UNION LEADERS WE DE1NDS ON RAILROADS T JUSTICE FOR E MIIS Last ovcnlng at tho Whlto Pelican hotel, Ireland, tho best loved nation on earth, was the subject of n schol arly and ablo lecturo, dollverod by Rev. J. V.'Molloy. "Tho Causo ot Ireland in tho Light of Reason," wna the subject and whon Father Mol loy summed up his reasons for "Ire-,,5 land a Nation," thero was nono In tho largo audlenco who did not agro with tho eloquent orator that Ire land's right to freedom was Just and that Justice will eventually prevail. It was tho first time that Father Mol loy nppoared on a public platform slnco coming to this city and ihosa who wcro privileged to bear him recognlzo In him one of tho most bril liant orators of tho west. At times ho stirred tho audlenco almes: to a frenzy ot enthusiasm as with logic, wit and scarcasm he pleaded ,the causo of tho Emerald Isle. NotRollgloun Imuo In opening he made clear that th Irish question was not a religious question nt all, that those who spread this Idea wero neither honost nor honorable. When Catholic Belgium stood off Lutheran Germany, tho smug friends of England saw no re ligious issue then, but they affect t see ono when In the name ot Christ men protest at tho murders In Ire land. Furthermore, Emmltt, Wolf tono, Parncll, Griffith and countless others ot tho leaders never wer Catholics, and among those in pri son today Is Dr. Irwin, a Presbyter Ian minister ot Ulster. If might makes right, then Eng land's title to Ireland is clear. But, If, ns Christians, wo hold that might Is not always right, and thnt enrth ly success Is not nlways n gauge ot dlvlno approval, Albion's title may bo examined with, an cjo to Justice, tor In morals a conqueror's or a thief title to land or to property Is al ways spurious until the rightful own ers acqutesco in the transfer;. A God-Crentcd Land "Now everything that makes Den mark or Roumnnla or Servla or Bel glum a nation tn found in Ireland.' said Father Molloy. "Indeed, the es sentials ot nationality are more evi dent In tho caso ot Ireland than la 'any of theso others. They were set up by men, whllo the Irish, being a, distinct and homogenous race, at whnt they nro nnd whero they An because ot the designs ot God." The nationality ot tho msn-mada state ot Bolglum was cited as Just cause for shedding oceans of humaa blood, but tho nationality ot tho God-made Iroland Is only provoca tive. In too many unfair minds ot slander and dorlslon. Tho .Majority Decides With arch and ogre-llke pomposity, It Is said that tho Irish do not agree. Everywhoro elso the rights of ma jorities, especially when there is a question ot a man's love ot llbarty. nro looked upon as suprorae. It Ire land, In Justice, must wait for tho conplalsance ot tho tiny Orang'j mi nority, then Mr. Harding should bo lookod upon as a usurper until every rock-ribbed democrat became a re publican. America's Duty "Tho United States In this matter has a duty to Its bettor self," con tinued tho Bpeakor. "The ancestors of evory citizen here fled from mo sort ot European oppression and came hero seoklng jmlltlral or eco nomic freedom. Their children havo no right to slight th) call ot thoso who aro deprived of all that freedom holds, dear. Our govornmont was mado poislble;bocaus- Fraifo recog nized It and helped It. In return tho United Statos has nlwayj honored thoso who woro Booking Independ ence. Our record In the past Is so clear In this regard that It needs no explanation.
