today concerning the situation in Ire
land: referred to reprisals; He ar,
bomb houses and shoot men without
provocation. The premier said that
239 policemen had been shot. OF whom
100 had been shot dead. and the pa
thence of the police had given way.
with the result that they hit back.
Mr.. Lloyd George declared that if,
as was contended. there was war in
Ireland. then the war must be waged
on; both sides. But when policemen
were shot in the back by Sim Fem
ers. the premier said. 1t was not war.
He asked whether. under the system
of.terrorism which made 1t impossible
TO obtain evidence, it was any Won
der the police shot the murderers.
I'VE must. however. restore order
in: Ireland, even by stern methods,
the premier asserted. because we
cannot permit the country to fall into
complete anarchy"
He said the murderous gang which
now tyrannixes Ireland must be broken
up and the government must proceed
with : measure for complete self-gov-
eminent of the country.
Referring to the killing Of policemen,

communicated to the press Of the United
States-and. believe, to the English
Aress-an interview the other day in
which he showed great concern At the
prospect Of what he thought was going
to be an attack upon his own life. do
not believe there Is any attack being
concerted against his life. but I never
saw a word from Arthur Griffith dis
playing any indignation at the killing
of policemen"
The premier said that II there was a
state of war in Ireland 1t would give the
soldiers and policemen a fair chance and
they would give a good account of them
selves. He demanded whether the po-
lice were to stand to be shot down like
dogs without any attempt to defend
themselves. and declared it was more
than human nature could tolerate.

viscount Grey Advises E
Giving Irish Free Hand
to Conduct Own Affairs

LONDON. October 8 tby the Asso-
ciated Press) Grey of Fal.
loden.:s former ambassador to the
United States, today published in the
Westminster Gazette another long
letter concerning his ideas for a So
luton OF the Irish situation. The let
ter was partly in answer to criticisms
by former Premier Asquith and Others
of his recent proposals and partly In
amplification OF them.
''The best / can suggest" saws Wis
count Grey. among other things. "is
to make it clear that the very start
ing point Of our policy is our con.
victton OF the incapacity of the Brit
Ism parliament to manage purely Irish
affairs. and our determinat ton to put
an end to this tragic failure. And 7
want to see it clear. beyond power Of
misconception. that within certain
limits. frankly and honestly stated
by US, Irtshmen are not only free to
arrange their own government. but
must do so.
Can Make Own Terms.
In no other way can I see how to
get the nationalists and the Ulster
men to realize that they must take
account of each others point of view
ana make concessions to each other
Protestant Ulster is quite strong
enough to make her own terms with
the rest of Ireland. but SO long as we
go on allowing it to be understood
that IL the protestant Ulstermen and
the rest Of Ireland do not agree we
will still be responsible for the in
ternal affairs of Ireland, they will
never agree and one or the other Of
them will block In London or defeat
in Ireland whatever scheme of Irish
home rule il initiated in the BRITISH
parliament.
The indi2crfminate and cruel re-
prisais, as well al the cruel murders
that provoke them. must be stopped. or
else the bitterness here and in Ireland
viii grow until any sentiment of recon-
Citation is impossible But when these
are stopped there will be still urgent
need for a new departure in the Irish
policy.
Real and Worst Pessimism.
1T was said that what 1 sugeested
the other day is the counsel of a pes
simist. The real and worst pessimism
is to hold that a majority of the Irish
men are absolutely unrea sonable and
irreconcilable and that there lis nothing
for IL but q settlement by war and
coafict.
Continuance Of the present state of
things may render the present situation
hopeless. and we shall be dsgraced il
We let the present state of things con-
tinue. But We have, ! hold, neither the
right nor the need to regard the whole
Political situation a. hopeless until We
have made . better effort at q settle
ment than the present policy Of the
gSNernmAnt"

Dr.. BaIIou Takes Steps to As
certain What Vacant Build
ings May Be Used.

First definite steps to ascertain what
temporary wartime structures in
Washington are available for the use
Of the public schools We're taken to-
day by DR.. Frank w. Ballou. SUPER
intendent of schools. It is planned to
use the vacant war buildings to re-
lieve temporarily the overcrowded
conditions in the schools
The superintendent sent a commu-
nication to the District Commi ssion-
ers inquiring as to what buildings are
available to be converted into schools.
DR.. Ballou Also requested the location
OF such buildings, if any, and whether
remodeling would be necessary
No Actual Plans to Convert.
No actual plans have been made by
school officials or District authorities
for converting any of the wartime
buildings into schoolhouses 1t was
pointed out that it is their intention
to learn if such a plan is feasible
during the present emergency.
Use of the abandoned Army camp in
East Potomac Park has been suggested
to school officials. This camp. officials
public school. 1t also was citd that the
buildings in the abandoned camp are
unsafe.
DR.. Ballou stated today that he is not
sufficiently acquainted with the city of
Washington to know the location of the
various temporary war buildings, or of
what use they could be to the schools.
His idea in communicating with the
Commissioners was primarily to obtain
this information.
Plan Up to Commissioners,
If the Commissioners ascertain that
any of the war buildings can be tempo
rarily pressed into use. and approve of
such plan. it is likely that school Off
Gals will take the necessary steps to
acquire them.
Acquisition of any of the war build
ings by the schools will entail a large
appropriation to equip and remodel
them into educational institutions. If
any of the buildings are obtained school
officials will ask Congress in an emerren-
cy appropriation bill for sufficient funds
for this work.
