REMOVAL OATH TEXT or THE BILL. (United Breen Assn —By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) LONDON, April 23. The text of Devalera’s Removal Oath Bill is issued. The second clause reads:— “Section two of the constitution i» hereby repealed.” This is the section which gives force of law to the treaty. The Morning Post’s Dublin correspondent understands that de Valera’s decision, thus to repudiate the whole treaty, was reached after a warning by legal advisers that if section two was not repealed, there was danger of the Oath Bill being challenged in the Courts on the ground that it was repugnant to the Treaty, consequently void.
