in sympathy with the attitude OF the
formerly popular leader
An interview with one Of the ex-
tremist members Of the Irish re-
publican army who has fought the
British forces for years and could
be considered decidedly "antl-Eng-
lish" revealed an unexpected SYM
pathy with the new pact.
"I believe the boys who bore the
brunt Of the fighting and all our
people as a whole are unanimously
in favor OF this peace that our rep
resentatlves have drawn up with
England" he told the United Press.
He bitterly denounced DE Valera s
declaring;
"He was speech making safely in
America while we were fighting with
Collins and Grimths for our free
dom.
This treaty gives Ireland every
thing she needs and Infinitely more
than she expected
This attitude was reflected in
talks with other men in the army
and the expressed opinion OF mill
tary leaders.
The ordinary man and woman on
the streets Of Dublin want peace
badly and II is almost certain their
attitude will prevail when Michael
Collins. who seems to have rallied
the nation behind him, goes before
the Dali Eireann Wednesday to pre-
sent the pact only a most uneX-
pected reversal OF attitude can now
thwart whole-hearted acceptance, 1t
is believed.
Collins seemed to have gained the
sympathy De Valera has lost. He Is
national hero. Crowds cheer him
as he walks along the street and
gather in front of his home for
/ glance at him. He is already being
Hooked upon the father Of his coun-
try.
In all political circles the increase
in his power is being realized. His
alignment OF the two doubtful cab

are greeted with cold stares by the
crowds which stand in front OF th'
mansion house to watch the scurry'
ing OF the political ranks. Bu
when Collins appears there is wilC
acclaim.
Talking with members OF tn
crowd, Il was evident the people are
doing their utmost to force ratihca

eral said they had communicated
with their Dali representatives i'm

DIX. HULLIHEN IS
FOR XMAS SEALS
Writes Letter Commencing
Campaign of Anti-Tu-
berculosis Society
DO NOT SHARE IN
CITY RELIEF FUND

In letter to Miss Emily p Bissell,
President OF the Delaware Anti
tuberculosis Society. President Wal
ter Hullihen of the University Of
Delaware says:
Il am glad to commend in the
rheartiest way the splendid work OF
the tuberculosis Association. This
work is such a fine one and so ne
cessary as to make words OF praiSc
and commendation seem superfuous
The control OF tuberculosis in Della
ware in one OF the pressing problems
which the enlightened citizens of
the state have to meet Surely there
is no easier way to make ones con-
tribution than through the purchase
of Christmas Seals to be used on
our letters at this season when we
are. or ought TO be. most keenly
alive to our duty OF fellowship and
goodwill to all around us. especially
the sick and afflicted.
Very truly yours.
Walter Hullihen.
President.
ITO scrap battleships will save
the taxpayers of America many bill
lions" says an advocate of the
Christmas Seals. But to scrap tu-
berculosis would mean more of a
gain. Two and a half years would
be added TO the life of every man,
woman and child in America II tu-
berculosis could be wiped out. II
each adult is worth 500 year to
the nation-and who would set the
value Of a housewife or a working
man at lcss-the United states
would be the richer by twenty-five
/ billions of dollars a year.
"Yet some people who are follow
ing the Limitation of Armaments
with daily interest have forgotten to
buy any Christmas Seals Are they
not a bit unpatriotic?
"A letter received at the Seal Of
fee contains the statement that the
writer understands that the Mayor
Emergency Relief Fund would take
care of all the charities this winter
This is a mistake, for, as a matter OF
fact, the Mayors Committee is gath
ering. funds only for Wilmington re-
lief organizations, such as the AS
ISOLATED Charities, the Sunday
Breakfast Mission, etc. The hospi-
tails and the tuberculosis work and
other institutions receive nothing
from this fund, and must depend on
the public as usual"
