EXCLUSION OF ULSTER
VARIOUS VIEWS
(Received March 13th, 9.25 p.m.)
LONDON. March 13
The "Tablet." tho Roman Catholic weoklv says that Ireland has no uso for a coerced or conquered Ulster, which would become an Irish Alsace. It would bo impossible te control events at the end of the sexennium, and the Nationalists should make a virtue of necessity.
Mr T. P. O'Connor declares that Ireland will never consent to perpetual exclusion. The Nationalists would sooner lose the Bill and go into the wilderness for another generation. The excluded countries must automatically come under the jurisdition of the enw Parliament after the transition period.
Mr Austen Chamberlain, speaking at West Birmingham, gave Mr Asquith credit for anxiety to prevent a calamity, but he could not expect Ulster to disband her organisation and forsake the method by which alone she had been able to secure a hearing. If the scheme were passed into law, exclusion would be the main issue at future elections. Every dish would be Irish stew, and scalding hot at that.
