S. SENATOR’S SON STOCKHOLDER IN JAP BANK Investigation today developed the sensational fact that Harry B. Jones, son of United States Senator Wesley L.

Effect of the hunger strike of Mac- Sweeney upon the political situation in both Ireland and England was be- lieved today to be slowly breaking down official opposition to his re- leare, The approaching death of the lord mayor, who has been on a hunger strike since in Brixton prison for more than two weeks, has created a serious crisis in Ireland. Radical and labor elements in England are beginning to make it their fight. The MacSweeney case, coupled with the threatened coal strike, led to re- ports today that Premier ree had decided to curtail his acation” in Lucerne and return to London, that the government would release MacSweeney on the pretext of having contracted tuberculosis, thus reliev- ing the situation without relaxing its announced determination to release no more hunger strikers. The latest word from Brixton prison today was that the lord mayor was in a semi-conscious condition and so weak that doubt was ex pressed of his recovery even should he receive his release.
