A POOR EXCHANGE
REPUBLIC FOR CITIZENSHIP
{United Press Association—By Electru: Telegraph.—Copyright.)
(Received this day at 10.15 a.m.) LONDON, March 19
Apropos of Sir Neville Chamberlain’s speech, the “Morning Post” reminds Ireland that it is a mistake to presume too far on the yielding nature of the British people whose concessions for the sake of peace are regarded merely as signs of weakness.
i The Statute of Westminster, as we predicted, when it was foolishly pass-, ed, encouraged disruptive forces. Ireland’s interest, however, lies in tn« free British market, which, henceforth, is reserved for members of the Empire. The Ere© State cannot have it hot!: ways. If she repudiates her allegiance and obligations, Britain will show just and severe resentment. The Free State might then find to her hitter regret. thal^STpetty''republic oh' the skirts of Europe is a poor exchange for citizenship in the Empire.
