M'KEOWN'S RELEASE
DELIGHTS IRELAND
Newspapers Praise Lloyd
George for His Efforts
for Peace.

Special Cable 70 THE VIEW TpRK HERALD.
Copyright. 1891. by THE Nrw YoRK HERALD
DUBLIN, Aug. 9.--Ireland came into
its own to-day with the opening OF the
Dublin horse show. The people are care
free and are rejoicing with typical
abandon. the show offering an excuse.
but the real inspiration is the release
OF John j. McKeown, member OF the
Irish Republican Parliament, which has
had an astonishing effect In ieighrening
the hopes OF a durable truce and ulti-
mate peace.
The city Is en- fete with mnch the
same spirit OF relief which was mani
tested whom the truce was praclaimed
McKeown's release has created an at
mosphere which is certain to assist con-
siderably the Dali Eireann's delibera-
tions OF the peace terms on August 16
Everybody is speaking of the highly
expeditions manner In which Premier
Lloyd George dealt with the crucial sit
uation, the newspapers referring to his
action in such words as have long been
absent from their columns when refer
ring to him.
1t Is difficult to realize that a month
ago these jewellers of to-day were living
in hourly apprehension OF danger from
one side or another in the fight which
daily was bringing Its toll OF dead. Men
ION the run who still are not accus-
toned to sleep in the same bed on sue
cessive nights appeared smiling at Balls
Bridge and the officials who not long
ago had pursued them did likewise.
Country folk who recently dreaded visits
by the Irish Republican Army as much
as by the Black. and Tans are talking
horses and peace over a glass of ale.
Large crowds gathered benbre the
Mansion House and cheered the arrival
Of the members OF the Irish Republican
Parliament who have just been released
from prison and who were cordially
welcomed by Eamon de Valera
The Independent sees In McKeown's
release proof that the English are act
ing as II they wish to make a peace
that was genuine and sincere" and
adds: The British Government has not
only SHOWN that 1t can act with court
liness to its enemies. but-and this is
far mere important--tl1ey are animated
by will for peace
The irish Times says: Two courses
were possible. The Government could
treat the Republican demand and threat
on its merits or could subordinate all
questions of merit and procedure to a
supreme interest for peace. They now
have strengthened their position enor-
mously by refusing to do anything which
would allow anybody now or hereafter
to charge them with the slightest meas
ure of responsibility for a failure Of the
negotiations"
Dublin hotels are crowded for the first
time in years and society Is blossoming
in its old glory. Viscount FitZalan, Lord
Lieutenant of Ireland. will attend the
show tomorrow informally. but exten-
sive preparations are being made for his
coming in state later In the week as the,
Eiceroys used to do.
Everywhere It Is freely admitted tlsa t
McKeowns release is the happiest de-
velopment that has vet happened in the
interest of peace.

HARDING ANNOUNCES
PARLEY DATE AS NOV. III
Special Despatch to THE NEW YORK HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau,
WASHINGTON, ID. c.. Aug. 3.

Washington -. u. aug. y.
President Harding announced Official
ly tonight that November IL. the third
anniversary of the armistice that ended
the fighting in the world war, has been
definitely approved by all the Powers as
the opening date for the Washington
confers nee which he has called to con-
slider limitation of armaments and Far
Eastern problems.
The President Is in favor of the fullest
possible publicity at the conference. The
United States. however. will not propose
to the other participating delegations
that the sessions be open to the public.
1t would do so IL 1t we're not for the
fact that European diplomacy Is not
used to such methods, and the chances
of success would, in the opinion of the
President and Mr.. Hughes. be limited by
the holding of open sessions.
It is feared that II the sessions were
always open to the public the delegates
would spend most Of their time making
fine speeches for home consumption but
would be shy about talking plainly in
terms OF battleships, army corps and
dollars and cents.

RIGA, Aug. 9.-The report received at
Reval last night that six American pris-
oners were due to arrive at Camburg.
Esthonia. to-day appears to be mis-
take. as a message says that no Ameri-
can prisoners are expected to come out
of Russia by that route.
On the eve of the arrival of repre-
sentatives of the American Relief Ad-
ministration and Soviet Russia to dis
cuss American relief plans the Soviet
Government to-day issued statistics terd-
ing to show greater effort to combat
hunger than in other famine years.
According to these statistics. Soviet
relief is progressing well and claims are
made that 1t is possible. with limited
facilities, to transport food. From June
26 to July 20, it is claimed. $4,000 peas
ants. who have been forced to live on
grass. have officially migrated TO fruit
full Siberia by the Moscow-kazan Rail
way. while $1,000 already have been
transported on the Volga River.
There are in operation S63 public
kitchens. with a capacity to feed 6.000.-
900 persons daily. and ninety-six kitch-
ems for children, with a capacity of
10000 daily. the report declared. al
though naturally food supplies are not
plentiful"

alone-in other words that the status
quo should not be disturbed and mat
ters already settled should not be re-
opened. because the reopening OF one
accomplished fact obviously might lead
% reconsideration of others. perhaps
the building up of limitless agenda In
volving remote acts OF the Powers.
On the other hand. matters not yet
settled and those general In scope could
clearly enter the domain of the discus
sion. while questions affect .ng the future
Of Russia, China and the Far East gem
orally could logically be subjects for
consideration.
Admiral Baron Sotokichi Uriu. who
recently returned from a visit to the
United States. Is quoted as calling at
tention to the paramount Importance OF
a practical understanding between Japan
and the United States being attained.

CRANE SEES RELIEF
PROBLEM In RUSSIA
Likens Present Conditions to
Those in China During Last
Years Famine.

Special Gable to THE Ngw York HERALD,
Copyright, 1921, by THD new YORK HERALD.
REvAL, via London, Aug. 9.-Charles
r. Crane. formerly United States Minis
ter to China, has arrived here from
Moscow. Mr.. Crane. who has closely
studied the famine situation in Russia
said it presents the same features as
did the famine in China last year. The
famine there resulted from a two years
drought The great problem In China
was to get the people to remain on the
land. Mr. Crane said this was done BY
supplying them with food and seeds TO
tide them over the difficult times. All
the difficulties were overcome and
millions of Chinese were saved by
vast cooperative movement in which all
the Powers. including Japan. assisted
Mr.. Crane said the Chinese themselves
carried their food and seeds in carts
and barrows from the various distribut-
ing centres, where the relief work was
directed by two foreigners, one having
great knowledge of China and the other
being competent administrator.
The same problem is TO be met In
cost. be kept on the land. Relief can
be sent by way of Petrograd. Novgorod
or Mariupol on the Sea of Azoff, and
thence across the country to the central
Volga region.
Mr.. Cranes greatest difficulty in
China was to pursuade the Pekin
Government to let foreigners administer
the relief work there. the PeSin
officials wanting to handle all the
money themselves. Pekin's obstinacy
in this connection nearly led to the
breaking down of the relief scheme, but
finally the Chinese officials accepted the
arrangements deemed best by the for
eigners. The same difficulty presents
itself in Russian to-day, the Soviet
Government insisting upon controlling
distribution. but Mr.. Crane expressed
confidence in the success of the relief
work as a humanitarian project. free
from politics and nationality.
