Ireland was face to face truly with an awful prospect, which was the only safe policy for Irish members of the House of Commons. Will Nationalists any longer he fooled by the repetition of the party cry that the fact of Home Rule being upon the Statute Book makes the Irish masters of the situation, and that Ireland after the war will find the Irish Parliament opened ?
