ONLY A sUBTERFuGE.

President Wilson has issued a
statement in the form of answers to
questions regarding the proposed
league of nations covenant and its
bearing upon ireland. 1t may be
taken for granted, hints the True
Voice, that this has been done only
because the President has sensed the
growing opposition to the covenant
because of Article X. This article
is the one that sets the seal of the
leagues approval on national
boundaries as at present constituted
and pledges the league to maintain
them against external aggression.
Mr.. Wilson now says that Ireland s
hope lies in Article XI of the cove
nant. which makes it allowable for
any nation in the league to call the
attention of any other nation to in
ternal affairs in that nation which
endanger the harmony of the league.
He believes that through this article
Ireland's case can be brought to the
notice of England by the United
States. and that thus it's wrongs
may be righted.
The obvious answer to this ex-
PLANTATION is that England's attention
has been drawn to Ireland's case
long ago. No nation knows the Irish
situation better than England. But
what has that availed for Ireland?
What would be accomplished for
Ireland by the United States draw
ing attention to a matter that is
already notorious. Would it bring
freedom to Ireland? No one who
knows anything about the situation
would believe it for a moment. Mr..
Wilson had an opportunity to bring
Ireland's case to the attention of
England in a way that it could not
be ignored. He had a chance to
make justice to Ireland a condition
of the peace treaty. He was already
pledged to that by his declaration
in favor of self-determination for all
peoples. He had the opportunity
but he failed miserably to take ad-
vantage of it when he could have ac-
complished something. Now he tells
Irish sympathizers in this country
to look at Article XXI of the cove
nant. That article is very good as
far as it goes. But it is powerless
to extort justice from the tyrant. If
Mr.. Wilson declined to bring to the
attention OF Lloyd George the case
Of Ireland when he might have had
some influence with the artfuI
ledger, can he blame the friends of
ireland for refusing to accept with
trusting faith his statement that
Article XI is the key to the situa-
ion? 1t is only a subterfuge.
friends of Ireland will refuse to be
by it.

DOING NOBLE WORK.

The entire community rejoices in
the recovery of Judge Harry w.
Robinson, of the Criminal Court,
who was shot by an attorney who
became involved in a shady legal
transaction. Judge Robinson is do
ing noble work in his court in the
handling of criminal cases, and in
the disposition of the many unfor-
tunate family troubles where an err
ring husband is forced by the court
to provide for the children. Every
citizen who visits this court, whether
by way of curiosity or necessity, be-
comes naturally an admirer of Judge
Robinson.

WHAT FLAG MEANS TO ELL
Days of Sacrifice and Devotion Have Made It Cause of Pride to
 Every American.

The flag means more to Americans in the year 1919 than it has ever meant in our lives. And why? Not, surely because it is more familiar Nor yet because it floats over hosts of soldiers and mighty fleets. There were soldiers and fleets before. Not, therefore, be- cause of its new part in the panopiy of war.
 It means more to us because we have put more into 1t. Because, after years of peace and plenty in which we thought of our flag chiefly as some thing to protect and guard us, we have in time of war and grief and hardship learned to know our flag as something for us to protect and guard and serve.
 A flag, in short, is as great as its people-and no greater. When they are great and generous and coura- geous, it is great and beautiful ana holy. When they falter and haggie, their flag is less than nothing to them, as to the world at large.
 Ours to love and cherish and die for in the greatest of causes! Therefore a source of pride and of deep emotion to every American. That is the lesson we are learning in these days of sacri- flee and devotion, when a flying bit of color becomes the most glorious and Joyous and sacred thing in the whole wide world.-New York Tribune.
