UNITED IRELAND IDEAL
CANNOT BE ACHIEVED BY FORCE MR DE VALERA’S SPEECH 'U P A -Bv Electric Telegraph—Copyright’ (Received 26th November, 10.25 a.in.) LONDON, 25th November. Mr rle Valera, in a speech at the Fianna Fail Conference, said that the immediate problem was not how to declare a republic, which could be done to-morrow, but how to extend the existing institution of Government to Northern Ireland. There could be no question of force against the north, because the ideal was unachievable by force. If Britain withdrew her subsidies and troops from the northern counties, natural influences would do the rest.
