THE IRISH QUESTION
(Buffalo Evening News)


The British Labor government
is striving earnestly to solve the
boundary disnute in Ireland. A
special committee largely made up
Of statesmen from the dominions
now is considering what the
crown governments powers are in
the matter-what further it can do
to compose the differences between
the Irish Free State and Ulster.
The treaty between Great Bri-
tain and the Irish Free State pro-
vides for the creation of COM
mission of three members - one
from each of the Irish divisions
and the third from the United
kingdom-to pass upon the bound
airy question. North Ireland has
refused to name a commissioner.
1t goes so far as to question the
right of the British government to
make a treaty with the Free State.
The committee sitting in Lon
don has been asked by Premier
Macdonald to decide whether the
boundary commission could func-
JIOH WItuOUC OlSCcI 5 WcNlDcI oulp,
possibly with Canadian or an
Australian acting for North Ire
land.
This is as generous suggestion
as it is possible in the circumstan-
ces to advance. Throughout Mac
Donald has shown marked con-
sideration for Ulster. He cannot
permit this boundary question to
remain open indefinitely. To do so
would be to invite further trouble
in ireland. The British govern
ment would be accused by Dublin
of not fulfilling a treaty obligation.
That would be fresh ammunition
for De Valera and his republican
forces. The whole structure of
the Free State might come tumb-
ling down and civil war might de-
velcp in Ireland, the South against
the North.
If the Ulster leaders have any
sense of responsibility. they will
bow to the inevitable and meet the
terms of the treaty.

&hochn8l&A

Karl Whitney, I think my husband
is contemplating giving to Leslie a
much larger share of his property
than that which he gives to our
youngest daughter. Probably he will
divide the entire estate into three
equal parts, after taking out my
share, giving one part to Alice, one
to you, and one to little John. That
division would have my approval, as
you know that Karl Whitney is i'm
mensely wealthy, and Alice will have
no need Of anything that We can
give her.
I am not trying to say, John, that
you need any money. Both my hus-
band and myself have looked with
great pride at your splendid indie
pendence, and your, father-in-law
has remarked many times that while
he would be glad to help you in any
way, he is also sincerely glad that
you have worked out your own prob
lens in your own way and never
asked his help.
Leslie does not seem very we'll.
notice with great anxiety that she is
much thinner than she was when
she was in New York. l think I
accused her of trying to reduce, but
she assures me she has not been do
ing anything of the kind. She seems
quite listless, as though almost any
action was great effort to her.
Both her father and I are quite
worried about her.
l think she is lonely for her boy,
although she has not mentioned 60
ing home. She is great comfort to
her father, who is rather disgruntled
over the fact that Alice saw fit to
marry Karl without telling us she
was going to do So.
Let me know when you are COM
ing. We will await it with great
pleasure. "~
Lovingly. your mother,

New York, Sept. 2.-Atlantic City,
watering summer resort Of the east,
is suffering the worst business de-
preston in II years, while New
York is enjoying an exorbitant sum-
mer boom.
New York, although never logical
~ considered as summer resort,
always draws numerous crowds of
|sightseers during the vacation, sea-
son. People who in their youth have
vowed to "see New York or bust"
take their yearly two weeks fun
period to see the sights of great
town.
But in New York their presence
is scarcely noted They stop at the
more popular = transient and side
street hotels, admitting they would
rather spend their money doing
things than spending all of it for
hotel accommodations.
Yesterday talked to four Indiana
girls making their first trip to New
York. In the winter. they are en-
|ployed as school teachers, They were
pathetically disappointed in the city.

LETTER FROM MRS. JOSEPH
GRAVES HAMILTON TO JOHN
ALDEN PRESCOTT

My dear John: was very much
disappointed to receive your tele-
gram, and cannot tell you how
sorry l am that business has de-
tanned you for the moment from
coming over here. Leslie's father
has been fretting a, good deal be-
cause he has not been able to see
you. He seems to feel that he has
many things Of Importance to dis
cuss with you.
think, John, that my husband
has just about come to the conclu-
sion tried to make him come to
before we went abroad. think he
is contemplating very seriously re-
firing from business. With both his
daughters happily and comfortably
married, he seems to feel that he
has no more need of piling up mon
ey for just ourselves.
Of course this retirement has
many good and many bad points. As
you know, my husband is self
made man, and l am not sure that
having nothing that he must do will
prove very ~irksome to a man of his
active temperament. l have noticed
too many men who had worked hard
all their lives who after shaking off
all care of business, became either
morose or did not live very long, not
to make ME somewhat anxious about
this step. On the other hand, Jo-
seph has altogether too much to
think of now, and he has broken
down under it. -
l was in hopes, dear boy, that you
would come over and advise him.
l do not know that you know it,
John, but your father-in-law takes a
great. deal Of stock in your judg-
ment, and I wish you could see your
way clear to come into the business
with him. Since Alice has married

The fictional picture imbedded in
their grasping imaginations was de-
stroyed with reality. In the few
days they were here they scratched
merely the surface of things. They
did not have time nor opportunity to
delve into the places and things that
make New York interesting and dis
tinctive. ..:,
Thus many people make sum-
mer vacation trip to New York and
return home to browbeat the city in
no uncertain terms. Probably it is
just as we'll.
l know on my first trip here, I de-
cided it was the worlds worst fail
ure and that not one line Of its ad-
vertised charms was a reality.
But nowI have changed my mind.

Hon. S. c. Green Dies in
Whittier California

Friends of Hon S C. Green, late of
Montezuma county, will regret to learn
of his death last week at Whittier,
California.
The late Mr.. Green was until recently
prominent in Montezuma county politics,
and represented that county in the goth
general assembly of the state legisla-
ture. He was a Baptist minister by
profession, and an ardent Republican in
politics. He had been failing in health
for several years, and moved to the
coast some time ago in hopes of being
able to lower his high blood pressure.
Mr.. Green was the father of Mrs.
Russell Berry of this city. Mrs. Berry

grave condition of her father, when

Mayors Proclamation.

In these days of unrest. suffering and
transition, when the order of things
is passing, attention needs to be called
to the Importance of conserving and
strengthening the integrity of the home,
especially those ties that bind father
and son together. No city has a more
valuable asset than its boys and the
dominent character-building influence
in the life of boy should be that
ernanating from the home.
Therefore, l. Andy S. Miller. Mayor
of the Town of Dolores, hereby designate
the week beginning November Ninth
and ending November Sixteenth to be
known in this Town as Father and Son
Week, and earnestly urge its recogni-
tion IN all ways that shall emphasize
the ideal therein expressed. Let our
churches, schools, homes, and all other
agencies for the up-building of the
community arrange to have fitting
exercises which shall encourage and
emphasize the sacred relationship. to
the end that the father will become
more the companion and guide of the
son. and the son come more to appre-
ciate the value of the fathers associa-
tion and counsel.
In Witness Whereof, have hereto
set my hand and affixed the Executive
Seal this 28th day of October in the
