 ''In about three or four weeks time -certain1y within two months-you will have a published audited account of the moneys which were raised here in America by Irish bond drive, close to $5,000,00o.
 ''One thing wek now is that the country that has tried unsuccessfu lily to fright ten us for 750 years isn't going to succeed now. They hope that when the Irish people are suffi- ciently frightened by these atrocities they will be willing to sign away their own bfrthrightst e may be imprisoned but we will never sign our own sentences. They may take away the leaders for the moment but Ireland has always been able to pro- duce them when she wanted them."

Penrose to Fight
Tariff Measure
Chairman Of Finance Commit
tee Will Return to Wash
ington This Week.

Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire,
Washington, Dec. Ex-senator
Penrose, chairman of the finance
committee, has notified his col
leagues that he will return to
Washington next week to confer re-
garding the emergency agricultural
tariff bill which passed the house
last week under the impetus of de-
nlands of the farmers Tor protection
against falling prices.
Senator Penrose's sudden deter
mination to come to Washington is
regarded as a certain indication that
he is opposed to this emergency tar
if legislation, and it is regarded as
certain that he is leaving his recu-
peration headquarters at Atlantic
City to do what he can to prevent the
passage of the Fordney bill by the
senate.
Friends of Senator Penrose say
that he is opposed to the republican
party entering upon what he terms
an emotional career" to remedy
every little economic i'll that devel-
ops in the readjustnent period by
emergency legislation. Mr.. Pen
rose, it is said, is against any tariff
legislation that does not take into
consideration the actual difference
between the cost of production at
home and abroad. The emergency
bill, in his opinion, is not a tariff
bill, and because its duties are so
high, it will result in retaliation.
Senator Penrose says that this is
not a tariff bill, but an embargo
masquerading under the name of
high tariff" said one of his friends
here today. "The duties are so high
as to prevent imports. Senator
Penrose believes, that vt will. result
in retaliation by other countries and
that the effect on the home situation
will be to depress prices beyond a
normal reduction"

ut is not for the restoration OF
the weapons of war or any of the
insignia Of military power" said
Mrs. LaFonette, that the women OF
Germany are appealing to the mercy
Of the allies. No, they are only
asking that their mich cows on which
they. depend to save the lives OF
their starving children be not taken
from them.
"And in this heartrending ap.
peal, they have the sympathy of the
sisterhood of the world. Theirs is
the elemental cry that moves women
to action. We women want the
starving fed, the blockades lifted
trade restored, friendship renewed
mutual forgiveness, peace and good
will on earth again"
Against Militarism.
Mrs. LaFollette declared that the
women would vote to defeat senators
and congressman who stand "for
war and riilitarism."
"We women have the power" she
said. "On the issue of militarism we
hold the balance of power. We have
the ballot. We propose to be practi-
cal. We are going to watch con-
gress.
"And here on this day, precious
to the hearts of the Christian world
at the very door of the capitol of our
beloved nation, we vow to use our
vote to defeat senators and repre-.
sentatives in congress who stand for
war and militarism and to elect SEN
ators and representatives who stand
for peace and disarmament"
