Washington, Dec. 12.-The claim of the Irish republic to recognition as an independent government was brought to congress again today and was de- bated in militant fashion through a tempestuous all-day session of the house committee on foreign affairs.
 A crowd damned the committee room and blocked adjoining corridors punctuated the proceedings with cheers and with hoots of disapproval as the opposing speakers presented their arguments, and many times threw the session into disorder by yelling gratuitous advice to the com mittee and witnesses. It included many leaders of the cause of Irish freedom in this country and manifest ed in many ways it's sympathy with the plea! for recognition.
 The occasion was committee consid- eration of a bill by Representative l Mason, republican, Illinois, which would appropriate funds for dispatch lives to the government set up by the insurgent Irish republicans. It's sup
 porters declar it presented an oppor- tunity for congress to do all it could constitutionally toward a full diplo- nlatic recognition and it's opponents | condemned it as an effort to involve 1 the United States in dangerous for
 eign situation.
 Late in the session charges of pro
 Germanism on the part of Irish repub- l lican leaders and some of their sup
 porters.. in this country threw tht meeting into a furore which the com
 mittee quieted with difficulty after tht
 chairman had warned against insults
 to any of the witnesses. Interruptions
 so prolonged the hearing that the com mittee's plan of concluding today wa!
 abandoned, and the arguments will b. resumed tomorrow.
 Justice Daniel F. Cohalan of tn New York state supreme. court, an' Frank P. Walsh, who headed the Irish American delegation sent to Pari | during the peace negotiations, appear
