LONDON. April 20. The grave and
menacing situation created by the de
termination of Nationalist Ireland,
united as seldom befcre, to resist con
scription has aroused deep Interest
throughout Great Britain.
Particular emphasis is laid on the
declaration of ths Soman Catholic
hierarchy to throw In its lot with the
Sinn Feiners. who have openly pro
claimed Germany aa their ally.
The bishops have not counseled vio
lence, urging passive resistance, but

might easily be turned into active re
sistance by a lew hot heads when the
time comes to conscription the young
men of the country.
Tbe pledge which is to be admin
istered Sunday to what authorities es
timate at nine-tenths of the entire
Catholic population of the country bids
them to "resist conscription by the
most effective mesns at their dis
posal."
Wide Latitude Allowed.
This gives wide latitude and pleases
the advocates of both passive and
active resistance.
The delicacy of the situation is rec
ognized by the Irish Times, hitherto in
favor of conscription, which advises
the government and the Irish leaders
to "escape from the truly miserable
position" by organising a great vol
untary recruiting campaign. This, the
newspaper believes, would make the
enforcement of conscription unneces
sary.
The Dally News advises the govern
ment to "drop altogether the attempt
to pursue this Irish adventure."
The Chronicle believes conscription
will not be attempted until ome rule
Is an accomplished fact, and that then
the Irish Parliament will be lelt to
raise men for the army in what pro
portions and by what means It pleases.
DUBLIN. April 20. (By the Associ
ated Press.) Fifty-five members of
tbe Irish party met here today and.
1th John Dillon presiding, unani
mously adopted a resolution that
"In the present crisis we are of the
opinion tbat the highest and most Im
mediate duty of the members of this
party Is to remain In Ireland and ac
tively co-operate with our constituents
in opposing the enforcement of the
compulsory military service in Ireland.
Act of Tyranny Alleged.
"The enforcement of compulsory mill
tary service on a nation without as
sent constitutes one of tbe most brutal
acts of tyranny- and oppression of
which any government can be guilty.
"The present proposal of the Lloyd
George government to enforce conscrlp
tion in Ireland is an outrage and a
gross violation of tbe national rights
of Ireland.
In conclusion the resolutions pledge
the party's Influence and power to. de
feat conscription.
Fifteen hundred delegates of trades
unions, meeting at Mansion House to
day, pledged resistance to conscription
and fixed next Tuesday as the day for
the stoppage of all work as a sign of
this resolve and to enable all workers
to sign the pledge of resistance.
