The Tribune Fresh Air Fund
Breaking the Grip Of the Tenements

Here's fresh air story with a moral
written by a fresh air boy himself:
"May 6, 1920.
Mrs. j. Murtaugh: guess you will
be surprised to receive a letter from
someone whom you most likely have
forgotten and whom you don't know
from Adam. take the liberty to write
you and ask how you are feeling and
wishing that the good times l once
had at Oxford could be lived over.
Many times since I have dreamed
of some day visiting the only country
that I've ever liked. My most cher
lshed hope is that some day shall be
able to own a nice old-fashioned cot
tage in Oxford and live the life of a
true American on the land that God
made for us. As each summer comes
and goes my heart yearns for the
happy days I spent at Oxford. If l
made wish now as to what | would
want most | can tell you l wouldn't
hesitate as to what it would be.
Il can picture to myself all the
places surrounding the house and barns
where we used to play. Many times
We 1elt down hearted but when I think
OF old times my sorrows all end.
Il am enclosing money and stamps
for which | want you to please send
me the last paper published (when this
reaches you) in Oxford. l want to read
ABOUT the people who once treated me
SO royalty. Never will | forget how
you gave me my dinner when 7 didn't
expect any. have some hope of coming
out to Oxford some time this summer
Hoping to hear from you soon. am
"A friend, WILLIAM OKRGNT."
The tenement problem! More has
probably been written about it and the
possibilities of solvin: it, than con-
cerning any other single problem con-
fronting the citizens of New York
Perhaps it will never be solved entire
ly, Doubtless there is no single great
cure-all for all the ills of tenement
congestion.
But, as the writer of the letter shows.
The Tribune Fresh Air Fund is nib
bling Jotfre- like at the outworks Of
the problem.
Why do people live in tenements :?
Some, of course, because of poverty:
some because they like crowds and
tumult; some because they've never
realized the contrast between their
tenement homes and the homes or
other people. Not all tenement dwell
ters hate the tenements-thcy don't
know enough about the modes of life
IN other places to do so. This is
especially true of children born and
reared in tenements.
But here's lad who got the con-
trast vlvldly through fresh air vaca-
ton. '"'H-

some day | shall be able to own a nice

The conductor was cheered for sew

address.
Ambassador Davis said that the or
chestra's visit had been the occasion of
satisfaction on the part of every Amer

harmony was the symbol of that which

proposed the health Of the Lord Mayor

long hind legs and feet, long tail, and

MURDER GANG" IN
IRELAND CONDEMNED

| Carnarvon, Wales,g Oct. 9.-Premier
Lloyd George in a fighting speech to
his Welsh constituents today, which
was intended for the world at large,
declared that the government intend
ed to restore order in Ireland by
"methods however stern," and pro-
ceeded with it's home rule bill.
The prime minister turned down do
minion home rule, protesting against
the suggestions that the government
should go farther than did Gladstone
or Asquith," not because Ireland needs
it, not because it is fair to the United
Kingdom, but because crime has been
successful"
A republic, he insisted, would not
satisfy Irishmen as "Ulster would,
have something to say to that"
Nothing which has happened in the
past, continued the premier, Would
justify the present conditions in Ire
land and after giving figures on the
number of police killed, he said:
"The police have endured this state
Of things in way which is the
highest testimony to their discipline
and sclf-restraint. There is no doubt
that at last their patience has given
way and there has been some severe
hitting back"
Real Murder Gang"
The premier declared that "a real
murder gang" is dominating Ireland,
making it impossible for reasonable
men to come together to consider the
best way to govern the country. ut
scssential," he went on, "in the in
tcrest of Ireland that the gang should
be broken up and unless I am mis-
taken we shall do it. But side by side
with that we must proceed with the
measure of government in Ire
land"
In speaking of the reprisals, Mr..
Lloyd George argued that the police
would not bomb houses and shoot men
If there was no provocation. Police
men to the number of 238 had been
shot, he declared, and of these 100
had been shot dead. This had tried
the patience of the police to the break
ing point.
AS for self-governmcnt for Ireland,
the premier explained that if COM
plete dominion home rule were ac-
corded, Ireland could have conscrip-
ton. In that case, he pointed out,
England's army of 100000 men might
be confronted with an Irish army of
500, 900. Conscription for England, he
said, must necessarily follow dominion
home rule in Ireland. Mr.. Lloyd
George said he could understand and

No one wanted to manage Ireland's
domestic affairs, he said, but danger
Gus weapons like armies and navies
were better under the control of the,

The present home rule bill, he de-
