slantk on Enßland and itä Im-
ceriahstic fipirit, and fts I trrew
up I carried the same attitude to
the judging pf all othtr coun-
tnes. Very early I saw the
sordid meanness of Frenchttien,
as clearly as the selfish wiliness
of the ltahans, or the pedantry
and sentimentality ö the Ger-
mansj or the shittless ideaham
ot thi $lav. but I came to recard
the (jefmart on the whole as the
ttronßest taan in Europe, the
feureSt ßuide id the future, and
began to love the Rüssian be-
cause ht had so müch love in
htm for others,
All the tohile at the bottom
of rny heart I cherished the
superstition that the American
ivas the pick of the bunch,' for
he ac'ded a love of equality and
justice to the Enjjlish strenßth,
and a Geman love of abstract
truth of original thought and
frank Speech to the conven
tional Anglo-Saxon ideal, and
throiigli all like a golden strand
in the weaving went the Irish
sympathy with revolt and Keltic
understanding of the daemonic
in man. In fact I made an ideal
of the American as we are all apt
to do with our own people.
I earned tlie hatred of th;
English in the Venezuelan dis
pute by declaring that Dick
Ulney would make my Lord öf
Salisbury back down and eat
dirt and when thd crisia came
and English papers preached war
rather than disgräced Submis

Review" warning Grcat Britai
that in a fight vith these States
she would pay for all her crimes
against humanity and disappear
from among the great Nation?
falling to her true place as an
other Holland. America, I
cried, could whip the world in
arms; she will yet be the Con
science of the free Peoples - and
the Avenger of secular: in justice.
At the beginning of the Great
War I came to America bopinif.
praying that neither sids might
win ä decisive victory but pre
dicti'ng that in the drawn battle
the Gerrnans "would be easy
inner ort points."
I had no idea, no faintest fear
or hops that America would tahe
a band in tbs war. It had noth
ing to lo with herz we werc
not involved in any way nor even
threalened. I deplored the ac
ceptance of the British block

I knew it was "illegal." 1
hated the shipping of munitions
to Great Britain and the Aliies.
I took Waiihington's yiew of the
matcr and prayed for strictost
justice and absolute non-intcr-screnre.
Evcryone knows hov the
United St3tes was gradually
drawn in; how we sirst providd
th6 .Allies with munitions and
then - with monies to büy the
ftiunitions; how we accepted the
"illegal" blockade which we had
denounced and permitted the
British to search American ships
and confiscate as contraband
milk for' the starving children
and rubber gloves for the Red
Gross hospitals in Germany.
Babies and wounded rnen werc
put outsid our pity and my
soul sickened.
Had we kept our strict neu
trality inviolate, we should have
had an immense m'oral inlluence,
not only with the Allies, but
with Germany, and it is beyonJ
doudt that at the crucial rnoment
iri the first days of 1917 we
ehould have been able to impose
just peacs pn thd warring na
lions, the peace of the Status quo
ante with the reparation 6f Bei
gium and the i eturn to Francs
of the French parts of Alsace
Lorraine. But our moral power
was weakened by our partisan
ship and the partisanship became
sö flagrant that many ill-informed
Gcrmans thought our declared
enmity prcfcrable to the uncon
cealed aid we were giving to the
Allies j consequcntly, desperate
mei5ures were adopted by, Ger
many. After we entered the" war we
rengthened the blockade ai
much as we could, and cöntinued
it alter the armistice was signed.
For i eight long months alter
President Wilson had declared
the War was ended we fielpcd to
fctarve Gerrrran children and

BrockdorfT-Rantzau asserted at
the Paris Conference that over a
miüion GeryiZa ffiotheri . and
the war was "ended and over,"
to use President Wilson's words.
But no on listened to him; it
was tossed aside as a peace
plea and when Dr. Renner,
the head, of th Austriari Mission,
said that the blockade after thö
armistice had been Signed was
responsible for rnore innocent
sufferine than the whole war.
ordinarily intelligent Arnericans
merely sneered. None of the
scribes in the' kept capitalist
press of America or England
paid the slightest attention to the
horrible indictrnent.
This, in my opinion, marks the
lowcst point to which so-called
civilized humanity hasN evet
sunk, the absolute nadir of brutal
savägery, and I should think
myself unworthy of my Position,
as a journalist and recorder of
passing events did I not Protest
in the plainest language against
uns outrage upon the conscience
of rntn. For it has ' been oer
petrated by Enclishmen and
Americarts whose language ' is
mine, whose Iitcrature is rnine,
wiiose Ideals I have hitherto re-
pected and whose sharne I am
compelled to sharö .
If anyone had told me at the
beginning of the war the Eng
lish would so misuse tlieir powet
I should have protested; Pd have
said that in the strcs3 of a
struggle the English were cap
able of almost anything. I had
witnessed their savasrerv more
than once. The Concentration
camps in the Boct war proved
what they would do even to
wotnen and children in ordef to
win or Tat least avoid plain defeat.
But once the fight tvas over, th
English, I'd have sworn,"were
generous foes, magnanimous
even to the helplcss among the
defeated. 'But the English gov
emment cöntinued the blockade
of Germany after the German
soldiers had laid . down their
arms, after all possible armed
resistance was at an end, when
evcryone knew that there was
rothing. to kill but womeri and

came from the British oßiccrs

olücers and men would not stand
by and see German women and
children starved to dcath.
But ho hotice was täken even

hofnwe months more the star-vatiori-blockade
was cöntinued

peare's awful line : "the power
to do ill deeds rnakes ill deeds
done."
One word, or.s fact to rnake
truth manifest and burn the
knowledge of it into the soul of
our great but ignorant people:
In May and June, hundreds of
women in Berlin and thousands
in Germany had carried unborn
babes ten and eleven months in
stead of nine. Blind nature was
a thousand times more pitiful
than man ; Nature "red in tooth
and claw" aecording to Tenny
son, Nature "without conscience
and without a touch of the
Divine" aecording to Darwinist,
kinder thast American men -and
women.
I did what I could to ävvaken
my countrymen to the foul
atrocitics perpetrated in- their
fiame and by their powef iri
peace-time. All in, vaih ; the
savagery cöntinued.
And now peace is signed; the
Massacre of the Innocents is
ended, though the Allied govern
ments take" care that their suffer
ings shall be prolonged, and I
want to register this sölemn
Protest.
It is plain ly written I believe
in history that natioris which
stoöp to such atrocities pay the
Penalty and disappear from the
tage. Rom kell because Rome
preferred patrlotism to humanity.
England ks doomed föt'the Same
reason ; after the Eocr war, I
wrote that the handwriting was
plain on every wall, and when
this war began I bcücved that
England's hour hal struck.

BY WILLIAM HENRY CHAMBERLIN (In "Young
Democracy").
There äre Certain self-stvled'fxnmrinafinn unApt rmmntn
liberals vvho always solemnly
precate any violent criticism of
existing conditions. They preach
patience and moderation at all
times and at all costs. They pre
fer to cornpromise with injustice,
rather than to figlit it to a finish.
They are more shocked by tne
txposure of an outrageous evil
in burning language thart by thepelled the American colonies to
actual , existence of the evil.
Ireiand has suffered much
from the vell-meant efforts of
such tepid liberals. They, more
than any one eise, are responsible
for confusing a plain moral issue
by introducing artificial compli
Cations. The tory who believeä
that , Ireiand was creatcd to be
politically oppressed and econo
mically exploited by England is
at least an open and avowed ene
my. But the "liberal," be he
English or Anglo-American, who
professes the utmost sympathy
with Irish grievanecs, but who
cherishes all sorts of cautious
doubts about Ulster, and about
the capacity of the Irish people
for self-government, and about
British , security he is the
friend from whorn Ireiand may
well pray to be delivered.
In considering the Irish prob
lern nothing should Obscure the
fundamental fact that the Eng
lish doMination of the neighbor
ing island is a putely arbitrary
despotism, establlshed and main
täined only by süperior fpree.
At no time in their history have
the Irish yielded even nominal
acquiescence täf the foreign
tyranny. Tinte after time they
have protested against the häte
ful allen regime by desperate,
futile revolts, foredoomed to fail
ure by the overwhelming power
arrayed against them. The last
öf these revolts, the mad, heroic
venture of a few young ideal
ists, was crushed by the British
military authorities in 191 ö with
a savagery worthy ot the Ger
rnans in Belgium. In the par
liamentäry election last Decem
ber the independence party, the
Sinn Feiners, operating under
the greatest obstacles in the shape
of repression and martial law,
swept the island by an enormous
majority. Eamonn de Valera's
title as President of the Irish
Rcpublic rests upon a larger Pro
portion of votes than were gkven
to Woodrow Wilson in 1916.
This clear and unmfstakable
desire of the Irish people for
freedom is a sufficient answer to
the Statement that Ireiand Is
satissied with the many benefits
which she has reeeived under
English rulc. These benefits
exist largely in the mlnd ot
British Propagandist any way;
and they are far outweighed by
corresponding injuries. It is not
ftecessäry for t Irishmen to go
back into history for their
wrongs, to recall the wholcsale
free press all these bfafnles
brutalities sill me with sick fear.
We too shall pay for our mii
deeds; may the punishment come

The ärgumenfs against Irish

Irish are incapable of self-government
is the familiär äccusa

proof öf its genuine character

In this connectiott it should be
itoied that the Ulster mittority is
considerably maller than the
German arid Magyaf minorities
in several öf the hew" states
which thö Peace Conference has
created ir Eastern Europe. More-
over, Ulster is far front a re

a large Gatholic: rninörity in the
province; and the general strike
in Belfast last spring showed
quite conclusively that the Ulster
workrnen .regardlesS öf race ör

the radical Sinn Feiners than to
the Ulr.ter capitalists. In any
event it is an intolerable viola
tion of dernoeratie principles that
a srnall rninörity öf alien in
truders should indefinitely thwart
the aspirations of the great rnass
of the Irish people for independ
ence. The argurnent is often ased
that a free Ireiand would con
stitute a grave menace to Eng
lish security. The fact that such
a distinctly Prussian and Machia
vellian reason should be advanoed
even by a liberal ergan like
"The Manchester Guardian" is a
mclancholv Illustration of th

Aecording to ä special cable

The London Mofning Post,
rnakes a plea on behalf of Mexico

the Mexican Government had,
despite its cordial relätions with

Its powerful tteighbor to the

United States wörked unceasing

industry, and following the usual
American business strategy
aimed at a monopoly. The
American monopolist was balked
of bis object, but did not hesitate
to take bis revenge.
