Oklahoma Divine Has Been in
Hot Water Since Famous
Sermon at Grave.
By International News Service.

LAYTON, Okla. May 1.-Authori.
ties today were endeavoring to trace
the Identities OF three men who
attacked the Rev. Thomas j. Irwin
and left him bound hand and foot
near the gates OF Medicine Hat,
twelve miles from this city.
Mr.. Irwin, pastor Of the First
Presbyterian Church, who has been
the center OF a bitter church feud,
was stin in a nervous candition to-
day and was unable TO give a clear
story of the kidnapping and smuggling
He said he was seized by the men as
he was returning from calling on a
parishioner, placed in a closed auto
mobile, beaten and finally thrown
out of the car. He was unable to
give a description of his assailants,
who were not masked.
Opposition to Mr.. Irwin reached a
climax last week, when he was
ordered to appear before church
board this month to be tried for con
duct unbecoming a Presbyterian min
ister."
Criticism against him began when
Irwin preached his famous "Phari-
sees and Publicans" sermon over the
body of his lifelong friend, Jake
Hamon, after the shooting for which
Clara Smith Hamon was tried and
acquitted. Further anita gonism was
aroused against him for performing
a marriage ceremony over a couple
attired in bathing suits at a bathing
pool in Medicine Park last August.
This marriage was annulled last
week. on petition of the bride that
she was under age of consent at the
time

LONDON, May Following a
night of sporadic firing in the Dub
lin streets, the Irish Labor Party
today resumed its efforts to bring
about peace. but adVices from Dub
lin indicated that there was little
chance OF early success.
The chief aim of the Irish labor
ties is to curb the growing power Of
the military factions and to put the
free state under full control of
civilian authority.
II the laborites are successful, a
state council eventually will be con.
stituted to control military matters.
Arthur Griffith, president OF the
Dali Eireann, has concluded his
weekend speech making without
mishap, although his address at En-
mis-, was interrupted by exploding
hand grenades. 1t was in this
speech that Griffith made the signi-
ficsTit declaration that the govern
ment viii meet an intrigue that may
be arrayed against IT,"
II is believed by some that, at the
proper moment, Michael Collins will
call upon Great Britain for military
aid and will then start an offensive
Campaign which will wipe out the
opposition. IL is realized that, II
Collins calls upon England for mill.
tary assistance. Il will strengthen
the hands of the republicans,
The British government is said TO
have the closest sympathy with Col.
Inns and is in closer touch with his
every move than IL generally re-
allied. Colonial Secretary Winston
Churchill is the go-between.
