Paris. May 2i.-MichseI J. Ryan.

today on the Touraine TO report to
the committee of twenty-five what
the Irish-American commission has
accomplished since its arrival in Eu-
rope.
The first result of MIR. Rysn's trip
to the United States is expected to
be an effort to get ,Irish-Americans
to unite in a demand that President
Wilson insist upon the granting OF
passports to the three Sim Fein
deIegates--de Valera. Grifiths and
Count Plunkett-to lay the case of
Irhland before the Peace Confer
ence.
The President also will be. asked
to insist that the Irish be allow, d
to sign the treaty separately from
the British. -
The Irish problem is causing Bit
ter feeling here and some members
of the American peace commissins1
hold the view that its injection is-a
great mistake when the maticf
could easily be settled by the league
