In the face of this movement the

Conditions to Ireland Are
(Crowing Worse.
LONDON. April 22.—The possibil-
ity that all Ireland will be Idle soon
is becoming greater hourly as the
result of what may be called a dead-
lock In the strike In Limerick
against Use British Government. Be-
sieged Limerick has now become the
battle area for organised workers,
whose leaders assert that unless the
siege of Limerick is raised and her
people are permitted to come and go
without military permits, there will
be a complete paralysis of Industry
in the south and most of Ireland.
Limerick has been proclaimed a
military area for a week, and for
that week It has also lived under
Irish rule. Behind the governing So-
viet is seen the Inspiration of the
Sinn Fein and this renders the de-
velopments In Limerick of even
greater importance.
For it Is believed that It the para-
lysis of the country becomes reality
there will be established numerotR
local Soviets, thus chief links of the
chain being the chief factors of the
Sinn Fein. '
No one is underestimating the,cer-
lousaess of the Immediate situation
or its; future p sibllitles. British
soldiers with axed bayonets and
equipped with tante and barbed wire,
have not been called on so far by the
residents of Limerick or by employ-
ers there for protection from the So-
viets' rulings. A Arlke committee
has had a week's term of office and
Is nod pointing out how successfully
it has managed the distribution of
foodstuffs. which are fast being de-
pleted, and at lower prices. 1t points
to the lack of disorder under the So -
viers regime which Is asking itself,
"If this can be done in Limerick,
why not elsewhere. 1f there is a na-
tional strike?" 1t savors of well -
thought -out plea of the Sinn Fein
leaders. Early In the week the strike
committee might have been willing
to listen to promises of modifications
of the military measures, but not
now. A proposal to modify the rb-
strlctions on the movement of work-
ers offered by the British general In
charge of this district, has fall on
deaf ears.

How to Judge Values
WHEN you select a type of shoe which pleases you, you
will probably find that it is made in different grades
and different leathers selling at different prices. But if the
shoe is stamped with a maker's name which you know, you
may be sure of good value for your money no matter what
grade you decide upon.
Go to a dealer in whom you have confidence, and look for the manufac-
turer's trade mark on the shoes you buy. The dealer's advice and judgment
will be of great assistance to'you, and he will see that the shoes you select
are properly fitted, so that you will get full service value from them. The
manufacturer's trade mark is your best assurance of high quality in material
and workmanship, for the manufacturer's business reputation is behind it.
Our booklet "How to Buy Shoes" will be sent with our compliments to
any address in Canada, upon request to our head office at Montreal.
