The cause of the Irish republic was
presented as the caue of democrat y for
nil the world by the Itev. Norman
Thomas
"President Wilson." the speaker said,
"did not ask us for a victor, of HritHi
or any other imperialism over German
imperialism, but for a vi lory of demoe
racy over imperialism. And we are de
feated, no matter how much Germany is
leduced. if. n a lesult of the conflict,
the rights of small nations are not
maintained and conscription is not
ended.
Against Imperialism
"Internationalism does not mean the
elimination of nationalism As potenti
ality finds its finest expression in the
familv. so nationalism would be at its
best in a community of nations. It is
not internationalism, but imperialism,
that crushes out the real life of a na
tion. AVe had supposed that the ful
fillment of our dream of victory would
mean automatically freedom for Ire
land. There i no freedom for any
without freedom for nil."
Former Congressman Donohoe was
chaiimaii of the meeting. He urged
that n large fund be sent to Ireland,
under the control of the Daal Kiranu,
to support the men nnd women who
dare anything rather thnu submit to
oppression. Subscriptions came fast
ns soon ns he made the call.
The drive will continue for ten dnys.

VICTORY LOAN QUOTA DOUBLED
GERMANTOWN WOMEN'S HOPE
Mrs. W. U. Gttrlcy, Chairman of District, Modest, While Com

town Victory Loan committer arc re

doubled their quota of SU.OflO.OOO. The
luota wns equally divided beturrti the
men's nnd the women's coinniittees. Co-
operating to n greater extent even than
in former loa'n. each committee hnH
succeeded in almost doubling its $,,
000.000 quota.
Most any of the 000 women workers
in the district would tell you their
success was due to one sweet looking
woman whose untiring effoits nnd
splendid leadership hnve Inspired them
to go fnr "over the top" in every
loan. And Mrs. W. 1!. Gurlcv. woman
chairman of the district dining the last
three lonns, would leturn the cicdit to
her women workers with the emphatic
stntement Hint they "nie simply mag
nificent : always dependable; always on
the job. with original ideas, dogged de
termination nnd endless enthusiasm."
If vou would insist on giving Mrs.
Gurley praise, she has another way of
turning the tide from personal dian
nel. '
"Any woman in the world would be
happy to work her hands off. if neces
sary, when her own sons ale in (lie

mothers sons in dangerous service for
their country and needing every cent we
could obtain, think liiivv much more I
had to work for this Inst time. Truly
it was a thanksgiving lonn. Thousand?
of mothers must hnve felt just ns I
did thrilled nnd happy thnt their sons
had done their dut.v well and were
made better anil stronger because of the
experience."
(If Mrs. (lurlev's fhe sons, three are
still oveiseas, one is with the I'nited
States shipping board in Washington
and one returned home lccently.
There are other Germnntown women
who have felt as Mis. Gurley. nnd have
woii,cn unceasingly, i-unlronteri by the
thought of their own boys in service.
