FREE STATE REPLY TO LLOYD GEORGE. SIR JAMES CRAIG UNMOVED. BY CABLE—PBESB ASSOCIATION—COPYBIGHT. LONDON, Sept. 11. The Free State Boundary Bureau, replying to Mr Lloyd George’s speech, claims that the present boundary cuts off 430,000 Nationalists from the Government of their choice. It adds: “The commission will provide an opportunity for meeting their wishes in the districts in which they are in a majority, whether by parishes or more convenient areas.”
Sir James Craig, in an interview, declaited that Lord Birkenhead’s letter . made nq difference whatever to his attitude in regard to appointing a boundary commissioner, which would deprive them of the right of appeal agaipst any decision the boundary commissioner, if ever set up. might formulate.
[Mr Lloyd George, speaking at Penmaenmawr, said that Lord Birkenhead’s letter contains the only responsible interpretation of clause 12. “I stand by the letter.”]
