LONDON, 13th October.
"The Times'" correspondent at Dublin says that extremists have renewed activities against the Public Safety Bill, causing grave concern. A large quantity of arms has recently beeiv smuggled into Ireland with a view to a rebellion, which, it is feared, will be more serious than the outbreak of 1922.
The Labour leader, Mr. T. J. O'Conuell, speaking at Castlebar, appealed for an all-party conference for the purpose of creating an atmosphere of peace and order before the introduction of the Bill. The Government had no intention of delaying the measure, which would be rushed through all stages by ruthless application of the closure, and, it was expected, would become law bjr 23rd October.
