All the beautiful Irish colleens, who

capes over their shoulders and passed
the baskets for Ireland on the street
corners. 1t was the first day of the

In addition to the coleens who were

George Washington was the first
American to agtate for free Ireland,
according to a, statement made by

made in 1928, in which he recalled

BOSTON, June 80.-The Massachu-
setts Legislature heard to-day from
Eamonn de Valera, "President of the
Irish Republic" statement Of polit-
ical conditions in Ireland He said that
"if wc could get plebiscite we would
carry it to I" for the republic.
The Irish leader spent an active day.
AS the guest of the city Of Cambridge
ne addressed the City Council and made
pilgrimage to points in and about
Boston identified with events in the
early days Of the American Revolu-
ton. Then came his address to the
Legislature and a reception in the Hall
of Flags at the State House.
Nj. De Valera in his address said
general favor with the people Of Ire
land.
1T Is said that the Irish are divided
among themselves" he said. This is
not SO in respect to this question. If
we could get a plebiscite we could
carry 1t a to /. Ulster is mentioned
as an exception, but Ulster is a verv
small part of the island. In some
parts of Ulster there are very small
h'!orllleS opposed and in others the
majority sympathizes with most OF the
people os Ireland.
again, it is said this is religious
question. This, too, is not so. 1t hap
pens that the majority Of the Ulster
minority is Protestant and that the
majority OF the Irish people is Catho-
lie, but that has nothing to do with
ne present situation. England has
tried to keep alive this claim of re-
ligious differences, but it will not be
able to DO SO, and the Irish people will
be united in support OF Irish SOW
ereignty."
Prior to his address the Irish leader
