10000 at st. Patrick'S
Day Meeting Applaud
Irish Freedom Demand

Washington advocates OF irish free
dom and independence are hostile to
a league Of nations that does not pro-
pose emancipation Of the Emerald Isle
from British rule.
This was the unmistakable senti-
ment reflected in resolutions adopted
last night at a mass meeting in Lib
erty Hut under auspices of the United
Irish Societies of the District The
event was the climax Of the National
Capitals celebration of St. Patrick :
Day.
Ten thousand people cheered as
Rosa T. Downing, a recognized leader
IN the Irish movement in Washing
ton, presented resolutions to the mass
meeting protesting against any
league OF nations plan which does
not stand for Irish freedom. There
was a chorus of ayes as Mr.. Down
ing put the resolution.
Every seat and all standing room
was taken by the crowd that had as
sembled to hear the addresses of for
mer Senator Joseph w Bailey. Han
his Taylor and others. All assailed
EnglEnd's rule of Ireland and de-
manded the question OF Irish inde-
pendence be considered in the making
OF peace.
It was the most enthusiastic meet
ing ever held in the interest OF Irish
freedom here and there was almost
constant applause as the speakers
extolled the virtues of Ireland and
her sons and daughters.
Resolutions Adopted.
At the conclusion of former Senator
Bailey's address Mr.. Downing offered
these resolutions:
I'VE, the citizens Of the United
States, kindred and friends OF the
Irish nation, assembled in our own
Capital, solemnly reaffirm our loyalty
10 the fundamental American princi-
I'le of uncoerced national sovereignty,
and resolve:
That we extend our congratulA-
The Washington times., 1919-03-18

tions TO the Irish people upon the re-
establishment of their national SOW
ereignty in the Irish republic;
Further. that we urge upon our
President at the peace conference to
champion the right Of the Irish peo-
PIE to take their ancient place OF
honor among the nations;
And we declare ourselves unable
to repose any confidence in the sin
Cerity in the effective operation OF
any league Of nations which would
impair the traditional principles and
the policies of this republic, or fails
tc secure to ireland at once the full
est independence and comradeship in
that league"
Condemns League Covenants.
p. T. Moran presided at the meeting
and made an address. extolling the
part played by Irish sons in the win
ring of the world war. Senator
Bailey followed with an eloquent ad-
dress, in which he condemned the
league of nations as it is at present
constituted and declared he is not for
sny pact which would recognize the
independence of Poland above the in
dependence of Ireland.
You may search all history-back
back TO the twilight oil myth anu
fable" said Mr.. Bailey, and you VIII
find no people who have been more
steadfast in their loyalty to the cause
of national freedom than the irish.
My answer to the o;ten-heaTd fallacy
that the Irish people are incapable Of
self government is that they have
shown themselves capable of govern
ing other coUntries-why not their
own"
Other speakers were: Hannis Iay-
Tor. former United States minister 10
Spain; p. J. Ryan, Washington attor-
ney, and Miss Katherine Hughes, OF
the Irish National Bureau. Miss AG-
mes Whelan, accompanied by Miss
Margaret Archer, and Ambrose DER
kin, sang Irish songs. Instrumental
music was furnished by the band
from the Naval Gun Factory.

had failed TO accomplish anything
worth while yet despite the weight

Whether Smith really deserved the

doubt Many rinEsiders dc Jared that
the big fellow had accomplished most
Of the DAMAGE done and should have

In explaining his verdict the
referee said that smith had won

forced willard 60 hold on repeat

There were many times during the
bout that Willard spurted for a few

knocked groEEy. But the big fellow
invariably stopped hitting in few
