Mantle to Issued

DUBLIN. June 3O.-(By The AS
ISOLATED Press.)-A manifesto to
the people of Ireland issued today
by the provisional Free State gov
eminent says:
For forty-eisht hours the SOL
der5 of your army have unflinch-
ingly borne the brunt of battle
against the forces of anarchy in
your capital. Some of them have
given their lives and many others
have been wounded in the defense OF
your rights at citizens.
you are faced with a conspir-
acy whose calculated end is to de-
stroy the treaty signed by your
representative and Endorsed by
yourselves. Under that treaty vhe
government and control of your
own country and its res ources llav {.
been surrendered back to you after
centuries of usurpation. You ara
asked to reject this surrender and
engage in hopeless and necessary
war with Great Britain. The peo-
pie III the Four Courts say they are
fighting for a republic. In reality
they are fighting to bring the Brit
ish back. Remember we ask that
no man or woman TO yield any
ideal or principle. Liberty will be
secured to all under constitutional
guarantees. but it will be a consti-
tutional liberty. and no man shall
be permitted to do violence to the
views of his neighbors or the will
of the majority.
Least of all will profession OF
ideals or principles be permitted as
an excuse for undermining the peo-
pies right to security of person.
property or freedom to live their
lives in their own way as long as
they do not trespass on the rights

Brig. Cen Herbert NJ. Lord be-
comes national budget director on
July 1. He succeeds Charles q.
Dawes, Chicago banker and former
comptroller OF the currency.
Most governments at least nave
pretended to run their finances on
the '.budget plan" for long time.
Tha. is to say, they estimated their
incomes in advance and tried to
keen expenses inside their revenue
estimates Frequently they dldn t
succeed but they made a bluff at
it anyway.
Until u year ago the United
States never worried as to what Its
prospective income was going to be.
The government departments SIM
NV got as big appropriations as
they could, met them out of cur
rent revenues as long as they con-
timed to come in and left their
deficits to luck.
Rightly considering this pretty
poor business, President Harding
resolved to try the budget system
out He engaged Dawes as direc-
tor. Dawes refused to stay more
than year and June 80. as per pro-
gram. he quit. 1t would have been
much more satisfactory expert
ment but for The fact that the de-
partm ents and Congress paid pre-
cious little attention TO his estI-
mates.
Lord who came originally from
Rockland, Me, was a newspaper
man once but has been in the army
since 1896. Lately he has been
chief of finance of the War Depart
ment
