Hibernian Head Is
Cheered on Forecast
of Irish Freedom

Atlantic City, n. j., Aug. 20. -
James ID. Deery, of Indianapolis,
national head of the Ancient Order
of Hibernians, was cheered at the
opening session of the Pennsylvania
Grand Lodge of the order here, yes
terday when he predicted that Ire
land would be free. Freedom will
come to Ireland, not through arms
and bloodshed, but the orderly pro-
cesses of justice and. equity" the
speaker declared. The outlook for
Ireland never was so bright. The
fruition of centuries of honest efforts
to the attainment of liberty cannot
longer be denied her"

order to reassure the country
against insolving it in the armed
conflicts of the old world"
New Expresses View
Senator New said: THE meeting
resulted in no changes of opinion
among the members of the commit
tee" The Senator, however, eX-
pressed the belief that the President
was convinced that changes in the
League would not necessitate the
return of the Treaty to Germany for
signature.
Senator Knox, of Pennsylvania
declined to be quoted upon his I'M
pressions of the White House con-
ference.
The Senators to-day were deeply
impressed, it appeared, by the
change in President Wilson's attl-
tude regarding the binding force of
the League of Nations Covenant.
When the President first cabled the
news of the Covenant and again
when information of the French
clared that the League possessed an
authority which the member na-
tions were bound to respect.
AS outlined to the committee the
President now claims only a moral
obligation, coupled with an element
of judgment, was binding the ma
tions to the support of the Leagues
mandates, Senators said.
Precedent Violated
The Senators also declared against
the precedent which is being set BY
the President, in declining to pla &c
in the hands of the committee the
many supplementary documents
which formed so important a part
of the deliberations at Versailles.
Never before in the presentation of
| a Treaty to the Senate has the COM
| mittee been denied access to the
collateral explanations that accom-
panied a treaty, one of the veterans
| of the Foreign Relations Committee
stated to-day, but the President
made clear to-day that not only are
| these supplementary documents uI-
available to the committee now, but
their final disposition is matter of
doubt, and they may be kept from
publicity for all time.
Frequently during the meeting
the Senators followed leads which
| they anticipated would bring them
information specially sought, but
| each time that they approached the
hnal answer. it was said that the
President explained that it would bc
unwise to discuss these matters. A
reference to Secretary of State Lam
sings statements regarding tire
Shantung settlement, it was said.
brought a flush to the President's 5
face and he stated he did not hold
the same view as the Secretary of
state. The President declined to
state how he voted on the question
| of racial equality, but he explained
to the committee that on many of
the most important decisions no az
tual vote was taken, the decision
being adopted without protest from
| the group at the Council table. The
| Irish question was not raised.
On several occasions it is said
| Senator Pittman, of Nevada, Demo
crat, interjected answers to ques-
tons propounded by the Republican
| Senators, but the President made
no comment and answered these
/ questions himself when the Senator
, had finished.
Rhine Guard For Fifteen Years
A fact which impressed the Sena-
tors was the statement that an
army will be maintained on the
| Rhine for the next fifteen years. The
maintenance of an army for SO lons
a period was not anticipated by the
Senators.

of the President, who was permitted
to answer questions or not, as he
saw fit, and that courtesy prevailed
throughout the conference. Accord
ing to one Senator, the meeting be-
tween the President and the COM
mittee was "oppressively polite"
Another reported "a pleasant time
was had by ALL"
But privately, the Republican Sem
ators declared that the meeting had
been productive of little real in
formation that will facilitate the
handling of the Treaty by the For
eign Relations Committee.
II was disappointed in the infor-
nation obtained was the only COM
ment made by Senator Lodge. The
Senator, however, indicated that
diplomatic interests had prevented
the President from disclosing many
of the details about disputed points
in the Treaty and Mr.. Lodge sup
ported the stand of President Will
son in this particular as we'll within
the, rights of the Chief Executive
If he believed disclosures were not
compatible with the public interest.
Hitchcock Pleased
Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska,
ranking Democrat of the Foreign Re-
lations Committee, expressed his
qualification over the White House
conference, which, he declared, was
an event both clarifying and salts
flying"

Illuminating and conclusive explana-
tion of all debated questions" he
said. THE Republican members of

and predicted that as a result of the
meeting action on the Treaty in the
committee will "go fast"
Senators Borah and Johnson. aft
er review of the record of the
White House meeting, issued a JOINT
statement POINTING out the signIfi-
cant facts developed by the ques-
tloning of the President and while
the other members almost all held
similar views, they refrained from
commenting at length.
Moses Disappointed
Senator Moses, of New Hamr-
shire, however, expressed his dis.
appointment over the failure of the
committee to obtain enlightment IN
debatable points. 81 went to the
White House seeking information,
which did not get in plentituGe,
to say the least" he commented.
The President, however, was very
frank and made no evasive answers.
When he came to points where lie
did not wish to answer he stated
his position clearly. l was i'm
pressed. however, with the fact that
the Treaty is a document of faith.
We can only hope that it will come
out for the best"
Senator Fall, of New Mexico,
stated that his position regarding
the Treaty had not been altered.
The Senator presented a list of
twenty questions to the President,
covering the disputed points in the
Treaty, and the President promised
that they would be answered within
short time. A number of TIE
| questions were similar to those pro-
pounded in the course of the con-
ference.

George Criticised
For His Silence on
Expenditure Plea

London, Aug. 2O-Disappointmen
that Premier Lloyd George, in his
address in the House of Commons
ignored the general demand for a
reduction of national expenditures
was the feature of the comment of
most of the newspapers yesterday.
Friendly and hostile editorials gem
orally agree that he made an excel
lent plea for economy in industry
and increased production, and also
that he offered some sensible pro-
posals for a future industrial policy.
Such comments, however, are over
shadowed in most of the newspapers
by sharp condemnation of what is
termed his failure to recognize the
extravaganza and waste in govern
ment departments.
