RID OF PRIVY COUNCIL
FREE STATE GOVERNMENT DETERMINED “RIGHT OF APPEAL DEAD” LONDON, Thursday. The Dublin correspondent of "The Times” says Mr. Ernest Blythe, Minister of Finance, in a speech in the Free State Senate, declared that the Free State Government was determined to get rid of appeals to the Privy Council, which were anomalous in the present state of development of the British Commonwealth. The right to appeal was dead, and it only remained for the British Government to give it decent burial. If further appeals were takeu from the Free State to the Privy Council no Free State representative would attend, and if the- Privy Council should reverse a decision of the Free State Supreme Court, the Free State Government would take whatever steps might be necessary to nullify the Privy Council’s decision.
