Arctic Cold Misunderstood

There is a great deal Of misunder-
standing relative to the cold of the
Arctic regions. The absence or pres
ence Of water and altitude are impor-
tant factors in determining tempera-
ture. AS the altitude increases going
North, the bite Of the weather Is less
ened so that there is little or no incon-
venience to be experienced from the
cold.

DE VALERA URGES
AMERICAS SUPPORT
Blames British Government
for MacSwiney's Death.

Special Despatch to THE NEW YosR HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau.
Washington, ID. C., Oct. e5.
A plea for Americas moral support
for the cause of Irish freedom was is
sued to-day BY canon de Valera. presi
dent of the so-called Irish Republic, in
his comments on the death of Terence
MacSwiney. Slr. DE Valera bitterly ac-
cuses the British OF denying Ireland the
right to liberty and OF perpetrating tor
lures on the Irish people. America, Mr.
De Valera said. is the only nation on
earth which can end these conditions
The principles that Lord Mayor Mac
Swiney, like his comrade Fitzgerald. has
given up his life to uphold-the prin-
ciples for which the remaining comrades
arc giving up their lives similarly in
British jalls---are the principles of the
American Declaration OF Independence
and President Wilson's war aims-the
inalienable right to liberty, the privilege
of men everywhere to choose their own
way of life and obedience" Mr.. De
Valera said. quoting President Wilson.
Like Patrick Henry and his comrades,
these Irish patriots were forced by the
tyranny that would deprive them of lib
erty to make death the alternative"
Mr.. De Valera then quoted utterances
of Gladstone and Lloyd George to sup
port his charge Of British atrocities in
Ireland. He declared that America saved
England when "England's back was TO
the WALL" and that England now flouts
the world. He quoted from recruiting
posters which. he said. were distributed
in Ireland. setting forth President Will
sons war aims for the freedom of sub
ject peoples.
Ireland is now the one last white ma
ton that is deprived of its liberty" Mr..
De Valera said. England asked Amer
ica's material aid. America gave IT, and
now because of that aid alone Britain is
strong. Ireland asks only America
moral support, and the fair minded. lib
erty loving people of the United States
who sent Their sons across the sea on a
crusade for right will. I trust. not deny
it,"
Mr. De Valera also gave out copy
of a cablegram addressed by him to Mrs.
MacSwiney, which said:
May the noble pride that such man
was your husband console you for your
loss and may the knowledge that your
sufferings and his have. touched the
hearts OF an apa thetic world and arouse
1t to a realization of the agonies that are
being endured for liberty's sake in Ire
land comfort you. At the shrine Of his
bier and the deathoed of his comrades
we pledge that whilst an Irish heart
beats we shall resist till the hands or
those who would rob our country OF its
independence shall fall nerveless or
