New York Herald Bureau. >
Dublin, April 85. (
The widespread indignation against!
th'> activity of the secessionists has j
Kxown more intense as the result of'
tlv murder to-day of Brig.-Gen. j
Adamson, commanding; the Athlone
brigade of the regular Irish Republi
can army. Crowds gathered at the
hospital early this morning and prayed
, i: vain for the recovery of the popular
voting oflicer. He was shot in the
1 cad whon' he was held up by a group1
of armed men near the headquarters
? if the Republican secessionist forces. !
The assailants ordered Adamson toj
bold up his hands, which he did. but i
nevertheless one of the men shot him
through the head.
Investigation has proved that the out-)
race was committed by a group of ir-;
responsible "corner boys.''
Loxlnu Oronnd.
"The rebellion in Ireland is nearly
over," a DaiJ Cabinet member told The
Nitw York Herald correspondent. "Th\
oilier side is losing ground steadily and
with a few more stunts life the at
tempted murder of Adamson the pulv
lie will be so aroused that they will not
be able to operate."
There are indications that the strength
<>f the army regular and consequently of
the Provisional Government is growing,
and that they have the confidence of the
>m ople wtih them. After the murder of
.Adamson, Oen. McKeon sent an ulti
matum to the secessionists who were
meupylng the Royal Hotel in which he
??barged the commandant with murder
and allowed him fifteen minutes in
which to surrender. Commandant Kltz
I iitrick of the secessionists surrendered.
He and all his officers and men were
?hen taken to the barracks of the regu
lar troops and detained.
In anticipation of the meeting of the
r>Hil niresnn to-morrow and the bffect
of yesterday's strike, the All Ireland
U'tepayrrs Association Issued a rnani
f t" calling for a national d^monstra
''on in Dublin this evening and demand
ing that the Dail understake the respon
sibility for the welfare of the people.
Commtrre Demand* Pence.
The Dublin Chamber of Commerce tor
day adopted a resolution, stating that
"the Chamber of Commerce representing
n large proportion of the manufacturing
interests of Ireland views with deep con
cern the present want of security It* our
' itv end country. It calls upon all who
are responsible for good government In
Ireland to provide at the earliest mo
rn >t possible such conditions of security
snd tranquillity as will permit Irishmen
living their lives In peace and quietness
nnd developing to the utmost the re
sources of ther native land."
(Jen. Owen Duffy, chief of staff of
the regular army, issued a statement In
which he said: "General headquarters
nevr has been In a stronger position
than now, enjoying as It does the con
fidence of a fairly equipped and well
trained and disciplined army which has
the respect and devotion of a grateful
people." He said that in twelve of six
teen divisions 75 per cent, of the troops
were loyal and that in the four others
bet ween 30 and 50 per cent, ware loyal.
Me explained that It was difficult '0
reorganize the army, however, owing to
the fact that the irregulars weru im
prisoning the organizers.
That the country Is relying more anl
more on the regulars to protect them
against the secessionists and that the
farmers might ever welcome the privi
lege of arming themselves to protect
their property wis hinted nt by Mir
lloracc Plunkett in supporting the reso
lution of the Chamber of Commerce. He
i the father rf the present Irish agri
cultural organization, representing the
great bulk of the farmers. After the
widespread depression and unsettled life
h said :
"What can we peacsble citizens un
.11 rued?many of lis disarmed?do for
i ur country In Uiis terrible crisis?' Upon
one thing we must all Insist. We trust
be allowed to live our lives witaout
h ndrancc so long as we obey the laws
of a properly constituted authority.
??If we must In our complete seclus)- <?
from all public affairs organize our own
forces for the defense of our elementary
rights," he said, "let It be known thst
we do so with good will to all, with faith
In our country and hope in Its future .''
The peace conference of the I^irt
Mayor of Dublin will meet again to
morrow after n week's adjournment, but
none is optimistic enough to-night to
predict that any tangible results will be
achieved. An Invitation has beep Issued
for the Labor party to attend, but no
representative of the secessionists h/ls
been asked to take part.

PERSHING FOR ARMY
ABLE TO BLOCK TO
He and Secretary "Weeks Ask i
Koroe Large Enough to
Prevent Aggression.
DEFENSE POLICY DEFINED
General Advocates a Minimum
Strength of 150,000 Men
and 18,000 Officers,
Washington, April 25.?a p:ea for a
national military policy which would
assure the checking of aggression by
foreign Powers In its incipiency and
which would avoid "confusion, disorder,
delay and extravagance" when emergen
cies arise was made to-day by Secretary
Weeks and Gen. Pershing before a
Senate committee In support of the War
Department program for an army of
13,000 officers and 150,000 enlisted men.
The statements by the two army
heads closed (he public discussion of 1
the annual army supply bill, and the
Appropriation* Committee, which has
charge of it. win tugin immediately to
write the measure with the prospect of
an increase over the House figures of
11,000 officers and 115,000 men.
Gen. Pershing declared that had the
United States been adequately prepared
"there is little question that the United ;
States under strong leadership could '
liave prevented the world war alto- [
get her."
He added that th re was no doubt ]
the civil war likewise never would have i
occurred had the Union been equipped ;
with an army of reasonable size and
ready for immediate use.
Not to perpetuate the national tie
fense plan of 1920, and continue from i
year to year a consistant policy of mill- I
tnry preparedness, the General declared, |
would be invite great embarrassment
in time of emergency.
"This is only the part of cbnunon I
sense and ordinary precaution," Gen. j
Pershing added. "World conditions to- '
day are not reassuring. Human nature i
has not changed and the history of i
rfatlons is one of strife. Our own ex
perience should have taught us that
the existence of envy, jealousy nnd
hatred can no more be ignored ?imonp
nations than among individuals. Th?
friends of to-day are often the enemies
of to-morrow.
"The law of 1S20 was frome.1 upon
the idea of lifting the Regular Army as
a first line of defense, but this is not pos
sible with its present (strength. There
fore the National Guard must be in
cluded in that category because the Reg
ular Army at 150.000 men and 13,000 ?
officers Is barely of sufficient strength ?
to meet even minor emergencies, to gar
rison our overseas possessions nnd to
provide a minimum of instruction for ,
the citizen forces.
"This program is of no greater in- j
terest to the individual officer or man j
of the army than it is to every member
of Congress or to every voter 'n the
land. It it* the nation's army and we
are but public servant?. We come be
fore you not as special pleaders nor as
applicants for favor. We have merely
attempted to point out, as profession*.!
men, the means by which a reasonable
measure of security for the present and
preparation for the future may ' >e car
ried out."

and Uaritan Bay. each one almost as
large as any harbor, and all connected
by a series of sheltered waterways
which together furnish shore lines about
900 miles in length."

Don't Scratch Teeth
Beautify them in this scientific way
Don't try to whiten teeth by
use of harsh abrasive. The en
amel, if you harrh it, won't come
back. Polishing agents should be
mild, as in Pepsodent.
Combat the dingy him. Do it
as millions now are doing ? in
this scientific way. Then the
prettier teeth you see everywhere
now will come to you and yours.
The cloudy film
Xour teeth are coated with a
viscous film. It clings to teeth,
gets between the teeth and stays.
When not combated, it forms
coats which are the basis of tar
tar. Film absorbs stains, making
the teeth look dingy. Those
cloudy teeth rob millions of much
beauty.
Film also holds food substance
which ferments and forms acid.
It holds the acid in contact with
the teeth to cause decay.
Germs breed in it, and they,
with tartar, are the chief cause
of pyorrhea. Thus most tooth
troubles are now traced to film.
Ways to end it
Film has been the great tooth
problem. Old methods did not
end it. So well-brushed teeth
discolored and decayed. Tooth
troubles have been constantly in
creasing. Now dental science,
after long research, has found
two ways to fight film. Able
authorities have proved their ef
ficiency. Careful people the world
over now see and feel the results.
A new-type tooth paste has
been created, made to meet mod
ern requirements.- The name is
Pepsodent. These two film com
batants are embodied in it for
daily application.
Five new effects
Pepsodent brings five cffects
which science now demands. One
is to multiply the starch diges
tant in the saliva. That it thtra
to digest starch deposits on teeth
before they ferment and form
acids. One is to multiply tha
alkalinity of the saliva. That is
Nature's agent for neutralising
mouth acids?the cause of tooth
decay. It leaves the teeth so
highly polished that film less
easily clings.
All five effects come from every
application. So film, starch and
acids are constantly combated.
Forces are created which night
and day fight enemies of teeth.
To countless homes, all the
world over, this has brought a
new era in teeth cleaning. The
results will be life-lasting.
