IRISH DIsPLEAsEDovER BILL
They Are Not Satisfied With Frame
Up Education Measure.

'
Dublin, December 17.-[By The
Associated Press. 1.-The govern
ment's. Irish education bill is criticiz-
ed here on the ground that the Irish
educational system should be framed
by an Irish parliament.
The home rule bill was expected
to grant separate treatment for us
ter, but the education bill is framed
on the assumption that Ireland is a
single unit. The education bill sets
UP only one central authority i'll
Dublin directly responsible to the
imperial parliament.
1t introduces for the first time into
the educational system Of Ireland 4
local school tax Hitherto all the
money has been found by the treas
ury, supplemented by voluntary sub
scriptions There will be popular
representation on the school board
but it's function is to be advisory,
and the power is all to rest with the
new education department. This will
consist OF the chief secretary and
the vice president of the department
of technical education both of whom
come into and 30 out of office with
the British ministry of the day, and
of permanent member who will be
the real administrator of the new
system.
Religious controversy is avoided by
the provision in the bill continuing
the existing plan by which the school
managers, mostly the clergy OF the
various denominations. appoint the
teachers ard control the schools.

Smuggling of Potatoes.
Smuggling Of potatoes is being car
ried on this winter in all parts Of
Germany on scale greater than in

This worked hardship on tire poor

Living appears to be cheaper in
Bavaria than elsewhere in Germany.
Butter has been selling there at five
marks pound. compared with thirty
marks in Berlin. Eggs are quoted at
twenty-five pfennines each while in
Berlin they cost 1.75 marks piece.
Eggs in the occupied area have been
bringing from two TO $50 marks each
this winter but are very scarce at
any price.
Meat In Bavaria.
Meat IS also reported as fairly
plentiful in Bavaria. although in all

they obtain this from Holland and
that this does not violate the food
