O'C0NN0R BITTER
IN ASSA|[|NG IRISH
COERCION MEASURE
Head of United Irish League
Says 1t Grants Most
Despotic Power.

LONDON. August st. P. O'Con-
nor, president of the United Irish
League of Great Britain, bitterly de-
nounced the Irish coercion law passed
by the house of commons last week
in a statement to the Associated
Press last night.
The law. he said, was the worst
coercion act ever proposed In the
British parliament, and, indeed, with
out a precedent in the parliamentary
acts of any country in the history
of the modern world
ut gives the executive in Ireland.
he continued. "a power as great as
any czar ever claimed. 1t surrounds
the exercise of this power with I'M
penetrable secrecy. A man may De
tried for his life in secret, convicted
in secret, sentenced in secret ana
hanged in secret.
"Left to Executives WILL"
'It gives to the government the
right to make anything an ofense.
The refusal to work. to carry NUM-
tions, to hold meeting, to sing
song, to refuse to supply the pollce
with food-everything is lett 10 the
will of the executive.
1.-The government refused to accept
an amendment presented by llberals
and even by it's own supporters. !hiS
would have inserted a proviso wh,en a,1l
would prevent the creation of new
offenses The government replied that
it wanted carte blanche and that any
thing could be made an offenSe IN
Ireland, even though such action
would not be an offense in the crimi-
nal code of any land in the World
Finally, the government refused
every amendment to define the dura-
ton of the act-it is forever and ever
Mark the contrast: On Thursday
night. Premier Lloyd George post
poned real Irish liberty to an indeii,,
mite date; on Friday he gave Ireland
coercion for all time. This is a policy
which I have again and again de-
clared in the house of commons was
coupled with vacillation and divided
by Sir Edward Carson, the Ulster
leader, and the groveling servitude
of the premier to Sir Edward are
mainly responsible for the chaos and
anarchy which prevail in Ireland to-
day."
Chief Secretary Defends, Law.
Sir Hamar Greenwood, chief secre-
defended the law, declaring it's pur-
pose was to do justice in Ireland
The economic ruin of Ireland" he
said, "is threatened. because of the
political situation, unless the moder-
ate people of that country save it. I

without regard to creed, and members
of both the unionist and nationalist
parties, are endeavoring to organize
moderate opinion in Ireland.
The sole object of the legislation
is to give that disturbed country i'm
partially enforced laws. The courts
may be described as courts-martial,
with legal assessors.

security of the empire and, l believe,

will be published and used for propa-
ganda purposes.
In the second place the congress
ordered the establishment of a per-
manent bureau for the distribution of
fuel, minerals and other raw material
indispensable for the economic re-
construction of Europe. 1t believed
that the present misery was due
largely to the bad distribution of
coal. In carrying out it's work the
new bureau intends to collaborate
with the international labor bureau
established in Geneva by the league
of nations under the presidency Of
Albert Thomas.
Six-Hour Day Loses.
A German motion for the introduce
ton of the six-hour day in the mines
was rejected. NJ. Bartuel. French
delegate. said the congress should fix
the maximum. namely. eight hours,
and not the minimum of six hours
for the working day. Wages and
conditions of wages furnished ma
terial for long and excited debates.
Two significant points seem to stand
out as the result of this congress:
First. the surprising spirit of in
ternationalism as illustrated by the
cooperation of the French and Ger
man delegates; second. the confidence
shown in the league of nations labor
bureau.
Herr Hue, a German delegate, en-
phasized the fact that the German
miners are not seeking to dodge the
coal clauses of the Spa convention or
the stipulations of any other inter-
national treaty

CHICAGO. August (speciaD.-
After being trampled by crowds Of
Americans. Britons and French, the
Fairbanks, Doug and Mary. reached
Chicago on their return trip to Los
Angeles. The honeymooners greeted a
throng of curious Chicagoans with a
tired and bored expression. Doug ac-
tually, frowned on photographers:
I'VE have had enough of lodging
crowds in London and Paris, said
Mary. 'but this is worse. There was
only one place we visited where we were
able to get about without a crowd
at our heels. That was in Italy in the
Lake Como region. We were able to
be alone there and go about without
being recognized. We were very, very
happy there"
What did Mary think Of Parisienne
styles?
"Scandalous." she replied. why,
those Paris women simply have no
taste at all in dress. They wear their
skirts so-well, they all have SUM-
burnt knees, and their evening cos
tunes simply beggar description"

S|NN FE|N LEADER
KEEPS OUT OF SIGHT
Griffith Unassuming, But One
of Hardest Men in Ire
land to Find.

DUBLIN. August 9.-Arthur Grif-
fifth. editor of Young ireland and the
political head Of Sim Fein, is said
to be one Of the most isolated and
inaccessible men in Ireland. The few
visitors daily received by him say
they are impressed by the unpre-
tentiousness of his surroundings. He
is as difficult to see. they say, as any
big American political leader.
No person not known to Griffith
may visit him in his office without
previous arrangements made by
some one high in the confidence of
Sim Fein. The situation is much the
same as a stranger attempting an in
terview with a cabinet officer at
Washington.
Relieved that the irksome pre-
liminaries have ended. the stranger
is taken down a side street, ushered
into an unimposing doorway and led
up two flights of narrow, unpainted
door the stranger is confronted with
| a pineboard partition with one small
door through which he is taken. He
passes through a scene familiar in
uninviting room, where Griffith holds
! forth The furniture consists of
| table in the middle of the room and
| few chairs.
There is no necessity now. or has
! there been for many months, for
Griffith to surround his movements
| with secrecy. It has been stated that
| a warrant for his arrest is ready,
| but many leading Sim Feiners be-
! lieve government officials consider
| him a moderating influence and worth
more directing the party's activities
! than locked upon as a martyr in Jail.
| Griffith is as unassuming as his
surroundings are unpretentious. To
| one who does not express convictions
on the Irish question, and therefore
| does not have any. Griffith leaves out
standingly the impression that he has
| ceased to believe any English gov
| ernment in Ireland exists The one
| idea left is that the republican gov
ernment is ruling the country proper
ly, but having some difficulty with
an army Of occupation and num-
Der of policemen.
"Our volunteers are maintaining
| order where representatives of the
British government could not, our
courts are organized and respected
and other branches of our govern
| ment are working smoothly" said
Mr. Griffith to a correspondent.
| Griffith's sphere is only political,
| the planning and execution of force
| Of arms being under jurisdiction Of
| the volunteer army.
