IRISH TANGLE

LABOUR MISSION AMAZED AT HOPE-

LESS POSITION

UNCOMPROMISING STAND "ALL OR NOTHING",

THE DUAL PARLIAMENT SCHEME

By Telegraph-Press AESociatton-Copyrlghl

London, January 26. Tho Dublin correspondent of the "Daily Express" says the British Labour Mission is amazed at the hopeless tangle prevailing in Ireland. It met Mr. Griffiths, the acting-president of the Sinn Fein Republic, and several members of his so-called Cabinet, and also interviewer! southern Unionists, Nationalists, and j'nwwritaj. and learned from all sides chat the issue is uncompromisingly "all or nothing." There must either be union, backed by the fullest military force, or complete Republican independence. Iho Mission regards cither solution as impossible. Tho Labour Party certainly will not take up Republicanism, but it is inclined to think that Mr. Uovd George's scheme for a dual Parliament, is only a waste of time. The Mission will probably advocate a wide schemo ot Homo Rule on the lines of tho Dominions.' with county option, coupled with an ambitious.plan of industrial revival. —Aus.-N.Z. Gable Assn.
