They made big gesture to the world that they were letting the Irish settle the question themselves, telling the world that if the conference was unanimous, they would see if they couldn't put it into operation and at the same time tell ing their own nominees not to agree to anything the majority of the con vention might propose.
 "Pretence number two lasted twelve
 months, and during this time Sim Fein grew from an infant to a giant

 he said: Ireland went into the peace conference at London with the flag of the Irish republic nailed to the top of the mast. and whether we come out or that conference into peace or war, we will come with the flag of the lrlsh republic in the same position
 Much merriment was aroused by the speakers references to Lloyd Georges absence from the armament conference at Washington. which the speaker facetiously described as due to Lloyd Georges failure to get as passports from the Irish republic, and somewhat more seriously as an ex- ample of the old game of Hold me or I'll hit him. intimating that the British Premier was glad to have an excuse for remaining away from Washington.
 "England's course towards Ireland since 1914 has been a series of four great pretences,'' said Fr. O'Fianagan, and illustrated his point with this story: There was a shoemaker in Ireland who made a pair of shoes and the man forgot to pay. After wards he met the man and asked him to pay, and the man said: Never ordered any pair of shoes from you and if did. didn't get them. and if

 We got from England a similar series of excuses continued Fr. O'Flanagan. We were asked to go out and fight for liberty of small na- tions and 150,0O0 Irishmen responded. We said Seeing there's a lot of lib- erty going round, would you mind giving us the same as the rest. Eng land turned round and said: You're free, and if you are not free, we will make you free, and if you are not free, you don't deserve it, and even if you did. we couldn't make you free
 You are free already. That was the tune from August, 1914, to Easter Week, 1916, when they had a Home Rule Act among the inviolate statutes of England. That lasted until our men went out and fought and died on the continent as they thought for lib- erty, without result. Then Padraic Pearse, and the heroes of Easter Week went into the streets of Dublin acting in accordance with the wishes of the Irish people and proclaimed Ireland an independent republic Then the pretence was thet we were no longer free already, and therefore it became necessary to make us free, Pretence number two, then proceed to make us free for the benefit of enIooking ma tions by assembling a convention ir Dublin composed of the chairman of the county councils elected eight years before for the sole purpose of making

 Fr. O'F1anagan then dissected the theory of strategic unity, and declared that if it were carried to its logical conclusion, it would mean the absorp- tion of Canada by the United States and and the cession to the United States by England of all the islands
 owned by the British Empire in the Western Hemisphere
