DUBLIN, March 1.-THE patss ~
three Irish prisons opened wide vas-
terday for 20 Irishmen who were sew
ing long jail sentences for no1iticaI
offenses and who became free men
thanks to the change in government
with the election Of Eamonn de Valera
as President.
A crowd of many thousands outside
Arbour Hill Prison, where De Valera
himself once was incarcerated cheered
wildly as II men appeared at the nor
tails. The released inmates were hoiSted
to shoulders and carried to waiting
automobiles.
"Welcome Home"
The cars. adorned with large tri-
colors, carried signs reading: wei
come Home, Republican Prisoners"
There was great parade through the
streets of Dublin between rows of
cheering throngs, and the prisoners
were taken to a hotel for a public
reception.
George Gilmore, one CT the men re-
leased, was sentenced to five wears sew
eral months ago in connection with the
discovery of dump of guns Gilmore
bore obvious traces Ct his ordeal
Throughout his term he refused 10 wear
prison Clothes, making 1t necessary that
he remain in bed, and he was very
weak
Yes, it was tough he said but It
was worth it. The republic isn't dead
yet"
The crowd cut short his words
Friends, cheering loudly, lifted him to
their shoulders and bore him avav.
Another Of the men released was
Frank Ryan, editor of the Republic,
who was under sentence for three
months for contempt of court.
Others to Be Freed.
Two prisoners were released from
MARLBORO prism and one from Mountioy.
1t was expected that others would be
released within a few days and that the
public safety act which authorized the
military tribunal by which many po-
litical offenders were sentenced. would
be repealed by an order in council be-
fore the adjournment of the Dali for
Holy week.
The release Of the prisoners took
place before De Valera had been in Of
fee "A hours, and apparently it was his
first act.
Arbour Hill has been used for po-
Htical prisoners for more than 10 years.
Mr.. De Valera was there in 1928, when
an American commission visited him
to take evidence. He refused to recognize

son why unemployment continues
I stopped boarding because, think,
boarded money does not give its
owner any good benefits. Hoarded
money should be used now to buy
furniture, clothes and other furnish
ings while prices are low. That is
what I have done. BY spending
boarded money, which otherwise
would be useless in aiding industry,
unemployment would vanish and
good times would be here again.
That is another reason why I have
put money that I stored away into
circulation again. But the main
reason why have stopped boarding
Is because it benefits me and bene-
fits our country"

Enemy Of Hoarding.

II detest boarding and do the
exact opposite, because:
Spending helps others. MY lit
tie money helps the man who runs
the small business.
''Patriotically speaking, when
spend, am doing my best for my
country, for the small business is
an integral and indispensable part
Of the economic foundation of this
big business country. To keep this
foundation sound. the small busi-
ness must flourish.
"Ethically speaking, it is wrong
to hoard. Is not greed one Of the
seven deadly sins?
mo truly sane person would
hoard, because:
Death (resulting from poverty
caused by unemployment) Is a re-
suit Of boarding. If boarding were
universal, our society would collapse.

no cause for regret"
Hoarding Results Tragical.

children. homes unhappy and some
broken up. Means crime, suffering.
Hoarding means loss of faith. With
out faith life would be failure and
death, too. Savings invested means
more dollars for you and children.

means thousands and millions.

Leads to Destruction.
Il am employed by one of the
Government departments and do
not receive large income, but 1
have been saving a little from time
to time and keeping it in my home.
When the plea by President Hoover
was made to put all idle money
into circulation I did not pay much
attention to it at first Then I be-
gan to think that even though nv
savings were small If every one in
the same situation would put their
money back into circulation it
would add materially to the cause.
Few OF us up to this time have ever
given a thought to the question of
boarding. But when we take it in
the final analysis it is easily seen
that it can lead to destruction and
ruin of our economic principles

Temptations to Spread.
"The question is not Have You
Stopped Hoarding?' but How Can
One Hoard With So Much to Tempt
One to Spend?'
Life being a cycle Of needing and
wanting things, both luxurious and
necessary, it is best not to sacrifice
happiness and contentment by deny
ing oneself in order to hoard.
With prices more attractive than
at any time since before the war;
with merchants searching everywhere
for commodities to please the public,
and manufacturers constantly intro
ducing new devices to make both
work and pleasure more enjoyable,

Hiding Money Found Wrong.

when we realized that strict
economy was no longer stylish and
that boarding seemed criminal we
decided that our plan of a hard
time fund hidden away, was wrong
and unnecessary.
Therefore our first move was to
put cur money into the so-called
baby bonds Our next was to en-
gage a cook from the army of the
unemployed which has left me time
to shop and take advantage OF the
bargains now offered.
Instead Of hoarding for next

Way to Stop Hoarding.

Have you stopped boarding?
You should do so!
IF every family in the United
States would employ one Of the un-
employed every day, there would not
be any cause for boarding.
Put the idle dollars in circula-
ton; the unemployed would have
plenty of work, there would not be
any poverty

Conditions Made Better.

For four years my daughter and
I had been supported by my son and
my sister. Having raised my family
I was not an experienced worker in
anything but housekeeping.
Last Fall I put an advertisement
in The Sunday Star to this effect:
Mother and daughter as cook and
child's nurse.
1--WE got work in nice home, and
besides combined income Of SIPS
a month and board We have released
our family wage earners' money so
that they can live better. buy better

prohibitive while we were not work.
ing.
This all contributes toward en-
ployment Of sales girls and shop
workers.
Some thought we were lowering
our ideals in doing this kind Of
work, but I cannot see it, unless we
do not give the best service possible.
Il would advise people to take a
job, though 1t Is not as dignified as
they are used to, and then put dig
nifty into it.
My daughter and I are able to
buy much more than when we were
living on the dole thus helping the
merchants to take the depression

Money Representing Power.

"A certain amount Of money rep
resents certain amount of power.
That is, with it I can buy some
thing useful, or anything that is
necessary for spiritual or physical
happiness. can let it work for me
by putting it In a bank. or by in
vesting 1t In a sound business. In
every way I gain by putting 1t into
circulation; 1t Is an asset. This
same money can become a liability
by boarding it. 1t might be lost or
stolen. 1t wouldn't bring any in
terest or returns. Therefore, no
patriotic or civic duty is required
Just ordinary common sense to put
idle money into circulation. All my

Harding Is Withholding.
Each time We actually hoard
we are withholding from some one
the necessities Of life. It Is like
putting ones talent into a napkin
and hiding it into the ground, where
it does no one any good. We not
only hurt others by so doing, but
We damage our own characters, for
boarding develops fear complex,
and it has the tendency to make us
selfish and inhuman. When you

Return in Merchandise.
Suddenly realizing that spare
cellars invested in certain so-called
securities had not returned the ex-
pected dividends, my wife and I de-
cided to partake OF some unusual
values in household and other ne
cessities, thereby putting money
into circulation and getting in re-
turn merchandise for which at some
later date we would. in all prob
ability, pay considerable more. In
this manner we feel we are receiv-

tween the real value in times Of
prosperity and the amount expended
at the present time. Furthermore,
We have intrusted a portion. at in
