THE IRISH PROBLEM
BEFORE CONGRESS
CLAIM or IRISH REPUBLIC TO
RECOGNITION CAUSE OF Tenn
PEsTUoUs DEBATE.
Crowds Jam Corridors and Committee
Rooms and Punctuate Proceedings
With Cheers and Hoots as Speak
ers Present Arguments.

Washington The claim of the Irish
republic to recognition as an indepen-
dent nation was brought to congress
again on Friday and was debated in
militant fashion throughout tempes-
tuous all-day session of the house COM
mittee ON foreign affairs.
A crowd which jammed the commit
tee room and blocked adjoining corri-
doris punctuated the proceedings with
cheers and with boots of disapproval
as the opposing speakers presented
their arguments, and many times
threw the session into disorder by yell
ing gratuitous advice to the committee
and witnesses. 1t included many lead
ers of the cause of Irish freedom in
this country and manifested in many
ways its sympathy with the plea for
recognition.
The occasion was committee consid-
Grafton of a bill by Representative
Mason, Republican, Illinois, which
would appropriate funds for dispatch
of diplomatic and consular representa-
lives III Tie oVI up ~ hAhN
insurgent Irish republicans. Its sup
porters declared it presented an oppor-
tunity for congress to do all it could
constitutionally toward full diplo-
matte recognition, and its opponents
condemned 1t as an effort to involve
the United States in dangerous for
eign situation.
Late in the session charges of pro-
Germanism on the part of the Irish
republican leaders and some of their
supporters in this country threw the
meeting into furore, which the COM
mittee quieted with difficulty after the
chairman had warned against insults
to any of the witnesses.
Justice Daniel f. Conalan of the
New York state supreme court and
Frank p. Walsh, who headed the Irish
American delegation sent to Paris dur
ing the peace negotiations, appeared to
espouse the cause of Irish freedom and
ask for passage of the bill. The ar
guments in opposition were made by
George L. Fox of New Haven, Conn.
George I. Lemon of Troy, N. Y,
president of the National Federation
of Presbyterian Patriotic Societies,
and others.
