Ireland want to have no mere to do I
with the war than she can help, and
nothing whatever to do with con
scription?
To the. visitor from London there
seems to be one very natural anl
very good reason. Ireland Is too

the present she has kept Armageddon
at a sufficient distance not to make
life depressing.

RadT for Sacrifice.
This industrial energy is remark
able, individually as well as collective
ly. Not a Fingle American worker did
1 meet who did not express an ardent
desire to offer personal sacriiice on
behalf of the allies. -You over there
have done so much: I want to do iust
a- much as there Is in me, and a. little
n ore," was the utfuai expression. Tney
are following the present great bat
tle with the closest possible interest,
and their admiration for the fighting
quality of our army is unbounded.
Er-rone constantly spoke, not only
of the sacrifice, but of the pluck and
alor of the British army, and they
spoke, too, in sympathy with the spirit
of the civilians behind that army.
Say crc Willi: Workers.
Accordingly, they gladly undergo
anv self sacrifices which will lighten
the loads on the backs of their allies.
Not once did 1 hear a single grumble
regarding their meatless, wheatless
and hcatless days, which have been
imposed upon them despite the fact
that America herself could never fear
starvation.

Talking on behalf of the party,
Senor Carpio spoke enthusiastically
Df their reception by president Wil

relief in his honesty and sincerity of

A party of gay young men who

were standing by the side of the road.
I asked my jarvey what they were

they're saying," he answered.
"They've heard that conscription is

Which, after all. is one good reason
why some people In Ireland would
not mind conscription.
Tou can't help getting that prewar
feeling after 24 boors in Dublin.
You feel it everywhere, save when
you look into the faces of the Irish
wounded in the streets. Look into a
shop window and you will see a pic
ture of "The Hero of the Hour," the
lean, ascetic face of Mr. de Valera.
Read the Dublin papers and you
enter into the spirit of the political
days of old. Giant headlines about the
no-Popery campaign, stirring leading
articles about the unity of Ireland,
lesser articles about still more local
politics. The war news is there, of
course, more prominently displayed
in some than in others. The great

Never was there such political
unity. It is strange to see the famil
iar British war posters about food
and war savings and the old appeals
fer volunteers conspicuous and not
defaced, and to see British soldiers
walking down Sackville street Just as
if it were the Strand. During the
few days of my last visit I saw not
one unfriendly sign towards our
fighting men from the groups of
young men who were discussing con
scription at the street corners.
Life goes on In the old leisurely

little to grumble about. The Jaunting

It is at nightfall that one feels one
self really back into the spring of
1914 those perfect moonlit evenings
when all the world save Ireland was
at peace and there was not so much
as a whisper of war fa the stir of the
breezes.
The street lamps are lit. the shop
windows are bright with unshaded
brilliance and the light pours gener
ously on to the gavements. Crowds of
young men and women laughing and
talking gaily, pass to and fro. one
looks in vain for the sad shadowed
faces that are seen in every town in
old England today. Young Ireland.

president Mario O. Menocal, of Cuba,
have Joined hands in the establish
ment of an international educational
alliance to bind the United States and
Latin America closer together. De
tails of the plan were made public by
mayor 11 lan yesterday. The most
important features of the project are
the following:
1. A Pan American educational con
vention to be held in Havana this
fall. To this meeting president Meno
cal has invited the heads of the great
universities of North, Central and
South America.
2. The establishment of an inter
change of students hetwee i the uni
versities of the United States and
Latin America. In this way Ameri
can young men may take post grad
uate courses In countries where Span
ish is spoken and thus learn the
Spanish language and Spanish Ameri
can institutions, as is impossible to
day. 3. The preparation of young men
in the United States for diplomatic
and consular service In Latin Ameri
can countries. The courses of study
to be followed by American students
at Latin American universities will
be chosen with the advice and co
operation of the state department.
4. The teaching of Spanish as s
prescribed study in the public schools
of the United States. Mayor Hylan
has already begun an investigation
to determine how this can best be
done in the schools of New York City.
The plan originated with Severance
Johnson, a New York newspaper edi
tor, who went to Cuba last winter to
study the educational system of the
island republic
Nayr Jnaes statement.
The statement issued by mayor Hy
lan follows:
"The president of Cuba has written
to me recommending that Spanish be
made part of the prescribed curricu
lum of the public schools of the Uni
ted States.
I believe that president nenocai
is right.
"This republic and the Latin Amer
ican nations should be brought closer
together, and I know of no way that
will work better to this end than for
Americans to study Spanish, and the
Latin peoples of this hemisphere to
study English.

rector of the University of Havana,
who made this reply:
"Havana university will gladly Join
a Pan American educational alliance
which will work for s closer union of
all the American republics. We
should welcome graduates from the
universities of the United States, who
desire to specialize in the Spanish
language and Spanish American lit
erature and history. In Havana these
young men could prepare for business
or diplomatic work in South Ameri
can countries. They could obtain ad
vantages that cannot be obtained ex
cept by living and studying in a
Spanish speaking country."

Johnson said:

"Germany was Dlannlnx- the indus

In response to a telegram received
Thursday morning from J. T. Ram-

that the boys will go to the cherry

picking Wednesday.

camps are being established in differ

are 65 who are assistants to car
penters and helpers in ice factories.
Two groups of 50 each have been sent
into the wheat fields in Kansas and
Oklahoma.
"There Is a tendency for boys en
roled in the reserve, to rush off to
places upon reading in the papers of
established camps." said W. A. Young.

This union cannot be founded upon

No, this union should be based

an alliance of thought and culture."
The revulsion of feeling In Latin

and their growing friendship for the
United States, was emphasized by
president Menocal in an interne
with Mr. Johnson, in which he said
"In my opinion the Lux berg cor re

public by the American state depart

another opportunity to betray Latin

"The Latin American countries
should all rally to the aid of the Uni
