in Ireland is at very low level,
without any indication Of a turn for
the better. The policy of the Red
international Of Trade Unions is
more honored in the breach than in
the observance, and since the Com
munist Party was liquidated, there is
no Communist propaganda being put
out. On the contrary, the bitter fac
tional fight between Earlin and his
rivals has degenerated into the kind
of billingsgate that became classical
when Daniel O'Connell carried on his
famous barging match with Biddy
Moriarty. g,a .s...
What is needed in Ireland is the
building up of a left wing in the
Transport Union under Communist
Leadership, the same kind of work
that the British Minority Movement
is accomplishing In England and the
Trade Union Educational League in
the United States.

'LONGWORTH and
MADDEN OUT FOR
The SPEAKERSHIP
Alice Roosevelt Supports
Her Husband
BY LAURENCE TODD.
Federated Press staff corrsspondent)


WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-Between
Martin P. Madden Of Chicago and
Nick and Alice Longworth Of Cincin-
natl, is being fought out the dominant
issue before the members Of the newly
elected house-the issue as to wheth-
er Madden or Nick shall be speaker
of the house. One might almost say
that it is a question of Madden or
Nick-and-Alice, for the Roosevelt
family is right in the forefront Of
the battle.
Madden is old and hard and
wealthy. He had a successful career
as one Of the grey wolves" of the
Chicago city council long ago, and by
reason Of his economical use or his
earnings and investments during is
years in congress, he is now safe and
respected as BELTS the national
spokesman for the first ward,
Madden Was Lucky.
Longworth was born rich, became
the protege Of Boss Cox, who con-
trolled the vote of the Cincinnati ten
derloin, and came to congress two
years earlier than Madden. He has
lost only one term since. In 1906 he
married Alice, the daughter Of Presi-
dent Roosevelt. Since then he has
been considered in the light of SON
in-law, or as the husband of the most
astute and tireless woman politician
in the capital But he has come up
by force of seniority in the house ma
chine until now he and Madden are
on equal terms in the speakership con-
test.
Maddenites say that the republican
party, which T. r. tried to destroy in
1912, has heaped enough honors on
his children and their relations. Young
Ted has been a member of the New
York legislature, assistant secretary
of the navy, and candidate for gov
ernor Of New York. Now Coolidge is
trying to find room for him in the cab.
met, just because the Roosevelts have
to be cared for as national obliga-
ton. And Coolidge has also taken on
Douglas Robinson. first cousin of Ted
and Mrs. Longworth, for an assistant
secretaryship. In Chicago's first ward
they say this is enough; Nick and
Alice should wait until a self-helped
alderman has had a chance.
Nick Is Safer.
Longworthites point out that Nick
is a safer man than Madden from the
party standpoint. He never has refus
ed to take orders from higher up, and
his charges have been reasonable. He
is socially entertaining, and Mrs
Longworth, as the wife of a speaker
would create real social tone in The
new administration. 1t needs one.
Moreover, Nick plays the fiddle

PEOPLE AND CHARACTERS
BY DR.. Frank Crane

tn HERE are certain well-known characters
upon the stage. There are the young
lovers. the hero, the villain, the inge-
nue., the banker, the sot, and so on. When
one of them, appears You know perfectly
we'll how he is going to perform
There are certain types in novels. After
the first few lines of introduction you could
write the rest of the tale yourself.
And the curious part Of it is that il you
find that any particular character on the
stage or in the story does not act precisely
as he is supposed to act, the critics be1abor
the author, and you say the book is not true
to life.
But tell me, did you ever in real life see
any characters Are you character your.
self? Answer: No; you and the rest of the
cumberers of this earth are persons.
The difference is that Character does the
expected; Person is quite as apt to do the
unexpected. Outside of fiction and the mad
house, nobody does as they naturally should.
That is one of the joys of existence; it is
the interesting element in being alive To
know that you need not take soup if you
don't want it, and you even do not have to
take it II you do want it. To go by the right
side of Pine street as you walk down to your
work in the morning instead of by the left
side, and that not for any reason but for no
reason to do this that, and the other thing
principally because others expect you and
you expect yourself to act quite on the con-
trary; that is living.
1t is not freedom to do as we please, that
is liberty; real liberty consists in doing what
we don't please-
A Person is as unchartable as the wind.
Psychology is as full of the accidental as
meterology.
In books, systems, morals, and the drama
virtue is rewarded and vice punished, Among
Persons vice is often rewarded and virtue
plays smash. See Ibsen and Bernard Shaw.
There was once an author (this is par
able, it is true, not fact) who set down to
write a play that should portray real HUI
man Being. He first wrote it in novel form.
No magazine would buy it; no publisher
would accept it. All the manuscript readers
said it was improbable, untrue, vague, and
didn't fit in anywhere. SO the writer had it
printed at his own expense. Then he found
himself in the condition of Thoreau who said
he had a library of 900 volumes, 500 of
which he wrote himself.
Then he made a play Of it. No manager
would undertake it. Having some money
remember this story is not fact) the author
staged the play himself hired a troupe of
actors, and sent free tickets to people enough
to fill the house. Only one Of the men, who
came bought a 50-Cent seat.
The play never finished. Half way through

The Irony of 1t

ITHERE is a grim touch of irony in the
House resolutions, passed by virtu
ally unanimous vote, authorizing the
President to eXpend as much as one hum
dred thousand dollars flor the purpose of
employing the necessary attorneys and
agents in instituting and carrying on any
suits or other proceedings, either civil or
criminal, or to take any other steps deemed
necessary in relation to the cancellation of
any leases OF oil lands in former naval re-
serves, in the prosecution Of any person or
persons guilty of any infraction of the laws

may take to protect. the interests OF the
United States and the people thereof in
connection Herewith" 1t is added per-
haps with unintended significance, that
"any counsel employed by the President
under authority of this resolution shall have
full power to carry on said proceedings, any
law to the contrary Notwithstanding
= Readers unapprised of the disclosures

might well ask why so large an appropria-
ton for retaining special counsel should be
considered needful. Why not leave the
prosecution to the regular forces of the De-
partment Of Justice? Representative Gar
ret, Democratic leader, appropriately moved
to amend the resolution by inserting the
words, whereas, the President has expressly
intended to employ counsel other than those
of the Department of Justice" This was
lost by vote Of one hundred and thirty
seven to one hundred and twenty-five, the
Democrats voting almost soldly for it, and
the. Republicans almost solidly against it.
Nevertheless, the idea Of the amendment is
implicit in the resolution itself. For the
prosecution of what appears to the Ameri-
can public as one of the darkest scandals
in their governments history, the President
evidently cannot rely on the office of his
own Attorney General, but must be authpr-
lied to turn elsewhere for effective aid
