The Daily News, a leading British daily, of January 4th, 1921, carried a signed article by one of the most prominent editors of Great Britain, Robert Lynd :

“ England is now ruling Ireland in the spirit of the torturer. How many Englishmen realise that the bloodhound and the thong are in use in Ireland as they were in the Slave States of America ? I was taught that under the Union Jack all men were free and that the deliberate infliction of physical and mental torture on men, women and children was under that sign impossible. But human nature is much the same everywhere and the Irishman ‘ on the run ’ to-day is in some respects in a worse plight than the negro slave.
