DUBLIN, April 4—Flying columns of the Irish republican army are of- ficially reported to be operating in Fermanagh, Armagh, Tyrone, Kil- dare and Queens counties. There has been much destruction of roads, and in many cases intimidation has been re- sorted to. The columns finvariably disappear on the approach of crown forces, the official reports say. A fight occurred last night in the hills near Dundrum, four miles soutn of Dublin. Crown forces had proceed- ed to the hills in lorries to investigate reports of firing. They found twenty armed men, some of whom, aftep fir- ing at the military, mingled with women and children’ who were pic- nicking. For that reason the crown forces refrained from using their ma- chine guns. They pursued the others, however, who were escaping to another hill, and shot two. The remainder set fire to the shrubbery on the hillside and escaped in the smoke screen. Bombs Thrown in Belfast. BELFAST, April 4.—Belfast this I first experience of | |3 vhen two were hurl ] arding the Ulste -n. Bainbridge, in command of the troops in Ulster, is a frequent visitor.

BRITISH PROPAGANDISTS NOW IN OPEN, WALSH SAYS Council for Irish Comments on Statements Issued by Brit- ish Embassy. Following closely on his demand that Ambassador Geddes appear be- fore the unofficial committee of one hundred investigating condi- tions in Treland and produce evi- dence claimed to be held purporting to show that the findings of the committee were without foundation, Frank P. Walsh, counsel for the “Irish republic,” yesterday declared that during the great war Great Britain had prevented the publish- ing of t5. Declaration of American Indg ‘o1 rable surprise has been expressed that the British embassy in Washington has issued through the press two public statements to the people of America within the past week,” said Mr. Walsh. “It has been stated that this is a departaure from the traditional silence and aloofness of the diplomatic repre- sentatives of the British empire. This departure is more apparent than real. British agents have been con- tinually active in trying to mould public opinion in America, especially with regard to the Irish question. What causes the _surprise now is | & that the end of the gréat war and the change of administration in ‘Washington have forced the British official propagandists into the open. “During the war this was not necessary, because®the necessity for close co-o n with our allies, and especially with Great Britain, was used as a cloak to suppress anything at all unfavorable to Great Britain. The suppression was carried out by the United States government. Eyen the Declaration of Independence was banmedl through this secret co-opera- tion between the British and Ameri- can governments.” Mr. Walsh quoted from Representa- tive Clyde Kelly's book a story of Mrs. ‘William Wolff Smith's fruitless effort to have a folder containing the Decla- ration of American Independence printed by the War Department, in which it is claimed that after many evasive replies Mrs. Smith was finally told by the officer in charge that the ‘War Department had decided that the printing of such a folder would be unwise, because it- would be an act of discourtesy to “our friends ihe British,” and for that and other rea- sons copies of the Declaration of In- dependence would not be issued from the printing office maintained by the War Department of the United States government. KELLY CHARGE DENIED. ———— ‘War Department Never Acted on Declaration of Independence. The War Department, so far as ‘available records show, never offi- cially took any action to discourage publication of the Declaration of In- dependence, it was stated today. The incident referred to by Representa- tive Kelly, it was explained, may have arisen from the unofficial action by same officer at the War Depart- ment, but nothing has begn learned 80 far.to show this. It was intifhated today that some investigation to determine the author- ity for Representative Kelly's state- ments may be made under the direc- tion of Secretary of War- Weeks. POWDER CAR BLOWS UP.
