S|NN FE|NERS ID HOLD PARLIAMENT
 OF IRISH REPUBLIC
Will Assemble in Dublin and Demand That Ireland's
 Case Be Heard at the Peace Conference
By Associated Press

Dublin. January 4-The Sim Feiners will assemble here, probably next week, for what they describe as the first parliament of the Irish republic" They will declare, it is asserted, that the re- cent elections show Ireland's self-de- termination as an independent republic and will demand that Ireland's case be heard at the peace conference. It had been supposed that the proceedings would be limited to this form of demonstration { but this weeks principal Sim Feinergan says:
 ''The national assembly can issue it's edicts and the people must obey them !" The belief is expressed here that al- though the holding of the assembly is considered illegal the government will not prohibit 1t and that not until it's activities lead to attempts to compel the people to obey its decrees will govern ment action be demanded It has been stated in the London press that the Sim Feiners had ordered certain breweries and other business firms to discontinue paying excise taxes to England. One of the big breweries, however, asserts that 1t has received no such order.
 It is said that the Sim Feiners will provoke and welcome constant conflicts with the government and endeavor to make the governments administration difficult. About 20 Sim Feiners elected to Parliament are still interned in English prisons charged with complicity in Ger man plots. The immediate agitation of the Sim Feiners is reported to be di- rected toward securing the release of these persons. Some of those arrested, including Count Plunkett, already have been liberated on the ground of poor health. The government is said to have decided to release all the interned men, but this report has not been confirmed. Meetings to urge the setting free of the Sim Feiners will be convened in all parts of Irehnd Sunday.
 During the elections the government suspended the regulation under the de fense of the realm act requiring permits for all meetings. Today it was an- nounced that the suspension would be continued so that all of next Sundays s meetings can be held without hindrance.

WAR DEVELOPS
 AUTO FIELD Their Part in Great Conflict Proves Their Utility
 Value.

''One short year of war has developed achievements in the retail automobile field equal to many years of normal progress. The part the motor car and motor truck played in the great war proved them the greatest public utilities of this age, and he who is responsible for their distribution consequently holds position of vital importance in this coun- try," writes c. A. Kissel, president Kissel Motor Car company.
 "Kissel dealers fully realize this new greater responsibility. They have full confidence, too, in their ability to mea- sure up to it and this confidence is strengthened by their faith in America and the future.
 Many years of normal progress were crowded into one year of war experi- ence and our organization is backing it's peace production on the greater scale that war experiences have brought about This greatly increased production will en- able Kissel dealers to meet the new re- responsibilities and greater demands that have come with peace.
 Progress in construction, too, has come with progress in, design. We will con- centrate on one passenger car chassis only-the result of the continuation of Il years of engineering achievements and innovation triumphs.
 ''We will incorporate in the new GUS tom-built six-peace-time efficiency, plus wartime economy-in two exclusive body designs, encompassing those unique and distinctive features that characterize the expensive custom built jobs. The new toruing car, mounted on the custom ilt chassis, with all the vital custim-built features will be sold at a popular price. Just what this price will be we cannot state at this time-''

The Largest Tree

The most remarkable tree in the world, perhaps, is the Banyan, of India. A tree of this species, on an island in the Ner- budda river, is believed to be the same one that is mentioned by Alexander the Great. The branches send down numer- ous aerial roots that grow down to the soil and form props or additional trunks, until single tree often covers so large an area that it will shelter thousands of men. At the time of Alex ander the Greats visit, one tree covered so extensive an area that it sheltered 10000 men. Under the protecting shade of these trees the Indian merchants still conduct their markets. The merchants are known as "banians,'' because they abstained from meat for many centuries, but modern customs have driven out many of the Hindus traditions.

Concerning the important Ques-

Everything which increases personal

ed as a factor in spreading influenza.
1T seems probable, however, that
we may expect at least local recur-
rences in the near future, with an
increase over the normal mortality
from pneumonia for perhaps several
years; and certainly we should be, as
far as possible, prepared to meet

BLUE DISCUSSES
~FLU" QUESTION
Surgeon General Believes, However.
That Disease Will Not b
So Severe

Washington, Sept. -3.-"Wilt :he
flu come back this year."
This question being asked by thou
sands OF scientists and millions OF
.aymen throughout the world IS dis
cussed by surgeon Genera Blue Of
the public health service in in Off
cial bulletin in which it is said that
the plague probably will reappear
but not as severe as last winter.
Probably, but by no means certain
iy, there will be a recurrence Of 5he
influenza epidemic this year" says
General Blue.
Indications are that snouiu Z oc-
cur, it will not be as severe as the
pandemic of the previous winter
City officials, State and city boards
OF health, should be prepared in the
event of a recurrence The fact that
4 previous attack brings immunity
in a certain percentage of cases,
should allay fear on the part of those
afflicted in the previous epidemic.
Influenza is spread by direct and
indirect contact. It is not yet certain
that the germ has been isolated, or
discovered, and as a consequence
here is yet no positive preventative
except the enforcement of rigid rules
of sanitation and the avoidance of
personal contact. A close relation
between the influenza pandemic and
the constantly increasing pneumonia
immortality rate prior to the fall Of
1919 is recognize. It ;snow believed
that the disease was probably widely
disseminated throughout the country
before it was recognized IN its cpl
demic state. This failure to recognize
the early cases appears to have
largely been due 20 the fact that
every interest was then centered on
the war
Not one Of the many experts OF
the service would make a more posi-
tive forecast. All agreed, however,
that a recurrence was not unlikely,
and in the face of the known fact,
that it would be wise to beprepared.
