IRISH FUTURE IN EMPIRE
UNITED PARTY’S PLATFORM
SETTLEMENT WITH BRITAIN REUNION OF ALL IRELAND O’DUFFY AGAIN PRESIDENT By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. Dublin, Feb. 8. Many Blue Shirts were included among 1500 delegates to the first convention of the United Ireland Party at Mansion House. The policy embodies the voluntary reunion of Ireland in an independent state as a free and equal partner of the British Commonwealth without abatement of Irish sovereignty, the reopening with Britain and Ulster of the partition question as an obstacle to partnership, and advantageously negotiating a settlement of the Anglo-Irish financial dispute, also a trade treaty securing most favourable terms for Irish goods.
General O’Duffy was elected president. He extolled the unity and declared that de Valera was not courageous enough to remain in office and go out of the Commonwealth decently.
