 The widow of the Cork mayor declared there was no choice for the Irish repuo- licans but to staSd together, whatever the cost, and continue the, fight for in- dependence She said it-wass such spirit that had actuated her husband to refuse food until death.
 Her husband exacted a promise from her, Mrs. MacSwiney said, that sh would not insist that he take food. The pris- on officials, however, said they would not employ forced feeding until the prisoner became conscious when they would give him food Accordingly, five days before the lord mayor died the prison authori-
 ties began feeding him, she asserted, and
 continued to do so until his death. Mrs
 MacSwiney gave a vivid recital of her
 experiences with the British officials and charged that the British home office had spread propaganda to the effect that rel

 IN FORMATIVE STAGE

London, Dec 9.-(By The A. p No program of capital ship construction for the navy will be presented to par liament until the whole question of na- val strength as effected by the latest developments in naval warfare has been exhaustively investigated by the committee on imperial defense and the results of such investigation have been considered. This announcement was made in the house of commons. tonight by J. Austen Chamberlain, chancellor of the ,exchequer.
 The government has decided. and the admiralty has welcomed the decision, : said MT. Chamberlain, that tn. corr mittee on imperial defense shall exhaus- lively Investigate the whole question of naval strength as affected by the lates- developments in naval warfare, and will present no program of capital ship construction to parliament until the re- suits 2f that inquiry have been consid- .~Chamberlain's announcement was the chief outcome of the set debate in the commons tonight, arising from an attack on the government expenditure as wasteful and from agitation raised by the opponents of a strong naval pol 1 icy in favor of a navl equal to the com l DlhCu 4ldNACo OL llc OullcQ 0L3L6S and | Japan.
 The chancellor explained that while the government was determined to main. | tain the navy at strength adequate to secure the safety of the empire and mar it1me communications, the cabinet, be. fore sanctioning new construction was
 bound to satisfy itself that the lesson,
 of the war had been definitely ascertain | ed.
