OPINION IN NORTH. UNION REPUDIATED. (United Press Association —By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) Received April 18, 1U.20 a.m. LONDON, April 17. Lord Craignvon (Prime Minister of Northern Ireland) denounced Mr de Valera’s neutrality decision as “most cowardly, especially in view of the extraordinary generosity of Britain regarding the Anglo-Eire Agreement. “I repudiate most strongly the suggestion that we join a country where such an attitude prevails,” continued Lord Graigavon. “They can remain neutral, but we know our duty and will amply fulfil it.”
