Mutiny In the Free
State Armg Spreads;
Cabinet DemOrdLized
Especial to The Daily worker

DUBLIN, Ireland, March 11.--Con-
sternation reigns in government
quarters as the mutiny in the army
spreads. It is now general all over
Ireland. The big barracks in Tip
perary is deserted by the officers and
men who took their equipment with
them. The same is true Of the Wex-
ford barracks.
The minister of Commerce, Joseph
McGrath, has resigned as a protest
against "muddling" with the military
situation. Civil war looms. General
Owen O'Duffy Is placed at the head
Of an emergency defense force.
The reactionary labor faker,
Thomas Johnson, has protested
against military dictatorship Of the
revolving army. He did rot fight
against the dictatorship Of the Free
State government.
The republicans may take. out their
rifles again and make another bid for
the Republic. II is felt that the
British Labor government mould not
dare send troops to bolster up the
Free State.
The Communist International has
recently issued an appeal to British
labor urging them TO insist that the
Labor government declare for the
freedom Of Ireland, India end Egypt.
A fresh crisis in Ireland viii add
to the responsibility Of Ramsay Mac
Donald and the overthrow Of The
Free State government would again
make the Irish question n thorn in
the side Of British imperial ambi-
tons.

KHAN SUPPORTS
JOHNSON BILL,
SAYSLAGUARDIA
Speaks for Council of
Foreign Born

PITTSBURGH, March I1.-Charg-
ing that the Johnson immigration
Bill was dictated by the Ku Klux
Khan and by the employing inter-
ests who wish to shackle the foreign
born workers, Congressman LaGuar-
dia brought an audience in the Labor
Temple to enthusiasm at a mass
meeting organized by the Western
Pennsylvania Council for the Pro-
lection Of Foreign Born, federation
Of so powerful organizations with
100000 members.
LaGuardia warned the throng be-
fore him that the danger was ser
ious and that "if the johnson bill
was to be voted on tomorrow in the
house it would carry" He urged
organised effort by organized labor
and the foreign born groups to ere
ate such tide of sentiment that the
johnson Bill and the others like it
would be overwhelmed.
Foreigner Has Changed.
"As long as the foreign born
workers were meek and submissive,
worked long hours in sweatshops
for a few dollars a week, raised
large families and sent them to
work in the factory instead of to
school and to college and lived in
poor houses we were good immi-
grants But as soon as we begin to
organize into unions, raise our
wages, educate our children, then we
are no longer good immigrants; we
are 'bolshevik.'
1.-THE industrial and social devel-
opment Of America has been pos
sible only thru the sweat and blood
and toll of the immigrant Behind
all this propaganda is desire for
profits. The great employing inter-
ests want to continue the exploita-
ton Of the immigrant but they see
that he is becoming conscious Of his
rights and is organizing and there
fore he wants to shackle him.
II can remember when in New
York in the needle trade Sicilian
girls worked ten hours a day for
IS a week. We went out into that
great unorganized mass of antagon-
lied, competing nationalities and or
ganized them into the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers of America and
raised the standard Of wages and
conditions until today these workers
have a union scale that compares
with the best. This is why the en-
ploying interests are fighting to get
this johnson Bill enacted"
The chairman Of the meeting was
Attorney Anthony Lucas and the
secretary Of the council is A. Rostrom
of 227 Shaier ST., Pittsburgh, Pa,
to whom all contributions or re-
quests for information should be
sent.
Conference March 80.
The next meeting Of the delegate
conference will be held Sunday,
March 80, p. M, at Walton Hall,
Stanwix St., Pittsburgh. 0rganiza-
tons should send delegates from all
over Western Pennsylvania to this
meeting with credentials and make
this a permanent organization to
protect the rights of the foreign
born.
Labor sentiment is believed to have
been greatly changed by the facts
brought out at the meeting. Two
weeks ago reactionary labor leaders
obtained endorsement of the vicious
immigration bills which Gompers
and employing interests are support
ing.

Leopold, Boy Slayer.
Charmed Wild Birds

DETROIT, June 3.--An epoch in
American ornithology was marked
ten months ago by Nathan Leopold,
Jr., young graduate student at the
University of Chicago, who is held
with Richard Loeb, in connection
with one of the strangest murders in
Illinois criminal history.
In a world of everyday affairs,
young Leopold's accomplishment
passed unnoticed. To the profess
sional bird scientist 1t came as one
of the most important pathological
works in recent years.
Leopold's feat was the discovery
and filming of Kirkland or Pine
land warbler was known to nest only
in northern Michigan. 1t was classed
among the wild creatures now extinct
or on the verge of extinction.
Ten months ago Leopold uncover
ed its nest and found two fledgling

lers, rearing its young. The Kirt-

ing of small jackpine's branches.
One thousand feet of film of the
birds were taken by Leopold, includ-
ing pictures OF the parent feeding
from his hand.
A few months later. Leopold pre-
sented this film together with pa
per before the American ornithologi-
cal institution in Boston.

thirty or more affidavits from resi-

CONGRESS- ADJOURNMENT
FIGHT IN THE SENAIE

WASHINGTON, June 3.-Senti-
ment in the senate against adjourn
ment of congress next Saturday, as
proposed in the concurrent resolu-
tion already approved by the House.
rallied today around the substitute
resolution introduced by Senator La
Toilette. of Wisconsin. the Republi :
can insurgent leader, proposing that.
Instead, congress recess then until
July 7.
The proposal OF the Wisconsin,
senator was presented yesterday
shortly after the House had speedily
approved, by a vote of 221 to 157.
the resolution offered by Represe,f-
tative Longworth, Republican leader.
providing for adjournment at r.
NJ. Saturday.
Senator La Toilette proposed that
congress re-convene July to take
up a specified program of legislation
covering agricultural and reclama
ton relief and transportation ques-
tions. He indicated that he was pre-
pared to press these views In a,
speech on the floor, but was said to
have received little encouragement
in his move from Republican and
Democratic leaders with whom he
mad conferred. some OF MS a&6Q-
ciates also were of the opinion that
there would be no organized effort
to delay passage of the concurrent
resolution.
Although Senator La FoIlette'S
resolution was in order today, lead
ers had planned to hold up action
on the adjournment proposal pend
ing enactment of the urgent de-
ficiency bill providing funds for ex-
ecuting the bonus law, and they
were uncertain whether either would
be taken up today. Indications were.
however. that there would be sum
cient non-partisan strength TO put
the adjournment resolution through
the senate just as there was in the
House, since the opposition there
which included 95 Democrats and
SO Republicans, was described as
representing the views as to the need
for relief legislation similar to those
held by Senator La Toilette and his
supporters.
