| RULES IRELAND,
SAYS GRIFFITH
Vice President of Republic
Delivers Violent Indictment
of Great Britain.
pROvOKEs OPEN REVOLT
By FLOYD AIACGRIFF.

Copyright, 1890, by international News
Service.)
LONDON, Feb. 1S.-Charging that
martial law virtually rules in ireland and
that for three years any one wearing a
British army uniform could shoot down
civilian IN Ireland without fear Of
punishment Arthur Griffith, founder of
the Sim Fein and vice president of the
Irish republic, today delivered the most
violent Indictment against British rule in
Ireland that had ever been made.
The chief points made by Mr.. Griffith
we're:
a. The policy Of Dublin castle is to
provoke Ireland to open rebellion so
thousands can be shot down.
% Any one wearing a British uni
form, constable or soldier, can, with
impunity shoot a civilian in Ireland
without fear of punishment.
%. To all intents and purposes Ire
land is under martial law.
a If Great Britain substituted civil
ian rule outrages would cease.
SO. Let England make peace with Ire
land and she need never fear an enemy
nation on her western flank.
20. Premier Lloyd Georges new pro-
posal for an Irish settlement will never
work"
ACTING PRESIDENT
OF IRISH REPUBLIC
Mr.. Griffith. is acting as president Of
the Irish republic while President De
Valera is in the United States. His in
terview in full follows:
"The policy Of Dublin castle 1.-THE seat
Of British authority in Ireland) today is
to provoke Ireland to open rebellion so
that thousands can be shot down. Only
two things prevent the military regime
from repeateing the Amritsar, India, IN

prime minister) drove thousands of Irish
out into the world, making the Irish
question an important one in Canada, the
United States and Australia.
IRELAND RULED
BY A CANARILLA.
Ireland is ruled by a Camarilla at
Dublin Castle headed by Sir. John Tay-
Tor, British agent provocateur, and his
associates. Lord French, the lord lieW-
tenant, and Ian MACPHERSON, chief Sec
rotary for Ireland, are dominated by
Sir John Taylor.
amy one wearing the British uni
form, constable or soldier, can, with i'm
punity shoot q civilian in Ireland with
no fear of punishment. This has been
the case for three years. Sixty three
persons have been so saltn. Verdicts of
wilfuI murder were returned against the
police and military, but they were never
signed by the prosecuting authorities.
Dublin Castle has ordered that prison
ers be shot in the event of any attempt
to rescue them. Two have been killed
in this manner
ITO all intents and purposes Ireland
Is under martial law. During 1919 there
is evidence to show that there were
1887 arrests, deportations, raids, court
martia1s and cases OF suppression
against 10 during 1917, when Lord
Wimborne was viceroy."
URGES WITHDRAWAL
OF BRITISH TROOPS.
Replying to a question as to what
would happen If Great Britain withdrew
the military and substituted civilian
rule Mr.. Griffith said:
"Outrages would cease and the republi-
can government would function better
than It does today.
1t is not the Sim Fem policy to play
the British game by force of arms or
yield TO the British policy for the ex'
patriation Of Irishmen. ~----.--

GOVERNMENT TO
PROSECUTE FRAUDS
Cases Ordered Against 324 Contractors
for Fraud In War Contracts
May Settle Some Cases.

WASHINGTON, Sept 3.-Prosecu-
tion of 1924 contractors, marking the
beginning of a move by the government
to clean up its war contract eontroyer-.
sizes. has been ordered by the. depart
ment of justice. The proceedings will.
include both criminal and civil action,
and involving millions of dollars, -
department officials said yesterday.
Practically all of the cases embraced
by the prosecution order were turned
over by the war department but there
were indications that similar eases
would be received from other govern
ment departments The shipping board
is understood to- be planning to request
criminal procedure in half dozen
eases in addition to those already in
the hands of the attorney general.
The contracts on which action will
be pressed were said to involve amounts
''ranging from few thousand to a
few million each They include agree
ments for the furnishing of supplies of
nearly every commodity which. the gov
eminent purchased for war purposes as
well as construction of camps, canton
ments and warehouses and other facil-
tiles for the training of the army.
Officials express the belief that, al
though the war department had failed
to reach an agreement, many of the
controversies would be settled out of
court.
With respect to a score or more of
the contract settlements in dispute,
there was the belief that honest mis-
takes had been made by the contrac-
tor or sub-contractor and that an in
vestigation of records would produce
| grounds on which adjustment of the
matters could be easily made. 1t was
said that in other eases, however
'splain fraud and conspiracy had been
proved so clearly that no other course
was open to the government excepting
| direct action looking to the Indictment
of the law violators
| Robert T. Scott, assistant to the at
| torney general, said it would, be tho
! policy Of the government not to dea
| leniently with the fraud cases. He ex
| planned, however. that contractors
against whom civil proceedings only
| would be instituted would be giver
every opportunity to straighten out
controversies before the matter was
thrown into litigation. The contract.
represent practically every section Of
the country and court action viii b,
| sought in local jurisdiction.

MODERN EGYPT ONCE LAKE
University Of Chicago Professor Tells
Of Conditions That Existed During
the Stone Age.

The Sahara desert was onoe well
watered and fertile. and hunters
from the Sahara plateau, moving
gradually down through a rift in
northeastern Africa, located where
Egypt now lies, according to DR..
James Henry Breasted, professor of
Egyptology and Oriental history,
University Of Chicago.
Doctor Breasted said that this all
happened about the time Of the
Stone age. Egypt was then one huge
lake, but it gradually drained out
into the Mediterranean, leaving the
Nile valley. Here the hunters were
afforded every natural resource and
founded "a civilization which out
stripped Europe. 1t was about 1000
10 5000 b. c. that Egypt had a
stable government controlling mil
lions Of souls.
The grain Of Egypt was 1000
years older than any found in Asia,
says Doctor Breasted, and cattle UNI
doubtedly had their origin in Africa.
The Stone age founders of Egypt
early developed from hunters To
farmers, and used the oldest metal
instruments made by human agency.
They evidently discovered the metal
there; and a system of writing was
evolved in Egypt thousands Of year,
before Christ.-Detroit News.
