in Defiance of
Griffith.

Dublin, Ireland, March 22.-By
the Associated Press.)-It was Of
ficially announced in the Republi-
can organ here today that the Irish
Republican army convention, the
holding of which was recently for
hidden by Arthur Griffith, president
of the Dali Eireann, would be held
in Dublin on Sunday, as arranged.
The announcement is taken here to
mean that a definite split in the
Republican army has come.
According to Commandant Rod

neering of the headquarters staff
of the Irish Republican army, so
per cent of the army's members be-
lieve the army has been "let down
and that the Dali Eireann has been
false to the Republican oath by
agreeing to accept the inclusion of
Ireland within the British empire.

O'Connor said the intention was
to restore to the army its old vol
unteer constitution, under which it
elected its own executive. The con-
oNA1uIAOh was c1OdnuOuSu "Acu IHS
Dali Eireann was established as
the Republican government, and
the army swore allegiance to it as
such.
Mulcahy, O'Connor said, had
pledged himself in the Dali to
maintain the army as a Republi-
can organization, but the pledge
had been violated by the invitations
given to the members of the army
to form the nucleus of the army
of the Free State, which, O'Connor
declared, subverted the republic.
He said the army convention will
be held on Sunday, as there was nc
government in Ireland at presen1
to which the army owed allegiance
A resolution will be submitted tC
the convention, O'Connor said, re-
newing allegiance to the Irish re-
public and establishing an execu-
tive entitled to issue orders to the
Irish Republican army, which
would then repudiate control by
the Dali

GIRL
OF CALIFORNIA
BEATS UP COP
Then Jury Clues Her
$4,000 for False
Arrest.
BY ALFRED LINDSLEY,

Consolidated Press Correspondent.
Copyright, 1922, by The Argus)
Eureka, Calf, March 22.-Mixed
juries believe in woman's rights
even her right to walk home from
church on a Sunday morning and
whistle as she walks. A jury of
seven men and five women has
awarded Miss Janet Sumter, %, and
progressive in her ideas, a verdict
of $4,000 damages for false arrest.
The jury took cognizance of the
fact that the whistling church-goer
resisted arrest to the full extent of
her physical ability. Policeman
John Frazer, against whom the YER
dict was rendered, thought that his
severely barked shins and his ruff
fed dignity had been penalty enough
for his misguided efforts to main
tain the peace and sacredness of
the Sabbath against the "Whistlin'
Blues" But the jury thought 9TH
erwise and the patrolman and his
bondsmen have been mulcted in
consequence.
Whistles on Sunday.
1t seems that Miss Sumter, one
beautiful Sunday last summer was
returning from church, and filled
with the joy of living on such a
wonderful day, walked down the
middle of the street whistling. An
automobile mechanic, George Meek
in, accompanied by Mrs. Meekin,
saw the girl and rushed to the sta
tion house to spread the alarm.
Policeman Frazer dashed to the
rescue of community law and or
der. The Meekins dashed with
him. They encountered Miss Sun
ter at the entrance to her home. The
policeman Indignantly ordered the
young lady to retire to her room
and mediate upon her sins. Miss
Sumter met this challenge by an
nouncing she was going to whistle
some more. She proclaimed aloud
her very decided views concerning
the rights of American citizenship
under the nineteenth amendment.
Blacks Mans Eye.
Then came the attempted arrest
and something akin to a cyclone.
The policeman says he was badly
battered Meekin got black eye.
Mrs. Meekin was sent at one time
during the battle to the police sta
ton for reinforcements and testi-
fed that at the time she left the
scene. Miss Sumter. who weighs lis
pounds, had both the policeman and
her husband down and almost out.
Miss Sumter sued for $4,000 but is
content with two.
