WASHINGTON. March 4.-The House

hope that the Peace Conference would
"favorably consider the claims OF Ire

When the House resolution was re-

consent for its immediate consideration.
Senator Smith (Ga). Democrat, OBJ
jected and demanded that the resolution
go TO the Foreign Affairs Committee,
where a similar resolution has been pend
ing for several months. The resolution
died In the Senate with the adjournment
OF Congress.
Adoption Of the resolution in the House
followed a turbulent all night session, in
which an organized effort was made to
keep the resolution from reaching a vote.
The attempt was abandoned just before

VIII be resented generally by English
men. Attention was drawn 70 the Irish
question to-day through the plan of
President Wilson to meet an Irish dele
cation in New York tonight and the
newspapers were not slow to comment
upon It. Typical of the comment of the
newspapers ia an article in the Globe,
as follows:
with great respect we venture to
hint that President Wilson ought to
find enough to do at home and not en-.
deavor to take a hand IN the manage
ment Of our affairs The arduous labor
of governing q0,00O.000 of people cannot
leave much leisure for the study OF such
highly complicated problem as the
relations between the component parts
of the British Isles.
President Wilson Is not personally
acquainted with the actual conditions in
Ireland and n would be better II he
assisted In the settlement of a difficult
question, such as that of Mexico. In his
own neighborhood before kindly helping
ours.
For q considerable time President
Wilson was content that sacrifices should
be made by this country to preserve
freedom and civilization for the whole
world. Eventually he committed his
country to share them. Presumably.
therefore. he is prepared to trust us not
to violate those principles in an In
tegral part or our own dominions.
NO one here desires to NEEDLE In the
Affairs OF the United States, but we
understand that there still are a few
Americans who cherish a notion of a
political reunion OF the republic and the
empire This dream Is as illusory as
the separation Of Ireland from England
or the division OF the United States into
several republics
I'VE do not think President Wilson
would be pleased II Premier Lloyd
George received delegation of those
peculiar Americans who advocate what
they call the return of the revolted
colonies. Not long ago a British Am
bassador at Washington was tricked
into expressing an opinion on the Ameri-
can Presidential election; his recall was
demanded by the United states promptly
and properly.
mo British statesman would dream
OF receiving a deputation of brewers and
distillers to urge upon him to maintain
at the Peace Conference the right OF the
individual American TO decide what he
shall drink. We venture to remind Mr.
Wilson that even the great position of
President does not carry with II that of
supreme governor OF the planet 1t will
be found on investigation that to attain
the fullest success II is safe to follow
the admirable rule of minding ones own
business"

PARIS, March 4.-The first actual

The claim was prepared carefully by
the State Department and rushed here

virtually the same as the value OF
German property seized In the United

It is unlikely that this will go TO sat

money. credits and property like that
in the United States probably will be
pooled and divided pro rata by the COM

Mr.. Carter, although nearly score
OF years passed mans allotted three

to boating and followed the sea on
many sailing vessels and later became

the schooner James T. Lay and went
to California during the gold rush and
became a member of the now famous

was made through the straits of Ma
gellan aIA up the Pacific coast Of
South America. Mr.. Carter remained

LIBERTY FUELS CHIEF
ELEMENT IN BENzOL

In regard to Liberty fuel. which has
been much exploited in the newspa-
pers am magazines, the fuel admin
istration states that the U. S. Army
laboratory tests show i to be about
Gj per cent benzol, 80 per cent. kero-
sene and the balance amyl acetate,
napthalene, alcohol and some undeter-
mined constituents. AS benzol is the
chief element the supply of Liberty
fuel must depend on the supply Of
benzol, of which the total available is
$500 barrels a day. Using all this,
which cannot be done, tho Liberty
fuel made would be about per cent.
OF the present gasoline output.
Tests OF Liberty fuel in various gov
