England Accused
OF Stirring Irish is
Religious Strife
Protestant Woman Charges
Military Attacks Against
Catholics Increase; Says
Fight Is Made on Industry

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-England is
fostering religious intolerance and
suppressing industry in Ireland in an
effort % prevent self-determination
Miss Louie Bennett, Protestant woman
from Dublin, to-day told the commits
sion of the Committee Of One Hun
dred Investigating conditions in Ireland.
Attacks by the British military on
Catholic churches and on nuns and
priests are increasing, Miss Bennett
said, with the intention Of reviving the
spirit Of religious intolerance as be-
tween Catholic and Protestant, with
from uniting.
In discussing her charges of the sup
preston of industry, which, she as
serted, involves the question Of the
satisfactory solution Of internal prob
lens, the witness described the de-
structian of creameries and other CO.
operative industry. at was ridicu-
lously foolish policy" she said, (which
permitted the destruction of an in
dustry that could sell butter cheaply
to the English people, who now are
forced to pay exorbitant prices"
Testimony in support Of Miss Ben
Caroline M. 'Townshend. Both are
members Of the Irish .Womens Inter
national League, and they presented
letters and documents to support their
charges. Some of the letters, Miss
Bennett said, were from business men
of Belfast, in Ulster, and she added
that their .-lives would be in danger
should their names be published in
this connection. y
Miss Bennett told. of two recent
alleged forcible entrances into Dublin
nunneries, one of which was, of an ex-
elusive Catholic order which barred
even relatives of the nuns from visit
ing the building, allowing communica-
tion only through iron barred doors.
She described the functioning of the
Sim Feina governments and declared
that the success with, which the pro-
visional Irish republic, through its
land courts, met the crisis from cattle
driving, in which peasants drove herds
from pastures and seized the lands,
proved that the Irish people could
settle their own internal problems more
successfully than outside authority.
The land problem, which was in
volved in the cattle driving, had never
been met by the English authorities in
spite of years of "bungling over it,"
the witness said, but without On actual
code Of laws and unrecegnized by Eng
land, the Sim Feinn government met
the crisis through its land courts.
Practically all parties accepted the de-
cisions of the courts, she said. Those
who did not were tried and sent to an
unknown destinations

Germany Awaits
Reds Amends for
Murder of Envoy
Simons Explains Attitude
Toward Russia; Does Not
Believe Grant to American
Will Be Realized Entirely

BERLIN, Jan. 21 (By The Associated
Pressl-In a lengthy statement read
before the Reichstag this afternoon,
DR.. Walter Simons, the Foreign Secre-
tary, explained the governments posi-
tion with respect to resumption of
diplomatic and trade relations with
Soviet Russia.
The official declaration came in re-
sponse to an Interpolation presented
by the Independent Socialists, who de-
manded to know what steps the govern
ment. proposed to take to establish
relations with Germans eastern neigh
Dor, (which are equally profitable and
necessary for both countries"
In supporting the Interpolation,
Arthur Crispien, the Independent So
cialist leader, who was one Of the four
delegates his party sent to the Third
Internationale at Moscow, compared
Russia to the United States, Canada
and Argentina in respect to its char
acter as an export nation. Russia, he
said, would find Germany ready mar
ket for more than half it's exports of
food and fodder.
Answering the Interpolation, DR.. ST.
mons said:
"The German government has not
been able to alter the conditions which
have complicated political and trade
intercourse with Russia throughout
the whole world. The reason for this
is found primarily in the complete
evolution of Russia from her former
economic system, her artificial isola-
tion from the sea, her inaccessibility
by land and the total collapse of the
Russian transportation facilities. The
final obstacle is found in the Soviet
governments principles governing in
ternational trade and its attitude with
respect to revolutionary propaganda"
The reasons why Germany had not
yet resumed relations with Soviet Rus
sia, DR.. Simons added, were explained
by the Moscow governments failure
to make due amends for the murder Of
Count Won Mirbach, the German Am
bassador to Russia, and also the per-
sistency with which the Soviet regime
had attempted to carry. on political
agitation in Germany. The Foreign
Minister accused M. Zinovief, formerly
Bolshevik Governor of Petrograd, and
M. Losowsky, one of the Bolshevik
many, with fragrant breaches of Ger
man hospitality.
Referring to alleged concessions OBJ
tanned by Americans in Siberia, DR..
Simons observed that optimistic re-
ports brought back by American "com-
mercial pathfinders" probably would
not, be realized in their entirety. He
said he believed none Of the nations
now carrying on negotiations with
Russia would be able. to carry ou,
their trade plans without the aid of
Germany, and that one of them would
be able to dispense with German labor
in connection with their Russian
aspirations.
at is not our business either to
overthrow or to support the Soviet
government" said DR.. Simons. "In-
stead, we must concern ourselves with
the problem how the Russian people,
together with ourselves, can extricate
themselves from their present eco
nomic misery"

A Story About A
School Teacher

School, teacher ?
:. Citizens Of Crawford, New Jer-
sey, lost a good teacher in their
High School when Miss Helen
Bradbeer felt that she could not
afford to continue to work for
less than $25 a week, which was
her average salary for the 208
weeks she taught.
A graduate Of Barnard Col
lege, exceptionally talented, she
decided on business career, af-
ter failing to get ahead as q
teacher. In four years she had
been able to lay by less than
500. There are always de-
mands on teachers that eat up
pretty rapidly their small sal
aries. What pity it is that we
pay our teachers so little!
Miss Bradbeer obtained an i'm
portant position in the Consoli-
dated Budget Division of Henry
L. Doherty & Company, so Wall
Street. This, by the way, is a
very important department Of
the Doherty business. Receipts
and disbursements are budgeted
many months in advance for all
Of the Doherty. enterprises by
Louis F. Musil and his able as
sistant, David w. Harris, who is
In direct charge Of this depart
ment. It is Safety" to look and
to plan ahead!
There are three big words in
the D o h rty organization:
WORK, SERVICE, SAFETY.
The exceptional talent Of Miss
Bradbeer won her a place in this
department, where she earns in
salary and Prerequisites" enough
to enable her to lay aside about
$1,000 a year, which she invests
in safe securities and lets inter-
est and special dividends pile up.
In another five years Miss
Bradbeer expects to materially
increase her holdings of safe Sc
curities, because she has devel-
oped as good saleswoman after
q course in DR.. L. F. Fuld's
School for Security Statesmen,
which is operated by the Doherty
organization. She was graduated
from her class, consisting Of over
one hundred men and women,
with highest honors. She had an
average Of 95.8 per cent, which
college girls, as we'll as college
men and children in public
schools, know is stepping along
some"
DR.. Fuld conducts his classes
from 8 to 8 in the morning, so as
not to interfere with the regular
business day. On Saturdays ''he
has school" after business hours.
On January IL Miss Bradbeer
! addressed, by request, the
Wednesday Morning Woman's
Club, Of Crawford, N. j., outlin-
ing very clearly the fundament-
ais of finance, which most women
do not know very much about,
but seem very anxious to under
stand.
At social functions and on va
cation trips her friends "josh"
her good deal about her "finan-
cial mind" but she takes it good
naturedly, "talks right out in
meeting" to them, and generally
winds up by selling them some
securities. Her small commits
sions on sales run up during a
year to a very snug sum.
The Employer Ball Last Night.
Miss Bradbeer acted as chair
man Of the committee which had
In charge the details of the ball
held last night on the Waldorf
Roof, which was attended by 500
employees of the New York Office
sof Henry L. Doherty & Company
and their guests.
This was a thrifty" affair.
