frequently brought aboard and Sc

"A dozen experienced narcotic Of

Britain to Blame
For Childers' Death,
Says Mrs. MacSwiney
By International News Service.

Execution of Erskine Childers is
conclusive proof that England is
facing imminent defeat in her long
battle to keep the irish people 'un-
der subjugation," Mrs. Muriel Mac
Swiney, widow Of the Lord Mayor
of Cork who died Of hunger strike
while in an English prison, declared
today
England is trembling on the
threshold OF defeat in her effort TO
keep Ireland her chattel. But it Is
now only a matter of time before
the Irish really will be free"
Although Childers was executed
by the Free State, the British,
Mrs. MacSwiney declared, were re.
sponsible.
THE Free State" she said. ''is
not representative of true Ireland.
Members OF the Free State are but
servants Of the British, TO whom
tney have sworn allegiance and at
whose beck and call they are sub
ject.
1T shows that the British are on
their last legs. They are at the
end or their rope in trying to keep
Ireland under English rule. Child
ers' execution will create the great.
est horror throughout Ireland and
the world. and the reaction will
find Englands hold on Ireland
hanging by a thread"

TIGER TAKES Up
CR|T|C|SMbY
SENATORS
Advisers Are Disturbed Be-
cause Attacks Have Not
Been Bipartisan.
BY HARRY l.. ROGERS.
International News Service.

BOSTON, Nov. 24.-Georges Glenn.
enceau. former premier of France,
and his advisers today turned their
attention to the question of meet
ing the avalanche of criticism
which has developed among Demo
Gratis and Republicans alike at
Washington,
Though the heads of all, includ-
ing that of the Tiger" himself,
have been little turned by the
wonderful reception accorded him
yesterday by the city of Boston,
the old Frenchman Is too shrewd
to fail to see a difficult situation
which requires a program of eau
ton.
Thus far he had declined to make
any specific statement concerning
the direct charges of Senators
Borah, Hitchcock and others. mere
ly saying he Is pleased that there
are to be discussions and that he
welcomes an opportunity to make
the American people think about
France.
Advisers Are Disturbed.
Nevertheless, his shrewder advis-
ers are a little disturbed because
the criticism thus far developed
apparently is not bipartisan. They
had not looked forward to oppo-
sition from Democrats who de-
Tended the treaty Of Versailles and
they are beginning to- wonder
whether Clemenceau has been too
indefinite in his proposals for
American intervention" in Europe.
They appreciate the fact that
Americans insist upon something
definite rather than an abstract
suggestion that France and Amer
lea should come nearer. There they
are attempting to develop in the
Iger's' speeches some clear-cut
policy which will he plain to both
Democrats and Republicans and
which will bring about division
upon party lines.
