new MILITARY
BOSS OF IRELAND
Macready Both Feared
and Respected by Peo-
pie of Emerald Isle.
STOPPED MANY RIOTS.
Has a Way About Him That
Appeals to Ideals of the
Mercurial Race.
BY r. y. BLUM ENFIELD.

LONDON. May l.-General Sir
Nevil Macready, the new military
ruler OF Ireland. Is man with a
purpose. That purpose is TO have
lis own way. He gets It. His ca
reer is dotted with incidents in
which his firmuess, his inflexibility
and his dominating spirit have tri-
umphed over obstacles.
When, as colonel, he went down
20 Tonypandy and soothed the raging
hearts of the striking miners, thpy
found him "A genial. kindly easy
spoken man with a vocabulary that
they understood and liked Also
;hoy found that here was no mere
military dandy who had come down
20 plead with them In dulcet tones
Ihey found instead that behind his
Smlablc talk was "A determination 10
put an end to strife, and that he
would not hesitate TO use all the
powers at his command to end IT,
And ho did. Wherefore he became
known as "the strike bseaker Of
Tonypandy," with this strange fact
added thereto, that the men who
had rioted bore the riot-smasher no
ili-will, but rather respected him.
For instance. one OF the leaders
came to him and warned him that
the men were armed with revolvers.
THANK God for that replied Sir
NeviL 81 don't understand you,"
said the leader. Come around with
your people and I will explain" was
the answer. SO some of the men
came around and Sir Nevil explained.
ou said your men were ar med and
I said Thank God" / am a soldier,
not a strike breaker. and ! want to
get back TO my Job. The quickest
way will be for some of you to be
shot. and | don't like shooting un-
armed men" So there was no fur
therNroubie.
Then. having made a success OF
that they sent him to Liverpool to
90 IL again; which he did.
When Ulster was upside down
Macready. now a general, went over
to take charge OF the affected dis
trict disguised as resident magis-
that, they sent him TO Liverpool to
he did not seem to care, and went on
employing the iron hand in the vel
vet glove, talking peace and smooth
ing ruffled feelings. which was no
easy task after the so-called pogrom
attempt, the effect of which he was
required TO dissipate.
At general headquarters in France,
where Sir Nevil was adJutant-geneal
70 n while, he showed again that he
regarded his duty as being far more
important than personal considera-
tions. On one particular occasion he
did not hesitate 10 arrest n minister
for being in the lines without the
necessary pass
The first police strike. which came
like an avalanche on the devoted
head of Sir Edward Henry. gave Sir
Nevil his chance once again. He be-
came chief commissioner Of police,
tackled the hornets nest and came
out on the top. The police now be-
lieve in him.
He is tall. grave-looking man In

cellont record OF a public market
which was maintained for six
months period last year. The pub

change place for farm and garden
products. Tho value OF commodi-

agent OF the United States depart

sl,000,000. In August 1919, alone.
S292,000 worth OF food was sold at
prices under the current list which
