Cornelius Lehane of Ireland will pass through Louisiana on his way from Los Angeles. He is touring America to tell the story of the Irish revolution and how James Connolly, the veteran socialist pioneer, at the head of his army in Dublin, gave battle to 38,000 capitalist troops, held the city of Dublin for a week, established a labor republic, smashed the conscription plans of the ruling class in Ireland and saved the Irish democracy from the European war. Ireland is the only country in Europe within the war zone exempted from conscription, thanks to James Connolly and his gallant army of working men who decided to die at home fighting the masters than to die abroad fighting their brothers in a foreign land.
