The Cause Of Insurgents.

New YOrk.-Eamonn De Valera,

land, his secretary, announced here
Friday. BOland said that De Valera's
object in returning to Ireland was to

A message of farewell to America.

month later was notified of his cleo
ton as president of the Irish re.
public"
De Valera's whereabouts continued
mystery until June %, 1919, when
he suddenly appeared in this country

WaldOrf-Astoria here to begin an ap-
peal for funds in behalf of the Irish
republic" He also started a cam

OVERRIDE VETO Of
EMERGENCY ACT
CONGRESS APPROVES FARMERS
RELIEF BILL IN SPITE OF
EXECUTIVE DlSAPPROvAL.
President Declared He Withheld Ap-
prevail Because the War Finance
Corporation Was a War Credit
Agency Not Needed Now.

WashingtOn.-VetO by President
Wilson on January 8 of the farmers
relief bill to revive the war finance
corporation was followed almost i'm
mediately by vote of So to 5 in the
senate to make the bill law despite
executive disapproval.
The vote in the house on the follow
in day was nearly as ample as that
cast in the senate. The house stood
$50 for the measure and &C against,
or 81 more than the required two
thirds majority. Seventeen Demo-
Gratis and forty-nine Republicans
voted to sustain the veto, while for
the bills passage there were 1876 Re-
publicans, ia Democrats and one
Prohibitionist.
President Wilson will have to fill
at least one of the two vacancies on
the board of directors of the revived
war finance corporation before it can
make any considerable number of
loans for financing exports with a
view to affording relief to farming and
other industries. This statement was
made by treasury officials after the
resolution directing revival of the cor
pOratiOn became a law through it's
passage by the house over the presi-
dents veto.
President Wilson, in veto message,
declared he withheld his approval be-
cause the war finance corporation was
needed in peace times. He said it
would exert no beneficial influence
on the situatiOn-wOuld raise false
hopes among the people who would
expect most, and would be hurtful to
the natural and orderly processes of
business and finance"

COUNCIL MAY PLEAD
CASE WITH HARDING
LEADERS ARGUE WISDOM OF
URGING PRESlDENT-ElEcT NOT
TO FORM NEW ASSOCIATION.
May Send Intermediary to Urge Upon
President-elect the Difficulties
That Europe Will Encounter II
v. s. Abandons Covenant.

Paris.-Members of the council of
the league Of nations have been talk
ing Informally on the ACCESSIBILITY of
sending a special intermediary or en-
voy to President-elect Harding imme-
diately after his Inauguration, to pre-
sent the case Of the league of nations
and to urge on him the difficulties
which European countries would ex-
psrience In abandoning the league and
setting up a new form of association
Of nations.
Principal grounds for this conten-
ton are that the covenant is a part
Of the peace treaty which gives the
league administration over the Saare
valley, the Danzig region and num-
Der of mandates and plebiscites. The
view Is held among members of the
French ministry that the solidity Of
the treaty would be shaken If the
league part were abandoned.
This has led to a growing conviction
among the principal allied powers that
the league should be kept going in
some form, but not necessarily as now
constituted, the ACCESSIBILITY of re-
vision Of the covenant being quite gen.
orally recognized. 1t is considered an
understanding on the future form of
the league could be more readily
reached II representative of the
league council were able to discuss
the subject directly with Mr. Harding.
Confidence is expressed that if direct
discussion eliminated from the coven-
ant all that is Objectionable to the
United States the president-elect
would not insist on the abandonment
of the organization already at work.

Would Deprive Women Of Citizenship
From Naturalization Of Husbands.
WashingtOn.-Drastic changes in
the naturalization law, especially as
applying to women, are provided in a
bill reported favorably by the house
immigration committee. The measure
will take the place of two naturaliz-
alton bills on the house calendar and
an effort will be made, according to
Representative Johnson of Washing
ton, chairman, to have congress ap-
prove 1t at this session.
Women, under the bill, no longer
would derive citizenship from natural
izatiOn Of husbands, but would be re-
quired to make individual applications
for citizenship.
They also would lose their American
citizenship by marrying aliens, except
when an alien husband cannot law
fully become an American citizen, or
when woman resides two years in
her husbands country or five years in
some other country.

SERIOUS CONDITION
OF CUBAN AFFAIRS
INTERVENTION BY THE UNITED
STATES NOW LOOMS AS A
POSSIBILITY.
Uncle Sam May Step In and
Straighten Out Matters Should the
Mission Of General CroWdee
Prove q Failure.

Washington.-It is said that disclos-
ures here Of the serious condition of
affairs in Cuba suggests strong pos
sibility of American Intervention in
the event Of the failure of General
CrOwder's mission.
The United States has interviewed in
Cuba once under the Plat amendment
since the original occupation following
the Spanish war and it has been free
ly predicted that if we should be COM
PEELED to 60 in again we would 60 in
to stay.
The Cuban minister, DR.. Carlos Man.
uel de Cespedes, was so startled by
the dispatch of General Crowder and
a staff of military aides to Havana
aboard battleship that he called at
the state department Tuesday, seeking
an explanation. He was apprehensive,
he said, that the Cuban people would
jump to the conclusion that interven-
ton was contemplated.
Acting Secretary Of State Davis in
formed the minister that the purpose
Of the president in dispatching Gen.
eral CrOwder to Cuba was amply set
forth in the White House statement,
and sought to impress him with the
necessity of the Cuban government
taking effective steps to remedy the
existing chaotic situation.
The trouble in Cuba may be set
forth under three heads:
Economic, signified by the shut
down of sugar cane mills and general
stagnation of industry.
Financial, caused by excessive sugar
crop speculation, resulting in the in
sOlvency of numerous banks and the
establishment Of a moratorium by the
government.
Political, emanating from failure to
determine who has been elected
president, charges of election frauds
clOuding the result.
Cuba appears to be suffering from
sugar spree and the morning after.
With sugar selling at 25 cents in the
United States last year, Cuba was
rolling in wealth and sugar million
aires were made in a day. Then the
price Of sugar slumped, the cane mills
closed and Cuba went broke.
