The icliowing resolution was carried at a reoent meeting of the Self-Determinatirm League, and a copy was forwarded to the firm concerned:Resolved: "On behalf of the members of the Self -Determination League we desire to enter a strong and emphatic protest against the action of Nicholeans Ltd., in requiring from Rev. Father Lockington, S.J., an assurance that nothing disloyal would be expressed in his recent lectures, and we regard such action as a grattitioqs and dliberate insult to a distingueshed visitor of world-wide fame, who though not of Irish birth of descent, has learned to appreciate Irish character awl, sentiment." Two months ago an invitation from Mr. Da Valera was extended to the principal executive officers 'of the State Ccuncils of the Self -Determination Leagues of Australia to attend a world conference of the Irish race, to be held in Dublin if the war was happily over, or at Paris if the war The invitation was iswas still on. sued by the Department of Foreign Affairs-. of which Mr. Arthur O'Brien is under-secretary, and representative friends of Ireland outside her shores are asked to assemble at one centre to es cr-t in bringing-to a., dose this age -long struggle. The conference will meet on January 21st, 1922, the second anniversary of Ireland's declaration of independence. The national executive has called for nominations from the State Council, and in response to that request the- West Australian section nominated a delegate at a recent meeting.

Thomas Whelan (Boulder) Branch. The president, Mr. R. D. Lane, occupied the chair at the last meeting of the above branch. There was a splendid attendance present. Several new members were announced as the result Organiser Miss B. O'Connor's efforts. Arrangements were completed re the ceneert, under the auspices of the branch, to he held in the Theatre Royal, Boulder, on Friday, the 21st inst. A good programme has been arranged and a successful evening is

anticipated A Inotien of sympathy to Mrs. Ross in her want sad bereavement was carried, all members rising in their places the w7.3lcs The meetings of late continue to be well at,a1.6ed, ani the membership is ever-increasing. The branch must now tee e almost the largest membership in the State. For scene time past after business being eispqensed with, the branch takes form of an Irish Republican Parliament. The president, Mr. R. D. Leas, was commissioned by the meeting to act as Premier and form a Cah'nct to expound their policy and introduce laws in accordance therewith. This has been done, and the Government is as follows:-.4Prensier and Attorney -General, Mr. R. n. Lane; Minister for Peace, Mr. Mat. Fitzgerald: Minister for Education, Mr. J. Cawley: t:easurer, Mr. M. J. McCarthy; Minis sr for Industry and Agriculture, Mr. C. Graham. Mr. Alf.

As education is the great asset cl the country no stone would be left untamed by the Government to have the best education system in the world. Commissary Kenneally was entirely opposed to the proposals. The capitalist government had charge of the education machine, and as a consequence the workingman's child would be doped with the "right" kind of education as formerly. They would like to see the curriculum the Government intended to lay down in its measure. The framers of that curriculum were in the pay of the capitalist covernment, and in consequence it was of no use to the worker. The Treasurer upheld the measure, and characterised it as a long-felt want. There would be no distinctions and no favours. The oppositions were trying to pull down the structure. but were unable to offer anything substantial to put in its place. There were plenty of funds in band for the scheme. Correalissary McCarthy stated that he }lateen to Liberty Hall, and had bee-OP ; conference with the teachers, who were under his jurisdiction in Soviet. The se me was unthe I satisfactory to them. They had no opportunity of reviewing the curriculum. It was the work of hirelings of tle g:.vernment The scheme was unworkable The compulsory provision was only a snare because the government would at a certain age by economie pressure force the workingman'e son into the industrial arena. The sons of the rich could complete their education at their leisure. There was a complaint that the speeches were ne, uttered is Gaelic. If the Bill was not withdrawn he would call a strike th the teachers. The -elierster fa: Peace characterised the Opposition as all nonsense. Theywere preaching their glorious ideas. for only idealistic tripe it all was. There could be no socialistic state as pointed out by, their opponents. Past exper:ence together with history, had taught them the futility of it all. The educetien proposal., were unworkable. The f,' Vet innent based on religious principle: would do more for the per pie than the irresponsible Soviets. Here a rift in the proceedings took place Both the Premier and Commissar! Callinan came into collision with the Deputy Speaker (Mr. Jack

Heated passages took piece, but the Speaker was adamant; he listened to. the claims of both eides, besides allowing several points of order. Being overruled on a point of order, Commissary Ken neatly left the chamber. Finally he ruled teat "Comrade" Callinan should have the right to close the debate. The Soviet chief denounced the Education Act as worthless to the worker. It was the same old gag of platitude and fetters. They would not allow their children to be "chloroformed" by the teachings of the capitalist. The workers must make their own laws, and reti their education on communist lines. Me was sorry to hear the Minister for Peace condemn communism. The Minister claimed to be a Christian. These men and their legions of followers were -ignorant of. the funOameetals of ChristianIty. The time was epe for Soviet government, as the preseet maladministration was a horrible failure. We had fought to rid Ireland of a foreign oppressor only to establish his twin brother.

Terence McSwiney (Mt. Lawley-Nth. Perth) Branch. The usual meeting of the above branch was held in the Parish Hall, Highgate on Thursday, October 13, at 8 pm. President Mr. Jas. O'Callaggan in the chair. The speaker for the evening, Mr. W. L. Jones, being present. The minutes of the previous meeting were read and confirmed on the motion of Miss E. Barry, seconded by Mr. F. J. Darcey. During the meeting the president rose to take exception to certain remarks in the report of the last meeting on the grounds that they effected him personally, and it was only after some persuasion that he agreed to retain office. However, the writer hastens to correct any such erroneous impression, and hopes that the president will accept this as an apology for anything he may have thought effected him. A letter was read from the State Secretary enclosing a copy of a letter of support and good wishes from the American Self-Determination for Ireland League, and wishing cur efforts the very best of good luck. An invitation was also extended to the officers of this branch to attend a council meeting on the following Tuesday. regret to say that only two of the officers were present at that meeting-the treasurer and the secretary. The general business was then concluded Mr. W. L. Jones then rote to address the meeting, and he opened his address by remarking that a mere sassenach like himself must come in with an apology on his lips ammo sack cloth and ashes un his head. Mr. Jones dwelt on the oppression of the Irish race for hundreds of years past, and painted in vivid language the pictures of wretched homes and creameries of the present day. He pointed out the amount of money England would lose by granting Home Rule to Ireland, and drove home the fact that she was frightened to grant independence, knowing as she dccs that the Irish race would soon become more powerful even than herself. Mr. Jones resumed his seat midst loud applause. A vote of thanks, moved by Mr. Keinen, and seconded by Mr. Doheny, was then passed by acclamation. The attention of members is drawn to a monster Irish picnic to be: held at Attadale on Sunday, 20th November. organised by the state council, which should have the support of all.

The committee is comprised of a solid phalanx. ever ready to guard against energy, and as the time is deficit fast approaching when all members and supporters will have the opportunity to prove their sincerity in a practical manner, a few preliminaries will not be out of place. As there will be only two more meetings before our Jubilee issue, if it is to be the function we anticipate, it behoves all members to obtain their passports as soon If that system be adoptas possible. ed, the committee in whose hands the arrangements are, will be able to make the function a most pleasing one.

KALGOORLIE ALL NATIONS' CARNIVAL. (From Our Currespeadente All Nations' Carnival was brought to a close on Monday nigh,. when an auction was held to dispose of the various articles left over. From a financial viewpoint the Carnival was a pronounced success, and Secretary P. J. Russell reports that the bazaar will realise the magnificent Stira of £2,000. It is universally acknowleaged that this Carnival was the ITTss successful yet held, and all concerned must be congratulated. As a result of the Fair, St. Mary's is 411,W untrammelled by debt. Popular Lady Competition. The popular lady competition was decided on Saturday evening, when Miss K. McGovern, the Children of Mary's candidate, easily defeated the other representatives. Following are the results: Miss K. McGovern. 94,613; Miss Gaynor, 59,199; Miss Kalman, 5.5,603; Miss Sheedy, 23.185; Miss Lackey, 21,601; Mrs. MacMillan, 21,498. Boxing. The junior boxing tournsunent held in connection with the Carnival, was concluded en Saturday night, when Jimmy Cairnduff defeated Kevin Moore in the under 12 division. For three rounds both boys performed finely, each showing that he pcssessed a good knowledge of the art of self-defence. Young Moore was built on much more sturdy lines than his nimble opponent, but Cairnduft's previous experience stood to him well, and he wee rightly awarded the verdict. In the under 14 division Erase.- defeated Quinn. The contest was a good clean one, with Fraser slightly ir, front et the finish. The bouts were refereed by Alec. Reid and "Kid" George, and their decisions in each case were thoroughly correct. Mrs. Dr. MacMillan, who is one of our most willing church workers, is at present on the sick list. For some months past Mrs. MacMillan had beer, organising functions in connection with the bazaar, but owing to illhealth she was reluctantly compelled to forgo her stall in the Carnival. However, as a result of her preliminary efforts, a substantial suer of money was handed to the secretary. After evening devotions on Sunday night, the parishioners of St. Mary's assembled in St. Marys Hall for the purpose of bidding farewell tc Mrs. Kelly, who is leaving Kalgoorlie for the Eastern States. Mr. P. J. Russell presided over a large and representative gathering. In presenting Mrs. Kelly with a silver salad bowl from the bazaar committee, and a silver sugar bowl from her friends in South Kalgoorlie, Father Kearin r, :narked that Mrs. Kelly had been one of the most energetic and most enthusiastic church workers. He was sorry they were losing such ars ardent worker. He hoped that when she left Kalgoorlie she would carry with Ler pleasant memories of happy associations. Father Kearin's remarks were supported by Messrs. Dillon, Russell, Boyland and Keogh. Mr. J. F. Dillon, who responded on behalf of Mrs. Kelly. said he could assure these Mrs. Kelly greatly appreciate,d their kindness in assembling there that night to do her honour. She thanked them sincerely for their gifts. which would always remind her of her friends in Kalgoorlie.
