Sims, acknow- ledging receipt of congratulations from the Belfast comrades of the great war on his recent speech be- fore the English speaking union in London in which he criticised activ ties of Sinn Fein sympathizers in the United States was made public here today. The letter dated July 11 reads as tollows: “I can assure you it is a matter of great graitfication to me to find that the loyal men of-Ulster hold the same opinions as I do as <o the ‘English speaking peoples. It may interest you' to know that practically. all the reputable mewspapers.in the United States are now in thorough approval of ‘our condemnation. of the activi- ties of Sinn Fein sympathizers in the United States. ““This has been brought about by & remarkable expression of opinion by American people in the form of show- ers of letters and celegrams to all concerned. _ It woula seem as thoush the incident were about to be trans- formed into an issue. At all events, it will apparently have a considerable effect on the future. It is my hope that it will exereige a very consider- able influence upon the relations be- tween our countries.’ CHOIR BOYS' OUTING 15 From St. Mark's Church Left This Morning for Trip to Camp Wash- ington, LaReside.

Not Be Necessary to Wait for Rclease to McKeown Before Irish Republican Parliament Can Meet. Dublin, Aug. 8.—(By the Associat- ed Press)—Eamon De Valera, the re- publican leader’ discussing with news- papermen today the case of John J. McKeown, declared he did not believe the refusal to release McKeown with the other imprisoned members of the Irish republican parliament represent- ed the considered decision .of = the British government. It was done, he thought by subordinates who based their action on technicalities. Erskne Childers, who is associated with the Sinn Fein leader declared to- day the statement that no meting of the Irish republican parliament could be held until McKeown was released was wholly unfounded. Such a state- ment was published this morning as an official Sinn Fein pronouncement. The expectation prevails in official circles that the reply of Permier Lloyd George from Paris regarding Me- Keown’s case will be prompt and fa- vorable.
