SINN FEIN’S WAR RECORD.
AN OUTSPOKEN AMERICAN. OUR IMPLACABLE ENEMY. Vancouver, Jan. 25. A message from Boston, Massachusetts, states that Admiral W. S. Sims, in a speech at a Loyal Coalition meeting, declared that it was inconceivable the United States citizens of Irish nationality could support the Sinn Fein. “Knowing what they do about them,” he said, "ho,w any American of Irish descent can support the party that was our implacable enemy during the war passes my understanding. Many of your sons are at the bottom of the sea because we were obliged to .divert vessels to which we could not give adequate protection. The Germans fought openly. They fought with submarines under water, but that was the way to fight with submarines. The Sinn Fein was fighting just as bitterly behind) our backs. He concluded that a permanent understanding between Britain and the United States would ievitably result in peace and goodwill throughout the world.
