyptian
people for q further measure of self
government, but they view with regret
any effect to obtain a realization of
these aspirations by resort to vio-
lence."-Winnipeg Review.

Irish Declaration Of Independence Sets
Forth Many Reasons for Its
Fight for Freedom.

New York, May 2.-Justice Cohalan
Of the state supreme court, received
today from Sean T. O'Kelly, the rep
resentative of the Irish republic at
Paris, a copy of the declaration of in
dependence adopted by the Irish re-
public's parliament, publication of
which has been suppressed in Ireland.
This is the first copy to reach this
country,
The text of the declaration reads:
Whereas, The Irish are by right a
free people; and
Whereas, For seven hundred years
the Irish people has never ceased to
repudiate and has repeatedly protested
in arms against foreign usurpation,
Whereas, English rule in this coun-
try always has been based upon force
and fraud and maintained by military
occupation against the declared will
Of the people; and
Whereas, The Irish republic was
proclaimed in Dublin on Easter Mon
day, 1916, by the Irish Republican
army acting on behalf Of the Irish peo.
pie; and
Whereas, the Irish people is re-
solved to secure and maintain its COM
plete independence in order to pro-
mote the common veal. to re-establish
justice; to provide for future defense;
to insnre peace at home, and good viii

canization of immigrants. If enacted,
it will lodge with the Federal Gov
ernment large measure of super
visory authority over certain educa-
tional institutions. A similar bill was
introduced during the last session of
Congress by Senator Hoke Smith, Of
Georgia.
This is only one phase of recon
struction. The threat of Bolshevism
will undoubtedly bring forth a variety
of measures designed to arrest the
spread of anarchical theory and sup
press inflammatory propaganda. Con-
gressional opinion favors the cure of
the evil but no effective remedy has
yet been suggested.
The Federal Government, having
as necessity of war taken a hand in
the tendency is in almost every case
to broaden it's powers and make 1t
the vehicle for carrying out the pro.
posed postwar reforms. How far
this tendency is to prevail is one
phase of the situation that is giving
the political leaders some anxiety.
To stimulate education without inter.
fering with existing systems and en-
croaching upon fundamental personal
rights will doubtless provide fertile
field for controversy when Congress
takes up the measure to be introduced
shortly after it convenes.
The irish ausstlen. :
The ground is being prepared for the
discussion of the Irish question when
Congress convenes. It is certain to
come up when the Senate begins the
debate upon the Constitution of the
League of Nations, incorporated in
the peace treaty. Opposition is al
ready beginning to center upon Ar
ticle x of the covenant, which, it is
contended, assures "stand-pat'
world by guaranteeing the territorial
integrity of the nations subscribing
to the League constitution.
Naturally Americans, interested In
the future of Ireland, are inquirine
whether this means that the power OF
the United States is to be exerted tc
prevent the Irish Nationalists from
gaining their purpose. Supporters OF
the League, of course, deny any such
intent upon the part Of the authors
of the constitution; but the Senate is
bound to scrutinize the entire treaty
not from the point of view of the in

Washington, D. c., May 5.-The

problems are coming to the fore.
:. Reform Wave In Prospect.
The Americanization and nationali.
zation movements, education, the
right of labor to employment at an
adequate living wage, the obligations
of employers to employees, and a host
of lesser questions arising in the
general field of reconstruction are
looming large on the congressional
horizon. The administration has al
ready taken up the task by enlarging
the activities Of certain bureaus, such
as the Employment Service of the De
partment of Labor, and the Bureau
of Education of the Department OF
the Interior. A wave Of reform legis
lation is in prospect when Congress
convenes about June list.
