WALSH DEPRECATES
TROUBLE WITH BRITAIN
But Senator Wants u. S. to
Aid IreIond's Cause.

CHICAGO. Feb. 19.--Five hundred per-
sons tonight raised $4,000 for relief
work in Ireland BY paying 800 each
for dinner given by the recently or
gani.ed American Committee for Relief
in Ireland.
Senator David /. Walsh of Massachu-
setts told his audience that while no
American held any i'll feeling against
the English people or desired to create
dissensicn between England and the
United States. this country could not
maintain Il hands off policy in regard
to Ireland
NO American dares to think Of bring
ing about any incilent in relationships
that would lead to eelicus misunder-
standing between England and the
United States" he said There is not
one iota of sentiment against the Eng
lish people as such. 1t Is because we
earnestly desire friendship between our
nation and Great Britain that we seek
TO impress upon England the necessity
of ending the unhappy state of ireland.
''But neither America nor any other
civilized nation can stand Idly by and
allow tho confla grafton TO sweep
through ireland. The policy Of hands
Off is policy OF stagnation and

the incoming Harding Administra ton q
clean slate in handling problems grow
ing out of the war. The viewpoint of
the department Is that the question OF
reparations must be dealt with through
unified action, and the United States is
morally bound to cooperate with the
Allies and not to disapprove Of any ac-
tion they may take In an effort to solve
the perplexing reparations problem"
The present Administration has long
realized the anomalous situation in
which this Government was placed by
representation on the Preparations Com-
mission without voice in agreements
reached. The failure of the United
States to ratify the treaty perfected at
Versailles has left the Administration
in the position of merely killing time.
At the same time the presence Of an
American at the meetings of the Repa-
rations Commission continues to give
the impression that this Government was
represented in the arrangements
reached. Naturally, it is pointed out,
Mr.. Boyden could not agree to any
thing, and 1t was thought best to dis
continue unofficial discussions which
could lead nowhere.
1t was explained to-day that a change
in the treaty itself might result from
an agreement by the allied nations to
solve the reparations problem and We're
the United States represented at the dis
cussions when such an agreement should
be reached its representative would be
asked to approve It. He could not DO
this. since the State Department Is itself
unable to say what attitude the United
States would assume.

NEW STEPS TAKEN
FOR DISARMAMENT
Meeting Held in Brooklyn to
Urge World Conference and
Other Steps.

Representatives of churches and other
organizations believing in disarmament
met last night in the music room Of the
Brooklyn Academy of Music and urged
that steps be taken at once to call a
conference of nations for the purpose Of
discussing the most feasible means of
obtaining universal disarmament.
The Brooks resolution, which is due
10 come up soon in Congress and which
calls on the President to call such a
conference, was indorsed by a unani-
nous vote.
Speakers were the Rev. John Howland
Lathrop of the Unitarian Church of the
Saviour; Don C. Seitz. business manager
of the World; Mrs. Jessie Hardy Mac
Kaye. Legislative chairman of the Wom-
ems Peace Society. and the Rev. Dr.
Sidney l.. GuLck, secretary of Oriental
Relations of the World Alliance for In
ternational Friendship Through the
Churches. The Rev. DIR. Lathrop pre-
sided.
Mr.. Seitz said the reason the United
States gave an adverse vote to the
entry of this country into the League
of Nations was that the people did not
understand what the league meant. He
said a vote for the league would have
been a vote for disarmament. At the
present time. he said, the logical thing
is for the United States to take the
lead in the move for disarmament.
Every other nation. he said. would
gladly follow the lead of this country.
The Rev. DR.. Gulick said that senti-
ment in Japan is strongly in favor OF
disarmament and that Japan would join
In any movement to lessen ornaments.
His conclusion was based, he said. upon
observations in Japan and from read
ing the japanese newspapers.

effort will be made TO raise a loan for

The possibilities of Palestine. both as
a producing and consuming country, are
immense. Sir Alfred said but pointed out
that Palestine suffered much during the
war, and many of its most fertile tracts
now resemble desert The cost OF
living in Palestine has risen 500 per
cent, Sir Alfred declared. adding that
the country is in need of everything,
including all forms of machinery.
Sir Alfred said the authorities were
convinced of the existence of mineral oil
in Palestine and actually knew that
phosphates and asphalt were there.

LONDON, Feb. 19.-H. H. Asquith, for

to-day severely attacked the Irish pol
icy OF the Government and it's failure TO

He declared that "the hideous success
sion of blunders and crimes committed

Great Britain sunk so low in the moral

Disastrous possibilities of the failure

The possibility that war may break out

by this authority.
Sir William outlines the situation in
substance as follows:
Austria will try to join Germany or

part. The terror OF Bolshevism also
enters into the situation.
