IRELAND NOT
IN STATE OF
DECISION
Highest Court of Land Gives
Decision Affecting Pris-
oner's Liberty

Dublin, Aug. la state of war
does not exist in Ireland. the court
Of appeals decided today in giving
its judgment in the case Of Mrs. Nora
Connolly O'Brien, reversing the opin-
ion of the master Of the rolls of the
chancery division who held that Civil
War did exist in Ireland on June 15.
Today's decision was looked forward
to with great interest and its pro-
nouncement caused much excitement
as its decision held the fate of thou
sands of prisoners held by the gov
ernment Under the plea of military
necessity.
+ The Attorney General made strenu.
Gus efforts to convince the court
that the rekS1lion was not over and
that it might break out again but
the court was emphatic in IT. deci-
sion that state Of war does not
exist and the government has no au-
thority to deny it's privilege to citi-
zens of q writ of habreas corpus.
Despite this decision it is consid-
cred unlikely that there will be any
general release of prisoners as the
government has passed through al
most all the stages in the Dali and
sent bill legally authorizing it to
continue Imprisonment and other re-
pressive measures for three months.

nized him. The chief of police de-

for large number Of the young men

every time he appears in public" de-
clared Rev. Strutz. 90
"The fact that these young men

A representative Of the federal De.

today investigating conditions with
reference to a possible I. w. w. har-
vest strike. He sought out state and
local officials for q conference on
the subject.
The state NftaNsrth Dakota, said
withheld, Mas two good laws with
which to deal with any situation
which may arise. One of them is a
j. 1913 law, he said, and the other the
revised vagrancy law enacted by the
1923 legislature. Both, he said, could
be used to curb activities Of l. w. w.
agitators who avoid work and seek
to foment trouble
Between 400 and 500 "wobblies'
will come into North Dakota in the
next few days, because Of the influx
of several thousand workers expected
to take advantage of the IS rate ef-
fective today, he said. The "wobblies'
will be chiefly organizers.
The Department of Justice Agent
who already has visited Fargo, Grand
Forks and Minot, displayed an l. W.
w. "dues book" which was obtained
from an organizer. 1t contains 25
cent stamps, each for. one months
dues. According to the Book, the dues
are to 60 to the Chicago headquar-
ters.
While there have been some I. W.
w. organizers here no trouble has re-
suited The only case Of violence re-
ported is in the western part of the
state where one man was said ia
have been thrown from train.
