PRESIDENT OF IRISH REPUBLIC
 AROUSES AMERICAN INTEREST
Sim Fein Leader Who Was Born in New York Has Natural Ability and Gift of Leadership That
 Recognized by Erin's Revolutionaries

work, and when charged with this additional offense went on a hunger strike until the charge against him was withdrawn. Next he was re- moved to Maidstone prison, where he associated with English convicts who had no interest in Ireland. He
 was not there long before the British government released about 2,O0O Irish prisoners and modified the conditions for the others, among whom was De Valera.
 He was taken to Lewes, but had
 not been there long before he or | ganiZed rebellion among the 125
 Irishmen who were also prisoners. As spokesman for them De Valera demanded that they be treated as 1 prisoners of war and not as felons, and when this was refused the pris- oners returned to their cells, wrecked what furniture there was and smashed the windows. This led to the men being split up again. They were put in the chain gangs and their former concessions were can celled. But again the British govern ment weakened in response to pres sure from some quarter, and the ! rebels were released. As De Valera left Pentonville he received a tele- gram urging him to run as Republi- can candidate for East Clare. He accepted and was elected with great majority. He then gave his 1 attention to organizing the Sim Fein party. It appears that among the Sim Feiners were those who, believ- ing in Irish independence, did not recommend rebellion, but adhered rather to peaceful propaganda. The others, the real Fenians, wanted bloody action in large and immedi- ate doses. De Valera was the only man in sight who had the respect of ell factions.
 His organizing ability was respon- sjble for the results of the last cleo ton when his followers elected sev enty-three members of the house of commons, although each Sim Fein candidate was pledged not to attend the accursed chamber Then was held that famous Irish parliament in Dub lin, whose proceedings were conduct. i ed haltingly in the Erse tongue, and which declared the independence of
 Ireland, and hailed De Valera as | president of the new republic In | May, 1918, the British government
 arrested and deported from Ireland | 100 male Sim Feiners, and three ! women and until the following March held them prisoners. Of course, De , Valera was among them. He was confined in Lincoln prison, which
 appears to have points of resemb- i lance to the Toronro jail, for De Valera escaped therefrom to Ireland. 1 He lay hidden, but whether the
 British police were really sincere in their efforts to recapture him is
 question. At any rate he was at
 large for some months, and then ap
 peared dramatically in the United
 States to float loan of $5,00O,000 for
 his republic. It is likly that he will
 do this if verybody who is willing
 to give him a cheer is willing to
 lend him a dollar.

URGENT NEED OF

(By Associated Press.)

New York, Feb. 20.--"Send ship
load of clothing to Serbia is the pleaS
of Madame Slavko Grouitch, wife Of
the minister to this country from the
new kingdom of Serbs, Croats and
Slovenes. who started today an or
ganized effort to obtain from the
American people the material des-
perately needed by Serbians.
Not only manufactured clothing but
cloth by the yard and especially foot
wear is desired, according to Nine.

Serbian Aid Fund Clothing commit

of collecting the clothing and which
has its headquarters at 338 Madison

Transportation to Serbia has been
arranged through TIE Washington le-
CATION of the new Jugo- Slav kingdom.
"In many Serbian families there is
but one wearable garment said Nine
Grouitch. During the war, Serbia
was so nearly inaccessible that relief
work was almost impossible. Since
Serbia is 96 per cent farming coun'
try, there was little merchandise in
the whole kingdom, and the first Aus
trian invasion of 1914 completely
devastated the richest quarter. In
successive invasions, all movable
goods-furniture clothing, plows, and
cattle-were stolen, so that upon
their return from exile, the Serbians
found their country stripped OF every
thing. In order to live, they must
work their farms. The men are max
ing rule implements and the women
trying to construct looms. But they
4 have no raw materials with which to
work, and unless clothing is sent In
! time for the planting season they can
not start their crops and will be faced
by famine.

women, worn out by the struggle fol
existence, are bent and aged. The

washington, Feb. 20.--A confiden-
tial report made to President VIII
son by Herbert C. Hoover six months
ago on the big meat packers has been
made public by the Food Admins
tration at the direction Of the Presi-
dent ito establish the real position OF
Mr.. Hoover and the Food Admins
tration on the control Of the Chicago
packing industries In recent hear
ings before Congressional committees
witnesses for the livestock men
charged collusicn between Mr.. Hoov
er and the five leading packers.
In the report, in response TO a re-
quest from the President for his
views on the recommendations Of the
Federal Trade Commission, Mr..
Hoover said he reaffirmed his opin'
ion given nearly a year before that
'there is growing and dangerous
domination of the nations foOdstuffs :"
and approved some of the commits
sion's proposals. He recommended
constructive regulation rather than
stretching temporary war powers o.
the government, and expressed the
belief that the domination of the
packers did not necessarily imply
wrong doing on their part, but was
the natural outgrowth of various fac
tors which need correction
Mr.. Hoover accepted as economic
ally sound the Federal Trade Com
missions recommendation regarding
Federal control of animal and refrig-
orator car service, and said stock
yards should be entirely disassociat-
ed from the control of the packers. y
He contended, however. that wrong
practices between buyers and sellers
would not be corrected by the gov
ernment controlling or owning yards.
His own instinct, Mr.. Hoover said
was against federal ownership of the
packers branch houses and cold stor
age and warehouse facilities. Going
into aspects of the packing industry
not covered by the Trade Commission
he said:
"If proper abbattoirs could be ex

Nish. Serbia, Feb. 1S.-Three
months of unremitting industry, un'
hampered by Bulgarian and Austrian
depredations or interference, have.
enabled the Serbian people to secure
new hold on life. With the coun-
try entirely free of invaders, the
large peasant population has succeed
ed in setting things in order in sur
.prising fashion, and conditions
should be almost normal soon.
Large quantities of wheat and Of
other staples, which the shrewd Ser
bian farmers hid from the enemy,
have reappeared. At the moment the
most pressing needs seem to be
clothing, shoes, fuel and agricultural
implements.
Apparently there is plenty of money
in the country, some of it having
come from Austrian and German sol
5iers, who, it may be said tc their
credit, paid for most of the articles
they took from the Serbians during
their occupation. However, the Bull
garians. who requisitioned almost ev-
erything they required from the al
ready straitened population, often
paid nothing for what they took. In
the cities most of the stores have no
stocks because they sold almost ev-
erything to the Austrians and Ger
mans.
Fortunately the harvest last fall
was exceptionally good and there
probably will be nothing approach
ing starvation among the poor this
winter. The enemy troops carried off
almost every article of value they
could lay hands on, but they did not
have time, owing to the suddenness
of their retreat to take with them
more than 25 per cent of the avail
able grain supply. Meat is abundant
though high in price, Before the war
it, sold for six cents a pound, now 1t
sells for 56 cents. Large numbers
of sheep raised in the mountains fur
nish not only valuable meat sup
ply but an abundance of wool which
have provided the peasants with the
only clothing they have had in four
years.
Serbia most vital need is for
clothing. Even welltuo-do persons
are shabbily or, at least, scantily
clad, The Associated Press corre-
spondent observed an army officer OF
high rank dressed in a skirt made OF
-four sacks, The little clothing that
may be bought is held at prohibitive
prices. The ordinary peasant work
ir gcostume costs $50, shoes $50, un-
derwear of poor quality $25, and
thread is priced at 50 a spool. A con.
signment Of old clothes from the But
falo, N. Y, Chapter of the American
Red Cross, valued at home at $7s. was
appraised at $500 by merchant in
the Pirot district where the Red Cross
is carrying on relief work. The Buf-
falo supplies we're distributed on

SERVANT PROBLEM In
ENGLAND CREATED BY THE
WOMEN ENTERING WAR WORK
(By Associated Press.)

10y AoouCiuCCu ! lCob'J
London, Feb. 2O.-ITime was wher.
Americans, harassed by the servant
problem, came to England to live.
Here they could keep house in peace
and sing the virtues of English do
mestics, making comparisons based
on experience in the United States
with servants of every race and col
or They declared that from house
keeper and cook-general to nurse and
between maid the English serving
women had no peers-they worked
harder, better, longer hours and with
more willingness and for less pay
than servants in any other part of
the world.
Now many of these Americans are
returning home. They have not modi-
fed their notions about English SER
wants, but they simply cannot hire
them any more. England as a re
suit of the war. is having her own
servant problem.
The trouble began when the serv
ant girls flocked into war work
Householders were greatly inconver-
fenced and large numbers closed up
their dwellings and moved into hotels
Others did their own work, expecting
the servants would return when the
war ended. But the fighting has been
over a long time now, scores Of mu
milton factories have closed, and still
the girls have not returned to their
old employment. Whether they ever
will return is favorite subject o.
gloomy speculation at many tea,
table.
OF the hundreds of thousands OF
servant girls that responded TO the
call for patriotic service. very few
according to employment agencies
are going back to domestic work.
For thirteen weeks they have the
S4.75 week provided by the gov
ernment until they find other employ
| ment, but unless the girls have homes
to go to, that is scarcely enough to
shelter and feed them.
Many with aptitude and skill will
I continue at factory work, taking the
places of men killed or crippled ir
the war. Thousands driven by rest
lessness will emigrate, it is believed
to America and to the dominions to
seek industrial employment not avail,
able to them here. Other thousands
will marry soldiers when the army is
demobilized.
The majority. however, in the opin
ion of employment agency officials
| will sooner or later have to return
| 10 d0mestlc service.
But. according to q woman spokes
man for the girls, it was the taste
of factory-life freedom even more
than novelty of high wages that is
the chief cause of their present dis
content. She cited as typical the
conditions under which chamber
maids in a big London hotel work.
"They receive" she said, Il;
shillings week for a working day
Of from Is to Is hours. Once weel
they are allowed off from 4 O'Clock
in the afternoon until 1890 at night
alternate Sundays from 3 p. m. unit
1890, and they are given full da!
off once a month"
Efforts are being made, 1t is said
to form q chambermaids' union fol
the purpose of securing shortei
hours, better food and working con
ditions and more pay.
