WALSH Chairman, American Commission on | Irish Independence (From official report on “Conditions in Ireland With Demand for In vestigation by the Peace. Confer ence,” signed by Chairman Walsh and Edward F. Dunne.) Ireland, for the first time in more than 100 years, is absolutely cut off from England, its regularly elected members of parliament having, with few exceptions, refused to go to Westminster, py are attempting under the guns the English soldiers, to hald prderty sessions in the Mansion House, in Dublin. There is an Irish military ganization of approximately 200, 900 men of fighting age, poorly equipped as to arms, and without artillery They appear to be well officered, and seemingly maintain a perfect organization, engaging in daily drills and frequent maneuvers. Upon all sides may be heard declarations that they are ready to fight and die for the right of self-determination, no matter how great the odds against them may be. The killing by the British govern ment of these 200,000 men would not settle the Irish problem. Those be- low the fighting age, and even the | children of Ireland, are singing “The Soldier's ." shouting, “Long enlist in the ment, revolutionary move Education If England ever had an educa tional system in Ireland, it has com pletely broken down. The Irish people are taxed more for the support of the police and constabulary, altho the country {s practically crimeless in the ordinary sense, than they are for the main tenance of the whole educational sys tem of Ireland, including the upkeep of the National university, Trinity college, as well as all the primary and other schools in the land. School teachers in the primary schools are paid as low as $4 per week. No system of hygiene or sanita- tion has been installed. ‘The teeth of practically all the children are in de-| cay, and respiratory and throat trou- bles exist to an alarming degree. Lack of decent clothing and un der-nourishment is keeping thou sands of children out of school. Social Life In the city of Dublin alone there are 20,000 families, on an average of five to each family, lving in one room tenements. Infant mortality is appalling. Destitution and hunger are rife. Municipal bodies and private per- sons are attempting to extend relief, but all such activities must have the sanction of the English government, which is difficult, if not impossible to obtain. Land Laws The much vaunted land laws have not appreciably aided in decreasing poverty in the agricultural districts, Leaving out of the question the manifold defects and hardships in the operations of the law, all the farmer should gaim-by his owner ship of the land is taken away from him by unjust taxes, When the first land law was passed in 1881, the direct per capita tax in Ireland was about $6 per head. At the present time the direct taxation, imposed by Tritish law, amounts annually to the enormous sum of $45. The indirect taxation of the people cannot be @ccurately estimated, but is higher proportion. ately than in any other country in the world. ‘The age-old curse of absentee land- lordiem still cuts deeply into the economic heart of Ireland. Hun- dreds of thousands of its most fertile acres are owned by foreigners. As quickly as the rich crops are garn- ered they are taken out of the coun- try, and this immense food supply and almost infinite source of wealth is lost to her forever. Engtand has absolutely cut off Ire- land from the outside commerce of the world, allows no ship to come transatlantic to her ports, and thus controls the prices of the necessaries of life for her inhabitants. This combined system of taxation and monopoly automatically takes away the legitimate profit from the PLANE RUSHES SERUM; SAVES WOMAN’S LIFE SAN FRANCISCO, July 8 —The airplane became an angel of life for | Mrs. J. Koenig of Stockton last Sat urday. She was on the verge of death from rheumatism of the heart when her physician, Dr. Six, undertook a restorative for which he needed a serum. The serum could not be obtained in Stockton nor in Sacramento. With each moment precious, Dr. Six finally found the serum in San Francisco and engaged B. M, Spencer of the Pacific Avia tion company to carry the medicine from here to Stockton by aerial flight.
