A full text of Lenine's speech reached

party.

policy of dealing with Bourgeois gov

Concession Seekers Called "Jackals'
Defending the concessions granted
recently by the Soviet government to
group of American financiers. Lenine
referred to the latter as "a group of
American capitalist jackals of the most
savage kind" but none the less he
pleaded for approval of these conces
sions as a necessary means of saving
the Soviet government. The only
group of American financiers who have
received any concessions from the
Soviet government is that headed by
Washington d. Vanderlip, of Los An
geles, who recently returned from Rus

ITO defeat capitalism in general"
said Lenine in part, sit is necessary,
first, to defeat the exploiters and de-
fend the rights of the exploited and,
secondly, to establish new economic re-

lem we will find that no victories in
the cause of smashing the exploiters, in
the cause of the defeat of international
capitalism, will lead to anything tangi-
Bile and that return to the old scheme
of things will be inevitable"

Lord Decies Is Candidate
For Irish Parliament

DUBLIN, Jan. 9.-The first candidate
publicly to offer himself for election to
the Southern Irish Parliament is Lord
Decies, who has written a letter for
publication tomorrow in the Irish
newspapers, in which he admits that
the Home Rule act is far from perfect,
but says lit represents a gift of self
government which is ours for the ask
ing"
Expressing the belief that the Home
Rule act can be made still better, Lord
Decles announces his purpose Of asking
some Southern Irish constituency to
elect him member of the Southern
Parliament.
"Ihey may refuse me-" said Lord
Decles, but shall feel that have at
tempted something practical and done
more for Ireland than those VINO, how
ever sincere their purpose, continue to
quarre! Indefinitely with an accom-
plished fact"
The action Of Lord Decies is sup
posed to be part of the plan of the
government to encourage willingness
to work for the new act, and it is ex-
pected that more candidates like Lord
Decies will be announced.
Lord Decies. married Vivien Could
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. George J.
Gould. Early last year reports were
in circulation that Lord Decies might
become Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. He

our party" to the granting Of conces
sions to foreign capitalists, Lenine re-
iterated his position that Soviet Russia
cana out victorious in the struggle with
foreign Intervention not because 1--WE
proved ourselves stronger in a military
sense but because of the process of do
nestle dissolution in the countries of the
Entente" and the divergence of their
respective interests.
Seeks Discord Among Allies
One of the objects of Soviet foreign
policy, said the Bolshevik Premier, is
to sow still greater discord between
France and England and among the
Allies in general than that which, to his
mind, already exists.
"This discord has increased considera-
bly, said Lenine, especially as a result
Of the project for the conclusion of a
trade agreement with group of Ameri-
can capitalist jackals of the most saw
age kind. headed by multimiliionaire
who plans to round up about him a
group of other millionaires."
Lenine regarded the Vanderlip con-
cessions, to which he referred in the
latter passage, rs capable of rousing
discord between the United States on
one side and France and England on
the other. Apparently he seemed to be
of the opinion that Vanderlip represent
ed American capital in general, which
in turn, would be in position to force
the government at Washington to enter
into trade relations with Russia and
even recognize the Soviet government.
Lenine prided himself on the fact
that the Soviet government had finally
obtained "a foothold" in the interna-

Lord Reading is known among his
English political associates as man
who rose to fame without making an
enemy. Born of an obscure Jewish
family, he began the practice of law
and in 1906 entered the House of Com
mons. BY his own efforts he subse-
quently, rose to be Lord CHIEF Justice
OF England. He came to America in
January, 1918, as ambassador to Wash
llngton to succeed Sir Cecil Spring
Rlce, and resigned about seven months
America in 1915, when he came TO
New York at the head of an Allied
commission to negotiate a loan of
$5OO,000,00O. Recent unofficial reporta
have foreshadowed his selection for
the viceroyship.

AMERICAN FIRST IN FIELD
Idea Of Wireless Long Before
Marconi Perfected Il.

Mahlon LOOMS, who lived in West
Springfield. Mass, Is credited with
having sent the fest aerial message in
1865. thus antedating Marconi, who
did not begin his experiments until
1895.
In 1872 L0Omis obtained patent
for his system Of aerial telegraphy,
and would today probably have been
heralded MS the discoverer Of wireless
telegraphy II he had been given prop
er financial support and encourage
ment from the public, instead Of be-
ing ridiculed. As 1t was, congress
passed the "Loomis aerial telegraph
bill" in 1873, ,appropriatlng $4,000 for
further development, but the sum
never reached LOomis.
LOOMS made the first public demon
stratlon of wireless possibilities in
1865 from the peaks of the Blue
Ridge mountains In Virginia, Ia miles
apart. A kite was raised from each
mountain with copper wire attached
to telegraphing apparatus, and the
message sent by LoOmis was received
at the other station as though the two
had been connected by wires.
I.oomis also made successful expert
ments communicating between vessels
In Chesapeake bay< The vessels were
stationed about two miles apart, and
on each was telegraph apparatus.
Wires were attached to the instru-
ments with their other ends thrown
into the water at a moderate depth.
Another insulated wire Of much great
err strength was thrown into a cold
stratum Of water. These two strata
connected with the same battery made
a complete circuit.
