IRELAND.
UNREST AND OUTRAGES, SINN FEINISM MUST BB SUPPRESSED. ;„ , MINISTER'S STRAIGHT TALK. Received April 5, 1.10 a.m. London, April 4. Mr. J. I. Macpher3on (Parliamentary Secretary to the War Office) stated in the House of Commons that political unrest in Ireland was unabated, accompanied by the cruellest outrages. He was determined to support the Constabulary and military to protect lawabiding citizens against the terrorists and assassins, from whom one of the most prosperous countries in the world must be freed. Sinn Feinism menaced progress, alienated sympathy, produced and maintained a deadlock, stifled industries and social development. The application of self-determination would mean the establishment of a Sinn Fein republic in the rankest form. Present conditions prevented the Government from exploring all the practical paths in order to secure a generous settlement of the problems which were never more pressing.— Aus. and N.Z. Cable Assoc.
