THE IRISH PROBLEM.
4TJS' r *IAU-*.N AND N.Z. CATILE ASSOCIATION. SURRENDERS OF REBELS. All N'T ST HR ON THE SITUATION. LONDON February 25. Air W. T. Cosgrave, writing to Pierce, a rebel leader who surrendered in Kcitv, says he is confident that, "by a manly facing of the situation most of the happenings of the last few months can lie forgotten.” Tin's is regarded as a fresh appeal to the 1 r regulars.
Air Kevin o‘Higgins, Minister for Home Affairs, says: “For the first time Irregulars have surrendered on a challenge from Free State troops. Nevertheless every day sees cowardly assaults upon defenceless civilians. Eight thousand young fools, male and female, have been rushed into criminal outrages. Boys and girls iii their ’teens, utterly incapable of forming an opinion on the conflicting issues, have been rushed into this holocaust to gratify one man’s vanity and one woman’s hysterical egotism.”
