LONDON, 2nd January.
The Blackbrook Council carried a motion calling on Mr. Dillon, "Mr. Joseph Devlin, and other Nationalists to reorganise the Nationalist forces.
Mr. Dillon, in replying, says that in view of the result of the last electron and the infamous character of the present Government of Ireland, he has not felt free to take a prominent part in reorganising Ireland on constitutional lines. Commenting further on the Sinn Fein policy, Mr. Dillon deplored the throwing away of their most effective weapon, an independent and united party in the House of Commons. Declaring war against the British. Empire when Ireland had no means of carrying it on in a civilised and decent fashion, he said, was. foolish in the extreme.
