Ireland and St.

1923
WITH—IRELAND 1923
IRISH MINISTERS ARE
PRISONERS OF OWN
GOVERNMENT.
How will St. Patrick’s Day, 1923,
find Ireland? To answer this
question, NEA Service and the
imies-Recorder sent Milton Bron
ner there. This is his second dis
patch.
BY MILTON BRONNER
NEA Staff Correspondent
DUBLIN, March 14.—A govern
ment carrying on all the functions
oi a government, yet a government
which has to keep itself behind bar
red doors in its own capital—this is
one of the striking anomalies of the
Irish Free State.
The circumstance is not due to lax
government or to personal coward
ice of government officials. It is
due to the kind of war that is being
carried on against it.
The Dublin police is a splen
did body of men which keeps order
on the streets and regulates traffic
with ease. The Irish Free State army
under Genera 1 Mulcahy i s a well
disciplined, well-equipped organiza
tion of 30,000 men, the proof of
whose energy is that about 8000 Ir
regulars are in prison.
Guerrilla Warfare. *
But the Irregulars are elusive.
They bog up near Cork one day,
near Dublin or Wexford a few days
later. They come out of the fog and
vanish into the midst. The hillsides
know them and the waste places.
And you can’t tell who is an Ir
regular.
At the request of the army, there
fore, the president and his cabinet
are living under guard in govern
ment buildings. This is to prevent
any further occurences like the kill
ing of Micheal Collins.
Not only have the Irregulars at
times shot at the buildings but there
are constant rumors of attempts to
drive mines under the streets and
the buildings.
The private residences of some of
the cabinet members have been
burned. Others have received threats.
So far these have had little affect
upon either the Government ministers
or the members of the Dail Eireann.
The only member who has re
signed has been Dr. George Siger
son, who is 85.
Dr. a. farpous physician,
was in the -senate. He received a
letter threatening to burn his prop
erty. He was ’quoted as saying he
did not mind threats of assassina
tion, but threats to burn his home
were a different matter, because of
the patients there.*
“Oriels” Organized.
In addition to the open warfare
in Dublin and throughout southern
Ireland, there is a secret under
cover warfare.
The Irregulars get their informa
tion through devoted women who
give all their time to what they call
the republican cause.
To combat these, the Free State
has set up a Criminal Investigation
Department, popularly known as
“Oriel House,” because of the build
ing in which it has offices. The Orie’
men have already established a repu
tation in Ireland similar to that of
Scotland Yard in London. Owing to
their activities, tons of ammunition
and masses of Irregular literature
have been confiscated.
TOMORROW:. After suppression
of rebellion, what faces the Irish
Free State.

PULP WOOD CONSUMPTION
IS PUT AT 5,300,000 CORDS
ATLANTA, March 14.—The total
consumption of pulp wood ana pro
duction of wood pulp in 1922 will ex
ceed that of 1921 By about 17 per

consumed by the 172 mills that have
reported to the departemnt is given
as 3 726.963 cords in 1922 against
3 196 846 cords by the same mills in

BOUT TONIGHT AT 8
Kirwsey, Marion Lee and Two
Be*-,*'Gibson, Harry Allen, Ken
I Lads on Legion Card
Bob Gibson is fighting for the
American Legion band tonight. He
and Kim Kimsey, our two very own,
are scheduled to lick the stuffins out
of two other gentlemen, one head
ing from Leesburg, the other from
Maeon. That’s the word that comes
from Commander Crawford’s fight
committee.
The Time’s—Tonight, 8 Sharp.
The Place—Legion Hall, Old Arm
ory, on Forsyth street, near Dudley’s
Opera House.
THE REASON- —All profits go to
the Legion band, which is incidental, j
for the real reason, is everybody
wants to see the boys mix it for 16
rounds.
“Do you remeber Bob Gibson and
What’s - His - Name Scrap - Iron |
Green?” Commander Crawford ask- j
ed. “Well, you’ll also remember that I
Bob Gibson went into that ring with I
a broken nose. Boy, that nose was I
worse than broken. It was crushed,
smashed, flattened and mutilated.
Scrap-Iron knew all about the nose
and, believe me, he tjammered it ev
ery chance, but Gibson stayed and
how he did fight. He was glorious.
Those boys fought until both were j
simply down and out—and I believe |
the referee called it a draw. Bui >
for that nose—
“Oh, well that’s ancient history
now. The point is Gibson is com
ing back tonight, if I am any kino
of a prognosticator. Gibson wants
to hear the referee count 10—on the
other fellow.
“Then there’s Kim Kimsey. That
long-legged boy has developed from
a golden-haired amateur’ into a real
bruiser. He is going after Marion
Lee, of Leesburg. They tell me that
boy carries a nice easy, soft name,
just to fool ’em. Marion’s two fists
pack two pile-drivers, about equal I
to a Georgia mule rough-shod. Six
rounds is the limit if Marion wants
that much.
Harry Allen, of Macon, conies here
to spread Bob Gibson all over Sum
ter county. Bob won’t talk. He just I
looks wise and smiles and says, I
‘bring Harry on. I’m waiting for i
those Macon boys.’ Harry and Bob |
are to go six rounds.
“Keys Arnold and Albert Thayer,
two Americus lads, will open the se
ries with a slugging match for four
rounds.
“It’s a dollar and a half show for
75 cents’. Under Legion rules ev
erybody’s invited to come and yell
and forget that cotton w'as once
selling for less than 30 cents.”
■ ' i >’» /'j “ ’
MACON, March 14.—Harry Allen,
local preliminary fighter, has proof
of the fact that he is becoming popu
lar all over the state. Karry is going
to appear in the main go of a short
card- in Americus tonight. The 10-1
cal boy will meet Bob Gibson, of I
Plains, in a six-round decision bout.
Harry is making friends all around |
this section now, due to his whirlwind |
style of battling. He was sought
particularly by the Americus people.
CORDELE, March 14.—Ken Kim
sey, of Cordele, enters a six-round
bout tonight in Americus with Marion
Lee, of Leesbrug. This is not the
first time the Cordele boy has been
in the ring and he promises enter
tainment for the former army cham
pion he will face.
There will be other contests during
the hour in Americus and a good
program is promised. The Cordele
boy is the son of C. W. Kimsey, spe
cial agent for the Seaboard here.

No Changes Will Be Made, Says
Auto Magnate, Before Next
Congress Meets
WASHINGTON, March 14—There
will be ifo conges in the Henry Ford,,
offer for Muscle Shoals pending an
other session of congress, it is defi
nitely learned. Because of know
ledge to the above effect, several
members of congress, interested in
the Ford offer, addressed letters of
tEianks and congratulations to Mr.
Ford and gave him assurance that
his offer would be put through the
house before January 1, and through
the senate quickly thereafter.
This development in the situation
was highly pleasing to Ford advo
cates inasmuch as fear was expressed
immediately after the adjournment
of congress that Ford might become
disgusted because of the do-nothing
attitude of congress, and withdraw
his offer. It is pointed out that even
should the friends of Ford force him
into a candidacy for the presidency
that would be an event of next
spring by which time congress would
have acted, it is believed, on his offer
for Muscle Shoals.
Senator George W. Norris, of Ne
braska, who opposes the Ford offer
and would further develop Muscle
Shoals for continued government
ownership and operation, declared |
that he would renew his fight in the I
next session. He expressed belief
that the change in personnel would
not redound to the advantage of
Ford more than to the advantage of
the proposition involving government
ownership. On the other hand. Ford
advocates declare that in the next
congress there will be fewer reac
tionary Republicans, more Progres
sives and more Democrats, and that
this fact makes it practically certain
that the Ford offer would be adopt
ed.
It will be necessary in the next
congress to renew the struggle from
the very beginning. Hearings before
the military committee of the house
will be in order, Acting Chairman
McKenzie said. The membership of
the committee will undergo no
change. It is about equally divided
on three angles, a Ford, an anti-
Ford.and a Ford with reservation an

CANDLERfpTyAD®
CHARGE IN HIS SDIT
Attorney Howeli Claims Finan
cier’s Answer Backs Mrs. De
Bouchelle’s Allegations
ATLANNTA, March 14. “The
formal answer of Asa G. Candler
to Mrs. Onezima de Bouhcel’s suit
for $500,000 for breach of promise
admits practically every material al
legation of the plaintiff’s petition.”
This was the statement Tuesday of '
Albert Howell, Jr., of the firm ’bf ’ >
Dorsey, Brewster, Howell & Hqy
man representing the New Orleans
soicety woman in her suit for half
a million dollars as heart balm, al
leged to have been caused by the
conditions accompanying the break
ing off of an engagement between -
the Atlanta millionaire and the
plaintiff.
“It has been my policy to avoi l
newspaper interviews concerning
litigation in which I am interested.”
said Mr. Howell, “but the circum
stances of this case justify a de
parture from that policy.
“When 1 was approached by a
New Orleans attorney representing
Mrs. de Bouchel I felt that the
main issue involved in the contro
versy was the truth or falsity of the
charges upon which Mr. Candler
broke his promise to marry Mrs. de
Bouchel. 1 declined association in
the case until I should be afforded
an opportunity to investigate the
history and character of the plain
tiff.
“My own investigation, which was
conducted through the most reliable
and impartial sources available, vin
dicated her character and absolutely
demonstrated the baseness; of. the
rumors which had been at the last
moment accepted by Mr. Candler, as
ground of his abandonment.
“He admits with admirable frank
ness that he did not and does not
know whether the rumors related to
him affecting her character were
true or false, and admits that he
broke the engagement without mak
ing any investigation to ascertain
whether the charges were false.
Mr .Candler’s answer will serve to
simplify the issues.”
