IRELAND'S OPPORTUNITY.

1t is true, as Lloyd George said in his
statement to De Valera proposing do
minion rule for Ireland, that there is
not a part of the world where Irishmen
have made their homes but suffers from
our ancient feuds. No part of it but
looks to this meeting between the British
government and the Irish leaders to re-
solve those feuds in a new understanding
honorable and satisfactory to all the peo-
pie involved"
In no country outside of Great Britain
has the quarrel made so much trouble
as in the United States. This alien is
sue has intruded in American life and
American politics. The bitterness here
has increased with the bitterness across
the sea, at the source of trouble. Both
sides have conducted their propaganda
here with growing vigor. The Irish Ma
tionalists particularly have insisted
that America take hand in the strug-
gle. through influence and financial sup
port and also through official govern
mental action. These facts surely JUS
tify America now in giving advice to the
ENiHu L tlI Win lVSatu " Inv PiCHVHt
British offer.
So far as American sentiment can be
judged from recent expressions, the ma
iority of Americans would be glad to see
Ireland accept Lloyd Georges proposals.
Those proposals contemplate for Ireland
as a whole, or for North and South Ire
land separately if they prefer, virtually
the same political status as that of Can
ada. Australia, South Africa and New
Zealand The only exceptions are based
on the fact that Ireland is linked to the
larger island so closely by nature that
certain precautions not insisted on with
regard to the others are held necessary
in her case. These involve British con.
troll of the sea for vital purposes OF
trade, communication and military pro
| lection. Britain also wants unrestricted
| commercial intercourse between the two
islands To most Americans these condi
tions seem reasonable, provided they
are carried out in the liberal spirit which
| Lloyd Georges offer seems to imply.
What is offered Ireland is far more
| than was ever offered before, and faI
more than the Irish Nationalists ever
| hoped to obtain, up to year or two ago
| De Valera, despite his formal refusal
| has wisely left the door open for further
exchanges. To stop such promising ne
gotiations at this stage would be a catas
| trophe.

Some of the American friends of the
Bolsheviki held a meeting in New York
city recently to discuss the feeding of
Russias hungry millions. They were
strong for hungry Russia getting the
food, but they denounced all plans which
leave the disbursement of food in any
hands except those of the Soviet leaders.
They declared that the attempt of the
outside powers to have a hand in run
ming the show was really an effort to put
a dividing wedge between the Soviet gov
eminent and the>people of Russia. Incl
dentally they declared that Communism
is NOT a failure. They were not infu-
encef in the least by ANYTHING so prosaic
as facts. In spite of all their flapdOOdle,
the feeding of Russia's starving popu-
lace will be done under such strict super
vision by the powers giving aid as to
insure that it is fairly and justly done.
