MISS MACSW|NEY
TALKS OF IRELAND
Sister of Martyr Mayor of
Cork Discusses Aims of
Republic Advocates.

Miss Mary MacSwiney, sister of
Terrence MacSwiney. martyred lord
mayor of Cork, spoke at two gather
ings here yesterday. She addressed
the National Woman's Party and also
a gathering of Irish-Americans at the
Playhouse 1914 N street. Sean T.
O'Kelly, envoy of the Irish Republic
to the United States, also addressed
the latter gathering which was under
the auspices of the Kelvin Barry
Council of the American Association
for the Recognition of the Irish Re-
public.
No Sex Problems in Ireland.
Miss MacSwiney told the Woman's
Party meeting that there were no
sex problems in Ireland, but that the
men and women stood together in
the national fight. Women of Ire
land always have had rights such as
the women here are still fighting for;
they always had the right to hold
property.
At the Playhouse meeting she
charged that England forced the war
on Ireland, and pointed out that in
dependence could not be subject to
the ballot box. Persons have certain
rights which they cannot vote away,
she said For instance, they cannot
vote themselves into slavery. Eng
land she charged is making it cheap
for those who want to get away
from Ireland. thereby coaxing the Re-
publican vote away. A vote obtained
under duress, she said, is invalid.
Says Republic still Lives.

public still lives. He said the people
