De Valera Audience i'm
Brooklyn Kisses League

Eamonn dc Valera. "President of the
irish Republic" addressed an audience
of $4,000 last night at meeting at the
18th Regiment Armory, Sumner and
Jefferson avenues, Brooklyn. The
meeting was held under the auspices
of the Friends of Irish Freedom.
President Wilson, Lloyd George and
Sir Edward Carson were cordially be-
laborcd by the speakers and hisscd by
the audience, but the real climax Of
disapproval came with the mention of
the league of nations. Neither speak
ers nor audience had the slightest use
for it. 1t was denounced as piece Of
deception which would make the United
States "merely II colony of England"
The Rev. Henry Grafton Mythen. a
Protestant Episcopal clergyman, pro-
sided at the meeting. Mayor Hylan
and Police Commissioner Enright were
present. Besides de Valera, the speak
ers were Frank P. Walsh, William f.

CORPUS CHRISTI, Tex, Sept. 49,
Rapid growth of the death list re-

nearby points Sunday caused tho belief
among the relief workers and local
officials tonight that the total dead
would approximate 500 persons.
Much of the shore line of Corpus
Christi and Nueces Bay has not been
penetrated by scarchers, while only a
small proportion OF the wreckage in
this city has been moved. This and
the continued absence of many persons

Dealers to Bear Beef Raise
Fair Price Mediator Will
Hear Wholesalers Appeal
at Meeting ThisAfternoon

The 5000 butchers and meat dealers
Of the City Of New York, through the
master retail butchers committee that
met in the Office of Arthur Williams,
Federal Food Administrator, yesterday,
have agreed to assist the authorities
here in disposing of tho 100000
pounds Of first grade poultry which the
War Department recently released.
Mr.. Williams called the meeting be-
cause OF the hesitancy shown by the
dealers to handle the government pred
uct, less than $4,000 pounds of the
fowl having been purchased by store
keepers within the last three days. Mr..
Williams presided at the meeting and
Charles Grismcr acted as chairman of
the butchers committee. August Sllz,
who is distributing the poultry for the
government at 4l6 West Fourteenth
Street, also was present.
Immediately following their decision,
Mr.. Williams announced that a drive
to dispose of the chickens will be
launched at once. All dealers, he de-
clared, arc requested to purchase at
least fifty pounds of the poultry, and
if possible to take $50 pounds, He
pointed out that if every dealer takes
$50 pounds, the whole 100000 Will
be placed. 1t is further suggested
by Mr.. Williams that the government
product be labelled as such by store
keepers. and be accompanied by q
guarantee as to quality.
To put an additional Sunch into the
drive, Mr.. Williams has set aside Mon
day and Thursday of next week as
"Chicken Days" in New York, and ap-
peals to the housewives of the city to
buy the government poultry and serve
ii at meals on those days. He him
self has set the example by instructing
that army fowl shnll be the order on
these davs in his own househ old.
Louis Beckman, vicc-chairman of the
butchers committee, asserted that the
butchers were unwilling at first to
take the government birds because OF
the great influx of cold storage chick
ems being unloaded here by the pack
ers and of the keen competition offered
by the freshly killed product He said
this competition has brought the price
Of chickens down 2i cents within the
last few months, going lower than the

matte Appeal to the Pop

ROME, Sept. 18 (By The Associated
Press. speaking in the Chamber Of
Deputies of the situation at Fiume
brought about by Gabrielle d'Annunzio's
raid, Premier Nitti promised that all
news concerning the Fiume develop
ments would be communicated to the
press. Nothing would be concealed, he
declared. At present, he said, there was
nothing to add to the previous COM
munications on the subject. The gov
ernment up to this time, he explained,
had confined itself to consulting vari-
Gus generals and others who had rem
dered valuable services to the army,
including General Diaz and the Duke
of Aosta. All of these regretted cx-
tremely what had happened, the Pre-
mler reported.
Radoglio to Have Full Power
The government, declared Signor
Nitti, would support General Badoglio,
who was on the scene, in dealing as he
believed best with the delicate task. It
was not yet the moment TO Judge Of
events. and perhaps the discussion of
them at the time was not without dan
ger, the Premier added. He appealed
to the army to maintain its discipline
and not to undo the work it had pre-
viously accomplished.
The Premier said:
"The governments of the Allies have
declared to us that they consider the
Fiume affair as an internal one fol
Italy 10 solve. There has been no pro
test from the Allies. This leaves us
free TO solve the incident
The situation at FiuInc on Wednes-
day was unchanged, according TO semi
official adyices- received day.
D'Annunzio's forces still were holding
the town. and General Badoglo, deputy
chief Of staff OF the Italian army, has
issued proclamation reminding tho
troops that the time limit for their re
turn to the arnistice zone would oX-

D'Annunzio, who Is reported to have

gesture. N the present mad, cowardly
world there is one pure thing-our
love for Fiume Fiume stands like a
lighthouse over the sea Of degrada-

firm your vote of October 80 last, when
you decided for annexation to Italy,"
Up from the crowd came tremendous
shout of "Yes."
D'Annunzio then unfurled the tri-
colorcd flag of Trieste, which he bore
with him throughout the war and
which was consecratcd in Rome, press
ing it to his lips while the people re-
spondcd with wild cheers.
D'Annunzio has a force Of more than
10000 men, which has occupied the
/ line separating Fiume from Jugo-Slav
territory. This tinc has been strongly
fortified. An immeera,e inventory Of
the contents Of warehouses was or
dered, and it was found there was a
lack of meat and vegetables, but great
sugar. which may afford eustenance
for the city. should it be blockaded.
Troops Given an Ovation

crowds, girls springing on the lorries
and on armored motor cars and dec

amid applause Nov Fiumo is def

DR.. Antonio Vic, Mayor Of Fiume
also greeted D'Annunzio. and warned
the people against "mischief Makers

the city remained in state Of fever

Son of D,AnnunSio Insists
His Father Is q ':Put7i0t''

Hugo d'Annunzio, son of Gabrielle
d'Annunzio, the Italian warrior, poet
and novelist, in an exclusive interview
with a representative of The Asso-
ciated Press here to-day, declared his
father WAS strong willed and intense
ly practical patriot, who undoubtedly
would Sacrifice" himself rather than
yield Fiumc to the Jugo- Slavs
"My father is in serious plight"

have waited so long for delivcrunce it
would break their hearts for him to
desert them now. am sorry am not
by his side, for am a good Italian and
sympathize with the cause he holds so
dear"
Tho son of the great Italian author,
who has bcen in business here about
six months, was at first reluctant to
express himself about his fathers cx-
that the elder d'AnnunziO "ncvcr had
any personal or political ambition"
and that his sole reason for declaring
the annexation Of Fiumc to Italy was to
satisfy the "scntmcntal" aspira tions
of the S6,000,000 people Of Italy.
Issue Declared Sentimental
"Opposition in the Italian press and
among some politicians against ener-
cetic action regarding Fiume is due to
the fear that the Allies in retaliation
may use economic pressure over Italy,"
he said. "ltaly needs coal and raw
materials, which she can only Get from
the Allies But Fiume is sentimental
question. 1t is not q commercial ques-
ton. In proof Of this it is only ncces-
sary to recall what efforts Italy has
made to placate and mollfy the Jugo-
Slavs.

the peace conference has not favored
