Religi one aspecta of the troubles in Ireland are discussed in a report made public here today which supplements the :iO,0(M word findings of the Commission of the Committee, of One Hundred investigating - the Irish question. The supplementary report, male by the Protestant memliers of the Commission, summarizes the evi dence presented at the hearings held here ia Novemlier, December and Janu ary, as follows: 1 'Outside of a part of Ulster, Catholics and Protestants live in peace and harmony and tteif political opinions are not primarily a matter of religion. 2. ''Even in Ulster religions bigotry it not by any means wholly spontaneous, but is artificially stirred up Jy those whose economic and political interests are- served by dividing the people. 3.

Nor rig of Nebraska and Be. Norman Thomas of New York. "No i examination of the Irish situa tion, can ignore the religious issue, ' ' says the report. "It emed peculiarly ap propriate that the Protestant members should deal with the subject in view of the overwhelming predominance of Rom an. Catholic in Ireland, and the chnrge sometimes heard in Protestant circles that Bepublican sentiment has its chief origin-, in ecclesiastical agitation.

' ' '"Am in ifie case of the major report the tcatinVny of witnesses taken liefore this r commiftee wa made public at the time . it was given. Referring to the Belfast disorders be ginning July 21, 1920 in which by the end of August, 50 persona wero killed, the commission observed that "these riots between Protestants and Catholics in which Protestants wero the aggressors partook of the character of Russian pog rom against the Jews." One; of the witnesses, Mrs. Annot Boblnson, the report said, declared that . in October 1920 she visited Ulster and found that "more than 20,000 expelled workers and their families were exist ing on relief." Some of them, the re port said, were expelled not only from their jobs but from their homes. The victims, it continued were predominantly Catholic, though among them were Prot ectants suspected of "labor, socialist or Sinn -Fein sympathies." The killing of District Commissioner 1 Smyth, in Cork, the election of 25 men wfio '.'were not Orangemen" to the Bel- , fast City Council, whose toUl memlwr-aliip-ie 50; the alleged expuhtion of Hungary, remonstrated against hit pres ence in that country, yet Premier Toleky found him a few hours later fleeing to ward the hortlnr and taking refuge in the palace of Bishop Mikes In Steinn manger, later praying that he lie given shelter. LOOKING TO OPENING PEACE NEGOTIATIONS BELFAST, March 31. Cardinal Logue, primate of- Ireland wat- inter viewed Tuesday ly Sir William Doubling and three other southern Irish unionists, with the object, it is understood, of se curing the opening of peacen egotintiona between the Irish republican parliament nnd the British government. The inter view took place at Diimlalk, county Louth. Sir William Oonlding is a prominent j Irish railway man, a resident of Dublin. He is chairman of the Great Southern! and Western Ralway of Ireland, and of j the Irish Railway Clearing Houso. He I was a member of the Irish convention o&j K'17-IH and is a former high sheriff of the county of Dublin. i Progressive. Charlotte Observer. j Catch Cast on ia in any but the fore- j most class!

Certain - Bianufaetorers and unionist politicians, '., it was alleged, had taken alarm at the solidarity of labor, Protestant ami Cath olic, shown in the great shipyard strike "of 1919." A large Belfast manufacturer was quoted as having said: ; T "I know and all the mui u fa e hirers in ... this city know, that the trouble is not a religious trouble except ns it has been . -fostered by them to serve their political and their economic interests. I "warned; them a long time ago that they .. were rousing up a monster they could not control and which some day might turn ' upon them." Politicians and manufne- -, turera, opposed to Sinn Fein, the com mission, says it found, hav had "the , aid, of a large section of the press and of the clergy." Aa regards the rest of Ireland out aide the region immediately about Bel fast the Commission saya it was "im pressed by the evidence of lack of any '- religious strife." It also charged that ; Sir Edward Carson, former leader in Ulster; "would teem to hare accepted . a Hone Rale Act which gives his party practically what they want in Ulster at the price of delivering over the Protes- taat minority in the rest of Ireland to the majority, role of their Catholic - neighbors. " ; The report continued : "In Ireland - there was according to the census of 191 14 1,147.594 on -Catholics ss against 342.TO Catholics." Of these non Catholics 890.8M (as compared , with 690.S0O Catholics) are .in Ulster, leaving 256,714 non -Cat holies (as eom pared with 2,661,754 Catholics) in all !
