officials of the Red Cross spent
most of yesterday and last night
at work upon their answer. The
greatest secrecy surrounded the
character Of the reply, but the fact
that an answer is to be made In
dicates a departure from the atti-
. tude assumed Hitherto by the Amer
lean relief organization that II
could not interfere in the situation
that exists between Great Britain
and ireland.
A number of appeals have been
made for the dispatch Of Red Cross
workers and supplies. for the most
part by partisans of the Irish repub-
lican movement in the United States,
who have insisted that since a
state of war" existed between
Great Britain and Ireland it was
the duty of the United States to ex-
tend aid to the victims of the con
flict"
With one exception the Red Cross
has refused to take official cos
nizance of the matter and on that
occasion the statement was made
that II would be outside the prov
incc OF the relief organization to go
into Ireland unless such an invita-
ton came from the British govern
ment.
1t has been understood 10 Wash

without the consent of the State
