IRISH MAKE PUBLIC
PEACE PLEA TEXT
Reveal Letters Written by De
Valera and Others to U. S.
Commission.
WARNS OF ARTICLE TEN
Says Peoples Devoted to Free
dom Could Be Forced to
Accept Kings.
WARNS OF ARTICLE TEN

The American Commission on Irish In
dependence has collated and made public
the voluminous correspondence that
passed between 1t and the American
Peace Commissioners, President Wilson,
Premier Clemenceau, Lloyd George and
other participants in the Versailles con-
ference in the unsuccessful attempt to
have the Peace Commission receive and
near canon de Valera, Arthur Griffith
and George Noble Plunkett.
The letters include the Irish Commits
sion's protest against the covenant of the
League of Nations, especially Article ~.
md De Valera's letter to Clemenceau. in
which the former protests that the Brit
ish delegation did not represent Ireland
and therefore were not empowered to
commit Ireland to the treaty.
Regarding Article ", the Irish Com
mission wrote: =
May we also take the opportunityt to
suggest that the fears of these petition
ers as to the effect of Article X, il
adopted, seem to have a very substan-
tial basis Of fact and reason. 1t occurs
to us. as ii doubtless has to them, that
the following evil effects might flow from
the inclusion OF Article Y. In its present
form:
81. That nations and peoples claiming
age old territorial integrities of their
own would, ipso facto. be forced under
the authority of other nations, or even
kingdoms, without a hearing.
90. That peoples the vast majority OF
whom are devoted to the principles OF
free governments such as our own could
be forced under the rule of monarchies
or military autocracies.
90. That the signatories, including our
country. would be bound, after the adop-
ton of Article X, to prevent the giving
or aid by outside advocates of liberty to
oppressed nations, which practice has
obtained among civilized peoples from
time immemorial
-. That the powerful signat tories, in
Guiding our country, might eventually be
compelled to wage war for the preser-
walton of territorial integrity. no mat
ter how unjust and oppressive, in any
part of the world"
The same letter contained the follow
ing proffered substitute for Article Y:
The members of the league undertake
to respect and preserve as against exter-
nal aggression the territorial integrity
and existing political independence of all
members of the league. In case of any
such aggression or in case of any threat
or danger of such aggression the council
shall advise upon the means by which
this obligation shall be fulfilled.
Provided, however. that the terrific
rial boundaries of no country at the
signing Of the covenant shall be deemed
to include any other country or nation
the boundaries of which are natural
ones, or clearly defined, inhabited by a
homogeneous people. a majority of whom
by vote of its electorate has deter
mined the form of government under
which they desire to live. and whose
efforts to establish the same and func-
ton hereunder are at the time Of the
signing hereof prevented by an army OF
occupation or other form of forcible re-
preston"

MANY HEROES HERE
FAIL TO GET JOBS
Forty-four Per Cent. of Ex-
Soldiers Applying in Vain
for Positions.
TEMPORARY WORK GIVEN
Some Applicants Have Been
Unable to Get Employment
for Months.
TEMPORARY WORK GIVEN

Almost half Of New York's discharged
soldiers and sailors have been unable to
find positions since leaving the service.
This fact was made known yesterday
by Alfred L. Smith, executive secretary
of the Unemployment Committee of New
York City. and is supported by official
figures. 1t was also stated that great
number of soldiers who were given work
were merely hired temporarily by en-
ployers, who wanted them to fill vacan-
cies during the vacation period.
Mr.. Smith made public an estimate by
Major Warren Bigelow, director of the
unemployment work here. to the effect
that approximately "A per cent. OF the
ex-ighters who have applied for work
here have not yet been placed.
Further figures, compiled by Col. Ar
thur Woods, assistant to the Secretary
of War, indicate that the percentage of
unemployed service men throughout the
entire nation that are looking for Jobs is
also quite large. In thirty-eight States
Col. Woods estimates the number for
whom no work has been found at 81 per
cent.
man who has been in tho army. navy or
marines" said Mr.. Smith yesterday.
I'VE contend that something should be
done for the men who went to war.
However, it is not the intention of the
unemployment committee, of which Will
lam Fellowes Morgan is chairman, to
continue operating the bureau in
definitely. We do not propose to find
jobs for ex-fighters forever"
Statistics compiled at the Reemploy-
ment Bureau for Soldiers Sailors and
Marines at sos Pearl street showed that
on a normal day last week out of 429
applicants for positions 213 had not
worked since they had been discharged
from the service, Some of them were
released more than eight months ago.
OF the 216 who had been employed
since discharge, but had lost their posi-
tons. 1t was found that temporary posi-
tions had been given to a very large
number and they were dropped as soon
as their work was finished. Only
twenty-six /of the men had held more
than one Job since leaving the service.
One had held as many as ive.
Another discovery made by the re-
employment workers is that the small
salaries paid to clerical workers now are
driving more than so per cent. of the
men formerly employed in such lines 70
