SIZE OF FUND ALARMING British Uneasy Over Real Use of Big Sum—Matter Taken Up With Washington. BY EDWARD PRICE BELL. By Oabie to The Star and Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1921. LONDON, England, June 17.—What- ever may have been cabled to the United States with reference to the distribution of American relief funds to dependents of the Sinn Feln, or re- strictions on such distribution, the government in Washington fully un- derstands the views of the British government on the entire subject. This understanding I8 the result of ‘informal negotiations. Great Britain has no disposition to prevent American charity from func- tioning on behalf of the dependants of Sinn Feiners or any one else though the government declares that | relief on such a scale as Is proposed in Irelund is entirely unnecessary. As u matter of fact, the fund sought to be obtained for Irish relief is xo large that the government Is uneas; 148 o its real purpose and destinatio o government does not want any | of this fund to help finance the Irish ebellion, whether in the purchase of rms or in promoting Sinn Fein prop- | aganda. In consequence, some form of con- trol over the distribution of Ameri- can money in Ireland undoubtedly will be maintained by the author ties of the crown. Every assurance ! is given. however, that Yunds for ac- tual relief purposes will be neither stopped nor diverted from the ob- jects intended by the donors. DISTRIBUTE FUNDS FREELY.

It was then laid down that {while there would be no restrictions | {on charitable action contributions for ! :ould not be permitted. n has not attempted to jevade that stipulation.
