the cessation of sinking of ships since
November last ana the suppression Of
the convoy system, together with the
greatly decreased shipment of war
material to Europe would suggest that
an increased amount of tonnage was
available for the revictually Of the
less fortunate among the allies, the
fact is that never have arrivals at
Italian ports been so dangerously low
as now.
In October last foreign ships on the
single voyage system for total of
] $4,000 tons We're assigned to Italy
in addition to her own tonnage. and
this had dwnded in March to about
one -half-to $1,000 tons. In October
of last year Italy was able to import
about 1900 GOO tons of material and
goods, and in February only so, 900.
Coal, together with wheat and
needs. Italy before the war used to
import about 100000 tons of coal
per month, but now when the require

redeemed territories added to the
kingdom and by the greater call of
industries connected with the recon-
struction- of the devastated regions,
only 425, 200 tons of coal reached
Italy during February, while the min

Probably the most elaborate ana
successful social function ever held
at the Albuquerque business College
was the party in honor of s.. Pat
rick's day last Monday evening. A
brief but interesting program started
at o'clock and seemed 10 delight
the audience which at that hour
packed the assembly room. This
program consisted OF music and read
ings by various members of the
school supplemented by d most de-
lightful local sketch based upon the
Celtic names prominent in Albuquer-
que, written by Mrs Anna Wilds
Strumqust and rendered by her in
her usual inimtable manner. Her
skit so pleased the audience that she
was compelled to respond with an en-
core which was also most appropri-
ate to st. Patrick's day.
Other features of the program We're
the very amusing stunts" by groups
of students representing various sec
tions of the country One of these by
the New Mexico contingent was sqe-
cially representative of early life in
New Mexico. 1t was designed and
conducted by Miss Helen Lindsey ana
was most amusing. The western sec
ton. under the management of Miss
Goodell presented two stunts" one
consisting of a very graceful Irish
song and dance in appropriate cos
tpp1e and tho other of an oXhibitiOn
of very wonderful musical machine
called the hairmonyaphone, A de-
lightful patriotic reading by Miss
Helen Mahoney was also very well
received by the audience.
At the conclusion of the program,
two of the rooms were cleared for
dancing and excellent music was fur
nished by the Rlueher orchestra. ono
room was adequately equipped with
tables and cards for those who pre-
ferred this quicter form Of enjoy
ment and the company proceeded -
enjoy themselves until the wee sma'
hours. In the course of the evening
delicious refreshments consisting of
ice cream. cake and punch were
served and all of the two hundred
people present voted that they had
had one of the most delightful parties
that they had ever experienced. Men

decorations which were especially APP
propriate to the occasion. The great
success of this was due very largely

IRISH MUST CAIN
LIBERTY NOW SAYS
HORACE PLUNKE:T
War Should Bring Peace to
World and There Con Be No
Peace Until Ireland Is Free,
Is Warning Issued,


New York, March 22.-The time is
ripe to solve the problem of self-gov-
eminent for Ireland and it must be
settled lin Ireland and nowhere else, -
in the opinion of Sir Horace Plunkett,
who departed today for the British
Isles after seven weeks in this coun-
try devoted largely to studying Ameri-
can sentiment regarding the age-long
issue of his native land.
The war should have brought,
peace must bring, an Irish settle
ment." he declared. Announcing his
opposition to any plan involving par
tition of Ireland, (which from time to
time finds favor at Westminster" Sir
Horace said he found American opin"
ion, quite definite" in this regard,
adding that division of the island
would no more satisfy the American
public than it would be tolerated by
the sentiment of Ireland" He re-
ported Americans united as never
before in the forty years l have been
coming to this country in n desire to
see full justice done to the national
aspirations of Ireland"
If it is not eliminated, the Irish diff
ficulty, Sir Horace asserted, would
continue to disturb domestic politics
in the United States, raining false is
sues and threatening to become a Sc
rious embarrassment in your foreign
policy Whatever President Wilson
might or. might not "see fit to do or
say in Paris" the Irish statesman de-
clared, "the moral sense of the Amer
lean people, in desiring self-determi-
nation for the Irish, ''must be salts
fiod."

TO FUMIGATE
WILLIAMS SCHOOL

The health officials have ordered
the Williams Grammar school closed
prior to fumigation of the entire
building. Superintendent. of Schools
H. II. Stuart stated that no new cases
Of sickness have been reported and
the fuEigation will be made as n
precautionary measure. 4 plausible
reason for the recent illnesses Of tie
children has been advanced by a
teacher in one of the schools, who
thinks that the penny balloons. one
of which each cid generally has. may
have caused many OF the sicknesses
These balloons vary in shape and
color and last but short while from
the constant blowins-up The teach
CT states that she has watched a
scramble among the children for
pieces Of a balloon which had hurs.
and each child had invariably put
the piece to his or her mouth trying
to blow it into a small bubble. 1t
will be seen at once that this prac-
tice is sure vehicle for carrying
diseases. The suggestion is vel,
worth consideration.
