Irish Government Takes Up Challenge. Will Govern and Not Be Governed. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copj-riaht United Service. (Received November 29, 9.30 a.m.) LONDON, November 28. The “ Daily Mail’s ” Dublin correspondent says: “ Public ! opinion that the Free Staters are not anxious to capture de Valera is not supported in official quarters. The Government’s viewpoint, as expressed by a prominent member of Cabinet, is that there can \ he no distinction in treatment between the lowest and the highest. | ‘We are determined to govern and not to be governed,’ he said. “ De Valera may have been allowed to slip through previousj ly,” the correspondent adds, “ But to-day the situation is different. | By public proclamation he has announced the re-formaticn of ! an Irish Republic, with himself as President. This is a direct t challenge to the Government, and cannot be ignored.”
