''Made Safe for England

A thousand or more persons met at
the Amsterdam Opera House, Forty
fourth Street and Ninth Avenue, last
night ITO honor the Irish Republic and
TO express sympathy with the strug-
Cling people of Russia" Everything
that President Wilson and the "Big
Four" stand for was hissed, and eveyr-
thing that the Bolsheviki stand for was
cheered
When Peter Golden, secretary of the
Irish Progressive League, under whose
auspices the meeting was held, said
that if. there is bloodshed in Ireland
l hope shat most of it will be British
blood there was great cheering and
applause, but when some one in the
audience cried Wilson ought to be
impeached," the applause reached it's
greatest intensity.
Every reference made to President
Wilson. the league of nations, England,
the English navy and Allied troops in
Russia, including American soldiers,
was Kissed derisively. On the other

Berkman, Kate Richards O'Hare, the
Bolsheviki in soviet Russia and HIN

Ireland, Egypt. India and China were
greeted with applause and cheers.

The meeting was opened by Edward
+. Cassidy, who acted as chairman, and
who is prominent in local labor circl les.
He denounced the "Wall Street press"
and said that the Irish people "extend
the hand of sympathy to that outraged,
misrepresented, lied about people, the
great mass Of the honest people Of
Russia"
Leonora O'Reilly. president of the
Woman's Trade Union, declared, after
referring sneeringly to the phrase

anl also by telling them and the rest
of the seekers for cheap labor that we

workers. all over the world were going

She said that President Wilson and

Marry Weinberger, the attorney who
defended Emma Goldman and other

doubt the people of this country went
to war to make the world safe for de-

it looks as if the world is made safe
