PARTITION OF IRELAND
TALK OF FIGHTING BY EIRE POLITICIANS (Rec. 10 p.m.) LONDON. Feb. 21. “If constitutional means fail to abolish the partition between Eire and Northern Ireland we will have to do what past generations did —go out and fight for the abolition of the border,” said Mr Neal Blaney, member for East Donegal in the Eire Parliament. A Fianna Fail party member, Mr Patrick McGill, said that the men and women of his party would take their places in the fighting line to restore "the lost six counties” when it became necessary.
