to the chief of detectives office

mands for more chairs, and
lined his friends up against the
wall much like a coroner's
jury. He would have liked to
have set the stage better, to
have used the lineup room,
which was more like a theater,
but he felt that in the small
office he could better command
the center of things, and he
didn't want to appear too

WHAT BRITAIN
WILL DO CHIEF
IRISH PROBLEM
Last Time independence
Issue Was Raised
Troops Acted.
By United Press

By United Press
DUBLIN. April Introduction
in the dali Of legislation to abolish
the oath Of allegiance to the British
crown again has brought ireland
face to face with an important
question-what is the British gov
eminent going to do?
The republican administration of
canon De Valera is going ahead
with its program for an independent
Ireland without knowing just what
London will do.
Ireland would give a good deal to
know.
The last time the question was
raised, sixteen years ago, England
sent feet of battleships to Dublin.
But that was case of out-and-out
rebellion.
Today the Free State government
seeks to leave the empire by peace
full means.
The crisis between canon de Va
lera and the British government
centers around the oath Of allegi-
ance and a yearly payment to Bri-
tain of S15,000,000 in land annui-
ties.
Thirty years ago the British gov
eminent started buying up the
property Of wealthy land owners in
Ireland and turning the fields over
to Irish tenant farmers. The farm
ers we're to pay for them on the in
stallment plan.
The Free State government for
the last ten years has acted as Bril-
tain's collector in southern Ireland
on the deal But De Valera pro-
posed to pay no more annuities.
In addition he has put in claim
for the $150,000000 the Cosgrave
government paid Britain.
De Valera claims Britain lost the
legal right to collect any more an
nuities when the Free State was
created. He pointed out that III
ster farmers no longer pay them.
Britain claims payment of the
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1932-04-22

annuities is matter of good faith
in business, just as the oath is a
matter of good faith in statesman
ship.
De Valera has been warned by
the English press that abolition of
the oath will violate the treaty
holding the Free State within the
empire.
If the Free state no longer is a
member of the British common
wealth of nations, Free State goods
will pay the new British tariff and
southern Irishmen in England will
become aliens subject to deporta-
tions.
To these possibilities, De Velera
replies that the Free State does not
want to be in the empire.
His opponents say the plan would
be economic suicide.
Irish republicans do not think so,
for although England buys 90 per
cent of Free State exports, Ireland
buys more goods from Great Britain
than Britain buys here.

NEW YORK, April 22.-Times like
these are particularly hard on
youngsters just out of school and
college, trying to get their first jobs.
This period of unemployment will

With those who succeed, I suspect
the sum total will be for the good.
For any one who can find job now,

In these times, hardly a day

Roosevelt turned southwark
into Oregon today, preparatory,
to invading President Hoover S
home State of California for
a stretch Of intensive cam
paigning.
The Democratic nominee will
spend the entire day in oregon,
most Of it in Portland, and to-
night will deliver one Of the major
speeches of his western invasion
there. It will deal with public
utilities and their regulation. It
is a subject in which he is par
ticularly interested and one of
particular interest to the West.
No Democratic Presidential can
didate except Wilson, in 1912,
the year of the great split, has
carried Oregon, but Governor
Roosevelt invaded it today with
assurances from State leaders that
this year it is Democratic terri
tory.
Ripe For Revolt
In Oregon as in Washington
State, the Governor found eco
nomic distress widespread, unem-
ployment rampant, and political
discomfort the order of the day.
The Pacific Northwest, has been
hard hit by the economic storms
of the past few years and accord

Mayor Dore, a Republican, made
frankly Democratic speech last
night in introducing Governor
Roosevelt. He said:
eff Theodore Roosevelt were

The mayor went further. He
declared that if Governor Roose-

he would "humanize the place"
He added:
"And never again will we see
