Two Millions Will
Starve Despite
Help OF World

PARIS, Sept. 2. = Colonel Ed
ward w. Ryan, American Red
Cross commissioner in the Baltic
state, arrived in Paris today from
Riga.
More than 100000 Russians
will die as a result of the famine,
despite all the help the entire
world can offer, and it is question
able if one of them will be COM
munist," said Col. Ryan.
The commissioner estimated
that the cost of feeding twenty
million starving Russians pound
of bread daily would be S1,O6j, 900
each day. He said he feared chol-
era and the plague would follow
the famine, and that conditions
would be worse in the country in
February than they now are.

DUBLIN, Sept. 2. - (By the Asso-

Collins, Sim Fein minister of com
merce and commander in chief of the
Irish republican army, is attracting
great attention here. 1t has been an
nounced that Collins purposes to ad-
dress a meeting at Armagh Sunday.
Armagh is the district in which the
Orange association was first organic
ed and Orangemen are declared to
regard the visit there of Collin, as an
invasion of their territory by a
rebel"
Collins was elected to the northern
parliament for Armagh.
Sir Edward Carson, the Ulster lead
er, in forecasting the attitude of mis-
followers on the establishment of the
northern parliament. said they would
keep rebels" out of their provin5s.
Accordingly. it is considered as likely
that Orangemen will take as a chal-
lelge the visit of a man, who, as the
republican army's commander in chief
Is credited in Ulster with being the
chief organizer of physical force.
Armagh is a city which observes
Sunday strictly as it is observed in
Scotland, where political meetings are
barred. Sundays meeting is to be
preceded by a procession, and the
hope was expressed today that the
leaders in the movement would con-
fine it to the Nationalist quarter of
the city.
In some quarters here the belief is
expressed that the visit of Collins to
Armagh likely will lead to visits by
Sim Fein members of the northern
parliament to their districts in Ulster

Special Despatch to THE New YORK
HnRALp.
New Ysrk Herald Bureau,
Washington, ID. O.. June "a.
THE publication of the Stacker
lists by the War Department
has caused so many controversies
and revealed so many errors that
the resolution Of Representative
Beck (Wis.), one of the La Fol-
lette followers, to publish the
names Of all corporations or in
dividuals that made more than 20
per cent. profit during the war is
receiving little approval in Con-
gress.
Mr.. Beck said the profiteers
should be exposed since the slack
ers have been. 1t was pointed
out to-day by Congress leaders
that many controversies and
probably scores of damage suits
would result from such action.
1t would be difficult in many in
stances to determine whether
the profit was really greater than
25 per cent, 1t was believed.
Another charge of Mr.. Beck
was that the big war profiteers
have failed to pay the Govern
ment $1,000,000,000 in taxes
due. The Treasury Department
this week started a drive to col
lect unpaid taxes or those fraud
ulently evaded.

have all that is needed TO secure

The Department insists on main
tanning both the precedent and the
propriety which forbids a Govern
ment servant of your position dis
cussing such matters in foreign
country.
That the impropriety of such pub
lie utterances has once before been
brought to your attention is shown
by the fact that q public reprimand
was administered to you in 1911 for
making the following statement In
a public speech in London: IF the
time ever comes when the British
Empire is seriously menaced by an
external enemy, 1t is my opinion that
you may count upon every man,
every dollar. every drop of blood of
your kindred across the sea-"
In the reprimand above mentioned
the duties and responsibilities of Of
ficers of the navy who speak In pub
lie were clearly and fully set
forth. Your remarks on the occa-
sion now under discussion, there
fore, constitute a fragrant and de-
liberate disregard of specific instruc-
tions.
The Department is not unmind-
full of your record and achievements
as an officer of the navy, but the
conspicuous position you now hold,
coupled with the fact that you have
previously offended in a similar
manner. merely serves to add to
the gravity Of the present offence.
The Department deplores the fact
that 1t is necessary to rebuke
flag officer in public. but you have
made such action unavoidable.
The Department expresses its
strong and unqualified disapproval
Of your conduct in having again de-
livered highly improper speech in
foreign country. and you are here
by publicly reprimanded.
The New York herald., 1921-06-25

On June s. 1921, there appeared in
the public press throughout the
country a report of certain state
ments alleged to have been made by
you on the occasion of a luncheon
given in London on the previous
day, at which you were the guest
of the English Speaking Union.
These public statements, if cor
rectly reported, dealt with matters
which probably should be the sub
ject of comment by no high govern
mental official other than one to
whom the care of our foreign policy
is entrusted.
Your letter Of June %, in which
you furnish the Department with an
abstract of the speech delivered by
you on the occasion in question, con-
firms in essential points the afore-
said press reports. and shows that on
a public occasion in a foreign coun-
try you gave utterance to the fol-
lowing statements:
II do not want to touch on the
Irish question, for I know nothing
about 1t, and have not run across
anybody in England who does. But
there are some people in our coun-
try who technically are Americans,
some of them naturalized and some
native born; but some Of them are
not really Americans at all. Some Of
these people are now trying to de-
stroy the good relations between our
two countries. They are Americans
when they want money but Sim
Feiners when on the platform. They
are enemies of ours and yours They
are like the zebra-either white
horses with black stripes or black
horses with white stripes. We know
that they are not horses. And some
people think they are asses; but
each one Of these asses had vote
and 1t is one of the inconveniences
of a republican form Of Government
that American born citizens thought
1t necessary to cater to these votes.
This necessarily created a wrong
impression on this side as to the
sentiments Of the great body of
Americans, but the people of Great
Britain know how much confidence
to place in resolutions which are
forced by these tackass votes.
Eleven years ago i made a
