WEDXBSDAV, JTTXF, .21, jg.- J; r i NEW YORK, June 24. (A. V.) Mlsa Mnry MacSwiney, retuAiing to New York from a lecture tour, took occasion today to deny certain state ments that were credited to her In the press. She was particularly insistent that she had not threatened a hunger strike If arrested in thin country and that she did not say she had come into the country without a passport. "I have been quoted," said Miss MacSwiney, "as having said I would start a hunger strike if I was arrested .by United States authorities on sus picion of having entered this country irregularly. I desire to correct that statement. Such an attitude on my part would not only be unjustifiable but Immoral. "A hunger strike is a very serious matter and one not to be lightly or rashly undertaken. I shall always hunger strike against the British claim to authority in Ireland if ar rested by them or any of their ser vants. The position is quite other wise here. The United States govern ment Is the lawful government of this country and while I am a visitor hero 1 am bound to obey the laws and regulations. 1 desire to stress this point because 1 believe the report of my intention to hunger strike is just British propaganda. As I have al ready said, I shall neither hunger strike, or 'go on tho run.' If your authorities want mo they will have no difficulty In finding me. I did not give any reporter an account of any alleged visit to the Immigration authorities and I did not say to any one that I camo without a passport. I did not affirm or deny my posses sion of a passport and as I am neither lb fool nor an ignoramus it is equally untrue to say thut I did not know a passport was necessary. I made no euch statement."

The Anti-Saloon league and the As soclation Against the Prohibition Amendment, whoso goals are exactly opposite, find themselves in paradox ical agreomcnt on the shakeup In the enforcement system ordered by Assis tant Secretary Andrews of the treas ury.

We are equally confident too. that if the law cannot bo enforced which will be the case, then General Andrews will be just as straightforward In an nounefng his failure as ho has been In hfi efforts to bring about honest en forcement." The shakeup will do much to re move "spoils politics," tho association added, and It injects "common sense, good faith and sound judgment into the prohibition system. Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel of the Antl-Snloon league declared tho plan would doubtless eliminate liquor better than "under the present system, but we will, of course ask congress to put all the prohibition agents under civil service so that this policy will be fixed by statute.
