The dele gation of prominent American citizens of Irish descent appointed at the recent Irish race convention in Philadelphia won its fighttoday for action by the house rules committee to give right of way in congress to a resolution in fitruclng the American delegates at 3'aris to urge .Ireland's cause before the peace conference. After hearing the delegation, which was headed by Justice John V. tioff and Daniel Cohalon of New York, the rules committee agreed to report out a rule making the resolution in order in the house before adjournment. Later the delegation, which arrived in Washington Tuesday, called at the White House to see President Wilson and personally present to him resolu tions and memorials adopted at the Philadelphia convention. They failed to see the president, but were told that lie would receive them in New York nest Tuesday after he speaks at the Metropolitan opera house on the league of nations. Ireldent t Accmslble. Tonight John 1. Grace, former mayor of Charleston, S. C, and a member of the delegation, gave out a statement, tayfnjr: "All during the war it was presumed that among the small nations, Amer ica was fighting to establish in se curity, was surely Ireland, to which, as Washington and the patriots of America acknowledged they owed more in the fateful hours of the revo lution than to all other powers com bined; but when the committee from the Philadelphia convention got to Washington it met with a series of for bidding difficulties. "Twenty-one men from as far west s the Pacific coast and from New Kngland and the south, solemnly left their Important affairs and arrived in Washington Tuesday night expecting an appointment at the white house on Wednesday to receive them. Wednes day passed, Thursday passed, Friday passed and practically the whole of Saturday and they have not seen the president yet. They had great diffi culty even in seeing his secretary." i'ress ltrport Is -Denied. "Meantime, the press carried reports that, at the White House dinner, he had excluded Ireland from the programme. This was speedily denied by Mr. Tu multy, but at once reaffirmed openly on the floor of the senate. "The committee went to the AVliite House "at 12 today. Received by Mr. Tumulty, it was told that the president was a very busy man. Judge (joff said that of course he knew this, but this was a tremendous issue for those in terested. Mr. Tumulty said he was as much interested in the issue as any , body. But that did not get the com - mittee anywhere. He said he had been pressing the matter to the president's attention and expected to hear from him almost any moment. Judge Goff said that we could wait no longer but that, as a matter of courtesy, the com mittee would return at 3 o'clock for a definite answer. "Meantime, Mr. Tumllty had the fact communicated to the committee that if it returned at 3 o'clock It would be in formed that the president would re ceive it. not in Wahsington, but on next Tuesday night in New York after his speech at the Metropolitan theater. The committee, nevertheless, went back at 3 o'clock to be assured in person of this fact. Committee See Delegation. "The national democratic executive committee, at its session this week, had unanimously indorsed the position of the committee, and Chairman Cummins had an earnest interview with Mr. Tu multy. showing him the gravity of failing to treat the committee with proper respect. The committee on for cign relations of the house had sup ported a resolution sympathizing with the case of Ireland, but this was held up in the committee on rules on the ground that business was too pressing for its submission to the whole house. i he committee on rules, however, gra ciously received a delegation from the Irish race convention yesterday, and after earnest argument decided , to re port out the resolution of the foreign affairs committee.
