Street on Saturday night to hear Eliza?
beth Gurley Flynn apeak with fiery
rrish eloquence and I. W.?W. vigor on
"The Aliens in America."
The yo mg people of Xo. 5 wear their
colora unashamedly. The girl organizer
of the circle had a red silk kerchief
knotted i cowboy fashion around her
neck. The otr.cr girls and Doys sported
them, too, and when the "Red Fias"
was sung with all the pseudo-solemnity
that usually marks this performance
red kerchiefs were waved all over the
room.
The "Yipsels" were seething with in- ,
dignation over (he "wretched bour?
geoisie attack" made upon them the day
before on their way home from the j
Palisades, where they Und bren for an
outing. Tiny all were talking about it,
and one of the girls told the story to
a Tribun:' reporter.
Tragedy of Red Kerchiefs
"It wouldn't have been so strange if
we i ad boon attacked on ihe way out,"
she aid, "b< cause we were singing rev?
olutionary songs at the top of our
voices in the train, and people scowled
or. grinned at us as they felt inclined.
On the way home we were too tired to
be noisy. As we neared (?rand Central
Station we were sitting quietly playing,
pan;' -, when some of the people on the
train, including a man in khaki, at
taol i us. f suppose they saw our red
handkerchiefs. We're not a bit afraid
to carry them around, but it is just
like waving a red flag before a wild
bull to display them in public.
,W< !!, they picketed the doors of
the tiain'i.t the station and punched
the boys; us we were going out and
calle,I 'Bolshcviki!' after us. No, they
didn't touch the girls, but they hustled
us all out and ragged us as we went."

the hope of tho world. She warned
them against spending too much time
on theoretical work and study. The
movement was being retarded by a sur?
plus of high-flown talk about Karl
Marx, the communist manifesto, and
such things. They were to go forward.
Talk didn't count; action did. They
were not to be downed by the elder
Soeialists, but were to assert them:
selves and put theory into practice.
The "Yipsels" h?ve theories about
the relationship of men and women in
the coming world of socialism. As one
girl of 17, belonging to another "Yip
sel" circle, put it:
"Oh, yes. the 'Yipsels' are learning
not to believe in the marriage cer<
mouy. The theory cannot be forced
down our throats. In the course of our
Socialist teachings we learn that free
low is all right. It's quite reasonable,
don't you think'.' If you don't like a
man, leave him and go to spme one
you do like. \Vh> h d : o : be bound
to any one'.' That isn't freedom."
"And what would you do about
bringing up children?"
This was a poser.
Evidently the girl had never heard of
the Socialist theory thai a child should
be taken a: birtl ; brought up to lie
a good Socialist within the four walls
of an institution.

Good Effect
LONDON', June 1. The Afghan main
offensive against Thai, un 1er General
Nadir Khan, the Amir's commander-in
chicf, is developing. The latest official
information from Simla, received on
May 29 and : 0, shows that all attacks
on Fort Thai have been repulsed. The
fort was bombarded throughout
Wednesday last, and the Afghans oc?
cupied the looted bazaar outside the
fort.
Air reconnoissance disclosed nhout
3,500 of the enemy near Thai. Their
camps wero effectively bombed.
At the capture of the Afghan fort of
Raldak, opposite Chaman, Baluchistan,
the l!ri'<h took Ktf prisoners and
killed 320 of the enemy. The guns
made breaches in the walls, and tho
fort, was finally reduced by assault.
The garrison fought bravely, and for
the most par', were killed or raptured.
It was the strongest forf in Afghanis?
tan, having thick outer walls and
bombproof shelters. Its fall has had a
good effect in Kandahar and along the
Chaman frontier, as : ??owing the effect
of high explosive shell?.

Ireland United
For Separation,
Says M. J. Ryan
Continued from pape 1
myself, addressed to President Wil?
son, asking that he use his good offices
to obtain safe conduct .to Paris for
President de Valora, Arthur Griffiths
and Mr. Plunkett, the chosen repre?
sentatives of the Irish people and au?
thorized to speak for them at the
peace conference.
"It was generally known that this
request would be refused, and it was
deemed advisable that I should return
to tho United States and present to
the executive committee of the Friends
of Irish Freedom a report detailing
what we had done, with its successes
and its disappointments, so that a de?
tailed plan might bo mapped out.
"Following the proposal that we
should meet Lloyd George, we went
to Ireland, a trip not contemplated by
us when we left here. I found in Ire?
land a degree of enthusiasm exceed?
ing my fondest expectations. All
kinds of people, formerly divided po?
litically, are now determined that Ire?
land shall not be the one black spot
where freedom is denied the inhabi?
tants. I believe that if an election
were now held, live-sixths of the peo?
ple would vote for complete separa?
tion. The people in the humblest vil?
lages as well as the big cities are in
favor of a republic.
"Whatever may or may not bo re?
ported by us as delegates, this message
wo can bring back: Ireland is de
t( rmined to secure her liberty. I made
the plea over there that it would be
for the welfare of England and Ameri
i ; as well as for Ire-land if the Irish
question were settled. Surely, the man?
hood of America, cannot believe there <
is at hand an honest settlement of the
great troubles causing this world war
if the people of Poland, Jugo-Slovakia, i
Ukrainia, Lithuania and other coun?
tries are given freedom and Ireland, I
one of the oldest of the nations of the
world, is refused it."
Few Co to Jail.
Mr. Ryan said there were few pris?
oners in Ireland just now, and these
were men arrested for political of
K .aces.
"There are more crimes, more laws
violated and more persons arrested in
a large American city in one week,"
he said, "than in all Ireland in a year. '
Ireland is prosperous, even though i
taxes are high, and she has plenty of
food. Next to America, Ireland was |
Britain's chief source of food supply :
; during the war. i
"The Sinn Fein element, which i* 1
strong and is getting stronger daily, ;
r. in favor of a republic. The organ?
ization has had many converts of late. . ;
For example, Captain Robert Barton, '
of the British army, who was the cus- i
ti iian of De Valora, now is in sympa- I
thy with the cause of Irish fret ?loir.. :
When h.e saw brav men fact) death
fi r a cause he became interested. He
soughl to know what was tho cause i
at would bring this great display of
S( !f sacrifice. ; '
Eager for Settlement
"All classes of the Irish people, mer?
chants, ?era.eis, leaders of industry,
are eager for a settlement. There is
no doubt that the race that gave great
leaders of industry to other lands will
be capable of molding its own future
if permitted to do so unfettered by a
i ..ruinent against which four-fifth;;
the peopli protest.
"No treaty should be ratified by the
United States that will rivet more se-,
:u ely the chains upon Ireland and
make Great Britain the super lord of
the earth. The people of Ireland be?
lieve in the high ideals promulgated
prior to the war, during the war and
sine/ the war by President Wilson,
ic touchstone of all these profes
. ions is Ireiand. and no subject people '
has made the sacrifice.! that Ireland
made. The deeds that Ireland's
ns have performed have been to
bring victory to America."
Mr. Ryan said that Mr. Dunne and.
Mr. Walsh would sail for America
about June il on the Espagne.

Mexican Bank Looting
Denied by Cabrera
Answers Mitchell With Claim
Money Was Legally Obtained
as Loans
MEXICO CITY, June 1. ? Luis
Cabrera, Secretary of the Treasury,
in a statement to-night denies an
allegation said to have been made by
William B. Mitchell, former manager
in Mexico City of the Bank'of London
and Mexico and now connected with a
bank in New York City, that large
Fama of money were obtained from
the bank in Mexico by the government
through military force or threats of
death to Mr. Mitchell. Cabrera asserts
that the money was obtained legally as
loans.
The Secretary declares that the
loans were for 58,750,000, instead of
$20,000.000, as Mr. Mitchell said; that
Mr. Mitchell was not arrested in con?
nection with resistance to the govern?
ment officers, but on civil grounds:
that the government has made formal
declaration that the loans were ob?
tained from the Bank of London and
Mexico in the public int..--rest, and that
the money will be repaid as soon as
the government's financial condition
will permit.
William B. Mitchell, in the Federal
Court in New York City, is seeking to
restrain the New York attorney of the
Commission Monetaria of Mexico from
prosecuting a suit to obtain $140,000
deposited in the Bank of Montreal. In
his allegation Mitchell said President
Carranza of Mexico had legislation
drafted under which he seized $42,000,
000 in gold, silver and bullion, and
drove the branch of the Bank of Mon?
treal out of business in Mexico. Mr.
Mitchell declared also that the $140,000
is part of the funds of the bank.
