WHAT IRELAND NEEDS

DOMINION HOME RULE. Mr Evelyn Wrench, the organiser of the Overseas Club, contributes hi.s vkw of the Irish problem in a letter to the Times, in which he says : “To-day, outside of Ulster, practically all Young Ireland is Sinn Fein, and peopie who before the Convention were con- ; stitutional Nationalists are to-day out-and- i out Sinn Feiners. The nearer to Dominion ; Home Rule that the Government's proposals can be brought the greater their chance of success. By Dominion Home ; Rule I mean the form of Government ex- : isting in Canada, Australia, South Africa, j New Zealand and Newfoundland. The I hie.-, of Steeping 52 Irish members at Westminster will please no one, and will only ! lead to much friction, so the sooner the ; Government realise this fundamental fact ; the better.” • Mr William Coot-e. M.P., speaking at I New York on a recent occasion, thus expounded the English sentiment : —"Please ; God, Ireland will never be separated from Great Britain. There will never be a Heligoland in the Atlantic Ocean to sink transports bringing your boys to France if , it is ever necessary to save that country i again.”
