The Polish Government in turn win defended against the pogrom charges fby Representative Kleczkn. of "Wiscon sin, who asserted the reports of massa cres were of "German origin, designed to show that Poland was incnpible of self-government." The Poles in this country, he asserted, courted an inves tigation of their native land. Frank L. Phillips, assistant secretary of state, appeared before the committee to present a report received by the Stats Department from Hugh Oition, the new American minister tn Toland The report said house-to-house fighting occurred in Vilna May 5. but that Ger man press accounts of it were" said to be exaggerated.

Vnrtbuked, Sajs Sicgel "We did not go into this var to help set up goenments that will tolerate open murder." Mr. Siegel told the com mittee, after reading numerous news paper reports of the alleged pogroms in Poland, Rumania and Galicia. "Were these acts committed by law less bands or authorized bv the go em inent?" Mr. Siegel was asked. "They are being committed by the established military authority," he an swered, "and the gov eminent has not said a single word that any one has been punished for theBe acts." F WORLD AT PARIS SAYS RYAN Educato Nation to Dangers of League, Phlladelphian Asks Irish Here FEARS BRITISH DOMINATION 1 ft. HH EK 2 ;f. 16 4v a; it- ffKSJft w KK New York, June 3 Dcclarfng that the "blizzards of the world arc gathered at Paris," Michael .1. Ryan, of Phila delphia, leturnid delegate of the 'Irish nice in America" to the Pence Con ference, sounded a 'all to the millions of Irishmen in the country to "educate our fellow Americans to the dan ger" in the United States "binding herself to England in the league of nations." Mr. Rjan was addressing a meeting here of the victory fund committee of the Friends of Irish Freedom last night, haing returned ahead of Frank P. .Walsh and former Gocrnor Edward P. Diintie, of Illinois, to report on the failure of Irish -Americans to obtain admittance to the Peace Conference of representatives of the "Irish republic." "The world is being petitioned off," Mr. Ryan declared. "The huguc of nations cocnunt is an iniquitous thing for America. Today the danger is up palling for this couutrj to stand b Fngland if Australia wishes nnd she will wish If the great Dominion to the north of us wishes nnd she will wish to sexer the bonds which bind her to England. People in New York know ns much about the drafting of the league of nations as all but fix petrous in nil France The covenant of the league was dictated by ho men The statement of open covenants openh arrived nt has fillen into the discard, 'lhe fourteen points not only hnc been blunted, but hae altogether disappeared The leugue of nations, in mv humble judgment, is devised for the preberutiou focr of the Ilritish empire. "As it stands todav, as an American, I do not beliee this grett nation should tie itself up with nations nnd peoples with which it has nothing in common, and I should neer consent to giving up my bois to die in a war in which tills country has no interest. "I pray the coenant of the league of nations shall be defeated In this government. Let us educate our fellow Amcricins let there be no binding of us to England." Asserting that "if England would but withdiaw her nrmy of 111,000 sol diers," Ireland was prepared to govern herself properly. Mr. It) an suggested that there could be "no finer thing" than to hac healthy New Yorkers buy ships from the United States Shipping Hoard and send them to the "Iiish Re public" with supplies, bringing the ves sels back with products of Ireland "and help open up trade with the new republic."

Despite the ninety thousand miles "Caddie" traveled while overseas and the valiant service rendered to the Marines, its day of rest and retirement has not come. It is now on duty in Phila delphia attracting attention to the need for men in the U. S. Marine Corps, whose motto, "Semper Fidelis," it has exempli fied to the letter. All of which means that the Cadillac touring car, 1917 model, bearing the registry "U. S. 1126" and proudly displaying three service chevrons, a wound stripe and the honored scars of battle, has been" shipped back to the United States after being in con tinuous service in the thickest of the fighting, and is now being used for exhibition purposes by Marine Corps recruiters in Phila delphia. x , . "U. S. 1126" was the first auto mobile to be landed with the American forces, going over with the- Fifth Regiment of Marines in the De Kalb and arriving June 28, 1917. It was returned to this country recently on the same transport that carried Brig adier General Logan Feland, commander of the Fifth Marine Regiment, who is extremely proud of the car and its per formance. General Feland explained that the "U. S. 1126," while in France, responded to every roll call, never was A, W. O. L. and never went to sick, bayf except for one day, when a German shell landed a few yards away and thirty-seven shell fragments struck the car from stem to stern. The shell damaged only the body, and the next day the Cadillac was again in service, transporting the regi mental commander to all parts of the battle line. No attempt was made to repair the' damage, and the car todav represents an inspir ing reminder of ,the dangers through which the Fifth Marines' officers, and men passed. Absent Without Leave, fRepair Shop, Wherever the Fifth' Marines .went, there the "U. S. 1126" went, too. The regiment changed com manding officers three times, but the car remained with the regi ment, being used successively by Brigadier Generals Charles A. Doyen (now deceased), "W. C. Neville and Logan Feland, who were commanders of the regi ment in turn. From the Chateau Thierry sec tor it was driven to the Soissons area, then to the St. Mihiel drive, then to the Champagne front, winding up the fighting in the roadless Argonne - Meuse dis trict and, at last, carrying officers into the Rhineland for the Army of Occupation. The Cadillac was driven by Sgt. George Damewood, whose moth er, Mrs. Emma Damewood, lives at Little York, 111., Sgt. Dame wood estimates the distance cov ered by the car as 90,000 miles, and asserts that no matter how bad the roads or how roadless was the territory to be cohered, "U. S. 1126" always went through, He says that he experi enced less engine trouble on these wartime journeys than he had in the old davs when he was a chauffeur in this country. . Official records indicate that the chauffeur was as trustworthy as was the.Cadillac. General Orders No. 53 of the -Second Division, under date of September 12, 1918, contain the citation of Sergeant Damewood for distinguished service in carrying messages and assisting wounded officers and men during the capture of Vierzy in July. W Sgt. Damewood and pthermen of the Fifth Regimenttiisplayed an unusual affection for tlie Cadillac veteran of many battles. After they had settled down in Ger many, the men requested and ob tained permission to deqorate the car. Three gold service chevrons were painted on the cowl to the left of the driver and one gold wound stripe on the cowl to the right. Philadelphia'recruiters now Using the car have, asked permission to inscribe on its sides the motto of the Corps : "Ever Faithful." "Caddie" will be on exhibition all this week in the showroom of the Autombbile Sales Corporation, 142 North Broad Street. A representa tlvc from the United States Marine Corps Recruiting Headquarters, 1409 Arch Street, will be in attendance. ft. " ' i bii rioor )& HQMC OF.
