IIARCU U, 19X0. PAGE S The Week A Pinehurst The Meeting of the Pinehurst Forum held at the Country Club on Sunday evening, March 7th, was given up to the discussion of the Irish problem, var ious phases of which were presented by Captain A. Loftus Bryan, Reverend Morgan M. Sheedy, and Mr. Farley, of Baltimore. The significefit upshot of the whole evening talk was the substan tial agreement of all the speakers, re gardless of Teligious and native locality, in the soluti mommended for the pre vailing unrest in Ireland-: all advocated the establishment ef an independent Irish repubfk. Since Captain Bryan is a Protestant from the South, Father Sheedy a Cath olic from th district, and Mr. Far ley a Catholic from the Northern coun ties, it waa additionally convincing to hear from 8uah representative Irishmen that religious differences, contrary to general opinio, play no role in the Irish problem, except inwfar as the bigotry of the Protestant T71terites complicates the situation. It was alleged by each speaker that i3 per cent of all inhabi tants of Erin desire a republic, to which they axe ontitled under the Wil sonian principle of self-determination. Even the so-ealled Dominion solution, under which Ireland would be granted a position in tho British Empire similar to that of (kiuuln, Australia, New Zea land and South Africa, was viewed with disfavor by all the speakers. In spite of this fairly Universal Irish aim and the Treaty reservations recently adopted by the Senate, there is little likelihood that the present London con ference would tolerate any such frankly revolutionary applications of self-determination in any dependency of the Al lies. On March 14th, the Forum had the privilege of listening to Mrs. Burton Andrews, who spoke interestingly and told briefly of the work of. the Smith College ambulance unit with the A. E. F. Mrs. Andrews dwelt especially on her work with the French at Beauvais, her experience at Chateau Thierry in the thrilling days of the summer of 1918, when America divisions, fresh from the training sector, stemmed the German tide at the Marne, and the activities of the Smith unfit at the evacuation hos pital near Verdun later in the autumn, while the American forees were pound ing across tho woodefl hills of the Ar gonne. In Dr. Smyley and Mrs. An drews, the Forum has heard two women who doubly represented their sex in per sonal and direct' combination, both of gruelling effort and intelligent organi zation, to tto ultimate success of the Allied causo. After hearing Mrs. Andrews, the Porum returned to the eonsideration of industrial problem. Mr. A. Clinton Piatt, Master of the Pinehurst School, contributed a reasonable analysis of the present relatione between labor and cap ital, and waa followed by Mr. Carl Vrooman, fosnwrr assistant secretary of Agriculture, who discussed industrial Freedom. 14. Vjooraan. during the war had occasion to come in contact with the American business men in practically every state. On the basis of his ac quaintance with them, the speaker ex pressed his confidence in the broad mindedness with which they will eventu ally address to the solution of the pend ing economic difficulties. Mr. Vrooman emphasized that no com promise with industrial conservatism is any longer possible, and demanded a readjustment between capital and labor, in which labor shall not only share the profits, but also responsibility in the di rection and operation of enterprises. Both these meetings of the Forum were so loyally attended as to indicate a chance that the organization may be come a permanent Pinehurst institution, destined to further community spirit and the serious consideration of national questions by the local colony.
