sINN FEM PRISONS

Sim Fein prisoners in Dublin have
been released under an order of Oct
H. not as matter of policy to affect
opinion but in accordance with the
provisions of the Cat and Mouse Act
passed to deal in England with the
suifragettes. The prisoners were on
hunger strike and the authorities
had either to release them or LET
them die. The plan of forcible freed
ing was condemned by the medical
advisers of the government and was
abandoned.
The prisoners did not receive par.
dons. Their sentences were suspend.
ed. and when they have recovered
their health they can be rearrested
and made to serve the remainder of
their term.
The hunger strikes arose out of the
claim of the Sim Feiners that they
should be treated not a" criminals but
as political prisoners. This claim has
from time to time been conceded but
the application of the concession
leads to constant disputes. There is
a difference of opinion as to which
of the prisoners are political. The pri-
son authorities determine it by the
nature of the charge and the sentence
A man charged with aiming to set I'D
a Republic is political. If the, charge
is making speech melting to VOL
ence, the prisoner is allowed no re-
laXations.
The prisoners insist on being treat,
ed alike When this is refused they de
stroy the furniture in their cells and
endeavor to make government in the
prison impossible They are then
I-handcuffed and put in solitary con
iinement. Then they go on hunger
strike. A few days of this puts many
of them into a condition which neces.
states their removal to a hospital.
Release follows and they return their
homes where they are welcomed by
sympathetic crowds. and where they
generally continue the course of ac.
ticn which lead to their Imprisonment
When in due course they are rearrest-
ed they ae again the object of popular
demonstrations The whole process
goes on continuously.
The trouble of the administration
arises from the fact that the SYM
pathy Of the masses of the popula.
tion is with the prisoners.

ENFORCING THE TREATY

Frank Simonds declares that prcsi'
dent Wilson went to Europe and fool
ed out allies into believing that the
league was a popular peace proposal
in this country, that England and
France accepted the league on the
belief that this country favored it,
and that they would not have gone
for the league but for that belief.
Frank only got that out of his
mouth before French high officials
announced that they are going ahead
with the treaty including the league
as it is and enforce it. English high
officials say the same thing at the
same time.
Lord Robert Cecil said Tuesday in
the House Of Commons that the
English 'wanbed American coopera-
ton and leading" but If the United
States decides not to share in this
great international effort, we must
go on and the burden will be upon
us and the othcer great nations
Does this sound as if the English
or the French have in mind any sort
of REIMBURSEMENT of the principles
contained in the league? Here is one
more instance of where Simonds
knew TOO little about the real facts.
The president never went to Europe
to fool the English and the French
about American wishes for perman'
ent peace. The American people are
willing to subscribe to an honest,
sincere effort such as that contained
in the league, to eliminate war and
national strife. III the pTeSluchI o"iu
that in his open addresses, he told
the the truth
Now it is developing that the
French and the English are of the
same mind. They have adopted the
treaty and are going to put it into
force whether this country joins or
not. They did not have to be fooled
into believing the American people
were for the league They are enforc
ing the treaty without us and they
are doing so with a full knowledge
Of our real difficulties in adopting
the treaty

Paris. Feb. 17.-Premier Borden's
speech here last night in which he
criticised the delay in concentrating
peace while the troops are anxious to
return to their homes has made an
undoubted impression here.
The same view is said to be taken
by some Americans, while the British
are not indifferent to the demands of
their territorial contingents. which are
supported by the labor element of
England.
Stephen Pichon, in discussing obsta-
Giles to an immediate peace during a
talk with newspaper correspondents
today said there were many reasons
why the treaty could not be signed at
Cnce even tho the league of nations
project was out of the way. Many is

Among them is the dispositions of

made a careful study of the bill and
heartily endorsed it's provisions.
5 Doctor De Vilbiss was the last
speaker. She brought out the fact
that the bill places responsibility on
the shoulders of the woman as well as
the man; that the physician is forced
to report cases that come under his
notice just as officers are forced to re-
port other crimes; that witnesses who
make false statements about women
under the present law will be forced to
be more careful; and that the law will
have a generally good moral influence
by making it impossible for a young
man to learn that he can escape pun
ishmeut by lodging behind a woman's
skirts and can compel others to bear
his burdens.
A Little Inheritance Change.
1t also was brought out in the meet
the bill make little change in the pres
ent inheritance laws, as under the
paternity measure it would still be
possible for a father to disinherit a
child by the bill as he may do at pres
emit One of the inheritance features
provides that father may inherit
from an illegitimate child while he
cannot do so under the present laws,
it is said.
One of the most drastic features
about the bill is a provision that when
several men are suspected of being the
fatherfof a child and the court is I'M
able to determine which is really the
father, the court may compel all sus-
pected to contribute to the child's sup
port.

war expenses are expected to reach a
total of 1872, 900. 100000 francs with
resources to meet it of about 15S, 000,-

In additional to the 24,000,000,0 900
deficit, there are exceptional expenses,
including compensation to civilians for
war damage, which is placed in mod
crate estimates at ten billion francs,
which will make the total deficit fifty

expenses for 1920 will be 1880, 00O,-

budget can supply only 5000, 900. 900

equitably the burden which, it is con-

France than on the others.
