Admiral Sims Stirs Up Hornets’ Nest by His London Speech

About the Irish.

SECRETARY_OFJAVY JOTS Mexico Told She Must Sign Treaty to Obtain Recognition—Pueblo Ri»Ing From Flood Disaster— New Parliament of North-

ern Ireland Meets.

By EDWARD W. PICKARD.

Some of our eminent Americans have a positive genius for saying the wrong thing when they are abroad. Closely following the extraordinarily tactless utterances of Ambassador Harvey In his first address In London comes the speech of Admiral Sims at a meeting of the English Speaking union in the British metropolis. He Is quoted In the press as saying: •'I do not want to touch on the Irish question, for I know nothing about It. But there are many In our country wl ;> technically are Amer: rails, some of them naturalized and some born there, but none of them Americans at all. They are Americans when they want money, hut Sinn Fotners when on the platform. They are making war on America today. The simple truth of it Is that they have the blood of the British and American hoys ..n their hands for the obstrurtloas they plui-eu In the way of the most effective operation of the allied naval forces during the war. They are like zebras, either black horses with white stripes or white horses with black stripes. But we know they ore not horses—they ar»asses. But each of these asses has n vote and there are lots of them." Of course the numerous friends of "free Ireland'' In the United States were enraged by these words, and i Senator Meihl! McCormick of Illinois went to the front promptly, denouncing the Bdi..!ru!'s speed) os "r.-pre-henslhle and disgusting." He called the attention of Secretary of the Navy Denl.y to the address and asked that Sims la* disciplined If It developed that he had been oomjotly quoted. Without bothering the Pres lent with the affair. Secretary Denby -utiled to Admiral Sims the substance : of the pn-ss reports and ordered him i to Inform the department tmm-dlately whether or not he had used the lan-

guage attributed to him.

The senate, taking to Itself some of the admiral's harsh expressions, unanimously adopted a resolution or- : derlng the naval affairs committee to ; mok • a thorough investigation of the

matter

i reply to Secretary Stms declared he ate a single word of Ambassador Harvey i» thought they were iiidable task of mainat: -lug the nmicahte ions; hut if they hart ble with their years

pensatlon valid titles which have been obtained by American citizen* under Mexican laws. A confiscation policy strikes not only at the interests of particular individuals but at the foundations of International Intercourse, for It is only im the base of the security of property validly possessed under the laws existing at the time of its ai-quisition that commercial transactions between the peoj^c of two countries and the conduct of activities In helpful co-operation are possible. "Tltis question la vital because of the provisions inserted in the Mexican constitution promulgated in B>1“If these provision* are to be put into effect retroactively, the properties of American citizens will lie confiscated on a gnat srale. This would constlmte an International wrong of Uie gravest character, and tills government could not submit to Us uccotupilshmeut." The Republican majority in the house took steps to discard the Borah amendment to the naval bill, and to substitute the idea of the Porter Jo.nt resolution, which concurs In ihe expressed purpose of President Harding to call a disarmament conference but refuses to tie his bands with Instructions or requests, as does the Borah [dun. The Porter idea. It is said. Is Ihe more pleasing to the President, but he will not directly Intervene in ihe controversy. The huuae Democrats are almost solidly in favor of the Borah amendment. The senate performed a |>e<-ullar flop last week in dealing With the army hill. t*n Tuesday, by a vote of :i4 to 30, it rejected the drastic army -reduction voted by the house, adopting the plan ■•t the senaie military committee for an army of an average strength of 1SO.OUO during the next year, with a reduction to HSJ.OOO by February 15. 1022. Next day the senate reversed itself, deciding) 30 to 32. to reduce the army to l.sj.000. which would necessitate the discharging of about 75,000 men before Ihe middle of next February. The entire bill was then passt'd without a roll call. It carries an appropriation of $333,000.U00 for the army for the fiscal year beginning July 1. President Harding announced to oongroiii his selections for the reconstructed United States shipping board. A. D. Lasker, a well-known advertising man of Chicago, was appointed chairman. The other members are: T. V. O'Connor of Buffalo. N. Y.; former Senator Chamberlain of Oregon. Edward C. Plummer of Maine. F. I. Thompson of Alabama. Meyer Llssuer of Los Angeles and Rear Admiral Benson of Georgia. The selection of Mr. Lasker was criticized sarcastically by certain Democratic congressmen and warmly defended by Illinois representatives. The Republican national committee, in session in Washington, accepted the resignation of Chairman Will Hoy* and elected John T. Adams of Dubuque, la to xucceed him. Mr Adam." has been vice chairman, and that position was given to Ralph K. Williams of Portland, Ore. A new basis of reremotatlan at national convention* was adopted by which the Southern state* will lose 23 delegates number accredited to ihe Chicago convention of last June. The old system allowed for one delegate from each congressional district. Inti under the

dhranpolls, and Henry Ryan, director of Ameriranizttl Ion In the Legion, and Col. Milton J. Foreman of Chicago narrowly esca|>ed death at the same

time.

With what we like to consider the true American spirit, the people of Pueblo already are at work restoring their city after the devastating flood that swept through that [Mi.-t of Colorado. The National Guard is policing the area of destruction, whirl! eiu braces about 2IMI square miles, and hI! week supplies of food and clothing were being rushed in hy all possible menu* of conveyance. It Is not likely Ihe number of dead e»er will he kuowu accurately, but it probably reached 500. In addition to the Immense property damage in Pueblo and oilier towns, much of the crop* and the live stock in Uie flood urea was destroyed. Fears of at- epidemic due lo the ut:erly disorganized sanitation of the region were allayed by the prompt work of the medical corps. The American Red Cross luis undertaken the complete n'liahilltutlon of the floodstricken sections, and it has issued u national appeal for fund* that is meeting with the generous response always given in such Instances. The railways, of course, are carrying the relief supplies free. Tlie British troops in Upper Silesia are milking quick work of pushing the insurgent Pules hark out of the disputed region and. according to reports, they are doing it without any fighting, for Korfonty's men know resistance would he worse than useless. The French are looking on. bop ng that the Interests of the Poles, with whom they sympathize, will not suffer. Meanwhile the German defense forts**, which' are under the ronmisind of General von Hoefer, have ceased their advance in one sector, hut have kept going forward In another, taking Slnventltz, Knndrzln and Ujest after bloody fights with the Poles and approaching close to Gleiwltx, which is culled the key to industrial Upper Silesia. Grass Strehlitx, which is held by a French garrison, wa* surrounded by the Germans on three sides. After the German high court had convicted two minor defendants of cruelty to British prisoners during the war and given them Jail sentences. It took up the case of Submarine Commander Neumann, accused of sinking the British hospital ship Dover Castle. On Ids plea that he was merely obeying the order of hi* superior* he was acquitted, and consequently, it is now reported, the court Intend* to bring to trial the admiralty chief or chiefs who gave the orders to Nett tnann and the other submarine com rnnnders whose cases are pending. The nllipfl council of ambassadors has sent to Berlin a letter taking cog nlzance of the "good will of Uie German government tn Its efforts to fulfill Its undertakings under the pence treaty, nnd granting n delay until September 30 for the transformation of the Diesel sutunarine motors to civilian Industry. From Munich came the word that the Bavarian citizens' guard ha* decided to disarm voluntarily by June 30. In compliance ulritnalum of the allies. Th!.' Berlin of one great worry.
