LONDON, April 3.
Sir Hamar Greenwood, interviewed, said: "Being a Canadian home ruler, and born in a home rule country, my appointment to the Irish secretaryship is a sign of the government's earnest desire to settle the Irish question along home rule lines once for all,
The government believes and all the cables already show that the choice of a Canadian was enthusiastically received in the empire. It will also be a sign to every American of the government's real desire to bring order and prosperity to Ireland." Sir H. Greenwood concluded by emphasiz ing his wish to see the Irish-question settled.
