RECOGNITION
IS DEMANDED
FOR IRELAND
Colby Hears Committee
Seeking American
Acknowledgment.

Washington, Oct. 27.-Arguments ia
voring recognition Of the new republic
of Ireland were formally presented to
Secretary Colby at the state department
Wednesday night BY a delegation Of Irish
sympathizers, headed by Franl: F. Walsh,
former joint chairman with William
Howard Taft, of the war labor board
Secretary Colby listened without COM
ment but cautioned the chairman when
reference was made to Eamonn de Va
lera as "president" OF Ireland that as
secretary Of state he could hear them
only on the understanding that they
were there as American citizens and not
as representatives of officials of the
Irish people
I'VE demand recognition. not as a ia
vor,' Mr. Walsh said, but as a right.
The Irish republic is now established as
d'jure and de facto government Its
stability and representative character
are attested by the Endorsement Of the
ballots Of ninety per cent Of the Irish
people"
Mr. Colby told the committee he would
study the stenographic report that was
taken.

the caricature in the current number of

ferred to it in speeches.
Mr.. Hays, in his statement, said:
The cartoon was sent to number
of newspapers early in October by the
Albert T. Reid cartoon syndicate, which
furnishes cartoons to newspapers for

directors of corporations by an official
of the Republican national committee,

Cox's charge that Republicans would
sell out to the corporations Mr.
Whites statement follows:
"a circular letter sent to directors of
corporations by Charles B. Warren,
chairman Of the ways and means com
mittee of the Republican national com
mittee, has come to my attention. The
contents Of this letter will convince all
who have any remaining doubt chat the
Republican national committee is pre-
pared to sell out the United States of
America to the corporations if Senator
Harding is elected. This is grave
charge, but it is borne out by the con
tents of Mr. Warren's letter.
Under date of October 90 1920, in
addressing directors of corporations, he
writes:
"Will you, therefore. determine
promptly what the value Of Republican
success means to you and your corpor-
ate interests? Make your financial
pledge accordingly and mail the enclosed
card with remittance to the Detroit Of

THE signature Of Mr.. Warren is not
only printed on this letter, but it is
signed in ink over the printed name. The
letter is written on the stationery of the
Republican Ways and Means committee
which bears the names of the committee
officials also.
"No more sordd document nor one
more corroborative Of Governor Cox s
trying to buy an underhold in the gov
ernment has come to light in this cam
paign.
There is another phase of Mr. War
ren's letter bearing out the Democratic
charge of millions to be employed in an
endcavor to elect Senator Harding. Re
member, it is dated October 20, 1920,
two days after the national committee
reported an expenditure Of over $1,000

The question of moral obligation
was asked by a man in the Democratic
presidential candidates audience at Mid
dleton Without giving yes or no.
answer, Governor Cox declared that
there would be no legal obligation on
the United States, but the presumption
is, the conscience of the world will de-
termine some action which will not only
be right but which will be effective
He added that the Monroe doctrine
had been maintained without the firing
of a shot and that he favored Hitch

should be free to accept or reject lea

league questions.
The incident caused the governor to
relate other circumstances of the cam
