SINN FEIN LEADER SAYS U. 8. WILL NOT De Valera Meets Moots Justice Danke F, Cohalan, Who Heads Itinerary Committee. Still maintaining silence on how he managed to escape from Ireland, Rdward De Valera, President of the “Irish Republic,” to-day held a suc- cession of receptions in the Waldorf- Astoria, De Valera was brimful of praise | for Ireland, for her patience, for the plans for freedom, but he only smiled when asked to tell how he had es- caped or where he had landed in this country. Rumors had it that he had | Managed to get away from England by using a seaplane which had con- veyed him to @ waiting yacht fn an | unnamed river. In this way, sald the rumor, the Irish President had out- witted British Army and Navy of- | fleers, “It I should deny or confirm all | the methods you newspapermen mre questioning me about," said De Valera, “you would certainly reach the right answer, if only thréugh a | process of elimination, So I must decline to deny or confirm the truth of your surmise.” Because the American people are | which De Valera says are imbyed in | the true Irishman, he does not be- | lieve the*United States Government will interfere with him in his aims so far as this country is concerned, ; When asked whether he was confi- \dent that he would not be molested over here, the Irishman said: | “The Americans are in spirit 1ike | the Irish, I have the utmost confi- dence in the principles actuating the American people, and therefore do not anticipate that the Government here will hinder me.” De Valera discussed at great length the election in December, 1918, He emphasized the fact that the Sinn | Feiners at that time had to use the} Armagh and Derry the people at Important Price Reductions have. been made throughout the Summier as a result of which really remarkable vaiues GB.

They were elected to sit In a National Assembly in Ireland, The majority of the deputies #0 elected met, drew up and passed a declaration of imdependence, ratified the republic proclaimed in Easter ernment and @ President. The result of the election, an- nounced Dec, 28, showed that seven- ty-three were chosen on the direct Pepublican issue, thirty-two were chosen to go to the British House of Commons. Of these thirty-two there are six who favor the Republic if we could get official recognition to- morrow. Not twenty per cent. of the people in Ireland would oppose the Republic, If it were established in fact. We are ready to take ® plebiscite in the country and believe we would get a vote of more than three to one for the Republic. Even in the four counties of Antrim, Down, heart are Republicans and Ulster has more Nationalists than the city of Cork.” De Valera said that Great Britain, financially speaking, has benefited to an enormous extent as the result of ruling Ireland, “In 1917," said De Valera, “the Brit- ish made twenty-six million pounds sterling or more in taxes from Ire+ land, It certainly was no leas, be- cause they themselves were putting the best figures on the books for ob- vious reasons. The cost of governing | Ireland was exactly thirteen million pounds sterling, and most of that went to keep the country in subjec- ton, for a large police force, &c. As against this, liberty in Switzerland cost 20 shillings per head per year, in Serbia it cost 23 shillings, in Bul- garia 26 shillings, in Greece 29 shil- lings, in Portugal 68 shillings, in Sweden 61, in Norway ’82, while Ire- jand, for subjection and corruption, pays 160 shillings per head.” In suummarizing the figures Le Valera pointed out that a Financial Relations Commission, Composed of Britishers themselves, had announced in 1896 that the Irish, within a cen- tury, had been overtaxed about th ° hundred million pounds sterl which is equivalent to about 160 Brit: ish dreadnoughts. | When asked to discuss religion and its relationship to the Irish hopes, De Valera said there was mistaken idea prevalent in some quarters re- garding the Protestants of Ireland, that all th are opposed to a is certainly not the case.” In answer to a query as to whether England was not improving matters for Ireland, DeValera said: “England is making matters worse, not better, for Ireland.
