Want Peace Delegate* Instructed to Demand National Freedom for the Emerald Island. -Washington, Dec. 13.—Ireland’s plea for a share of the attention to be given the small nations of the world at the peace conference at Versailles was made before the house committee on foreign affairs at a hearing on the Gallagher resolution instructing the peace delegates from the United States to insist upon the right of Ireland to self-determination of its political future.

McCabe, president of De Paul university of Chicago, asserting that the, Chicago committee of 100, representing all the Irish societies of the city, indorsed the resolution, said: “The Irish people are simply demanding for themselves what they have fought to secure for others. We as a people have sacrificed treasure, life ana have endured suffering and anxiety in order that small nations may no longer be tyrannized over. Our whole work will be thrown to the winds if self-government for Ireland is not written on the statute books.” Former Congressman George E. Gorman of Chicago told the committee of widespread sentiment throughout the country for the cause of Irish freedom.
