Lloyd George's invitation caused profound sensation in Dublin. Sources 'predicting that DeValera will accept are agreed that ho prob ably, will attach sharp conditions to his acceptance, one being that more binding guarantees than were con talned in the premier's lettor must bi- given, for tho safe conduct of cer , tain other Irish leaders and that he vrould Insist upon release of repub licans now interned or Imprisoned In order that they might accompany him. it was poined out that the wording of Ihe premier's letter would make it impossible tor him to refuse such a demand. Significant Change The prime minister's letter was re garded here as indication of a re markable and significant change in the attitude of the British premier, . .- In the event-that- DeValera refuses the premier's Invitation, It Is general !y believed that the gointnent will make energetic preparations for a vigorous campaign tq'auppress Sinn Fein activities. Troops which could bo used for this pnrposo are constantly arriving In Ireland and extension of martial law to all of Ireland except Ulster is known to have been considered for some time.

Such a settle ment, however, this authority point ed out, would involve abandonment of the demand for complete lndepend eitce and might for that reason be repudiates by the extremists.

ANOTH WAR SOCIETY BASED ON MONEY All WRONG. FORTUNES STOLEN, SAYS HARVARD GRADUATE 10 REFUSES SECOND MUJON Youthful Idealist Spurns Offer of Another Fortune, Prefer ring to Live Simple Life and Allow Mother to Support Him Why Work for Money, When World Has Too Much? BUZZARD'S DAY, Mass., June 27. (Special.) "Heaven forbid tbat 1 be offored a third million," saiti Charles Garland, Harvard graduate, who has just rejected a second fortune of Jt, Ouu.TOO from the estate of an undo. "Hut if Iam I will turn It down just as emphatically as I have the other two already bequeathed mo. "A society based on money Is the wrong kind," continued the young man, who first startled a money-mad world by refusing -a fortune of f 1,000, 000 from his father's estate. "All the evils of tho world soring from the greed of private jKtssesskm front the desire of one man to have more than another. The real things, the Ideals tid ideas, cannot be bought and jiald for." Happy as Barefoot Farmer Garland today told in detail why he is happier as a barefooted, comfort able coxintry farmer than he possibly could bo if ho owned the iJank of Ens land. ilnrefooted, bis feet tanned almost black by sun and exposure, be divided his time between wedging a bolt In a handmade ronboat and cranking the engine ot a handmade traction ma chine on bis mother's magniflceut country estate here. And as ho maniimlated various levers of the traction engine with his naked feet. Garland, simple farmer and idealist, exjioundcd his reasons why he has turned down two for tunes. The first was left him by his clubman father, James A. Garland; the second by Charles Tuiien Garland, of England. His wife shares his' ideas, and Gar land Bays Bho 1b a "perfect compan ion." When he wishes to work, be snyB, Bbe dons breeches and overalls and helps him saw wood or hammer nails. When bo wants to talk she5 listens. She Is content, he asserts, lo bo a "poor man's" wife, and not han dicap her freedom by "stolen goods." For he says: Stolen Goods, He Says "If I accept a fortune I'm stealing something that doesn't belong to me. And if I give money away I'm holji ing someone receive stolen goods that will do him harm. Money novev did anyone any good. I never could do any good with money. "Men become great by following their ideals, not by following the lure of wealth. Money kills idealism. Christ preached Ibis. I am a profess ing; Christian. "If 1 have something others need I'll give It to them. And If they have something 1 need I'll take It; but not on a money basis. If I want to eat I'll plant my foodstuffs and build an engine to reap them. Then I'm pro ducing what 1 need and not robbing anyone. Daughter May Decide "When my littlo three year old daughter grows up she may accept a fortune if Bhe wishes. And she may go through tho farce of a college edu cation if she chooBes. But i sha'nt force her, and I hope her Belf-ednca-tion will show ber the futility of wealth. I sha'nt contaminate mysoll or others by receiving or giving money." And Garland la a very busy man. Sometimes he works all day. Some times he just sits in the garden and thinks. Mother Supports Him While he declines to accept tho for tune left him by his father he is living on the bounty of his mother, now Mrs. Swinburne Haie. He frankly admitted to his interviowor that with his wife and infant daughter he had depended ail winter on his mother for support. All the while the money which Gar land refused Is guarded by tho truster. accumulating lor the benefit of the baby daughter, who might now, but for her father's ideas, have many nurses, many toys and a rich nursery Instead of a simple farm-house crlli. "My present desires are simple," he added. "f haven't any money lit my pocket and don't want any." 'Do you believe that your labor on the farm has repaid your mother for what she has spent on yot?" Garland was asked. This is hiB reply; Has Produced Hl Share "No, I don't figure anything of the kind. feel sure my productive efforts for my mother haven't been enual to what my family and I have consumed. I have worked some of the time on a farm which & man leases from my mother. That labor hasn't brought her anything.
